 Thank you, Gentleman. I don't know how much Onondaga I've crumbled before I got something half way decent to post.

 Thank you Tell and Tim. Tim, it is tough and all the pieces I had were small. I'm not used to that stuff like Jamie.

     Cool, I haven't been chipping lately.  Got a new computer, (Toshiba Lap Top) with all the bells and whistles, still getting used to it.  I'm on the old dinosaur right now.  I can get on the internet, but I can't send or receive email.  I can go back to another date, and it will work fine for a day, or maybe not, and then it comes up with error sign, and it is back to no mail.  I just haven't felt like talking to Babu, or ahkmed, to get to the problem.  I have thought about tossing it in the Inlet.  Demons don't like salt water.  Of course I would have to do the ceremonial emptying of the .45 clip into it first to let sunlight in, to weaken, and keep the demons at bay, till I could get it to the Inlet, and toss it, in the dead of night.  I could do the ceremonial dance here, before I took it for it's cleansing, and I could chant the the ceremonial words, you sorry piece of @$#!, you worthless $#@%!$!#@%!!, just wait the cold salt water hits your ^$$ !! I could repeat that a couple of times, and then take it for the final ride, to the great depths, of the Inlet.  Heh, heh, heh, drool, glazed eyes..... >:D Oh, sorry, just thinking of when I had those thoughts, somewhat recently..... ::)  Still debating what I will do with it.  Anyway, nice points.  I wonder if the points I showed you were Onondaga, or Kentucky stuff.  I can't remember where they were supposed to have come from.  What style is the Obsidian?

 I found a little like that in Pasadena. There is a BarBQ restruant in Pasadena that has a big flower bed full. ::) ;) Also on the north side of Houston on I-10 going west there is a landscape company that sells it by the truck load.

     What Eddie didn't finish in his bit about the flower bed at the Bar B que, place, is that the Flower bed "Used" to be full of it. ;D

 Thanks, Steve. You know I don't beat on hard crap that often. But that stuff became a challenge.
