I know you are all trying to find me the perfect gift for Christmas, and if you have a large amount of funds at your discretion I will just suggest this:
The Magna Carta! Signed after a rebellion led by Simon de Montfort against King John. This example is signed by King Edward I (who is same King Edward I (Longshanks) as seen in Braveheart, in case you cared).
Come on, it's only 20-30 million and I'd really love it.
Fine, I'd really really REALLY love it.
Posted by 10lees at December 8, 2007 06:59 PMOk seriously your a nut job.
Posted by: b at December 9, 2007 03:38 PMWell, I was going to get it for you. But now that you have ruined the surprise, I guess I will have to think of something else. Pez, maybe?
Posted by: Jessica at December 10, 2007 11:20 AMI got you something you'll like, but it is not the magna carta. Well, at least I think you'll like it.
Posted by: Lo at December 10, 2007 07:55 PMI'll get it for you - no really - a photo copy of it. :)
Love, M
A photocopy of the real thing? I'd go for that...
Is it a pez dispenser featuring Edward I or King John or Llywelyn the Great or Simon de Montfort? Because I could be down with that :-)
I neither am, nor do I own, a nut job. Ok, my cat snuggles is a nut job... I take it back...
Posted by: 10lees at December 11, 2007 09:25 AMwell now that you took me up on that - I don't think they'll let it be subjected to all that harsh light that copy machines throw at things - you know - it has to be kept in a dark room - climate controlled - I think even the glass may get too hot for it. ;)
Now I don't understand the cat comment or the nut job - is that about pecans or walnuts or peanuts??? :) Love M
King John is out... but we could do the Lion King.

Hey, he's royalty.
Posted by: Jessica at December 11, 2007 02:21 PMI always did love the Lion King!! :-)
Mom - I was mocking bran's grammer, which is a dangerous thing to do since I do not have the world's best grammer. But I figured it was fair game since she was calling me nuts :-)
Posted by: 10lees at December 12, 2007 08:07 AMSeems like I would recognise MOCKING! I usually do. But re-reading your comment to her - I didn't notice that Snuggles was the cat - so I was confused - sue me - no wait - don't! :)
How about You're a nut job! :)
Love, Mom
Ten, if you need to sue your mom, just let me know. ;)
Posted by: Jessica at December 13, 2007 08:17 AMhmmmmm..... I'll let you know!
Posted by: 10lees at December 13, 2007 09:49 PMHey - let ME know FIRST - I'm sure we can work this out w'out all .... well it's so complicated don't cha know. :)
Love you both,
Mom
