Shakespeare Dream Interpretation Machine

The Folger Shakespeare Library has posted this fascinating online dream interpreter which is sadly no longer available. It provided a unique Renaissance-era dream interpretation. Rosemary
I',m always dreaming about building houses. That is a good thing, it signifies comfort. Hooray. 

Beautiful Interiors



I am in love with the first photo. I've been seeing it everywhere for over a month. I finally found the source.

A Few Architectural Images




A few architectural images that I found to be very pleasing. The red barn/garage is near my cottage.

Hilarious. Have a great weekend and don't let any kittens get in your wash.

Wonderful Room

I love this room filled with natural light for reading, writing, listening to music, and blogging. I'm sure the one comfortable chair, ottoman and floor lamp I would require are just out of sight. Image and quote.

"Books are the perfect entertainment: no commercials, no batteries, hours of enjoyment for each dollar spent. What I wonder is why everybody doesn’t carry a book around for those inevitable dead spots in life."

Bionic Dog | Great Story



A beloved pet bulldog has been fitted with a £10,000 bionic leg, which will help advance prosthetic techniques used to help bombing victims.

Coal, an eight-and-a-half year old dog had his left paw amputated because of cancer last year. He faced being put down because his other legs would be too weak to carry him.

But his determined owner Reg Walker, shelled out thousands of pounds to fit him with a sophisticated bionic leg, which was designed to be compatible with Coal's own tissue. Full article here. This dog now has privileges. He's the only dog who has ever been backstage at Royal Albert Hall. Didn't I tell you this was a wonderful story? I love this owner's devotion to this dog. Misty eyed me.

Gwyneth Paltrow / Chris Martin Buy 3rd House on Same Street

There goes the neighborhood. London dwellers nearby are very distressed that this power couple has purchased yet another house on the same street. They now own three in a row and the neighbors aren't at all happy. Big fences, a large pool in the garden, trees taken down so cars can be parked, endless construction; it's too much. The latest one is for staff. I wonder if Coldplay has a recording studio in one? Read more.

Diane Keaton | Great Eyeglasses

I love the horn-rimmed glasses that Diane Keaton is wearing. Try finding a pair with that classic D shape also known as Barrister glasses. It's impossible. I'm cleaning my office and now I can shred this page torn from some magazine. Scan and shred. My basket is filling up nicely for recycling tomorrow. Enjoy the upcoming weekend, Rosemary.

These are bookmarked for my consideration. How in the world do you order frames online? How do you measure? Where do you measure? Help.
