sinclair314 @sinclair314 (65) • United States 11 Jan 07

I had been working on a 3000 piece jigsaw puzzle (in the days well before the PC came along), and it had taken me a couple of months, at least, in my spare time. I had it layed out on my living room couch (a real big couch), and...

sinclair314 @sinclair314 (65) • United States 17 Jan 07
