Captain's Hearty Crew

May you have happy pirating with the Captain in 2007. He's a grand captain and you are fiesty pirates. Just remember - don't sink any captured ships; salvage them. There's good money in salvage.The Captain knows all about it. Captain Spadlow's pirates will be MUCH better than this one.

To all the Small Spadomen

Joe and Barb -Happy Pirating!

Happy New Year to all the Spados

Peace, joy, and love for the Spado Clan in 2007.

MERCIFUL HEAVENS !!!!

Internet search for health turned up this photo, to my surprise. Well, they do look healthy. Wonder what the balloons are for? If they belong to a nudist club, the one on the far left must be a newbie; he hasn't had much sun.


DO YOU SUPPOSE THEY GET RATHER SUNBURNED?

Jasper fragment

Jasper: head of Queen Tiye or Nefertiti (or Neferteri) of Egypt. Other works of Queen Tiye show her to be a lovely woman; although supposed by some scholars to have been African, her facial features do not show African heritage. Nefertiti ofcourse is reputed to have been quite beautiful, but so was Neferteri, judging by the sculptures of her. An exquisite piece of artwork. The curve of cheek and jaw, the smile wrinkle, and especialy the sharp definition of the lips is fine. I wish so much that the piece had not been broken; I would love to have seen it whole.
Many of the stoneworks of Egyptian artists were as good as any Michelangelo created.
