    A successful weekend of auction buying.  I'm sure pics will be forthcoming.

    In the meantime...a little tid-bit from my newest emails.

    >Ole, while not a brilliant scholar, was a gifted portrait artist. His fame grew, and, soon people from all over the country were coming to him in Minnesota for paintings and formal portraits.

    >One day while Ole was mowing the lawn, a beautiful young woman pulled up to his house in a stretch limo. She asked Ole if he would paint her in the nude. This was the first time anyone had made this request.

    >The beautiful lady said money was no object; she was willing to pay him $50,000. Not wanting to get into trouble with his wife Lena, Ole asked the lady to wait while he went in the house and conferred with his missus.

    >In a few minutes he returned and said to the lady, "Ya, shoor, you betcha. I'll paint ya in da nude, but I'll haff ta leave my socks on so I'll have a place to wipe my brushes."

    The other joke I heard this weekend:

    South Dakota had decided to build a new Zoo, but the project proved impossible.

    There wasn't enough fencing to go around Minnesota.
