a dress for the opera

opera Pictures, Images and Photos

Nicole told me tonight that she needs something to wear to the opera in Vienna. She has a class trip to Vienna in 3 weeks. They will be seeing all the sights, including the Opera. Now if you know Nicole, she is as "tom boy" as they come. She hates to dress up. She asked me to get her a nice pants suit. I looked up the Vienna Opera online. It's pretty fancy. I am afraid she has got to be pretty fancy. I think she will be more comfortable in a long gown. This way she can wear flat shoes, and no pantyhose. A pant suit is not going to cut it! So She needs a evening dress for the opera, and another one for the graduation ball next summer. Talk about your fish out of water! My poor sweetheart! She is so beautiful but she hates to dress up!

You could add vents to the side for air. If it sat inside a chicken run that you can walk into, the chickens could be safe, dry and happy. I have an extra IBC. Maybe this could be my chicken house? I bet I could even plant the outside of it with mud and grass for extra insulation and good looks.

The Opel Agilia

I think I don't want to spend the money for the VW New Beetle. It's a very cute and safe car, but cost about 17,000Euros new. I can find it for 13,000Euros (this is the most basic model) but that's more then I would want to spend. I don't really drive that much. I'm pretty cheep at heart. I need real value for my money. I keep thinking we really should take advantage of the money Germany is offering to trade old cars in for 2500Euros towards a new car. If I buy a car that's around 10,000 Euros, then the Government is actually going to pay 25% of the cost of that car. That's really a very good deal. Since I know I will need a new car in the near future, I feel I should get a new 10,000 Euro car. The Opel Agilia is around 9,900 Euros. It's got 5 doors, and room for 5. It is pretty safe, and comes with a 6 year warranty. I would not call it my dream car, but I could easily afford it. I'm trying to be wise here. There are other cars in thi
