No problem, although I was quite excited until I researched it. I figured then that you must have been kidding. It would have been great!

The movie of Ragtime was terrible, though.

Thanks! I posted it up on my Deviantart page, totally forgetting that they're anal about movie stills, and it was removed from the site about 5 minutes later.

Actually, right after I sent you that message, I came home and found the little message letting me know that my package had arrived and was waiting in the post office.

I was too quick to judge the Russian.

Well, we can't win them all.

I ordered a neat-looking cigarette case on E-Bay to make a new iPod carrier, but I think I was tricked by the Russian I bought it from.

Thank you for your suggestions. I've been thinking about alternate treatments of space (like negative depiction the moon landing), and I think I may add a piece about them to my final project. At this point, I also appreciate anyone who can avoid tirade, so again, thanks.
