Well as it turns out the one Orange Tree does not produce fruit, and I was outbid on it already so I'm letting that one go. I am Bidding on another one that is more expensive that does bear fruit! |

I am sort of torn between the two but do like the original. the face like buildings at the waterline are the old philadelphia water works which was one of the first in the usa. For years philly water was referred to as Schuylkill River Punch. There has been some restoration done to the water works and one of the buildings is now a rather pricey restaurant. The water works was built in 1812. here is a brief paragraph about it from thier site The Fairmount Water works was constructed in 1812 to pump water out of the Schuylkill River to serve the bustling City of Philadelphia. As Philadelphia rose into an industrial powerhouse, it was the first large American city to regard the delivery of safe water as a municipal responsibility. Powered by the river, pumps raised water into reservoirs high atop a nearby hill, Faire Mount. Almost from the day the waterwheels began turning, the graceful neoclassical buildings and beautiful grounds made the place an international tourist attraction renowned for melding nature and technology. |

anyone here hear about a relatively new site called, "VIMEO"? It popped up several times when I searched 'privacy video site', or some such thing. It sounds pretty good to me and I would appreciate your views. |

I am always cynical of anything supposedly "private" on any computer system. which is why anything "juicy" such as a governor's love notes to his action on the side should never be sent via email as recent events have shown. If that can be gotten by a hacker i am sure supposedly private, for whatever reasons, stored or accessible online can be hacked if the persons wanting to get the files wants to spend the time When i hosted live chats, i would sometimes look at a profile of a young user and would be suprirsed with some of the information i saw on thier profiles. For example " 9th grade soccer at zilch high in zilchville, arkansas" or other similar information that could make those who have "naughty ideas" more easily able to find them as a potential target. This seems to also be a vulenerabilty for ladies who could attract creeps or have had problems with stalkers. Information on a kids profile is much the same way as a single lady listing her name as "Ms josephine jehovahsatz" instead of as "j jehovasatz" in the phone could make her a target. Like a mobster once said, "never put anythin in writing" Sorry for this brief lecture on on line safety but i have seen the crap hit the fan to some folks in another forum and it cuased them alot of grief and we all dont need that nor do we want to see it happen to anyone here either.
