Another great product from Cincopa Send Files. We are getting hurricane shutters installed on the windows. Two men came to do the job. Ty hung around them, asking if they needed help. At first, I was concerned that Ty might be getting himself in the way, but the men would ask him for a nail or a bit or whatever. Ty offered [...]]]> http://thesleppys.com/blog/2011/08/04/positively/feed/ 0 http://thesleppys.com/blog/2011/06/11/check-your-chess/ http://thesleppys.com/blog/2011/06/11/check-your-chess/#comments Sat, 11 Jun 2011 13:16:08 +0000 Mom http://thesleppys.com/blog/?p=786 Cincopa video hosting solution for your website.

Another great product from Cincopa Send Files. David and Jonothan, Cima da Conegliano, 1505. This is one of my favorite paintings concerning David and Goliath.
