    Well I think he's a toad & love him, warts 'n' all. I have a night light that visitors have more than once mistaken for one of my turtles.

    I'm glad somebody found SOMETHING. I went to an estate sale this morning, admittedly after the first rush, and spent a whole $2 on nothing worth showing. They had jewelry left, but the prices were higher than I'd see at the Ill Will.
