But they sure are prettier the nagging sound of a GPS voice telling you you're going the wrong way. (And topographical maps are the prettiest!)<BR/><BR/>Oh, and I think wheezy is a much better dwarf name than sneezy!Crabby McSlackerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12108791388350253344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33059794.post-14484162358454646832008-08-29T10:36:00.000-07:002008-08-29T10:36:00.000-07:00hehe, your post made me giggle!

Hubby and I have a gigantic map of the world hanging in our living room. It isn't framed, but we still keep our eyes open for a frame which would be big enough -- it's one of those giant wall-hanger maps and usually you can't find frames that big.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for visiting my blog today! :)Thomma Lynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12490964079393282131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33059794.post-46464921618987521112008-08-29T06:49:00.000-07:002008-08-29T06:49:00.000-07:00Good to know that there are other map freaks out t...Good to know that there are other map freaks out there! I'm not alone. (Though I was in that store. Honestly, those people were... okay, let it go, let it go...)<BR/><BR/>And Reb, that's interesting about holding my breath. I was doing that a lot before I starting doing the drugs. Kinda freaks people out when you do it, though.

Pity.<BR/><BR/>Sorry to hear about the asthma, but like you said, at least you know what is troubling you now. Good luck!Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16239398378627471218noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33059794.post-48517852482896084482008-08-27T20:48:00.000-07:002008-08-27T20:48:00.000-07:00Oh I love maps and globes and any kind of referenc...Oh I love maps and globes and any kind of reference material really! <BR/><BR/>Your asthma can be controlled, it will just take a bit of time to find the right combination of drugs and timing and dosages. Until then, coffee works to open the bronchial tubes if you are wheezy. Cousin Leah mentioned the other day that holding your breath for a few seconds (as long as you can) can also help. I know that one sounds just wrong, but it actually works. Something about balancing the carbon mon or dioxide in your lungs.Rebhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05318594769530526005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33059794.post-83387662839245567582008-08-27T08:01:00.000-07:002008-08-27T08:01:00.000-07:00I've always loved maps too.

I can't believe they thought it was weird. <BR/><BR/>Florida doesn't have much topography so I'll lust after your Oregon instead :-)Diana Swallow https://www.blogger.com/profile/06617104284642930333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33059794.post-27668001441572222652008-08-25T12:18:00.000-07:002008-08-25T12:18:00.000-07:00I totally appreciate your appreciation for maps. ...I totally appreciate your appreciation for maps. I live in Maryland and even I know the name of our mountain, Sugarloaf. Hey, it's a small state, we've only got one. I don't count the Appalachians because they only cut across the tiniest corner of the state, barely inside the state at all. Come to think of it, I'm not sure Sugarloaf even counts. It's probably more of a hill, but like the Englishman who went up one, we're proud of it.McBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01437136297944260051noreply@blogger.com
