Bigwull, you are hilarious.

Claiming that you have a laptop ..... but you don't wear a kilt or a dress is funny as hell.

Do you also climb up on tree branches and twitter like a bird.

And being someone who violates most all the rules of English grammar, and could care less, but then being the most vocal about what you perceive to be my one (1) incident of a misuse of grammar, ….. just has to be per se say, a clear cut case of “antique’er harassment”.

Harassment, .... as in all cases, .... not what was said, ... but who said it.
...Me Harass you...perish the thought...and how do you know i don,t wear a kilt...and as for your misuse of grammar...i don,t give a hoot..about your grammar...as mines is no better....... ;)
I make no excuses,and no apologies....but i like a good Malt,

UPDATE!!!

OK, in reading Dean A Fales wonderful book "American Painted Furniture 1660-1880" , it's become obvious this blanket chest was not built in Connecticut as George Seymour (original collector) & CHS thought. It was most likely built in Hadley Massachusetts. I could care less but is pretty sure Mr Seymour would be disapointed to learn that this chest was not made in his beloved Conn. Thankfully, he is not here to know this :)
