Goodness, the shrew infestation had me totally distracted, but I must pass along what our dear friend and supporter Curtis Powell sent me. Just lovely.

Just a little update: Seems there is a three way bidding war for Clint's chair. It's between us, the Smithsonian and the Museum of Foolish Behavior.

Well, Summer is drawing to a close and we have had a record number of weddings here at the Doll and Chair Garden. Twenty One! (Twenty two if you count the polygamists).
On the upside, we do a truly memorable, lovely event. The Dare Wright Pavilion has views of the sea, the mountain and the city skyline. We'll feed you delicious food from our in-house catering company (Dough and Cherries). You'll dance! You'll laugh! You'll enjoy a piece of Doll or Chair themed wedding cake. Everything will be perfect!
But, there is a dirty little secret. See, turns out that no marriage that begins here at the D and C lasts longer than two years. Is it a curse? Is it that married life just can't measure up to the blissful fantasy we provide? Is is just a statistical fluke? Don't know.
I was recently mortified to discover that the folks in the Events Department actually have a betting pool. (OK, I admit, I put five dollars down on the Robbison-Jones union to last thirteen months, with a bonus dollar on the grounds being mental cruelty.)
Candy, our ever up-beat favorite docent, is quick to cheerfully tell you, "Hey! They don't all end in divorce! Ten percent end in death!" Thanks, Candy.
I'd put an end to weddings at the Doll and Chair, if only they didn't bring in so damn much money!

From the mailbag: "Hello, my name is Enid. Many years ago when I was a little girl, my parents were getting a divorce. The judge told me I would have to choose between my mom and my dad. I couldn't handle the pressure so I ran away and hid in your museum. By day I concealed myself in the Frank Lloyd Wright Dollhouse. By night I would lounge on the historic chairs and the dolls of the world were my friends. I would eat left over Entemann's I found in the break room. Eventually I realized I had to face my problems and returned home. These were probably the happiest six weeks of my life. Thank you!"

Sometimes I get tired of people saying, "Doll and Chair Museum? That's odd."
