Stavia is the best... she treats me right, I treat her right. It is a good thing we have going here. Gamer score stands at 57,639. Not too shabby! That is a profit of 25 points over last time! She played Diablo III acquiring 1 achievement on 360, and then she started getting all these friend requests because of high awesomeness levels.

She played Diablo III gaining 1 achievement on 360, and wished it would never end, but it did and that was sad.

Stavia likes to game, I like to game, this is a match made in heaven! It takes a gamer score like 57,589 to be as cool as her. She played Diablo III on 360, and oh... girl was it ever sweet!

Sold

Melac mania! These pieces are certainly bright and cheery melmac. The four navy blue berry bowls are from Texas-Ware and measure 5½" diameter and stand 1½" tall. The three red and three blue larger bowls are Dallas Ware. These larger bowls are 7½" diameter with a rim ¾" and stand 1¼" tall. They can stand on their own or to mix and match with other pieces you have of the ever popular red, white and blue. All are in good condition and are super light and great for adding to your picnic basket. There are a total of ten bowls.

"Full sets are sometimes hard to find, but you can start inexpensively piecing sets together that you think are cool or fun! There are so many makers, lines, patterns and colors that you could easily start whatever moves you. One can easily start a pink set, but even after twenty pieces realize that if comprised of many manufacturers each may be off a slight hue off in color. Decide what lines you like best, and go from there.

The actual material "melamine" was dirt cheap in the mid to late 1930's and there was a push to use this new material for all kinds of things. Entering wartime constraints, plastic was soon to be the wave of the future. Housewares made of early plastics, resins and Bakelite did not hold up well or withstand regular washing or heat, but when melamine began in dinnerware production for the military, it proved that this new "improved plastic" could indeed hold up well.

By the late 1940's there were many molders making melamine dishes including Boonton Molding of Boonton, New Jersey (Boontonware) and PMC Manufacturing Company of Dallas, Texas (Texasware)."

I saw Stavia walk by yesterday morning... I was hoping she would come play and she did. 57,589 points and climbing. She rocked out to Diablo III on 360, and then nothing... nothing at all...

Stavia decided to ride the gamer-train yesterday. I will admit it... I was happy. What is the gamer score? 57,589 is what it is! She rocked out to Diablo III on 360, and after we were done, Stavia hugged me with her eyes. It was one of those platonic hugs... you know...
