Might be worth taking a look at. Wilkl put link at bottom of post.

I wanted to add that extra touch to my wine so I designed my own <A HREF="http://www.selfadhesivelabels.com/wine_labels.html" REL="nofollow">wine labels</A> and had it printed by a british labels company who did a excellent job.

Please keep the ideas coming. Another idea: I have a 'pet' spider, a rather large, black, female wolf spider named "Clarisse". I'll try to take a picture of her as soon as I track her down.

It's generally colder in here than it is outside, which is nice in the summer, not so much in the winter. I'm a PhD student studying genome size evolution in invertebrate animals, so anything incorporating various less-than-charismatic inverts (snails, worms, insects, spiders, pillbugs, centipedes, etc) would also be appropriate. My M.Sc. was on guppy genetics, with comparisons to swordtails. I moved to Onterrible from Lotus Land recently. Anything else about my life (or your fevered imagination).TheBrummellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08973380652057861796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19216099.post-36643806766533928902007-06-01T10:26:00.000-06:002007-06-01T10:26:00.000-06:00To get things started, I found this website: http:...To get things started, I found this website: http://www.winelabels.org/ <BR/>of unusual labels on commercial wines from around the world.<BR/><BR/>Theme ideas: Zombies, Skeletons, other undead, pirates, ninjas, giant robots, stupid superheroes, orcs, goblins, kobolds, mad scientists, cephalopods, fishTheBrummellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08973380652057861796noreply@blogger.com
