    Great, Iggy! Please, post its picture when it's ready. By the way, do you start making the monkey from head or legs? Keep us posted on the progress.
    Keep walking. Just keep walking.

    Great idea, Iggy! Good for you!

    Stan -- we will find a way to bring more monkeys into your life!
    Meds free since June 2005.

    "An initiation into shamanic healing means a devaluation of all values, an overturning of the profane world, a peeling away of inveterate handed-down notions of the world, liberation from everything preconceived. For that reason, shamanism is closely connected with suffering. One must suffer the disintegration of one's own system of thought in order to perceive a new world in the higher space."

    Ha! Beautiful, Iggy. That is the way to go. All of the pictures are awesome, but the Fantasic Five is the best.

    Hi Iggy,

    I really like your new sock monkey "Little Stan". Thanks so much for posting the photos for us all to see.
