<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thank you so much to everyone who sent kind notes
about Solomon and his sad ending. I am grateful he picked me to come to in
his final hours. My vet routinely cremates any dogs not being buried by
the owners, but for a little extra, they'd separate him out and I could get his
ashes, so I opted for that. Many urns are out of my price range, but
I discovered when I looked for one for my Nellie's ashes in July, that a ginger
jar is perfect, and there are hundreds on eBay and most are
inexpensive. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> So, I went on eBay. The story of it is
one of those "freaky coincidences." I had gotten the ginger jar for my
Nellie's ashes back in July. When I logged on to eBay in search of one for
Solomon's, the account opened with a slideshow of items similar to things I have
purchased recently (sort of like a "Well, you bought this before, so you must
like to buy this often" type idea, I guess.) Well, the last 10 things I've
purchased were books and art supplies, but the slideshow that came up was for
ginger jars! So, feeling guided by Solomon, I started looking at some. He was a
dark tricolor, so I was looking at a Japanese dark brown one with a peacock on
it for some reason [it sort of looked a little too gaudy to me--bright teal and
chartreuse with orange]--and then I looked at the seller: Solomon6465!! Then I
decided to type "King Solomon" into Google to see if there was anything
associated with the man that I should look for instead, and the Wikipedia
reference comes up with a drawing of him on his throne, and on the stone steps
at his feet is a peacock!!! I think that's enough for me--this urn is the one
Solomon wants :) </FONT></DIV>
