OK Chris I almost crapped myself when I saw your kissing cousins. Imagine being born together and never leaving each other for almost 150 years! That seems impossible.

I thought I was the only person on the planet who had kissing cousins. (see links below) The guy that picked mine said they were side-by-side on the crossarm and had to be sold as a pair. This is the same thing the guy that picked yours said. Imagine treating two pieces of glass as if they had feelings. They've been together for so long you can't separate them now. LOL

I absolutely love how an inanimate object or objects can actually make you smile and mine made me smile many times. When I see insulators on my shelves, I often see a memory of when I fell down the hill on that trip or who I boosted up the pole. I see a trip to Maine, or a walk in Ashtabula. As far as my twins go, I always get an aweeeee, every time my wife or daughter sees them or a "how cute".

Anyway, thanks for the post, the smiles, and the friendship. This is what this hobby is all about! Have fun and take care!
