    Making a Ferrari horse

    I am always left in humble awe when I watch displays of tremendous talent.

    I spent some time in Venice watching experts blow glass with what seemed to be ease. I'd like to try it sometime, but doubt I'd be good at it.

    I love watching glass blowers and blacksmiths. They both amaze me with what they do.

    I saw that video while back. I was totally in awe as to how they were able to keep from burning themselves up. My wife is a glass blower as a hobbyist. She absolutely loves it.
