David, that can be fixed. If you were closer, I'd do it for you. A furniture restorer could do it. It may not end up completely invisible, but it could be sooooo minimized that no one would ever notice it, 'cept you.


Also, cats can be fricasseed. Peruvian purple potatoes make a great side dish, I hear.


Always call the place you live a house. When you're old, everyone else will call it a home.
