WANTED: SWMBO

Aug 17, 2005 15 Replies

I am looking for a used SWMBO in the Las Vegas area that is interested in me spending lots of money on power tools, hand tools and other fine woodworking equipment. Preferrably her money than mine but that can be negotiable. Looks are desirable but not a must.



Please reply via email with telephone number and address where she can be seen.

What does "SWMBO" stand for?

She Who Must Be Obeyed (aka the missus) Comes from Rumpole of the Bailey (BBC TV) Jock

Comes from a lot farther back than that. Check my website.

Only if you've been raised on TV ... it actually comes from H. Rider Haggard, circa 1920, a bit before BBC TV.

I'm young :) Jock

Try 1885, even longer before BBC TV.

Try Mrs. Black, or Mrs. Decker, or Mrs. Porter or Mrs. Cable. They're "used" and would love for you to spend all of YOUR money on tools and equipment. Forget about Mrs. Sears, she's cheap and superficial.

Besides that, Mrs. Sears is involved in an alternate lifestyle with Mrs. Kmart.

I hear Ms. Harbor-Freight is available (if you like oriental girls).

SWMBO's like that are rare and seldom recycled.

I got one! Had her for 11 years. Neener neener!

Me too ... mine doesn't even come in the shop (basement) until I call for her to come look at a finished piece but will occaisionally suggest I get a new major tool and will accompany me to the tool place and the lumberyard.

$13 bf rosewood? No problem.

Major gem.
