Willing spirits and weakened flesh.

Well running Lee Valley through the computerized language translator (into Swahili and back to English) gives "Need Money."

Hey, I'm between cherry bowls right now, finishing lunch, and my fresh copy of FWW is sitting on the stack of mail within arm's reach. I'm only trembling slightly.

Of course the new LV catalog isn't here yet....

I got my big shiny new LV catalog in the mail yesterday, and I've managed to put it off this long... But I got my fix from their smaller catalog of new woodworking stuff, which I enjoyed very much. Can't wait to dive into the big one, though! I think I might "need" a Mk.II... Maybe for Christmas...

Through a diabolical combination of the absolute necessity of saving for upcoming property tax season, a kid still in college, and the exercise of enormous will power, I have apparently been exorcised from "The List".

Should I go ahead and sue the appraisal district and Dept of Education now, or wait until the pain and suffering has tripled after Christmas?

Funny, I ran it through the "SWMBO translator" and it came back "You send them one more nickle and I will beat you with a ball bat."

Ahhh...

If you think that's bad... the (now 236 page) hardware catalogue went in the mail Friday.... and Xmas catalogue is just around the corner...

we're baaaad......

:)

Yes you is, ya bastid. And now, with the Shrub's deflated ducats and your annual price increases, we can't buy nearly as much "stuff" as we'd like any more. If only I were born rich instead of ugly... (or something like that.)

We're living in a car because the bank has just taken the house, my six children only get potato and bread sandwiches for their school lunches and my pregnant wife is holding down three jobs. And NOW, you're telling me that I'm going to be forced to spend all our Christmas money on new Lee Valley tools for me.

Hell, Uncle Scrooge has nothing on you.

Those marketing people in your corporation all need a free weekend with the corporate Jet, Robin. They deserve it. . . . . . . . . . ...now was that a Jet lathe or a Jet band saw?

That's the one... the hardware catalogue... I already have almost all your tools....*G*

What kind of car?
