For some reason I find myself in a "Western' / "Native American" trend right now. Does this happen to others? You get into a theme and just run with it until you get tired and move on to something else?

Maybe I'm watching too many Tom Selleck/Sam Elliott movies!

So you don't just sit around finding jokes for us but actually know your way around that nice new Yellow machine.  Nice stuff there.  Yep and right now I am into hummin birds.

I don't do trends. I just find something I like and cut it.

Nice stuff Greybeard, I really like the arrowhead. Lately I have also been wanting to cut Native American Stuff. I hope it sells at my next show.

Judy...most of the things I post on the "Coffee Shop" find me! Rarely do I go looking for fun stuff to promulgate.

I've mentioned this before but I have several friends and a couple relatives who know I enjoy a good story or interesting factoids and they keep one of my email inboxes literally stuffed. It got so bad a while back that I gave them a separate email address for me and all that kind of stuff winds up in one place for me to review and pass on. It is not unusual for my buddy in Atlanta to send me as many as 15 or 20 things a day! Many of his are definitely not "Family Friendly" so I have to pick and choose what I pass on. He is in 'international sales' and gets things from his cohorts all over the world!
Also I have the distinct advantage of being able to see the TV from my computer desk so I can follow a ballgame or program while passing things on.

BTW the Yankees are winning 6-1!

Well, I am glad they keep you supplied so you can pass them on to us.  :D
 I really enjoy your stories/jokes/trivia.  Seems all I get for email is ads for pills on how to enlarge parts of me that I dont even have.  The parts I do have a plenty large enough ..thank you.
Keep 'em coming GB. You are as close as I will ever get to Sam Elliot. ;)

I cut the end of the trail arrowhead this week.  I need to take pics.  You did a nice job on all 3!
Where did you get that rendition of the bison and skull?  I really like that one as well.

I too am in a theme mood this week "arrow heads", I need to break it soon as I really need to switch to Christmas themed things.

I hate to admit it, but I trend.  I've done the southwest trend many times over.  You see a great pattern and just can't help it - then you think of an old pattern that would look really cool with this one.......it just goes like that.

Plumber...
My distance vision is about 20/30 however up close I use 3.00 for reading and 2.25 for computer monitor reading. I have a 24" monitor so I can set the resolution high enough to read without glasses but it takes away the beauty of the wide screen!
I am an 'anomaly' for my eye Dr. because my pressures border on Glaucoma but remain the same over 30 years and my distance vision got better as the pressures increased! We just check it every 6 months and so far no problems. I do have the beginnings of cataracts but Dr. says when I complain the he will cut them out not ready yet!
Thankfully one area of this old body that seems to just "Keep on Ticking!".
