The Coffee Shop / Government Spending!
« on: May 15, 2012, 09:19:47 am »
Thought For The Day
The Secret Service scandal was discovered when a disagreement on how much a prostitute wanted for her services came to light. She wanted $800.00. The Secret Service Agent offered $30.00. How ironic is it that the only person in Washington willing to cut spending gets fired?

The Coffee Shop / How gullible are we?
« on: May 12, 2012, 05:34:15 pm »
A student at Eagle Rock Junior High won first prize at the Greater Idaho Falls Science Fair, April 26. He was attempting to show how conditioned we have become to alarmists practicing junk science and spreading fear of everything in our environment. In his project he urged people to sign a petition demanding strict control or total elimination of the chemical "dihydrogen monoxide."
And for plenty of good reasons, since:
it can cause excessive sweating and vomiting
it is a major component in acid rain
it can cause severe burns in its gaseous state
accidental inhalation can kill you
it contributes to erosion
it decreases effectiveness of automobile brakes
it has been found in tumors of terminal cancer patients
He asked 50 people if they supported a ban of the chemical.
Forty-three (43) said yes,
six (6) were undecided,
and only one (1) knew that the chemical was water.
The title of his prize winning project was, "How Gullible Are We?"
He feels the conclusion is obvious.

Sitting on the patio after a nice meal and the birds are chirping up a storm!
7 months ago I would have not even heard them much less been annoyed by them!!!
Gotta go get my 'remote' and turn down the volume on this Bionic Ear!

General Scroll Saw Talk / W.I.P Guitar Stand
« on: May 05, 2012, 05:37:14 pm »
building this 'collapsible guitar stand for my grandson's graduation next week.
Took grocery bag to the pawn shop and traced pattern !
Base is White Pine and removable neck is Red Oak.
Still needs router work, neck brace and will apply his initials to the front.
(That is not a blemish on the neck! A damn fly landed just as I took the picture!)
