And I'll try the dousing (sp?) bit too. Both fit right in my budget!

Dowsing is fun to play with. *You don't need the tubes, cans,
whatever, *Bend the rod in an "L", balance them on you little finger

I think you mean index finger, let me know if not.

and make a loose tube with the rest of the fingers. *Hold them with
long leg horizontal and walk slowly. *If they work for you, they will
cross when you cross a wire or pipe. *For some people they swing
"out", for me they swing "in". *I can stand over a pipe, sway back and
forth and the rods cross and uncross as it do it.

I'm ready to try it, but I've been running around getting stuff for the
roof. It looks fabulous!

I got to drive their truck down to pick up 5 more square and although
I've had many driving experiences, this was a new one. Just turn the
key, touch the wires together and it starts right up. No third gear and
2nd was slipping. I could say more... I had picked up their black
mechanic after two days of trying to get him to the door, he put in 2
freeze plugs ($40) in a F150 in the time it took me to get back.

* *I find this all great fun and superbly entertaining. You can't buy
this! I'm getting absolutely top notch work, and doing a good deed to
boot. *You know how that works out.

* *Jeff

No. The end of the short leg of the "L" rests on your little finger.
The other 3 fingers and thumb form the "tube". You _can_ use jars,
cans or whatever but it isn't needed. Just hold the rods _loosely_.

Jeff, et al. I will video myself dowsing and post it to youtube. Might not
be tomorrow, as it is windy, and I have to go out of town, but will be one
day real soon. It's something very easy to show, but kinda difficult to
describe.

I will make some little pvc holders and see if that works. I've always used
bare hands, and don't know if having anything but flesh on the wires affects
it or not. Will see.

Thanks, that's very nice.

It'll be days before I can do anything. On today's list is changing the
lifters in my girlfriends Mustang, trimming in the front door, and
getting the rest of the roof finished. Then there is more house
painting. At least I am almost done working (web developer) on this:

I remember when days seemed possible, not overwhelming. How does life
get so complicated?

I guess we will. I like "the direct" approach.

It's the principle of the riding lawn mower. The riding lawnmower was not
so we could mow the yard, then go have a beer, take a nap, go fishing, go
________ (fill in the blank.)

The purpose of the riding lawn mower is so we can have a bigger yard.

All our labor saving devices just let us do more work. Which brings us to
multitasking - The ability to do more than one thing at once, but none of
them very good.
