Russian garages
Hello all,
I found an interesting story on the BBC website. It was about how Russian men build garages and how this is a mystery to women. Here is the link: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/6927395.stm The article is located on the right of the page under "IN PICTURES" it is called "Male Bonding". Well, st least that is the location today. In a few days you might need to do search on the website to find it. Good luck and hope you enjoy it. Richard |

A lot of what I do also seems to be a mystery to my wife, but she is pretty tolerant anyhow. |

A lot of what I do also seems to be a mystery to my wife, but she is pretty tolerant anyhow. Three weeks ago we attended the "wake" for my wife's brother, held in his "garage". When he started his plumbing business, he converted his single garage to an office (there was no space available in his small home) and added a workshop behind, including furnace, indoor plumbing, etc. After turning the business over to his son, the "office" underwent further modification. These Russians had nothing on him except perhaps some still have room for a car. Gerry :-)} London, Canada |

Richard Yeah but those pictures must all be fakes because there isn't a calender of the Rigid Tool girls tacked up on any of the walls in the pics. Nobody could have a set up like that without one. Impossible. Dave |

The guy probably dug it out of a trash bin somewhere. Some may consider that "fine art", but it isn't the Rigid Tool girls. It's a well known scientific fact that pleasant images of the Rigid Tool girls ward off the brain damaging effects of Bondo vapours. Everyone knows that no auto work can be done without this critical safety device. Ergo: the pics are fakes. Dave |
