As I found out today there are places you can post pictures and places you
can't post pictures of your work. So at least I learned something new for the day. Is there a FAQ for this group or someone willing to tell me the proper way to post here. Mike Watch for the bounce.

Binary pictures of woodworking projects, usually in jpeg format, but that format is not a requirement, unless you want most folks to see your efforts with effort on their part. Most consider it polite to limit the resolution/size to something that is easy for those on a dialup connection to download within a few minutes. Most of the picture posted seem to be in the 80 - 250 KB range without upsetting the apple cart of ire.

Old Air Force Munitions Saying I think the rule about text only groups dates back the days of dial up ISP's and bandwidth. People were paying by the minute in those days and didn't want to spend time waiting for a picture to download. I am not personally offended, but I just thought you should know what goes on. |

and bear watching. Anon- Bear watching... Sounds dangerous! Especially if you adhere to the "right to arm bears" thing... This reminds me of an off-topic dirtbike joke: Astride his shiny new 125, Frank was thoroughly excited about going riding in the mountains for the first time. After going only a few miles, Frank was surprised to see what appeared to be a half-acre of brown fur just off the trail ahead. Recognizing it as a huge grizzly bear, Frank nailed the throttle hard, hoping to get by before the bear could react. The bear was too quick, though, and with one leap was totally blocking the trail. Frank had no choice but to stop. "Now that you've disturbed my sleep", said the bear, "you have two choices. Either I maul you to death or we have sex." Frightened beyond belief, Frank decided to bend over. Still sore a week later, Frank vowed revenge. Back to the cycle shop he went, where he traded in the 125 for a hot 250. Soon he was back on the mountain, heading down the trail. It wasn't long at all before he spotted the grizzly again, napping beside the trail. Feeling certain he had the necessary power this time, Frank nailed the throttle and shot ahead. But once again the bear was too quick, and again he blocked the trail. "That was a big mistake, Frank", said the bear. "But, you know the drill. Either I maul you to death or we have sex... rough sex." Fearful for his life, Frank again decided that it would be wise to comply. This time it took weeks before Frank recovered enough to get around. But still outraged at the bear, he traded in the 250 and got the hottest 500 money could buy before heading back to the mountain. Now he could outrun the bear, and now he'd prove who was the master! And with the faster 500 under him, it took no time at all before he looked ahead and saw the huge grizzly again. Frank lowered his head, down shifted, and confidently nailed the throttle hard, rocketing ahead so quickly he was barely able to hang on. Incredibly, however, the bear was quicker still, and Frank had no choice but to come to a sliding halt in front of the bear now blocking the trail. A chill ran up his spine as he waited for the bear to speak. "C'mon, Frank", said the bear. "Admit it. You don't come here to trail ride any more, do you?" |
