A lot of it is. OTOH, I recently picked up some really nice cabinet grade
3/4" birch plywood for like 1/4 of the new price. You have to keep looking for those diamonds in the rough. todd "Ignoramus23461" wrote in message .. . I saw it too. Most of the stuff on craigslist is overpriced junk. i On Wed, 10 Aug 2005 22:46:01 -0500, Todd Fatheree wrote: I chuckle every time this stunade posts this.

Shopping for tools (or anything else for that matter) on Craigslist, eBay, garage/estate sales, or, for that matter, this group is a fairy tale experience. "Sometimes you gotta kiss a lotta frogs to get a prince!" Hey! I got dibs on that round-handled ratchet screwdriver from Taiwan. Let go, it's mine! |

Let go, it's mine! I somehow ended up with one of those in the same bold and vivid red/white coloration. (Gift from female family member, no doubt.) How much is it worth to you, bubba?

Send me the screwdriver and five bucks and I'll promise you'll never have to look at it again. I'm easy but not THAT easyg |

OK, I give, I googled it, looked at various slang dictionaries, and still couldn't find anything. I get a drift of the connotation from the context, but what exactly, does it mean?

For some reason, the word came to mind, but I wasn't sure I was using it right. I had very little success trying to find a definition. IIRC, it's southern Italian for "dumbass" or thereabouts. There's just something pleasing about the word...like it really fits its intended target. todd |
