So wear one of these tap tap safety cups in your drahs! -- The State always moves slowly and grudgingly towards any purpose that accrues to society's advantage, but moves rapidly and with alacrity towards one that accrues to its own advantage; nor does it ever move towards social purposes on its own initiative, but only under heavy pressure, while its motion towards anti-social purposes is self-sprung. - Albert Jay Nock - http://diversify.com Web Programming for curmudgeons and others. - |

Funny you should mention that. Sears Best Weatherbrater has Polyurethane in it now. It is GREAT paint and covers well. Flows well and goes a long way. I should get some money I thought of this 15 years ago. -- Knight-Toolworks & Custom Planes Custom made wooden planes at reasonable prices See http://www.knight-toolworks.com For prices and ordering instructions. |

One of our later rows was over some shelves (copied from Changing Rooms) that I'd built into an alcove in our 60 year old house. Not a bad piece of work, and beautifully fitted into the less-than-square corners. But of course Handy-fecking-Andy could have built them in half an hour on the telly, _and_ he'd have relaid the whole garden lawn on the Sunday too. It had taken me months to do this, so clearly I was being lazy. Or maybe it was because it was _Winter_ outside. Friend of mine's wife spends the whole day watching the house-porn channel and never moves from the couch. You can't even move in the lounge for eBay boxes. |
