You guys are a riot! If your wives are mad at Harold, what do you think his wife's attitude is? BTW, Harold has a wonderful, understanding, and very patient wife. Any woman who would put up with the amount of work and effort Harold invested in the Bill Bigge Janus project should be thoroughly pampered! (Well, at least for one weekend?!?!!) Did you thank her, Harold?

Oh. Another Haroldism: But, I had to. Harold is taller than me.

In the Janus class Harold passed a thank you card around, for all of us to sign, for his wife. Very classy and thoughtful of him I thought.

Cliff, that's brilliant!! Wink We could make Harold the scapegoat of all our lapses in wisdom:

"Honey, I had to buy all that fabric. Harold made me do it!"
"Dear, I have to go to that kiting event; Harold is forcing me."
"Darling, if I didn't by that new tool, Harold would never forgive me!"
"Honey Dearest, if I don't buy all those wonderful fittings for a
historically accurate Cody, Harold will call me a kite wuss!! In public!!"

Honey...It was Harolds Fault...I didn't want to get addicted to Roc battles...but he made me do it!!!

Boy was I disappointed with Harbor Freight today. Apparantly no one in southeast michigan needs cheap tool in the evening. The location just a few miles from my house closes at 7pm... but this is later that they used to close. According to the guy blocking the door so i couldn't get in, they "just pushed back closing time. We used to close at 6." This is monday thru friday...

and I was planning on making an Eddy skin for Progcraft tonight too Crying or Very sad

I was just at Harbor Freight in Salem, Oregon. Boy, did we have fun!! I got a great metal ruler with metric and inches with cork on the backside for around $3 (and no sales tax in Oregon!) Also, picked up a zip tie gun. My husband got a 6" digital calipers for $20 (reg $50). And we picked up a few other odds and ends. Oh well, too bad you don't live here. I saw a great sharp pointed soldering tool that would have made a great hot tacker but I already had one. I think it was around $5. Anyone, need one just let me know. I'll be going back in the middle of next week.

knot(tier)ronda Very Happy
