Keep it going for you guys. Let's keep the politics limited this time.

A young woman visits her parents and brings her fiancée to meet them. After an elaborate dinner, the mother tells her husband to find out about the young man.

The father invites the fiancée to his library for a drink. "So what are your plans?" the father asks the young man.

"I am a Torah scholar," he says. "A Torah scholar? Hmmm," the father says.

"Admirable, but what will you do to provide a nice house for my daughter to live in, as she is accustomed to?"

"I will study," the young man said, "and God will provide for us."

"And how will you buy her a beautiful engagement ring, such as she deserves?" asks the father.

"I will concentrate on my studies," the young man replies. "God will provide for us."

"And children?" asks the father. "How will you support children?"

"Don't worry, sir, God will provide," replies the fiancée.

The conversation continues like this, and each time the father questions, the young idealist insist that God will provide.

Later, the mother asks: "How did it go, Honey?"

The father answers: "He has no job and no plans, but the good news is he thinks I'm God."

That is a prudent admonishment of the dangers of alcohol in the shop. +1

Yet there are those who socially imbibe and they could monitor their own safe limits-

Or we could require one of these devices for our machines?

It could be the next Saw Stop…

A strange thing usually happens when you have a close call or accident while drunk. You seem to sober up real quick.

Drinking and a good cigar are for AFTER the work is done. As they should be. This during the work is just insanity.

Got stuff done in the shop, one box I am working on will be for concrete bits. Glued top and bottom on the frame tonight. Will flush route the edges tomorrow and cut it down to make a bottom and top. Hinges and clasps are in stock so just waiting for work to be done tomorrow and then I can get home and get cracking.

Have 4 trays in the finishing room now in various stages of completion. Might be ready to assemble Sunday but I doubt it. Have to work on some measurements for a Drill Press cabinet to get started on this weekend. Maybe..

Been just my wife and I for Thanksgiving since 2010 when I came home from Iraq and she came here from Ukraine. Have enjoyed nice quiet day, giving thanks to the Lord for surviving, and for the woman in my life.

Be more than happy to share some wit, wisdom and a drink with ya.
