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."

Time for the song- I fought the law… but change the words to the building department won. Satellite imagery is a deal killer for trying to add square footage without a permit…

True, but heck, they are using drones and helicopters too in the crackdown on illegal builds here, mostly where the super-rich people are. I met a couple of the copter pilots at a party long time ago, they said they thought I was cool so they wouldnt fly over my house - but I didnt trust them - and didnt tell them where I live.

You getting the vaccine DW?

I personally am not rushing to get it. Might at some point I guess. I don't interact with a lot of people so not a high risk.

Funny story, this morning I read an article about a senator that said give relief funds to those who get vaccine. Wife asked me if I'd get it if they offered money. Told her I'd do a hit of ecstasy if they gave me enough. Might even let them micro chip me. Poke at the conspiracy theorist out there.

Praise report and the music for my post will be-

Why? I am eligible under the 1B group to get the vaccine with my school district … yay I pray that it is good- Moderna?

Good one DW. This has been 1st job where I have not been required by management to do anything but the job I was hired to do, fix vehicles and train an apprentice. LOVE IT. Finally no being in charge, meetings and extra duty as assigned stuff. Only decision I make is when I eat lunch.

At this shop the game is simple, come in on time, fix stuff, eat lunch before 1400 and then go home at 1800.

Woodworking question-

Anyone got a suggestion for a 2hp router set? Fixed and plunge base combo.

I'm gonna need one. Probably leaning Dewalt. No Bosch. I've had problems 3x's now. That's enough.

So for my new job it will be more woodworking. I was going to use a dewalt 20v for the small router, whatever you guys suggest for the 2 base deal. Need anything else?

I will have a 3hp router table available to use.

If no Bosch then next one down would be Dewalt, my opinion only. I have a Hitachi set I got 12 years ago and it has worked well. Last month the main bearing went bad and I replaced it. Not bad, $12 part and about 30 minutes of time, no special tools needed. It is louder than the others but hey it has worked well.

People who are waiting… but there is no available appointment as the media says go and apply… It was through the grace of God that my life is serving… Pottz when praising God as I did- to label it as a comparison to politics? Buddy, you would have made a great "Pontius Pilate" crucify DW or Barabus…
