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."

OK Pottz. Ya got me here. (Again) Seems like butterflies and honeybees prevail….and some incredibly funny ones too. Corelz…I read my wife the muffler joke. It's not fair when another man can make my wife laugh so hard. I swear she's still giggling, and that was from last night. Good luck as chief cat herder. DW…beautiful Gazebo my man! I'll have to dig up pics of one I built years ago, much simpler, but a really fun build. CNC…no pushback here. If I did it would only be because it's way past my tech chops….and hence just sour grapes. I have enough ways to embarrass myself as it is. Cut list? Huh? What's that? Oh yeah. Vanilla, chocolate shell with roasted unsalted almonds.
Guess you can count me in… ; )

Looking forward to a comfy stool at the bar with you guys. All I'm gonna say…and that'll be it…we have one heck of a lot more in common than we have differences between us, and I promise to do my best not to put my arse on my shoulders. ; )
Now if only I could tell a joke like you Corelz!

Cheers to all!

Sitting on the side of the highway waiting to catch speeding drivers, a State Police Officer sees a car puttering along at 22 MPH.

He thinks to himself, "This driver is just as dangerous as a speeder!" So he turns on his lights and pulls the driver over.

Approaching the car, he notices that there are five old ladies - two in the front seat and three in the back - eyes wide and white as ghosts.

The driver, obviously confused, says to him, "Officer, I don't understand, I was doing exactly the speed limit! What seems to be the problem?"

"Ma'am," the officer replies, "You weren't speeding, but you should know that driving slower than the speed limit can also be a danger to other drivers."

"Slower than the speed limit?" she asked. No sir, I was doing the speed limit exactly… Twenty-Two miles an hour!" the old woman says a bit proudly. The State Police officer, trying to contain a chuckle explains to her that "22" was the route number, not the speed limit. A bit embarrassed, the woman grinned and thanked the officer for pointing out her error.

"But before I let you go, Ma'am, I have to ask… Is everyone in this car ok? These women seem awfully shaken and they haven't muttered a single peep this whole time." the officer asks.

"Oh, they'll be alright in a minute officer. We just got off Route 119."

Pottz- your thread was shut down… C125 is the new leader and for seating arrangements- since C125 and RCC were the only 2 who Cricket responded to their post with "kudos". Therefore, let the new blood lead. Yes Pottz, your Joke meister is doing great- now let him run. As an old dog to another "let your pup run". He is doing a good job!

Pottz there is a rumor- your seat is next to me… but is it at the end of the bar or WBN's spaceship?

Added another expansion tray to this drawer. Two types of Forstner bits. One for everyday use, the other for hardwoods. I taped off the top and put 2 coats of poly on it. Then lightly sanded and came back with some stain. Just messing with the look some. The space behind will be a box for the moment, if needed I can turn right-side up and use for more bit storage. Stain in progress this evening for that one.
