Good one Obi…the thought had crossed my mind, but two things. First my shoulder hurts like the dikkens and second, the Dr said the longer I wait, the more damage is caused. Debbie, its not too serious. I dislocated my shoulder a couple times in the army and as a result, I tore the cartilage in my shoulder, now its completly torn in tow and has slipped down into the joint. he''s going in and staple it back up. should only be down a couple of months thats if i didn't mess anything else : )

 

you're due for a break…call it vacation time and spend your spare time (recovery) at Lumberjocks.com and looking for future projects.

 

Greg… sure, not too bad… until you describe it. Rest well (or work on becoming ambidexterous

 

#241 You know you are a lumbejock when you shop for a new vehical based on the amount of wood it can carry, not on the gas milage it gets.

 

#242 You know you are a Lumberjock when you go through withdrawls when the Lumberjocks wesite crashes.

#243 You know you are a Lumberjock when you check every 5 minutes to see if the Lumberjocks website is back up after it crashes.

 

#244 You know you are a Lumberjock when you start planting trees….After, already having planned out the kitchen cabinets you're going to build once they become fully grown trees…...(I should live so long!)

None-the-less --> Guilty!

 

#245 You know you are a lumberjock when you call another LumberJock and talk for an hour because you are having withdrawal symptoms because your favorite web site is down.

Thanks for calling JockMike2.

 

#246 _You know your a Lumberjock when you go out to kick the neighbors cat when the website is down.

Then you remember, The neighbor doesn't even own have a cat._

 

I have to apologize for my last entry,
I was only trying to be funny. I've never kicked a cat in my life. All of our neighbors cats seem to congregate in our back yard. They love our back yard, it's a regular cat sanctuary.

 

It never crossed my mind that you would kick a cat..
I thought it was showing the desperation that we reached while waiting for LJ to come back online.
I laughed.

 

I didn't suffer any withdrawals at all… I talked to Debbie via Instant messenger… you ALL should have at least one Lumberjock on instant messenger… saves long distance charges

 

When you wake up at 5:30 am, and the first thought you have is:

"how long can I wait this morning to have a soda pop before I have to admit that I'm an addict…..and….I wonder if I have any new "Lumberjock Notifier" emails!"

 

#247 I agree with Obi - You know you are a Lumberjock when you have Debbie in your Instant Messenger… and believe me it's a lot of fun

 

#248 You know you are a Lumberjock when you buy something in our LJ woodworking store each month (shameless plug I admit LOL)

 

hahaha you know you are a saleman when …..... you post a #248 lol!!

 

#249 You know your a lumber jock when you spend $500 on wood and new tools to complete a project for your wife that you could have just bought for $75 at the local furniture store.

 

#250 You know you're a lumberjock when early in your marriage your non-woodworking spouse had nothing but praise, and oooos and ahhhhs. for everything you built Yet, instead of enjoying and accepting the praise, you trained a critic. You would say, "Thanks, but I'm not happy about this . . . " And you would point out a joint with a 1/16" gap or a blem in the finish in an out-of-the-way spot or a dried glue spot you missed that didn't take stain or point out a barely visible repair that covered a mistake.

And now . . . you invite your spouse to the shop for a consult on a particular point and you receive several "extra" insghts. "Did you see this?" (Yes, dear) "What happened here?" (Explanation) "Hmmmmm?" (What???! Oh, I wasn't hoping you wouldn't notice that!)

A kiss on the cheek as your spouse departs. "I'm sorry dear, but you trained me!"

"Yes my love, I trained you!"

 

No. 251 (never thought it would get this high of a count!)

"when you work to 3:30am on a project to meet a tight deadline, and before you go to bed, you stop and check to see if any has commented on any of projects, blog, or forum topics!"

There used to be a day here on this site when a jock could post a new project and it would stay up on the front page of the projects for a few days. Now, it is gone in a matter of hours! Isn't it great, keep posting!!

Mark

 

Comment: What do you mean hours, now it's minutes.

 

Wow! That's a read and a half! LOL

 

No. 252 you might be a lumber jock if your "Dream Home" is above the shop

 

Glad to hear you got your loft in!

 

Actually, Dennis, I just got started. I've built three floor joists and tomorrow go get more material. And straps, and work on my next router table, and continue working on the cabinet doors for the church cabinets, and keep cleaning the shop and finding a place for everything so I can put everything in it's place.

 

#253 "If even the suit you wear to weddings and funerals has a little glue spot on it"

 

oh say it isn't so !!!! lol
