    Unhappy Arrrggggh - Breadcrumbs for my birthday

    Man I get no respect all's I got for my birthday were breadcrumbs again Where's the spice cake with sour cream frosting?? The party candles?? The noise makers?? Of course if they lit candles for me, the fire detectors would go off and the rural fire department would be calling out all engines



    Of course, living in Colorado and getting bread crumbs is better than a kick in the pants Especially Colorado breadcrumbs!!



    Well, it warmed up here today and the last trail of breadcrumbs from the woodworking show were exposed. Guess what I got for my 55th birthday A Delta Oscillating Edge Sander Model 31-296 with spindle

    I guess I did get noise makers after all! And the spindle sander does sort of look like a birthday candle Maybe it would be good to have the fire department show up, they could help me lift its 500 pounds off the pallet and place it in position.

    By the way, thanks to those who sent me birthday wishes earlier.

    The significant problems we encounter cannot be solved at the same level of thinking we were at when we created them.

    The penalty for inaccuracy is more work

    Happy Birthday Robert!

    Hey, cute candle!

    In regards to the bread crumbs, they are very special, green bread.
