    I have done so much with so little for so long I am now qualified to do anything with nothing......

    P.S. If you are interested in plans for any project that I post, just put some money in an envelope and mail it to me and I will keep it.

    Shelly, Shelly, Shelly........

    The easy part is turning them on, the HARD part is turning them off!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Once you do take the plunge, trust me, you will look back and say "Why did I wait so long!!!

    Just make sure you have all your flat work done before you turn it on, because you may never get back to it!

    This is Frank in Wisconsin; head bowed reverently, hands clasped in prayer, beseeching guidance from the Alturnity One:

    “Oh Wholly One with all bonker round and vessel forms, how has it come to this time when accomplished and wannabe turners alike cast tantalizing invitations towards me, enjoining me to share in delights that are beyond both my wildest dreams and capacity for enjoyment???

    While I admit to having appreciated the wild and free beauty released and expressed in turner’s works here on the Creek, I promise you in all sincerity that I never once considered entering the whorley path of the vortex that ultimately consumes them.

    Please oh Whollyness, repel me from thy inward drawing force, which lurks as a dark and hidden shadow beneath the more apparent centrifugalality of thy nature.”

    “Or should I jes get a lathe, and be done with it now?”

    HELP!!!
    Frank

    Poor Frank.....Hands clasped and head bowed in fervent prayer as the vortex grabs his feet.....spinning deep into the abyssal...he suddenly throws his hands skyward, and in his last attempt to plea for a seemingly fleeting scrap of strength, can only utter....Yeeeee Hahhhh!!!! See ya on the other side Frank!

    Frank just buy the lathe. It is futile to resist. Be done with it man.

    Never put off until tomorrow what you can do the day after tomorrow.

    To succeed in life, you need three things: a wishbone, a backbone and a funnybone.

    Oh my Most Holey and Twisted One, whom I have willingly served as thy faithful supplicant by preening the feathers and combing the bark of those you have drawn into thy inexorably consuming vortex; ahh, how little didst I suspect until today that I was being groomed for that very whorlly ride myself.
    HEEEELLLLLLPP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
