I suppose visitors can learn a lot about a household by noticing what reading material is kept on hand for prolonged bathroom visits... What's in YOUR basket?

New Hobby

So, I've recently taken up a new hobby - Knifemaking. Or rather knife-handling, as I buy premade knife blades and add handles to them. Everybody says, are you gonna sell them? We'll see. I think they need to be a lot more creative and unique to get enough out of them to cover my time and materials. For now it's fun. And they make great Christmas presents!

Some examples...

We recently discovered that my Grandfather, Peter, was granted a patent on a bread slicing machine. He never mentioned it that Mom knows of, so he may have never known it was awarded as he had moved from the address it was registered to before the notification arrived. Cool!

Dreamin'

So, I would really like to have a house like this with a courtyard... only some place warm!
The Casita and Garage #1 would be my man-cave and workshop. Also would maybe make Garage #2 a pull-through.

Dear Mr. Pope,
We regret to inform you that you do not qualify for pension benefits... well, you would if we had a pension plan... but we never anticipated needing one. We understand the Rome Wal-mart is hiring greeters. Thank you for your inquiry.
Best wishes in your future endeavors,
