Brag Forum / Cross and Butterfly

« on: February 21, 2014, 08:04:31 pm »

Cross I cut for my granddaughter. It's a pattern from Bubba-N-Tenn, Dec, 2012. Made 2 copies, first one I printed at 100% the 2nd pattern I reduced it by 15%. Cut the butterfly out of the small copy, then the cross and over laid them. Her is the link to the picture.

The Coffee Shop / New ac/heater

« on: February 12, 2014, 08:29:16 pm »

Finally a good deal came my way. I have been looking at a Kenmore AC/ Heater for my shop for about 4 months, The $700. price tag had me on a wait list. Today went to Sears to order one and it was on sell for $600. After talking with the sells man for a few minutes he said he had one in stock but they were sending it back because it had a dent on the side. After looking it over it was a small dent that didn't harm any inside coils. He knocked $120.00 off and still gave me a full warrantee. Tax and everything just over $500.. Now I'm a happy cutter.

The Coffee Shop / Sign in an Indiana store front window

« on: November 06, 2013, 09:56:22 am »

Sign in an Indiana store front window:

'WE WOULD RATHER DO BUSINESS WITH PRESIDENT OBAMA, NANCY PELOSI, HARRY REID, ALL THE ELITES OF CONGRESS, THE MASS MEDIA, AND HOLLYWOOD, THAN WITH ONE CONSERVATIVE AMERICAN!'

This sign was prominently displayed in the window of a Whiting, Indiana business.

You may be outraged at the thought of such an inflammatory statement
However, we are a society which holds Freedom of Speech as perhaps our greatest liberty. And after all, it is just a sign.
You may ask, what kind of business would dare post such a sign?
