The Coffee Shop / Hawaiian Story from my Nephew....LOL
« on: March 26, 2011, 12:46:07 pm »
You guys might know this story already, but...........
 This happened about a month ago just outside of Oluwalu befo da Pali .
 It sounds like a Hawaiian Legend.

 This haole tourist was on the side of the road, hitchhiking on a real
 dark night in the middle of a rain storm. Time passed slowly and no
 cars went by. It was raining so hard he could hardly see his hand in
 front of his face.

Suddenly he saw a car moving slowly, approaching and appearing ghost
 like in the rain. It slowly and silently crept toward him and stopped.
 Wanting a ride real bad the guy jumped in the car and closed the door;
 only then did he realize that there was nobody behind the wheel, and
 no sound of an engine .
 
Again the car go slowly forward and the guy was too scared to think of
 jumping out and running. The guy saw that the car was approaching the
Pali and the sharp curves. da guy was still too scared to jump out, so
 he started to pray and began begging for his life; he was sure the
 ghost car would go off the road and into the ocean and he would drown!

 But just before the curve, a shadowy figure appeared at the driver's
 window and a hand reached in and turned the steering wheel, guiding
 the car safely around the curves. Then, just as silently, the hand
 disappeared through the window and the hitchhiker was alone again!
 Paralyzed with fear, the guy watched the hand reappear every time they
 reached another curve.
 
Finally the guy, scared to near death, had all he could take and
 jumped out of the car and ran and ran all the way to Malaea. Wet and
 scared, he go into Buzz's and ordered two Primo Beer, then told
 everybody about the ghost experience.
 
Nobody say one word and everybody get chicken skin when they realized
 the guy was telling the truth and was not lolo or drunk.
 
About half an hour later two blahlahs walked into the bar and one says
 to the other, 'Look Kimo, ass da buggah that rode in our car when we
 wuz pushin it in the rain.'
 
I thought we all could use a good laugh to begin our day.

General Scroll Saw Talk / The Best Blade to Use....
« on: March 10, 2011, 04:04:16 pm »
I know you all say there is no Dumb question, but I am getting into a new phase of scroll projects.  Using 1/8" Baltic Birch Ply. 
     Is there a formula of which blade to use for how many is stacked?
My blade chart states to use a #5 or #6 (haven't even heard of a #6) for
1/2" wood.  I use FD blades and kind of want to stack 8 and the chart states to use a #7.  Wow!  My #7 is pretty aggressive.  Can't imagine cutting the tiny lil inside cuts with this.  Anyway I would just Love to hear all of your feelings.  Thanks in Advance....  Danny  :+}

BAPTIST DINNER

A group of country friends from the Cottonwood Baptist Church wanted to get together on a regular basis, socialize, and play games.

The lady of the house was to prepare the meal. When it came time for Al and Janet to be the hosts - Janet wanted to outdo all the others.


Janet decided to have mushroom-smothered steak. But, mushrooms are expensive.
She then told her husband, "No mushrooms. They are too high."

He said, "Why don't you go down in the pasture and pick some of those mushrooms? There are plenty in the creek bed."

She said, "No, some wild mushrooms are poison."

He said, "Well, I see varmints eating them and they're OK.

So Janet decided to give it a try. She picked a bunch, washed, sliced, and diced them for her smothered steak.

Then she went out on the back porch and gave Ol' Spot (the yard dog) a double handful. Ol' Spot ate every bite.

All morning long, Janet watched Ol' Spot and the wild mushrooms didn't seem to affect him, so she decided to use them. The meal was a great success, and Janet even hired a helper lady from town to help her serve. She had on a white apron and a fancy little cap on her head.


After everyone had finished, they relaxed, socialized, and played 42 & Mexican dominoes.

About then, the helper lady from town, came in and whispered in Janet's ear. She said, "Mrs. Williams, Ol' Spot just died." Janet went into hysterics. After she finally calmed down, she called the doctor and told him what had happened.

The doctor said, "That's bad, but I think we can take care of it.
I will call for an ambulance and I will be there as quick as possible. We'll give everyone enemas and we will pump out everyone's stomach Everything will be fine. Just keep them calm."

Soon they could hear the siren as the ambulance was coming down the road. The EMTs & the doctor had their suitcases, syringes, and a stomach pump.

One by one, they took each person into the bathroom, gave them an enema and pumped out their stomach. After the last one was finished, the doctor came out and said, "I think everything will be fine now, and he left."

They were all looking pretty weak sitting around the living room and about this time, the helper lady came in and said,

"You know that fellow that ran over Ol' Spot never even stopped.?

The Coffee Shop / A Way to Make each Day Better....:+}
« on: February 09, 2011, 10:06:40 am »
It?s amazing how taking a few minutes at the start of each day to plan and set your thoughts in the right direction can help you get ahead and empower you to accomplish so much more.

But too often, people get so caught up in the activity of life that they tend to just ?go with the flow? instead. Of course, I?m not saying we shouldn?t be flexible, but when it comes to your life, you should be the one setting the flow. Of course, unexpected things happen. Our days won?t always go according to plan, but if you?ll take time each day to set your heart and mind in the right direction, you?ll be equipped for whatever comes your way!

Just a little Food For Thot....  Danny  :+}
