Title: Prolific Paul...Pattern Purveyor!!!
Post by: GrayBeard on January 26, 2011, 11:07:33 am
After just downloading the 'umteenth' Pattern by Grampa Paul from the "Pattern Requests" section I started thinking. (dangerous situation at best!)

I am wondering if Grampa Paul is in a Major Conspiracy with the Lumber Industry!

Grampa Paul keeps feeding us these patterns and all the while he could be investing his pounds in the Lumber Futures Market so that as we all grab the pattern and cut away he is sitting in his cottage silently smiling to himself and getting richer by the day.

Think about the possibility.
Make up patterns, put them on the forum, we grab patterns and order MORE wood so we can cut the patterns to sell and give as presents, this means WE have to buy more WOOD and Grampa Paul invests in WOOD Futures!

Almost fits the same scenario as the Printer manufacturers and the ink cartridges!

Or is he investing in HP and Lexmark? OR heaven forbid BOTH Industries!
He's becoming a millionaire by giving something away!!!!
Devious Brit!

See what happens when I start 'thinking'!

A simple profit controlled behavior? that would be too simple!  ::)

He is addicted to this, a maniac total out-of-control!
He uses us as his "wood-monkeys", slaves who think one can't stop cutting as Paul would get upset and scream at us and throw even more patterns - dreadful, gigantic, not printer compatible colored overlay patterns at us!

naa, I'll keep on scrolling - this shall not happen to me!!  ;D ;D
