    I went out for a nice "little" trail run this morning just after the sun came up...














    ...in shorts and a singlet! Oh, the inhumanities of winter! Make it go away!
    Then I went and enjoyed the UofA basketball team putting the whoop on Washington with VCamilo!

    Hey Wayne,

    Yeah I've been playing around with furniture design for a while - lately I've been picking up old woodworking machinery with the idea of restoration and use - have a lot of old delta/rockwell equipment including a '48 Unisaw. This is one hobby I keep coming back to so I think it's in my blood. I worked in a cabinet shop for a while when I was in college and did some custom wood carving - I also took a spin a being a framer and trim carpenter - stuff like that comes in really useful when I started doing general contracting work. My problem with a lot of this is I've seen the shoddy work so many people in the building trades do, so I have to do everything myself - it get's done right but takes forever. My life is a bunch of never ending projects, it seems.

    Not a drop of rain or "winter mix" although it was in the 20s this morning - "warmed" up to the 40s by afternoon. I love this time of year in Georgia - kinda makes up for the extreme heat/humidity of the summer. Anyway, I woudn't want to live anywhere that measures snow in feet!

    This is my woodworking blog: http://modernwoodworking.blogspot.com

    A thin, breathable shirt worn by runners usually made of some sort of tech material.
    Definately not something you would want to wear if the temp was much below the 60's except mybe as a base layer.

    LOL, I think you are the first one to "get" my new avatar. Come on, Dub, you I know I love South Park. I actually want to get a T-shirt made that says:

    Parker
    -----------Stone
    --------------------'08

    The options are looking downright horrible for both sides this election.

    Yeah, but at least we have a few seasons of South Park in the works to keep us sane in an insane world.

    Bart
