Hope it's been a great one Naaman! Cheers!

I feel like he's about to experience the wrong side of head control.

First indoor show since covid -- Jeff Tweedy at the Fillmore. He's added another son on backing vocals in addition to the drummer. We also found the poster for the show we saw 20 days before Sophie was born.

Best of luck Kerry!

Hope you have a great day, Dan. Cheers!

My take on Spanish style huevos con chorizo with Central American chorizo while in Tahoe for ski week. My eggs slipped before my photo opportunity but the flavor was great and the papas fritas were a big hit. Thanks for the inspiration Antonio and Steve.

Lessening the amount of S&P rub on the brisket always reminds me of the first time I used the secret Brisket Fairy ™ recipe. I could only get a dinky little flat at the local market but I used to entire amount meant for 8 or 10lb briskets that Naaman is used to. It had about a quarter inch of crust and intense salt and pepper flavor. We ate it anyway but it did make your heart race a bit. 😝

May you solve the Wordle today in one guess! Cheers!

And these

I like Butt Rub for pork especially.

Hope it's a great ride! Cheers!

Have a great one Steve -- it's gotta be better than last year, anyway! 🤢 Cheers! <---(frosty sugar-free root beers)

Can you avoid rebuilding a whole saw and figuring out how to sell the old one? I'd opt for conversion if it is straightforward

Are you making stops for the Woodpeckers track you put in? Steve found some flip stops from Rockler if you want to check out a fast cheaper option than the Woodpeckers StealthStop I bought (and haven't received yet). I tried my HVLP sprayer for the first time today. Three coats of shellac on the base and drawer faces of my dad's desk. Super easy and smooth once I got the hang of it. Controls for air flow, material flow, spray pattern, and size of pattern takes a little effort to dial in but it was definitely a lot easier than the alternatives. And a much nicer experience than the airless sprayer I tried a couple of times. In less happy news, I learned that the maker of the 8' LED lights I installed wasn't playing around when they said not to daisy chain more than five lights together. I had one string of seven lights that I had originally intended to split up with an extension cord at some point but forgot all about it. Yesterday that group of lights started flickering and went out. Turns out the first one in the chain was melting. 😳 I've now made sure five is the most and might reduce that to four.

Alden likes to play parts of that travesty for people because of how god awful it is. 😆

Certainly not the best screenwriting in Reacher, but the big giant actor gets more comfortable in the role and we enjoyed the ride, snapped bones and all.

I hope you get to smash some sticks on your big day. Cheers!

The Hammer rep recommended Lenox blades as the best available. I bought a couple of TriMaster carbide blades and a bi-metal ¼ for angles and curves. https://www.bandsawbladesdirect.com/

It's a little nuts that Maynard G. Krebs is more engrained in my brain than Dobie himself, but I never really watched that show and I watched Gilligan's Island a lot. RIP Dobie. RIP RL-S.

... plus expertise in blending wood. 😳 Or maybe a magic ping pong table could fake it in some way.

I think I remember when you bought that car...

I've never done veneer edge banding, but I imagine it would suck. I'm working on my dad's desk for my brother in LA and I'm edge banding in a different way -- with solid 1" x 1 3/4" walnut around the old top and a new walnut ply top. Having fun with clamps on clamps.

I think I'm going to be making some Spanish style huevos con chorizo very soon. 🤤
