Very funny.  :D Guess I could have said "rotate" or "adjust". Actually in railroad terms it would be "set throttle to run 7" or "use the company notch", but I didn't want to sound too "engineerish".

Since you mentioned using a lathe, I have visions of....never mind I promised not to tell. LOL..

Rick, you have to understand Canuck humor. Of course, I don't understand it either.  ???     We say UH?, they say EH?

Bob, your pun reminded of what William Bendix used to say in his 1950s TV series, "The Life of Riley":  "What a revoltin' development this is!"  :D

Bob, all I know about Canada is the water swirls the wrong way if you flush the crapper or watch it go down the drain.


I guess I better go get started on my taxes before the deadline arrives.  I'm stumped though, and TurboTax has no input field for all my new wealth.  I need to know how to declare the 80% of AIG I recenty acquired.  I'll call U.S. Guv'ment tech tomorrow and find out.

Fill your hoppers...

"Revolting Development" - does that have something to do with recharging batteries in a dark room??

And OlieRick, maybe I should have bought an American lathe.  The one I have is from Asia, and you have to stand on the ceiling to operate it.  And it doesn't help that all the clocks in my shop are digital (clockwise? counterclockwise?  What's all that about, eh??)
Growing older is mandatory but growing up is optional.

I imagine you have an Asian lathe for the same reason they started placing them in the shop I worked in - economics, so they said. Little did they know they weren't saving dollars - they were saving some kind of some currency based on the metric system.  As if the whole world except the US was metric system based! The ceiling mounted units are ok as long as you get a verticle station machine - not horizontal. Sorry about your digital clocks - that was my poor choice for an analogy.  Take heart, you could have metric digital clocks.  One last point, "Uh..."


Happy trails to you
Until we meet again.
Happy Trails to you
Keep Smiling until then.
