Steamin' Hot Humpday! Triviola Time
Forget frying eggs on the sidewalk, I'm thinking of baking a pizza. Man it hot here in corn country!
Hey, we all depend on wood to pursue our mutual interests. So to protect our forest assets there are conservation groups out there trying to keep logging in check. What was the first organization to protect forests in America?

Re: Steamin' Hot Humpday! Triviola Time
Normally I don't Google and cheat, but I am thinking of running for political office in 2008 so I feel I need all the practice I can get to compete with all the others who may run. I did ask permission, trhough, before posting. Defineatly not politician procedure. Have to work on that.
Look again at the time Tommy
Should I go harumph or what? ;-))
That's all right Tom, I didn't need that Unisaw anyway...it's to heavy to move back and forth to make crosscuts.
