I hope Sarge turns out to be as good a dog as Midnight. What a nose! We're training him on bombs now. He's made his bones on Search and Rescue.

Yep! Hubby got it hooked up to the satellite. I can pause live TV as if we had TIVO. Pretty cool.

This could be a bad thing. I have enough trouble working and freeping. Now I can work, freep, and watch TV. Something will have to give..... housework, maybe?

Norm!

[Samwise]

"Can I draw you a beer Norm ?"
"No, I know what they look like. Just pour me one."

"How's a beer sound Norm ?"
"I dunno. I usually finish them before they get a word in."

"What's shaking Norm ?"
"All four cheeks & a couple of chins."

"What would you say to a nice beer Norm ?"
"Going Down ?"

"What's new Norm ?"
"Terrorists, Sam. They've taken over my stomach & they're demanding beer."

"What'll it be Normie ?"
"Just the usual Coach. I'll have a froth of beer & a snorkel."

"What would you say to a beer Normie ?"
"Daddy wuvs you."

All right, I've hinted at this all week. So, we had 120ft of 1 1/2" PVC, 20ft of metal conduit, and about 60 fitting of various types. What're we to do?

How about, build a bed for Spiderboy!

Most of the cutting is done, and the frame is dry fitted.

What a mess.

Inspector Bittygirl is on the job.

Spiderboy admires our work.

Finally assembly begins.

Spiderboy makes the inaugural ladder climb.

Hey, I can touch the ceiling! Dad thinks, "hmmm".

"My God, It's full of stars!", or something like that.

Spiderboy installs the Milky Way under the bed.

Let me just test this thing out here.

Ready to snore. Note Lego Spidey hanging from the ceiling.

[Soaring Feather]

WOW great bed. I see bitty girl in a red eye shot!LOL

Pretty cool, I could use about 4 18" pieces of PVC to finish out the Dowel Rod holder in the shop. Got any Extra???

They plane reminded me that I picked up a few more R/C pics, like this one for example...

re your tag line...

If you have a pic or can get one, I'd like to see a Kinner Sportwing again. My dad was the one who designed the plans for a R/C scaled model. I have no clue whatever happened to them. He used to sell them, way back when.

Tha tag line was for the Freepr Canteen over the weekend but give me a few minutes and I will see what I can do :-)

Tell PE he might want to check out this thread if he hasn't seen it. About the IJN BB Yamato, shoot y'all might like it to :-)

Very cool!

I'll tell ya CJ, Sarge has the attention span of about 10 minutes and that may be stretching it. I can tell he's smart but he's stubborn as an ox.

[snippy_about_it]

My goodness, you'll never have to leave your computer. Can you hook up a microwave to it? Remote vacuum?

Wise words. I know I never have and...so far its working out real well.

[Humal]

Sam and Snippy,
I just love your store! It's probably a good thing you are in Oregon and I'm in Florida. I'd break the bank. :-) Do you ship? A friend in Utah was saying she would like to up grade her backyard bird sanctuary. She also needs a good bird book.

Wishing you the best of luck on your new business.

[Colonel_Flagg]

Hi, Snippy! Thanks so much for the update - good to hear things are going well!

[Samwise]

Given enough PVC, a man can build anything. :^)

I'll have to show these pics to Hubby.
