hold that thought, what I was trying to say was that I spurted coffee all over the keyboard and it was typing oddly...  :mrgreen:

I learned the hard way that that even the blue tape can bugger up delicate surfaces >:(  For delicate stuff I've found that the green tape is even better.  That and it's worth it to spend the extra buck and to get the Scotch brand tape :P

Hope my suggestion works out and that it's not a Pig in a poke!  ( Kenny, let me know if you need translation - although your better half should be able to translate ;) )

Opps, sorry Kenny!  Every now and then my brain unleashes something humorous!  Surprises me too!   ;D

May I quote you?  ;D

It's the most profound thought shared that day.... :P

quote me anytime you like, Al... probably the most sense I've made in years...  ;D

I think I had the Polish key on...

Buzz... Pig in a poke...? something to do with the name of Sting's old band...?  :P

Buying something without seeing it first!  Don't ask me where it came from!!!!

Quote from: WikipediaPig-in-a-poke is an idiom that refers to a confidence trick originating in the Late Middle Ages, when meat was scarce but cats were not.

The scheme entailed the sale of a suckling pig in a poke (bag). The wriggling bag would actually contain a cat (not particularly prized as a source of meat) that was sold to the victim in an unopened bag. The French term acheter (un) chat en poche (to buy a cat in a bag) refers to an actual sale of this nature, as do many European equivalents, while the English expression refers to the appearance of the trick.

Also see: "Don't let the cat out of the bag!"

Slight word nerd here. :)

Makes sense George!  Guess I should have checked Wiki!

I'm curious, how's the suntan coming along or is it not?

Just OK.  It darkened up some of the surrounding area where the sun leaked under the newspaper and didn't change the light stripe as much as I'd like.  I'm thinking about making adjustments when I stain or paint and not worry about it too much.

Bummer, sorry it didn't get it to where it needed to be :sad:  But, now you can justify the purchase of an airbrush to blend the area properly!

Nothing that a new tool purchase can't fix ;)

I like the way you think.  There's always room for a new tool.  I might put it out again and do the entire top.

Hmm... more tools for the shed... err... best not wander that path at the moment... I'm in enough deep brown stuff as it is... ;D
