My wife asked me what I was doing with those short straws, I wonder what she was thinking?

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?

Macdonalds straws fit the.341 belly grommet perfectly. Go in, get a Happy meal with about 40 straws. Cut them as needed in 1 1/2 inch bits, slide them into the grommet over the swivel. 40 straws is a 5 year supply for me. I like the shrink tube idea, maybe for the tail or nose wrap. Big stuff for lips, maybe. Thanks.

Quit smoking 22 years ago. coughing up blood and diagnostics showed from lung. They Removed 1/3 and no cancer but a mass removed. Doing fine and the Cabin fever has almost killed me since but still kicking and sure glad to have my shop to keep me busy as
new season ahead. Paint fumes? Lathe dust? epoxy? who knows but I wear a Evaporator about as much as I do my glasses as it is a life saver. So builders stay protected when using anything that is harmful
