I could live with the clock, but the mobile designer's imagination obviously ran out before he got to the keypad.  I'm thinking gold leaf, with fur edging.

If the salt & pepper thing were one piece I would think them wonderful for an experiment, see, if both are attached the user must cover the holes in one side to use the other. I can imagine the uncomfortable looks of the people at the dinner table first considering to use it and then having to grab a tit and shake in order to use it.

Why am I thinking this stuff?  :mrgreen: :devil2: :o :P

I don't know, any more than why I am also thinking the same stuff.

Today I boosted the Swedish economy.  No, not the usual massive porn imports, but large quantitities of Akzo-Nobel wood preservative plastered all over my parents' house.


Thank you!
for supporting our economy! ;D

Anything to get the name Nobel in the same context as mine.

Drank 4 litres of water (plus two cups of coffee and an energy drink) and peed only twice.  It were HOT out today, and I was working outdoors for 10 hours out of the 14.

Same context - you got plastered all over your parents' house?  I usually save that for Christmastime. :mrgreen:
WWDDD?

I've been on a committee for a year now, planning a town festival celebrating 250 years in our county. We're having a parade, music, food, historic exhibits, games, etc. Somehow I managed to get volunteered to create the arts and crafts show. I helped with one about 12 years ago and was the only one who admitted to knowing how to do it. It's been lots of work to find crafters and organize their information, collect money (it all goes to our local historical society), map out the area and be the go-to person for all questions and decisions about it.

Well, the thing is finally on for tomorrow, and I'll be so glad when it's over. Today I went out and made chalk outlines of all the crafter spaces with the most ungainly contraption in the world, a field liner from our local community center. I had assumed it was going to be one of those things that measures distances with a wheel, and that you can switch on and off easily, but lo, it was not. I had to measure each space with a blinkin' tape measure, and struggle with dispenser, which kept clogging with cement-like chalk because the grass was wet. Thought I'd have a heart attack pushing that bugger around, but I lived.

It took three hours, but it's done! Now all I have to do is wake up at dawn and go out with Vendor parking signs, park the vendor's cars, help them find their spaces, and man the information booth from 9 until 3. Then pick up any junk that people leave behind, and I'm through with this whole gig!

Luckily, the weather is supposed to be just lovely here tomorrow, so I am hoping it will be a terrific day for everyone and it'll all be worth it. Our little town so seldom has anything interesting happen in it, this is a big deal for us. So I am glad to help, if exhausted.

Good luck Opsa! But I don't think you need it it sounds like you are on top of this. :)

It must be nice to be so involved with your community.

Don't get too respectable, Pachy, we won't know what to do with you!  ;)

UPDATE: Saturday went great! The weather was wonderful, and all the crafters were pleasant to one another, had no "issues", left no trash to clean up and were very happy!

Still coming down from it!

LOL, I'm discorporating next week.  I did get a haircut yesterday, but it was a free and not particularly good one.

WWDDD?

I thought only the army and prison service gave free haircuts.
