The ducklings and guinea pigs have been put in together....they are getting on well...

It's a new black oxide Skeletool CX

How cool is that!

Day 6

Crab?

The Air Force was pretty strict about not carrying anything in your pockets that would make your uniform pockets bulge even the slightest bit (including your keys).

The Navy was sort of like that, but their concern was primarily cigarette packs in shirt pockets and Copenhagen et. al. cans in back pockets.

Day 6

Here's the little red Micra that belonged to Mrs. FX again. I'll be carrying it more than I thought, as a way to keep her close to me...she passed away yesterday. It should acquire a fob tomorrow, as fobs make extraction from pockets easier.

  I think I'm a little too scared to put mine to anything but the lightest use!

Stay weird Molly.  Stay weird.   

 

Your last two posts have made me realize Molly and Fisher have some definite character similarities.

The Break Room / Re: Revived Sos Surprise Box GAW ( US edition ).

GAW is not a bad idea.  You could also sign up for the box, invite some family and friends to each pick something out of the box, then add to the box what you'd like to send out?

A few others have done this and I think it is a great idea.  You get to possibly spark some interest in our hobby and share the generosity, while passing on some of your no longer used items.
