Quitting the business

OK it's time to hang 'em up. 20 years in the SG business has been fun, but without my mold making instructional tape, there's simply no more reason to go on. Sure I can solder, and cut, and foil, and injest lead fumes and particles. I can adjust the thermostat on my heat and AC. I can open the door for the postman, and meter readers. I can take an hour to sell a customer a roll of copper foil. I can answer my telephone and scrath my ass at the same time. But...... am I making those hydro-supersonicfragilistic-perm molds up to snuff? I guess I'll never know. Of course there's only one person in the entire world that can spare me this life threatening perdicament. His namesake, much like his torturing of me, comes from the evil Star Wars villain that he has become. Sometimes I feel like Princess Lea, shackled to his side, waiting..... waiting for that tape to arrive. This is goodbye......

free your mind and the knowledge will assimilate

Blasphemy!! Never happen!! The information too far reaching and technical for the mere mortal to comprehend "without the tape"! Ha, never, not in a million years, never.

fortunately I am finished removing the elusive church windows, (and at 52 have decided I no longer will be climbing up and down scaffolding), so I can finish the details, copy from camera to VHS, and ship it out. If you don't have it by Sat., you can skip sending the scotch. Actually, I didn't want the booze anyway, I wanted the bottle!!

Damn, and I was trying to figure out a way to keep the bottle and ship the contents in a baggie? If you really want that decanter, maybe we can trade for some of those books of yours that are collecting dust? Call me and we'll discuss.

Will do, but they are down in value right now.

The only dust I noticed was from the mold making demo he did for me. It was great. We should have had the camera running.

I think what Mr. Hut is holding out for is a souvenir tee-shirt from a tour of the Armstrong Glass facility and a certain re-bar bender.

Maybe, JK, if you were to send ME the decanter, I could be persuaded to forward said items to Mr. Hut and you'd then get your tape. Maybe?

Not a chance,have already sent out the leg breakers to collect those debts.

You GOT your tape, you just need to practice with lead free glass, starphire is nice.

now that you have your blood in order you can get back to work and quit being so helpful and stirring up the pot.

Hate to be the reason for anyone going out of business, so if he doesn't get it shortly, I'm sure he can open a tavern, that only sells scotch.

Its goin in Priority Mail TODAY, so quit cryin' and send me a bottle! and a blank check! of course, if your bank account looks like mine, its worthless!

Well isn't that the best time for me to trade? My bottles are skyrocketing!

Ahh , but "the tape" seems to be in great demand, therefore things take on a whole new light.

I'm sure we can work it out. What makes things a "good deal" is when everybody walks away happy with what they have done. Nobody wants to walk away feeling they have been had.
