Quilting is a REAL MAN's job, women can't do it!!!

Diggin' for pitchblende? Obviously, you've never seen our bathroom after our kids' sleepovers. Diggin' for pitfchblende t'ain't nothin' compared to cleanin' what 4 13 yo girls and 4 10 yo boys can do in a mere 9x6 bathroom. ;-)

I'm offering FREE patterns and a FREE eZine full of patterns, tips, techniques, and recipes!!

Victor, I'm not sure what's wrong, hun, but it's probably nothing that a dish of good ice cream and a cup of good coffee won't make feel all better.

In the meantime, I think I have some pitchblende around here somewhere, probably in my sewing room lost under the stash.

I must say, I think Victor is on to something. So, in order to further the evolution of womanly and manly work definitions, I respectfully request that all you women send me your quilting stashes. I, as you know, have plenty of tools in my basement. for every complete stash that is sent to me, I will return to the sender, Post paid no less, your choice of one pick or one shovel. In the event of a particularly large stash shipment, the offer is increases to both a pick and a shovel, but this is dependent on the assessment of myself and a panel of impartial judges, my wife and my dog. They, being truly impartial, will render the verdict as final and not open to interpretation. Thanking you in advance for taking advantage of this kind and generous offer, I remain, I hope, your friend and trusted helpmate in all things related to manly and womanly job classifications.

Well, as an admirer of Marie Curie, I'll think about this, John. One snag about your assessment panel - it could end in a tie. I think we should have one of our DH's join them. No? . In message , John writes

Dear John, Be sure to save yourself at least one shovel. You'll need it to move all the incoming stashes! Liz

He might delegate! Both his wife and his dog are female >gg< . In message , Liz Megerle writes

Now, just hold up here a minute. Before we can adequately address Victor's challenge, we must decide what is a REAL man. Before John jumps in to take over quilting for us, I think we need to establish a proper definition of 'real'. As opposed to what? A fake man? fantasy man? amateur man? doubtful man? These questions must be pondered seriously . . . for at least a minute anyway. Polly

Part-time man? Imitation man? Instant man? Man in a can?

ladies, gentlemen and other usenet denizens that may be passing through,

Victor is a naughty crossposting troll. While I must agree that his nonsense is fodder for much merriment, do please trim his trophy room (abg.mampf) out of the headers!

Just look at the address box in your reply window, and delete or backspace out abg.mampf where it occurs.

It wasn't a total waste of a message. It made me look up the word, pitchblende! I learned something today!

Good try John!

Goes without saying Polly - but I'm glad you did! . In message , Polly Esther writes

Thank you for the instructions. That's very helpful. It's so nice to have members who can help eliminate (or lessen) problems caused by unwelcome posts. I debated about putting up any responses, but posted anyway. I'll know next time.

Sorry to have missed the opportunity, Nightmist. I never have all headers showing - only just learned how to see them at all! It was obviously meant naughtily; but sometimes making fun of the mischief-maker is a good ploy. Thanks for this info. Next time one is sniffed, we'll know what to do. .

Catch it and cook it, in good ole RCTQ fashion - WITH CHOCOLATE! :d
