Bought 'meself' a present yesterday. Thought to the break (by it) the shitty mood I'm in the last two weeks.

Project's up (soon).. a book-case.
are you planning to build, repair or hang something with this?

^ Planning to build. Home-made and 'freshly' so. Think I'll have the steps to take in my head already.

B follows a.. and c, d, e, etc. after that..

When finished, give it some time, I'll probsy post a picture of it.

Bought a used MacBook Pro, a mid-2010 15.4". It's got a solid state disk that makes computing a lot faster.

Just for that I am not going to mail you half the pizza.  :finger: :zoinks: :hyke:
That whole pizza was in your stomach hours ago, who you trying to fool?  :P
Maybe he will let you lick the cheese from inside the box? There's always some stuck to the inside. and It is suitable for mailing,  that cheese is indestructible!

  That's true, when melted cheese gets really dry it's like a weapon!  :laugh:

I just ordered a very good condition hardcover* edition of Hitler's Children: Story Of The Baader - Meinhoff Terrorist Gang by Jillian Becker and Everyone Talks About The Weather ... We Don't: The Writings Of Ulrike Meinhoff from Amazon. I read Hitler's Children in the mid 1980s. I am looking forward to reading it again.

There is one guy still left from Baader-Meinhof, although he has become a Nazi in the 21 Century. The irony.

They had balls. The Weather Underground here in the US was mainly a bunch of wannabes wanted for crap like Conspiracy To Riot. Jane Alpert by herself destroyed more shit than the Weather Underground. Hypothetically I believe it would be more productive to walk up to shake a Congressman's hand than publishing manifestos. Renato Curcio and his Red Brigades seriously destabilized Italy very well. Of course it helps that Italy is governed by a bunch of monkeys trying to fuck a football.

Project's up (soon).. a book-case.

After using one you start to think about how you got things done before you had it.

Today I bought some old tools, cat food and a N64

Only one just one controller also but I have about 25 games at the moment and a few extra controlers.  Game stuff sells well and of course I must test everything,  I know it's hard work but someone has to do it :green:

I'm still testing that Wii I  curbed a few weeks back.  :LOL:

Well, it's not my first cordless drill (it's my fourth, this one/the first with Lithium-ion batteries though) but I know exactly what you mean.

Um, also, those days where the muscles of your forearm ache because of all the 'screwdriving' one's being doing earlier.

Albeit my love or preference for the old-fashioned hand-tools this cordless tool makes perfect sense (to use) now.
