FTFoJ part II contest

No rules, no purchase neccessary, user assumes all risks etc etc


I'm not a gifted smith or anything, far from it..I just wanted to test out my new to me post vise that I forged some crap on and am just happy to send it along to you.

All you get to do is post a funny story or joke or whatever and the winner will get some metal crap (a pipe tool and a crap bottle opener I forged with no eye for quality and maybe a tin of tobacco if legal to ship to you)

Happy Thanksgiving, happy birthday, festivus and/or merry Christmas!

I was in the waiting room while Rita had her procedure this weekend and the hospital had a fire alarm on one of the floors below us. Their super secret code to alert their staff was to broadcast "Paging Dr. Pyro, Dr. Pyro to floor 7" over and over again.

Very subtle.

One time when my eldest, now 18, was probably around 4, I was pushing her around Target in a cart. On one of the many occasions while we were waiting on mom to find what she needed, we were using the hangers from the clothes as hook hands and battling like pirates. I'd growl arrr and she'd growl arrr and we'd go at it. Then at some point mom returns and my eldest, with the loudest cutest voice shouts for all the world to hear, "Mom look! WE'RE HOOKERS!!"

One time when my eldest, who's now 30ish, was probably around 4, I taught her the 'loosey lefty righty tighty' mnemonic phrase to remember how threads work. She told Mrs FredS that I showed her "how to screw".

One of your icons has a frickin' laserbeam on it's head. Or maybe laserbeam eyes - hard to tell...
