Woodworking for fun and profit

I've heard of Jim Morgan and his simple and effective strategy to make money using his basic woodworking skills. I know a retired couple here in town who spend many weekends, traveling to various venues where they can sell the products they make during the Winter months. They travel, and they make a nice supplemental income.

Jim started his woodworking business with NO capital, a few shop tools, and a lot of nerve, in a small 10x20 foot space and grew it into a 1,400 space in the first few months while still remaining as a one-person business!

      The percentage of each past president's cabinet who had worked in the private business sector prior to their appointment to the cabinet. You know what the private business sector is a real-life business, not a government job.  Here are the percentages.
 
           T. Roosevelt.................... 38%
           Taft.................................. 40%
             Wilson ........................... 52%
            Harding........................... 49%
            Coolidge......................... 48%
            Hoover............................ 42%
            F. Roosevelt................... 50%
            Truman........................... 50%
            Eisenhower................ .... 57%
            Kennedy......................... 30%
            Johnson.......................... 47%
            Nixon.............................. 53%
            Ford................................ 42%
            Carter............................. 32%

            Reagan........................... 56%
            GH Bush......................... 51%
             Clinton .......................... 39%
            GW Bush........................ 55%
            Obama................ 8%
 
           This helps to explain the incompetence of this administration: only 8% of them have ever worked in private business!

           That's right!  Only eight percent---the least, by far, of the last 19 presidents!  And these people are trying to tell our big corporations how to run their business?

           How can the president of a major nation and society, the one with the most successful economic system in world history, stand and talk about business when he's never worked for one?  Or about jobs when he has never really had one?  And when it's the same for 92% of his senior staff and closest advisers?  They've spent most of their time in academia, government and/or non-profit jobs or as "community organizers."  They should have been in an employment line.
          

An apology to all the young ladies ......

I thoroughly enjoy watching Women's College Softball, one of the few "pure" sports left. When they lose they are sad and when they win they are happy, and they all seem to be thoroughly enjoying what they are doing, and having a great time doing it, and, they don't seem to be controlled by TV.

But I owe them all an apology, especially the Michigan Softball Team, the team I followed the most.

We had a "dish" installed last week, not sure if I like it or not. My wife did it, not me. Way to complicated for me to figure out. For 70 years, I could hit the 4, 6, or 10  button and watch TV. Recently, those three, plus 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 955 and 939, and one soothing music channel, and that was all I needed,

I have watched most all of the games in our back room, on the TV I have there. I could not help but notice that they were recruiting what I called "fire plugs."  On the short side, heavy thighs and legs, and they all seemed to be playing gals with like builds.

Today I watched a game on the TV in the living room, watched two teams who all seemed to have average to tall players, on the slim side.

Then I went back to the back room, and I put the picture on NORMAL. They all got taller, thinner, more attractive and much more athletic looking.

So, my apologies for thinking you were all short and stubby. Wonder what the basketball players will look like?
