269399 Elf Wrangler <elfwrangler@g...> 2019‑11‑13 Start Yer Engines!
GG's,

The matches have been mailed and none have bounced back, so I think we have a
clean start. So check your inboxes and/or spam folders and get some shop time
soon!

Shop Time?

Well, as someone who will join those ranks in a few short months, I certainly
hope that's not the case. Otherwise, I may as well just keep working.   :-(

Dennis,

Yon Yorkshireman speaks a profound truth!

IMHE,  when you “retire,” all the repairs, improvements and projects which you
intend to do “someday” but “can’t find the time” suddenly all become due at
once!!!

All those materials and finishing products that you’ve put aside?  They will be
calling your name!

My only recommendation is to do the “weeding out” of duplicate tools and other
shop organization tasks first.

Don’t keep more than “a lifetime supply” of anything, regardless of how long you
expect that to be.
