Approximately 24 hours since Yangdu announced vacation plans. Still anticipating receipt of blade picked up from 06/21 DOTD. Instinctively checking the HI forum for new DOTD postings. Having flashbacks of rat lever-pressing experiment in undergrad psychology class. Leaving town for the weekend where I will have no access to a computer. Cautiously optimistic that I will make it until Monday. One day at a time... One day at a time...

My wife is going to be out of town with the boys for the next week, so it would have been the perfect time to sneak another blade or two in under the radar. Oh, well. :)

Yangdu is long overdue for some R&R. And, as they say, absence makes the heart grow fonder (and keeps the wallet from getting lighter). :)

Eric, you're going to have to stop thinking so linearly when it comes to sharking! The coast is clear, correct? The wife and kids are gone, the beer is in the fridge, pizza is being delivered and it's time for some quality single time. So pull out the old forbidden plastic and just PayPal Yangdu right now with what you _think_ you would have spent today (or this week) had you been a total khuk-crazed pig in the throes of the headiest DOTD sharking frenzy, and let her hang onto it.

Then when the next DOTD comes along and you spot your prize, just have her deduct it from your total. It's a new concept for guys like us called "Prepaid Sharking." When the wife comes back you can explain to her how the cantilevered evaporator seal on the dishwasher blew out and had to be replaced at the cost of one M43, a villager pen knife and an HI Bolo! Damn those things are expensive...!

You think you're the only guy who has been in this situation? :D

(Funny thing is, I'll bet most of you think I'm kidding!) I am, really. No, really! :rolleyes: ;)

i know where there's a BAS for sale ;) though honestly, i'm thinking of pulling the ad and selling other stuff. mmm. need a sunny day to photograph a bunch of stuff.

i saw some website? where someone took a particular model skinner knife and cut off the parts that weren't a nessmuk and had a handy knife at least in shape that way. so much shopping to do in tomorrow :>

Hmmm, prepaid sharking.... now that's something I hadn't considered.
I'll have to look into it. ;)

Maybe we could open accounts in the Nepalese Bank, and the money could be disbursed directly to the kamis as we take delivery of knives.
