Rubi's got the reins for a week

Just some of what makes this place ... Special. Great People that do Fun and Serious, Information and Inform, Our Favorite Knives and so much more...... How many places are there like that?
I submit - not many.

Wonder why we come - HERE ;)

I decided only to join in the conversations here after meeting some very cool people associated with the products I hold in such high esteem. Prior to that I was content reading others posts and lurking.

My "Arrival" here, very much the same as yours N2K. I imagine several others may nod their heads as well "Yup, Me Too"

Some, come and go - possibly only needing brief answers to simple issues but, then there are those who come and stay - coming back increasingly more frequently " Honey, are you on that computer again!?" Staying a little longer each time "Honey, are you STILL on that computer?"
Hey, could be worse. Golf takes up way more time and money (Yep, that's what I tell myself) :)
 
There's gotta be a reason I check this forum throughout most days as time allows. It's not to puff my ego or for self-serving reasons...but there is a draw to this this community that has me wanting to assist with most questions and of course, compliment those who share their fondness of common items.
 
I totally agree with the draw to this site, and frequent checks throughout the day. Schedule use to be first thing in AM make coffee, read Major papers on line, check some briefings, respond to emails then check Hinderer sub forum. Now it has gravitated to check forum while making coffe, work stuff, regional and then national papers.

Seems this forum is mental salve in many respects and interactions with legitimate contributors is both informative and definitely entertaining! Having Rick and Rob so closely connected to us is so refreshing even if Rob posts the most teasing out of reach pictures!
 
And here I am again, checking this very forum to see how things are going.

My news no longer comes from a printed paper...if its printed it's already happened. Currently, my phone blows up with push notifications and the like. It's a constant inflow of information that I know has both positive and negative aspects.
 
Hey Rubi how are you holding up under the pressure, did your 8:00 AM production mtg go okay? If you need help going through inventory, well just a thought.
 
I have wallpapered both bathrooms, I used newspaper and toilet paper
Thought that would be both entertaining as we'll as useful (in a pinch).
Now I am looking for cappuccino/espresso/slurpee maker for the shop.
Busy busy busy
 
You got me Laughing on that response! Hey while your still in the bathrooms don't forget to fill the hair lube container for Rob O. I can feel his piercing eyes looking at me now!

Well funny you would mention that F.O. - when I got done with the two bathrooms I thought, that's odd I didn't see any hair care products
hmmmm. So I went looking.
Out back behind the shop is a Big building about 60'x40' light blue with a white top. I had to have a closer look.
Sign on the door said, "PRIVATE Keep OUT" so I went in.
Dark....Empty -nothin.
I felt around for a switch and on came a single spotlight shining down on a throne in the middle of the floor. Now, I know "throne" is slang for crapper which I think is also slang for toilet BUT this was really a throne. Wow! A Big fancy crapper/throne thingy inside its own Private porto-potty building This Has to Be Robs!
I walk in and Rammstein starts pounding a heavy metal version of "Hail to the Chief" outta speakers in the ceiling!! Scared the crap out of me:eek: I mean really! I reflexively shot both arms skyward in Peace symbols/"don't kill me" as I ran full speed for the throne Hoping it was what I thought it was. Flipped up the seat and it shoots me right in the face with a jet of water! Holy Smokes Why did Rob leave his Water Pic THERE! I thought! Is he really that good at multi-tasking? Guy is a both efficient and tidy.
I sit down and do my business. Music had stopped (thank God) then as if it "knew" I was done - the Damn Water Cannon fires again except this time it didn't hit me in the face:eek: I thought, well now I know why he left that there. After a couple more shots just for fun....I got to doing what I came to do.
I bought one of those Jet Powered hand dryers at the store that had the espresso/cappucino/slurpee maker.
I had this idea to mount it directly over the throne and reverse the wires So when Rob was doing his business (teeth and all) he could hit a button and BooM! the Jet would fire (not the water one) the one above and 1000mph wind suck would tune up his coif (thats French for hair)!! He is going to be so Surprised!! Probably more than I was after gettin' hit with the water.
So, that is this afternoons project:)
I have to figure how I'm gonna test it. Can't have the Jet sucker going off at the same time the water cannon fires or who knows what would happen and with my "hair-do" I can't test it.
They'd find me next week dangling from the ceiling contraption like some demented Dan Ackroyd stunt double from "ConeHeads".
Busy busy busy:)

There is no product in that signature quiff, it is what it is.
 
Rubi, that's one hell of a visual!


As for Mr. O.'s hair...I could not use a French word for the hair of a man that does not back down.



Disclaimer....please take no offense to the French statement it speaks to changes in Mil. history of that country. I do know they were key in helping the USA become a reality and did great things in history.
 
Rubi that was totally visual overload, where in God's name do you come up with this stuff! It is going to take a few reads to fully appreciate this one. Love the narrative.:)
 
OMG! Don't forget the disco ball in the shop area...I hear Rick likes to listen to "Xanadu" when he's grinding....

It's all just rumors until you see it with your own eyes. I'll do some research and let you know what comes of it.
