How to make your wife crackerdog

[Ron Petley]

I went to Lee Valley and they had this book Tools Rare and Ingenious.
It was on sale for a deep discount because the blank back page was wrinkled, so of course I bought it.

So I had to show it to my wife for the obligatoy "oh yes very nice". When I said it was on sale she said she was not surprised. Well I was happy, course, I have had great fun looking at it with the kids, they think it is neat to look at all that old stuff.
Cheers Ron.

I've never heard of the term, "crackerdog." So I googled it.

"...she gets a burst of energy and runs around really fast all over for no reason..."

Too funny:).

I'm sure your wife appreciates the analogy...

Yeas a fun read, PG Wodehouse is also one of my favorites, sort of the neander of books in a way.
My kids will say cracker dog but do no know where it comes from.
Cheers Ron.
