    Newest pic of book case

    I promised pics of the book case when I got it done. I had started a thread about planing a taper earlier in the week. Well I did it and got it mounted this evening. Then I took a nap We were all pretty tired with all the work

    As promised the newest pic with the other shelves hung. Oh and a few more book's as well.

    Jim, I'd be careful.

    There seems to be a baby "wookie" resting it's head on your shoulder.

    Nice looking "book" case by the way. You weren't kidding when you said "book" either, were you?

    Isn't it dangerous sleeping with Yorkies? They could rip you a new one while you sleep

    Nice work!

    I'm sure Tom Clancy would be proud to know that you hold his book in such high regard...

    I think the book case needs a few more cubbies, or one more BIG book It is a nice looking case, but watch out for that dog

    Actually, if you look closely, you'll see that it is ONE mutant Yorkie with a very long neck. Its neck goes under his arm, around his back and its head is on his shoulder. That's limber!

    Ohhh ok, so maybe its a Dachshund/Yorky, mutant cross then?

    Sorry about the off color, off topic posting, the cat attacked what it thought was a snake under the blankets the other night, I guess I'm still a little shell shocked, helllllo!

    I was going to build some book shelves myself but now I'm thinking of just mailing them to Jim for storage.

    I am awaiting the trip to the big box to purchase the rest of the inserts to hold up the other 2 shelfs. As for the book, my wife said the shelves were to small. Well I showed her! The dog on the top was hiding from the vacume cleaner and the other one was just in his normal place. They can be dangerous though, wookies I can handle, not that one on my neck. You'll notice I had the remote for the tv. Only time I get to use it is if I'm asleep

    Possession is the important thing. That keeps someone else from changing the channel and waking you up.

    This happens all the time at my house. The channel changes and I wake up and say, "Hey, I was sleeping to that!"

    My dogs hunt mice all the time. But as the oldest of the two, he's 14, only has 2 teeth he just scares the out for the little one. And by the way, I'll post another pic of the bookS' cast later today. My stack of Playboys' won't be represented as my wife says I cant have them on display any more. Something about me being a grandpa or some such

    Our birds NEVER make messes...at least in their opinion... Of course, the human members of the flock have slightly different ideas on the subject.
