Here’s a jig I made for glass cutting. Its purpose is to let me cut multiple pieces of glass so that all the pieces come out exactly the same size.
The jig is made from 1/4-inch MDF; I built it with my table saw, router, and new router table. All the pieces are screwed permanently together […]

Dear Very Concerned Auburn Fan,
If you “quit the team” I will know the world is coming to an end.

Dear Leigh Ann,
OK, so “quit the team” is a bit of an exaggeration, but I would be very disappointed. Auburn has the best, most beautiful uniforms known to mankind, and if […]

Dear Big Brother….
No offense, but you must really bored to write a blog entry about shoes. I never imagined you’d be writing entries about fashion! Maybe you’ve been living in a house full of women too long!! For heaven’s sake, if you’re going to write about style, you should be discussing the […]

I’m usually ignorant of fashion trends, especially footwear trends, but I’m suddenly noticing blog posts about clogs all over the place. Today Blurbomat even posted a slide show about Clogs vs Flip-Flops (slaps). I don’t wear either, but if I had to choose, it would definitely be slaps. Clogs are a fad. Slaps are timeless. […]

Pearland lifestyle center breaks ground. What the Heck is a Lifestyle Center?.
I don’t know what they’re talking about, but my lifestyle center is in the kitchen and has Cheeze Wiz and beer in it.

It’s such a beautiful day today that i’m going to knock off a few minutes early, go home, open up the garage, and spend some quality time with my workbench. Don’t know what I’ll work on. I’ve been wanting to buy or make a router table for my Porter-Cable router. Maybe I’ll work on that.

World Cup Ends for the United States.

For the first time in a week, the morning isn’t overcast and rainy. The sun is out, the sky is blue, and the only clouds in the sky are white, fluffy, and friendly. It’s about time.

…It arrived at 7:26 this morning. I don’t know how they can calculate it down to the exact minute. Maybe that’s the time that the weatherman gets out of bed.

…Dan Rather to leave CBS, return to his home planet. Full coverage at 5:30.

The weather forecast had predicted a couple of days of rain, but nobody said it was going to be this severe. At 5 AM Sunday morning the sounds of thunder and rain woke me up. This morning, it was thunder that woke me up at 4 AM. There was no rain, but an amazing light […]
