YOU KNOW YOU'RE A NORMITE WHEN . . .

. . . the only fashion decision you have to make every morning is what
color check to wear

. . . measuring a table top diameter at 51 and 31/32" seems normal

. . . everything is a "fun project"

. . . it takes 15 minutes to find a plain ol' screwdriver in your shop

. . . you sleep with your tenoning jig

You drive five hours to see your daughter in Atlanta but stop at
Highland Hardware before going to see her.

You genuflect and cross yourself upon entering Highland Hardware.

You offer up burnt offerings of walnut offcuts to Sam Maloof.

You carry your checkbook with you on your Saturday morning bicycle ride
just in case you find a Unisaw at a yard sale.

You risk your life to save a hound dog by crawling out on
thin ice, falling through, and busting the ice back to shore
while dragging along the exhausted dog.

You then have your already scheduled root canal 20 minutes later.

Oops, wait that wasn't Nahm....

If you buy dust collector blast gates in a 12-pack you might be a Normite.

If, while helping the kids with a balsa airplane, you suggest "lets just
shoot in a few brads till the glue dries" you might be a Normite.
If you get a volume discount from Klingspor you might be a Normite.

If you wore a red flannel shirt to your wedding you might be a Normite

And you always wear these -- tap, tap -- safety glasses.
