Norm Abram came to my humble shop to do a project with me. And when

Well, heck, who amomg is perfect? We are all imperfect and our wives
can testify to that. I'm just proud of the one I have and that she
puts up with my woodworkinmg. I got to thinking. If she did something
that took up as much time as my woodworking does, how would I react?
As far as mentally ill, we all have traits of it; some more obvious
than others.

Sounds to me like a subtle suggestion to SWMBO that you want a wide belt
sander for Christmas. Extremely slight chance you might be able to pull it
off with SWMBO, bit it won't fly too far here. :)

Sigh. My dreams are all about J Lo, 10 bd ft of black walnut, the
Vienna Boys Choir, 40 feet of copper tubing, and a chrystal chandelier
Hardly know what to say.

You definitely have a serious problem. If you'll tell me where you are
located I will come by and relieve you of all those nasty woodworking tools
and machines :-)

This reminds me of a Martin Mull song from the 70's - the Humming
Song, I think it was called.
Last night I took you home
And we began to hmmm....
Hmmm hmmm hmm hmmm hmmmmm
Hmmm hmmm hmm hmm only seventeen
Hmmm hmmm hmmm
Leather skirts
Hmmm hmmm hmmm
Rubber shirts
Hmmm hmmm
Hmmm hmmm hmmm hmmm
And jars of vaseline
Hmmm
Hmmm hmmm
Hmmm hmmm
Hmmm hmmm
Hmmmmmm
Pick up the soap
Hmmm
Hmmm hmmm
Hmmm
Hmmm hmmm
Hmmmm
Mayonnaise and rope
Then from the chandelier
The three of us hmm hmmm
Mmmm mmm
Hmmm hmm hmm hmm hmm
Hmmm hmm hmm hmm
Hospital -- for life
Hmmm hmmm hmm
Whips and chains
Hmmm hmmm hmmm hmmm hmmm
Great Danes
Hmmm hmmm
Hmmm hmmm hmmm hmmm
Hmmm hmmm
... your wife.

Dunno anything about that... back when I learned it, Ozzie was still
doing his bat-geek trick, as frontman for Black Sabbath. If you've heard
Ozzie do it, I'd bet that he picked it up from one of Mr. Mull's albums.

The words "obsessed" and "woodworking" don't belong in the same sentence.

Actually this is a good dream. Sometimes I am working on a project in the
garage when the guy down the block stops by. He doesn't even look like Norm,
especially with his mask on, but when he opens his car trunk, all kinds of
thinks like a TV set, stereo and power tools magically appear.
Better than obsessed with:
drugs
wild women
fast cars
computers
pornography
new bass boats
new house
new car
new job
getting your boss fired
getting workmates fired
Deer hunting
blowing up things
hijacking an airplane
starting fires
the list goes on and on and on and on and on and on and on and
on-----.
Hey, stay obsesseed with woodworking.

Makes me wonder what you are going to do with the Vienna Boy's Choir.

Back in the day when I was a live sound engineer, I had girlfriends
tell me that I recited effect device settings, and patch routings in
my sleep. <G>
Your dream sounds perfectly normal to me.

There was an article in "Rock & Ice" a couple months ago as to whether
climbing could be classified as a mental illness. They concluded it
probably was in many instances.
I expect woodworking is similar.
