Mother-in-Law Gloat


For my birthday my mother-in-law gave me an Incra Miter 1000 miter gaug
for my table saw. What a saint!

I used it for the first time this morning cutting miters on some 1/
rope molding for a mantle that I am building. It was fantastic! Th
45's were dead on, and the initial setup was really easy

Mine sends me a short U-shaped tube and tells me to GFY.

Oh, wait a minute, I've never been married. Never mind.

You suck. My MIL sends me a $5 bill. If she happens not to be pissed off
at me that year.

You suck. I got my MIL a broom for her birthday. She looked at it and
turned it to stone, and then she shoved it up my ass sideways.

Rub it in whydontcha? Next you'll post pictures of the endless stream of
gorgeous wimminz who have graced your boudoir.

(Actually, I'm happy to be married. And happy to live 100 miles away from
my MIL.)

Even better. The only thing better still would be if we could relocate'em
to, say, Jupiter. Maybe Pluto. Or maybe off in the Andromeda galaxy
somewhere. I wonder if nagging can travel faster than the speed of light?

No, gentlemen don't kiss (pet, and savagely engage in baccanalian
rituals for several days with women) and tell.

So solly.

Gotcha beat. My dear MIL simply writes me a check since she knows that I
like tools and other "guy stuff" that she has no idea about. My past
birthday, my MIL money bought a set of Two Cherries chisels, this
Christmas an old Walker-Turner lathe. Thanks Juanita!
