Augh!
Happy belated birthday, Owlbow my dear.
My deep apologies; somehow I had it in my head that the next anybody's was on the 22nd., so I haven't looked here lately.
I hope you had a great day!

Thanks. My 15th wasn't so wonderful, but the 18th made up for it, despite the fact that a large lovely doe ate all my unripe tomatoes and beans that morning. In the evening, I grilled myself some cod and lots of veggies, drank a couple of beers, picked a bouquet from my flower gardens and slept like a July baby while my owl sang love songs and lullabies. 'Very pleased by your wishes, and no apologies necessary, sometimes belated is best. Me : 7/15

... hope you were well-toasted."

In collegiate slang, "toasted" is a synonym for drunk. Did you hope that Rubrick got drunk for his birthday?

Thanks. So far my prezzies have amounted to me shouting a round of drinks at the Baseball Bar and Grill at the Derby County Football Club at lunchtime. This occurs in about an hour ...

But more importantly did you all know that you all shared a birthday with my son Dan?

So HAPPY BIRTHDAY to the three of you - Wordwind, Capfka, and Danny.

Leonard Bernstein ( May God rest his egotistical soul ) is not worthy of inclusion in this trinity of exceptional beauty, extreme mental acumen, and a goodness of spirit that is envied much by the more base of the lesser angels.

Tonight I will set down three empty glasses in your honor.
The world is a better place because you three are in attendance. Salute! Salute! Salute!

Thanks for thinking of me Jackie. Kisses to you.

I had a great day. I took off work since it's my birthday and I worked on a bookcase I'm making. Hubby wanted a "heirloom" piece so it's a whole lot of work - but I love it.

Now, all I've been asked to do is to choose where Hubby is taking me to dinner.

Ah-ha TEd, you're having a senior moment ...you sent me the plans for a pencil-post bed, not a bookcase.

It probably would have helped if I had the bookcase plans...since I've never done this before, I'll sometimes do something, realize I screwed up and have to do it all over again. Good thing I remember and don't do it again.

For example, I measure extremely closely and I make sure everything is as close to perfect as possible. Well, my movable shelves were exactly the 12x23 inches of the inside space. I realized that if they are perfectly snug, they'll scratch the finish on the unit when I move them. An eight off the side and back and the problem is fixed. Now I'll know for next time...but I did have 21 shelves to recut.

Do you have any hints on how to cut carved molding at an angle? I have molding going around the bottom and I want to make sure the corners look good. I got the straight pieces figured out very well but I'm not sure how to handle the molding. It's solid wood and was a tad expensive so I don't want to screw up. It looks a little like this (sideways).
