Found on rec.crafts.woodturning:
My wife came in today and asked if I would go do some turning. Ahh, I asked, what do you need? Maybe a new dibber or possibly a rolling pin or a vase? I have Persimmon, Hickory, Mesquite, a little bit of Walnut and a tad of Oak - what would you like?
Oh, I don't care. I need about six bags of shavings for the flower beds...
It's so nice to know my turning is appreciated.
