"I can't wait to get my new toy and unwrap it in my mancave playground shop! I'll make a whole day of it as if it were xmas morning all over again. Then I'll play with it and experiment on many things for many months before I get to that project that I promised the wifey. Where shall I set this new toy up! Gosh maybe I should expand my shop to make room for it! I may need to get a new (insert additional tool name here) for that too.". :)
The wife and I were siting on the deck this evening when she suddenly out of the clear blue asked me what I was going to buy myself for fathers day, and strongly insinuated that she expected that it might be the Multiplaz. All I could say in reply was "it will be here Monday." I guess it is a sure bet I'll be getting very little else, as she has already started to murmur clips like, "wonder what I could buy for me with $2,000.00." When I broached the subject of all of her new appliances, clothes, dog fencing, patios and sundry other recent benefits I was promptly reminded that I had bought those things and besides I got a new addition to my shop, so none of that even began to count. What ever made us men begin to believe we could get away clean with anything??? I keep trying to convince the little lady that were it not for the pleasure of building and fixing things for her, I wouldn't need all those tools. I'm sure you can guess about how high that lead balloon flies.
