glad you hopped on board ART!
Mrs is up from her nap and eating. She'll be off in about 10 minutes. I need to strap on the work boots and get to it!
Weasel reminded me of a riddle/puzzle book I was trying to think of yesterday. "The chicken from Minsk" Wife would say I cheated when I quickly figured them out, meaning I already looked up the answer. Not true my fair maiden... I'm not called the brain for nuthin!

As regular User of Teflon Tape in various Plumbing Escapades, I found that completely wrapping myself in it keeps various bad things at bay.
Years ago, while visiting Particle Accelerators around the World, I came up with the idea of 'BumTrons'. Not unlike 'Quarks' or 'Neutrinos', BumTroms are also little Particles. They are dense around People and/or situations that would bum me out. Especially People. So, I've made it a point to avoid BumTrons whenever I can. They everywhere!
In my protective Teflon Tape Outfit seen below, I can deflect BumTroms all Weekend, and stay Sober.
True, this Outfit is probably not a good way to meet Babes at our local Dog Park. I'm too old and too married to give a Rat's about that, though...

MM, I love the "BumTron" philosophy. Although I've never personally tried the teflon wrap, I try to avoid BumTrons like the plague.
So much easier to deal with life when you can avoid negativity.
Not always possible, but I'm sure the wrap helps. Could be considered "Shabby-Chic" as well... you might just start a new trend.

He was a lovely chap, sadly no longer with us. And on the bus theme he used to run a club for people who were interested in old buses. Of a Friday afternoon while the main office were working hard I'd type up his newletters and stuff like that.
