Re: New kits
But Sue...
Remember a friend used to tell me (and we always had a swimming pool in the back yard) " Never jump in head-first, 'cause the first part that'll take damage is yer head, right, and inside's yer brain. So, are ye stupid, or just crazy? "
So we ALL gotta be a little 'bent' don't we? Either toward crazy, or styupid, or perhaps ~both~?
My dad never understood my hobby, but when I compared it to some others, he relaxed, as there was always ~some~ colateral in it (unlike other 'hobbies/habits, be they material, smoked, drunk or otherwise ingested)
He still hates the clutter, but " I'm not the mooch my nephew is " (and ~that~ ALWAYS shuts him up, ending the argument!)
Heck, its a vice that won't give us cancer, ruin our livers, though it may leave us begging on streetcorners...
