Hi Larry,

I definitely think you're on to something here...worded properly I get the
tools I really "need" and the I convince her I am settling for old, used,
CHEAPER tools and I am doing it for the good of the family. Now I get it.
That's how it's done! That's how all you veteran galoots out there able to
gloat about "another" one of these and "another" one of those you've been
able to acquire and still stay out of harm's way!

Thank you for the secret hand shake!

Regards,

Ed
