Read it carefully, it says "bare-bottom farting" is of concern. If your BFF is BBF'ing, you very well could be at risk. Go ahead, laugh...you obviously haven't been keeping up on what cabin fever is capable of doing. JB

Ok, so I was just finishing up on a telephone call when my call waiting beeped in and notified me of another call. Fully expecting a colleague on the other end of the line, I was a bit miffed to discover it was a telemarketer hawking a medical alert pendent. So... Being totally bored, and...

I don't print, but won't it be unstable in hot weather (obviously less than sublimation temps.)? And won't it make a mess if it's laminated? Seems like it wouldn't be UV resistant, regardless. JB

I thought the title had something to do with signing up for Social Security....my bad. JB

I agree. COMMON SENSE...sounds too much like a variant of COMIC SANS....just sayin'. JB

Sandblast engraving

Contrary to the late-night radio infomercials, you really do have to pay back what your borrow. Either pay them...or pay hell for the rest of your life. Bankruptcy has yet to become viable business model. JB

Identical layouts except for the lettering. Both are cut to the same depth, but the stone on the right has no stain and has been shape carved...giving it an eerily realistic appearance. JB

You're asking a question that borders on "the secret sauce" for many companies. You may have realized...the market is crowded and it's all about the secret sauce. You may get some takers, but then again, maybe not...at least not so obviously. There is a lot of good information online if you...

It's called the theta belt. The Plotter Doctor sells them direct or on eBay (his seller name is jdjdpart). JB

Looking down into the bore hole of the carriage, the key needs to be at the 9 O'clock position. Currently, yours appears to be about the 7 O'clock position. You need to loosen the gear that drives the theta axis and then re-align the cutter. But first, you should remove the dial head cover to...

Me too...but then again, I've never been one to be driven by the almighty dollar. At one of my former jobs, I was told that trait made me un-promotable, and eventually I walked away without so much as a wistful eye. Several years later, that business closed, and now and weeds grow high around...

I can't stand the thoughts of killing gorillas just to make tape. Everybody knows dinosaurs are already dead, so it seems like a better choice. I'm still on the lookout for a more sustainable alternative for frog juice. http://www.trextape.com

For general transfer tape, I use RTape and for some specialty work, I use TransferRite 6798 (very high tack). For general masking and light-tack transfer use, I use the cheap Duck Brand (WalMart) masking tape, and I save my 3M masking tape for more aggressive uses (transferring monument...

Epitaph for Tex: "So, here lies Tex who mixed my phrase, he left his wife and on the way...he blew the sign he'd passed by lots...because he thought it just said POTS". I'm not dissing anybody with dyslexia...I have the same issue sometimes, so I'm laughing along with myself as well. Except...

Hey Tex, I wrote this just for you. Let me know how it reads....this could become fun. Leave your wive and weave your life, 'round seeking thrills 'midst toil and strife. Or just stay put, enjoy the ride...ne'er grass is greener, th' other side. (Now that I've had a chance to read it more...

I prefer a third option: You can weave your life and your work together in such a way that you never long for retirement, and you never fear missing out on life. JB

25 years ago, I worked for a (very dysfunctional) family business. The business was essentially in bed with a tier-2 automotive supplier, which meant we had to jump at their every request, otherwise risk losing contracts. At ground level, it meant employees spent a lot of overtime at the...

Here's a bit of encouragement for owner / operators who're hanging tough during these difficult times. It's an interview with Paul Jarvis, author of Company of One. Well worth your time to watch: Key takeaways: -Don't promote yourself out of a job you love, into a job you don't like. -...

I love that kind of thinking! I'm a lefty also. JB
