I was thinking (always a problem) that my previous post on chain links was a bit too wordy, so here's a shortened version ... 10.5 mm links Find the extended version here, but, be warned, there are lots of words, some configured in ways previously unknown to man. (Perhaps this is why I'll never be a famous author. Oh well...) Disclaimer - see side bar. A taste of things to come ... Stay tuned. friday notes: p is fishing again. n was supposed to go with him, but, as usual, found it hard to get out of bed. s is leaving to go back to school this morning (b already left). and, to my constant amazement, i'm not worried about it. i love them but boy is it nice to get my life back ... also, the ones that are left eat my food without complaining. always a plus.
