Trouble in Paradise

Postby E7 » Sat Nov 23, 2019 1:45 pm

Al Hummel the shelf coupler guy is having problems with his shelf couplers.

The state of nirvana has been temporarily suspended. In all due respect to Al, who seems like a nice fellow, I wonder if the old axiom: "If all else fails, follow the instructions!" might not be prudent?

Saw that last week and just had to shake my head.......
What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. It also gives you a lot of unhealthy coping mechanisms, trust issues, and a dark sense of humor.

Not me. He got his wish, and is figuring out how to deal with it. He needs new parts, and I am sure they will make him some.

When he first started whining, I figured he was just obsessed, or maybe off his meds. But by golly, he got what he wanted. You have to admire that.

I better start whining. I am sure there are things I desperately need. A Lobaugh Cab Forward Cab roof springs to mind, or a pair of CLW PA nose castings . . . Whine . . .

Nah - I probably have more than any other kid on my block.
