    Default One of Those Days

    Ever had one of those days where everything was just peachy?
    The afternoon is a balmy 24 degrees, there is no breeze and the birds are chirruping all around you as you work.
    Clouds lazily drift across the sun, but the air is warm and the day is just about perfect.
    Your project is coming together nicely and is not far off completion.
    Yes-siree - life is sweet!
    You make some calculated measurements, mark out your workpiece and tune in to the sound of wood being sawn and shavings being made.
    Man - you are meditating deeper than a Zen Monk!
    Almost absent mindedly you fit together the joint that you have carefully crafted, and it slides together like a hand in a glove.
    And then ......................... you turn it over!

    .... and you discover that Zen Monks know lots of four letter words ..........................

    Here is the lead up .... the full catastrophe is on my BLOG
