Old man Herring really has a thing for Harry lately. I bet he is trying
to get some free boat rides out of it.



Funny thing is... JohnH was one of the few invited out on Harry's boat,
but got fussy & decided the Parker wasn't worth his time.
You'd think he'd be more appreciative.



Herring is an a**hole. That's why he lives in my bozo bin with the rest of
the a**holes.

A friend took delivery of his new boat today, and I went along to help him
with docking and to splice up some lines for his slip. The sun was out for
a little while, and though it was cool, it wasn't chilly. We went out on
the Bay for about 45 minutes and saw a few hard cases fishing. For what I
don't know.

Right now I'm engaged in painting up my home office space in anticipation
of installing new cabinets for a nice work desk and a kitchenette. Did the
design on Autocad, got Home Despot to spec up what I wanted and order the
case goods.

Cabinets are supposed to arrive the last week in April. I'm doing the
electrical, carpentry and plumbing, which gives me the opportunity to
electrocute myself, cut off a few fingers with a table saw, and flood the
lower level.

I'm not doing the countertops, though. Once the cabinets are in, I've got
a countertop guy coming out to do a template from which he manufactures
the counters.



I feel for you. During the last 2 weeks of March we went through a family
room, kitchen and foyer update and will soon be in the midst of a total tear
out/make over of our master bath and powder room. Of course Mrs. H. also
wanted to replace furniture and wall decor to make sure it fit in with the
make over.

After the master bath/powder room project is complete and the dust finally
settles we will have new carpeting installed in my office, the foyer stairs
and hall and the basement (flooded out 7-06).

Good luck with your project Harry. I cannot wait for ours to end. ;-)
