tonight i was giving my family's kitchen cabnets a rub down, and got a little loving in return. ... this pice o wood/piece o cabnet went under my skin . i guess you can call it a splinter even though it was the size of mini cooper. you can kinda see where part of the wood/cabnet is still under the skin .it looked alot cooler in person.
and note my aunt in the background. you can see how frantic and consurned she was about me........
To prevent blowout, we drill 1/4" short using the CNC machine. We then use a manual drill to finish the hole from the other side.

Ducks in the cove don't mind the cold, or at least, they don't complain to me. Every time I see them, I think about the notion of being placid on the surface, paddling like mad underneath. There's no purer metaphor for my lifelong state of mind. Way too much has always been happening in my head. That might seem beneficial for someone like me with a creative career, and it certainly does keep me from running short on thoughts. But the buzz carries on beyond the hour a day I actually spend writing. When I was young, I remember seeing an episode of "Star Trek: The Next Generation". In it, an android called Data gets romantically involved with a human character, despite the fact that he has no emotions. After they kiss, she asks him: "What were you just thinking?" He describes a whole litany of things on his mind, only one of which was her. That sense of splintered focus has always been familiar to me. Not a wandering mind – more like being fully present in multiple thoughts at once. I can't get anything done, or think anything through, unless I'm multi-tasking.
