That reminds me about the spider paper towel dispenser I still haven't gotten around to. Still have the box of paper towel rolls for it waiting on a shelf in my shop.

Das; do the fangs drip hand soap when nudged?  Perhaps that nice yellow green stuff?

Hmm. Well it was going to be wall mounted facing up and the paper towels are going to be the center pull style. Might have to give that some thought. Or make another one for that purpose.

  Das, don't forget Mr. Armodillo!  So many projects, so little time....

Yeah, he has a little bit to wait yet. I have another project to finish up then a bunch of small stuff to make to fill the tables for a couple upcoming events. 

So little time is right. I'm just glad that it's my two beautiful girls taking up my shop time than anything else.

Too many projects is right, I have a 9 banded armadillo stuffed "plushie" I still need to make a suit of armour for!

  Priorities.  I spent yesterday out in the blazing sun putting up a zipline for my nephews.  It about did me in, but you should have seen them go!  

Sounds like a blast.

Now that I want to see when you get it done Thomas. Is it a life size plushie? Maybe you could find someone with a tame armadillo for a good photo shoot. 

I'm holding out for Christmas.  If pushed I'll go with Christmas this century! Really just an excuse to use some of the many armouring tools I've accumulated over the years.

Lorica segmentata armadillico. No?

I hear it's good BBQed so that'd be a yes.

  Had to mention hogs...  Now I think a skinny, hungry Wild Indian Boar sculptue with overgrown tusks, razor sharp claws, beedy eyes and a long string of drool hanging from it's jaw would be the bee's knee's!  Not bad on a spit either....

I'd say something snappy about a hog sculpture Scott but I can't get hoover hogs flossed out of my mind's eye.

There are tricks and methods for overcoming that....  But, I'll grant, Hoover Hogs is a tough one.  Kind of like getting a song from "Staying Alive" out of your head?

Don't make me send Frosty a plastic hog hat so he can call the hogs with the rest of us Arkansas Razorback Fans!

I bless the rains down in Africa; but we sure could use some here as well!  At least it will get cooler next week, why the high will get down to 97 degF!

I can usually drown earworms in Bach if I need to.

I wouldn't wear it anyway Thomas, I'm not a hockey fan. Ah I get it, they have a hog mascot on skates and it looks like it's hoovering as it skates around the rink!

Have a link to videos? Short videos I don't care about the hockey game.

  Coming from Nebraska, I can vouch for what they say about the humidity in NC.  And the sun is hotter here.  I can't imagine 100 F!    And people drive like manics.  Maybe condensation on the brain?  They are nice folk though.  I'll pitch in on the shipping for the hat if we get to see a picture...

 

I could pick one up on my way to Quad-State; but Frosty says it's 2022 for him and I don't know if I can remember that long!

  Could we twist his funny bone to make him go this year?

I think his wife would set the dogs on you if you tried!   (Or perhaps Frosty and John have nefarious plans in motion that won't reach fruition till 2022!)

  I was not thinking when I posted that hog sculpture comment.  I did not mean it the way it sounded.  I step in it once in a while, but I mean well...
