   eef ,

   you can't trust that profile thing.  I t says I am 49.  Can't figure out how to change it.  Nope once a person enters the realm of Knots the normal laws of the physical world fall away.  It is every wizard and hobbit for him self.  Left to grapple with the perceived world that each sees in front of him, or her.  Is it real ?  Is it an illusion ?  It can change from one to the other and back again.

   I'm sorry . . . what was the question ?

   "Portrait of Roc"

   Roc,

   I checked with the Taunton people.   They tell me that you are actually 49 years old, and will remain so because:

   1) that is what your profile says, and

   2) in a deal they made when this new Knots format was adopted,  your photo will age, but you will not. 

   For more on this phenonemon, see the book,  "Portrait of Dorian Grey". .  

   I believe you could find out more in the "Highlander" movies.  It seems that FWW and Knots have now created a small group of immortal woodworkers, WITH ONE CAVEAT!!!!!          According to the Highlander movies, each of you is now a swordsman and you will have to fight one another, because "THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE!"       THis group of woodworkers will fight it out with woodworking tools.   This promises to be very bloody, and the movie series that comes out could be more popular than The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

   I am glad to have been able to explain this to you.  I wish you luck.  Can't wait to hear who the others are.

   Rich,

   I believe I am as serious as many who hang around here.  :-)

   Some posts can only be answered with humor.

   Have fun.

   Who said anything about being serious? I just figured whatever it was, I wanted some. Sounds like a fun world to be in. ;o)

   Awww that sounds like entirely tooooo much work.

   Yes the Dorian Grey story came immediately to mind while I was reading your post.  I was going to say I don't think I could get it up to be truly sinister. All that thinking and plotting and kiniving takes it out of a guy.  Takes me away  from my time on Knots and dreaming about all the projects I am going to make SOME DAY.  Now you are saying I got to fight with swords and stuff.

   yyyyyYah that'll happen.  Sure.

   I was able to wipe out a box of chocolates this last Christmas but that is about as close as this kid gets to what you are talking about.

   In the famous words of some one or other, who I have forgotten the name of, "lets you and him fight".

   If you joined as part of some sort of promotion offering plans, you might email Taunton with your question.
