Has anyone read "House on the Bridge: Ten Turbulent Years with Diego Rivera?" Did you enjoy the descriptions of Paris, Bruges, Southern Spain and Mexico? What about daily life in Paris in 1910?

I think I've seen a small series of DVD's on hand plane usage.

Great Catalogs

Sears has got an October 2009 Smart Kitchens catalog, to the store.

There's a big'ol red, 90th Anniversary edition Kitchen Aid mixer, right on the front of the catalog's cover!

Nice...

Sears's Wish book for Christmas 2009 is out, at the store, now.

And, it has some tools in it!

Look for the red covered catalog.

I just requested a Wish book catalog, from the Sears.com site, for my very own use.

Kinda... I could definitely see the first half of the Dark Tower movie being great! Then, the second half a major letdown...

That being said... Garth Ennis' Preacher would be a stellar mini-series on HBO or Showtime. Only way to do it justice is a mini and not a 2-3 hour movie.

How to Sharpen almost anything would make a GREAT movie!

Come to think of it, I think that subject is out on several DVD's...

I watched part of the first episode of Vampire Diaries and was really bored. I could not get into it and don't think I'll be giving it a second chance.

What is on your must read list?

Woodworker's POWER TOOLS - An Essential Guide, by Rick Peters.

Filled with lots of color pictures and computer-graphic style illustrations.

Yea I think that's who it is by.. I watched that first episode of The Vampire Diaries and I wasn't too impressed with it.. It was kinda dull. But maybe I just watch some more to get what's going on..

I would love to see Stephen King's Dark Tower series made into a film or Lamb by Christopher Moore.

A very good sharpening manual.

Lee Valley Tools sent out a little flyer version of their catalog.

There are some intrigueing woodworking tools.

The economy must be improving, some of the items in the catalog were fairly expensive items.

Fortunately, I already own a lot of the tools, including similar "Shoulder Planes".

I found an old GarretteWade Tool Catalog, while "straightening" around the workshop.

Would you believe 2004?

Oh, yaa...

I keep the old tool catalogs.

The garretwade.com site is still very much "UP".

I ordered/requested myself a brand new paper catalog (don't like virtuality as much as "paper").

Sears has got a new version of the ever popular; Hand Tools Their Ways and Workings.

Mine is Copyrighted 1982.

The new Sears version is Copyrighted 2002, with a different cover illustration.

At $19.95, I might get it, just to "compare"...
