Now admit it, Esther. You only suggested it because you had that wonderful smiley.

Actually I do have ulterior motives.... I want my son to become a welder.
He is seriously looking at courses at the college level and I thought this a good primer for him. He is NOT a reader so this would certainly help him if he reads along with the recordings.
Any volunteers?

ps went looking for the smilie after posting.

I loved it. It was the first one I found!

Hehe. I found this one a couple months ago when I was searching for something 'riveting' for the Insomnia collection. I considered reading a chapter or table from it.

Well, if there is enough interest, I could BC it.... maybe.Darvinia wrote:I considered reading a chapter or table from it.

If you do decide to BC it, please reserve Chapter 6 for me. It's my 'riveting' chapter. I promise to read with a bit more enthusiasm than I had planned for the Insomniacs.

Yes, we can't have you sending Esther's son to sleep. That is NOT the idea...

They actually don't rivet much anymore. My ex is an Ironworker/welder which is where my son gets it. It's such a versatile trade. One can do many different specialties once one knows how to weld.
A friend's son had a motorcycle accident when a young adult and his legs where pretty badly damaged. He now works welding UNDER WATER! Legs are not as important and the money/danger pay is pretty good. (Don't want my son doing that though)
