The last couple of days I just havne't been myself. Not depressed, but not overly happy, not angry or irritable, but somewhat out of sorts. Finally realized the problem this morning...Josh's tutorial ended!!
I can't express it any better than these other gentlemen, but man I enjoyed this thread. Sure hope there's some others down the pike!
Thanks

Hmmm. Maybe if enough people feel that way we can pool our money together and have Josh make *me* a knife - and show how he did it.


<evil grin>

RafterP and kflach,

I too feel kinda let down ... I looked forwared to the posts every night, but, having recieved the knife today, I can't say I am displeased to have it in my opsession.

Klacch, I would give Josh a PM; let him know exactly what your wishes areand he quite possibly might have an option the you have not considered.

Like the old adage said, you won't know until you talk to him....

Kflach,

Why thank you sir!

I am only waiting for my Botas so that I can wear it  .... can't wait and it is beginning to look like it will be another nonth (or so) before they get done ...  but I was at a soiree where us reenactors were 'color' for the event ... besides getting an excellent smorgasbord at the Hyatt Regengcy, there was a commercial photographer taking pics for free of the attendees ... so I got a portrait quality photo of mysellf in Californio mode. The photographer is sending me a n email attachement of the pic, so I will be posting it on my profile 'til my Botas appear ....

WWE,
My home club, The Texas Ten Horns (http://www.texastenhorns.com/), hosts the NCOWS Southwest Regional match in October. This year it'll be Oct. 28 - 30. You're more than welcome to come this year and bring your Belduque. Actually, you'd be welcome to come even if you didn't bring it.

WaddWatsonEllis

kflach,

I was planning to go about a month before, but this sounds like a real hoot ...

But I am off to my volunteer 'job' right now, and will have t look at the link later ...

The info on this year's match is still incomplete on the web site. There are, however, pictures from last year's Regional. Also, here are some links to some relevant threads from the past.

Santee,

Thanks for the encouragement; sometimes I think I look like a psychotic Mariachi player with a bone to pick with somebody .... *S*

I think it looks great. It gives it the final touch. KT
Cheer up things could be worse, sure enough I cheered up and they got worse.

WaddWatsonEllis

Thanks, KT!

It is nice to hear from others whether the persona of the person one is trying to recreate is working or not ... trying to judge ones self is a bit too myopic ....

Well, yeah, but that's not a bad thing, either.   :o   :D

You look great.
People like me are the reason people like you have the right to bitch about people like me.

Forty Rod,

I never really looked at it that way ... thanks! *VBS*
