With the stuff you have to take just to get thru each day Greg? Be glad you can even use that facility productively.

I've spent a lot of time woodworking and making instruments. But nowhere near 10k hours. Here are some of my creations.

A couple of electric guitars:

Teak jewelry box. Could be a nice watch box?

Not that it matters a great deal, but I must correct the above statement. It is a 1 liter soda bottle that I can balance on one finger. Of course, I can balance a 2 liter bottle, too, but the lighter and shorter the harder it is to do. I've never tried the 20 oz bottle, but I should.

I just saw a picture of Phillipe Petit balancing an iced-tea spoon on his nose. Now, that's talent.

My passion-Golf and Guitars. I'm sure I have over 10,000 hours @ golf but could still be much better. I've been playing for 21 years (30 now)

I'm an expert at putting my foot in my mouth as well
