Machete #8

The The Double Sided Machete made #8 due to the description! It's a saw and machete in one. I wouldn't usually be attracted to reading about knives but then I caught the word daughter. Check this!

"Perfect for camping, clearing brush at the cabin or just intimidating the next guy your daughter drags home, this handy tool puts two blades in your grasp."

Having two daughters I immediately saw the wisdom in this statement.

Deluth Trading Co ~ Countdown!

#9 Pictures were requested so now we have added visuals! The ad description reads...Extreme conditions call for a new kind of work shirt. Now this doesn't sound too bad until the sentence.... Won't help with rattlesnakes though...WTF.... do rattlers like sweat???? Do rattlesnakes smell???? Then they throw in the testimonial... "We have to stay cool to keep our minds sharp!" Try telling that to any menopausal woman you know... on second thought don't mention it.. might set off an explosion!

#10 Longtail T ~ The solution to Plumber's Butt (Let that soak in a minute) here's some more of the description.... "Why be the butt of job site jokes?" and the testimonial.... "My husband loves his longtail T's and so does everyone working behind him!"

On page 1, I realized that this catalog has true potential!

DJO

It has been forever since I have blogged. (Or at least since January!) Lots has happened. I guess one of the most fun times has been the DJO crew. We have performed at the Rialto Theater with a Celtic Rock group, on Pearl Street and featured at the Heartbeat festival. It has taken many hours of practice but I do think we sound pretty good. We are preparing for our second season so we'll see where we go from here.
