Hey Rob
I went out early saturday, and put my 2 freinds on 7 elk by 2:30 in the afternoon. We wnet home with a 900 pound and 500 pound animal. I will take them back out this next weekend to get the last one

Anyway I really wanted to say that I was very lucky this year for x-mas. I got a ONEWAY 2016 in place of my old DELTA 14" 46-715 that I lost in my divorce 3.5 years ago. My x-wife found out I was disabled and she said to me I will never be stuck with a cripple and away she went. Her loss my gain.

Good luck to all this year. Rod

HALF of marriages break up.

If the worst thing she took was your lathe, not too bad. Sounds like she TRIED to take your pride, too. Congratulations on keeping THAT!!!

Upgraded lathe Delta to Oneway,

If you CHOOSE to find a new "significant other", may she be in the "Oneway" category, too!!!
 
Hey Rodney, when my ex left me, I didn't even have a lathe. That's probably good, though because she took everything else!! BTW, she even offered to sell me my 280Z back. Oddly, I declined.
 
My ex and I split 37 years ago, I left with the clothes on my back, 6 months later she sent the rest of my clothes to me via freight COD cut into rags. Yea, hell hath no fury etc. etc.
 
My ex made out like a bandit! HE kept everything. I figured escaping with my daughter and my life was plenty!
 
I think Jerry Reed sung Tim DuBois's song that summed it up best.

Well, I guess it was back in '63,
When eatin' my cookin' got the better of me,
So I asked this little girl I was goin' with to be my wife.
Well, she said she would, so I said, 'I do'.
But I'da said, 'I wouldn't' if I'da just knew how sayin' 'I do'
Was gonna screw up all o' my life.

Well, the first few years weren't all that bad.
I'll never forget the good times we had,
'Cause I'm reminded every month when I send her the child support.
Well, it wasn't too long till the lust all died.
And I'll admit I wasn't too surprised,
The day I came home and found my suitcase sittin' out on the porch.
Well, I tried to get in, she changed the lock.
Then I found this note taped on the mailbox that said,
"Goodbye, turkey. My attorney will be in touch."
So I decided right then and there I was gonna do what's right
Give 'er her fair share but, brother,
I didn't know her share was gonna be that much.

She got the goldmine, (She got the goldmine,)
I got the shaft. (I got the shaft.)
They split it right down the middle,
And then they give her the better half.
Well, it all sounds sorta funny,
But it hurts too much to laugh.
She got the goldmine, I got the shaft.

Now listen up. You ain't heard nothin' yet.
Why, they give 'er the color televison set.
Then they give 'er the house, the kids and both of the cars.
See.
Well, then they started talkin' about child support, alimony,
And the costs to the court.
Didn't take me long to figure out how far in the toilet I was.
I'm tellin' ya, they have made a mistake.
'Cause it adds up to more than this boy makes.
Besides, everythin' I ever had worth takin' they've already took.
While she's livin' like a queen on alimony.
I'm workin' two shifts, eatin' baloney.
Askin' myself, "Why didn't you just learn how to cook?"

They give her the goldmine, (She got the goldmine,)
They give me the shaft. (I got the shaft.)
They said they're splittin' it all down the middle,
But she got the bigger half.
Well, it all sounds mighty funny,
But it hurts too much to laugh.
She got the goldmine, I got the shaft.

Well, she got the goldmine, (She got the goldmine,)

(Ahh, ha ha ha)
But it hurts too much to laugh.

After my divorce, my best friend asked if I knew why my divorce cost so much. I said "No, I sure don't." His reponse?

BECAUSE IT WAS WORTH IT!

I have to agree.
 
Well there is no difference between an Ex and a tornado. When they go, they bring the house and everything in it with them.

I mett two tornados in my life !!:D

And Rod, if you don't stop posting that irresistible wood, i'm about to meet a third one:D:D:D

I like Rod Stewarts quote: “Instead of getting married again, I'm going to find a woman I don't like and just give her a houseâ€
Lewis Grizzard used to say the same thing. Said his last wife "backed up a truck and took my dog too. A woman that will take your dog, will cut ya".

Rodney, you're a survivor, good job. Congrats on the new lathe.

Not that it mattered, but did she use the lathe?

I have said for years to people who have asked, that I haven't found my next x-wife yet. Course I'm pretty sure thats why my last ladyfriend and I parted company, she heard me say that to some old friends...

Funny...I used to know a guy who after being married 3 times always referred to his spouse as "my current wife". He thought it was funny, she wasn't quite as thrilled with the title. ;)
