being read out there?
Yep, it's the Sunday-go-to-meetin' "Whatcha Readin'?" thread.
Mostly stray and uninteresting bits of fiction. Some Frost poetry, the usual dose of Kipling
Theres a wheel on the Horns 'o the Morning,
An' a wheel on the edge of the pit,
An' a drop into nothing beneath you,
As straight as a beggar can spit...
(Screw-Guns)
How about y'all?
I happen to be looking for a specific book, from about 1921 or so. The manual for the "Structo Artcraft Loom," one of which we got courtesy of a sister-in-law who does the odd job at an auctioneer's business, right across the street from her house.
Trying to find owner's manuals, might be forced to temporary insanity, joining a "Yahoo Group." Seems they have everything I could need to get this set up for my wife to use, but I have to wait on "approval" for getting access to any of their content.
I used a throw-away account for the Yahoo parts, I hope once I get the manuals for this loom I can get SHUT of Yahoo. It keeps trying to get me to be more "social" or something. Wish it were still just plain old Usenet or an email list archive, I could dive through that in short order, bother no-one, and get what I needed without all the carp that is inherent with this WaHoo! B.S.
