Probably the same reason I'm at work (and on this site?) with still 20 pens to turn and finish by Monday!

Nothing wrong with 'unstructured' thoughts.


Thence is where inspirational, original, creative, stupid, impractical ideas emanate!:D


Back with my former employer it was called shot gun sessions. No thinking, no pre-judging, just pure mind dump of whatever presented itself to the concious being.

Usually those triggered more practical thoughts among the others present.

Brain storming is a better description. ADHD * folks were quite good at it!:rolleyes:

* used to be called daydreaming!:eek:



FWIW If your thinking is 'structured', ya ain't never gonna get out of that bubble!

Dusty, There is no way you are in a bubble!

You are always thinking outside the box!

I wanna turn a pen?
Not sure if I have all the stuff, and have not tried the Lathe yet.

so as a submarine sailor I am by definition a bubble head... in the bubble?

For some strange reason, the word "last' just will not go away!

I see you are hooked on last. It is addicting you know. But fun at the same point.

So the weather Gods were not nice today. I look at the forecast and there is a 10 percent chance of rain through 7 pm. So I head out and rent a jack hammer to break up our old cement sidewalk. 5 minutes in or less, it starts to sprinkle. 10 minutes in it is down pouring. It rained all day. I was in a rain coat with ear plugs and safety glasses on for 2 hours with a jack hammer in puddles. Never again.

Just wondering how you can quit being attracted to new hobbies and projects because you already have 10,000 projects that you can't get to now???

It is rapidly getting to the point where nearly all posts to this forum are unstructured and unrelated to woodworking. This will also be my LAST POST to this thread.
