As some of the NW C-Cory owners know I turn bowls on a wood lathe and have made a bunch of minature billy clubs out of Madrona which I have given out at various get to-gethers. About 12 inches long and solid enough to get any animals attention, and cause an immediate attention disorder.
I have turned about 6 more and will have them with me at the hotel this week-end at the Seattle Boat Show. If I have'nt given you one and you want one, just ask. I'll probably turn two or three more tomorrow.
See all that are coming, there. _________________ David and Kate

Dave,
Would you consider trading one for a bunch of rolled up paper? Oh, I just remembered I already promised to give it to you for a beer. Damn. _________________ Tim and Judy w/o the Lynn Marie |

Your names are on three, Mike, Tim, and Tom. Still will have 6 left. Don't think I will be carrying them AT the show, however. |

I was lucky enough to get one of these at the lock cruise. (thanks again) For those of you who don't have one, they can also be used to adjust the attitudes of teenagers or (as Gallagher says) to teach even the dumbest dog to play dead. They slice, they dice, they even make julian fries but you gotta' hit those suckers just right!

I think one might feel a bit out of place on my poor old fishing boat.
Can they get the attention of trailer bearings?
How about boat trailer salsmen?
Maybe I better have one.
I haven't had time to turn a tire little on a whacker... _________________

Okay, so now I am keeping a list. AND I went out today and got some more Madrona and have made 6 more. 9 on the list and 5 in reserve. I probably will make a few more tomorrow.
See if I can do a picture. The foot is on purpose for perspective. (Size 11).

Dave,
I am going to get my first ever fishing license this year and I'd just love to have one of those fish whackers. Please save one for me. Thanks!
