Long, long time ago, when you started to learn English, you purchased an Assimil book, and there came the first sentence : “My tailor is rich”. A schoolmate who repeated that experience later with Russian told me that there it was “Eja Liubliu Caj”, or “I love tea”.

I feel my printer has now been spoiled.

The life of a woodworker is an eternal battle against leftovers. I you are a cook, you might also know the feeling. This had been a beautiful walnut plank, somewhat less than 1 1/2 feet wide, it would have been a shame to throw it out. So, it ended up as a somewhat unobtrusive but nevertheless very handy printer stand next to my writing desk.
