Hope this gets trough, i'm not as coputer savy as i would like to be.Been lurking under porch for about a year, finaly thinking i got this thing figuered out enough to intraduce myself.(Some of my spelling is lacking also, but has greatly imprved. I'm the only person who has locked up spell-check) My name is Lamar Keeney now reciding in the Wilmington NC area.Age:can't get any farther on the back side forty, Ocupation:Semi-retired carpenter after twenty three years(meaning"Ain't got no money but damn shure got it made") As for this "galoot thing" the first time a got acused of it was when i drug out a brace and bit on a job sight in this age of tailed tools.After a generous offer to fine tune the young mans attitude he most respectively explained hiself. Didn't know we had a classification,let alone as many peaple that still shared an interest in the tools i learned with and still use. Finding this web sight has been the most interesting and enjoyable thing about this #!%& computer I've found. Looking forward comunicating and being of help when i can.

I also have spelling problems, but none of the English language elitists have scratched me with sardonic correction barbs when I have made contributions to the list.
