A little late answering ( I've been away over the holidays ), but my
sweetie bought me a copy of the Machinery's Handbook !
Not bad, considering all the complaining she does about the cost of my
hobby.

Not too long ago, she sat down and went through all the receipts for
all the machinery and tooling I've purchased since getting started a
couple of years ago.
Needless to say, a bit of a fight ensued.
I explained, as patiently as I could, but with rising anger, that I
didn't drink, didn't do drugs, didn't gamble and didn't run around
on her !
She mentally totalled up the prices on the receipts again and
suggested that I maybe I take up drinking.
