He has a "dude" ranch on one of the islands (I don't know which one as yet) and has access to almost unlimited amounts of wood. He wants to make items from the wood on the ranch to sell in his gift shop as souvenirs of their visits. I told him that you have laser equipment, but I'm not sure what else you have. He's interested in some CNC work - perhaps picture frames engraved with the ranch logo, or other items. I gave him your name and the name of your company. Will you let me know what other equipment you have that you might be able to work with him on?</p> <p>Thanks, I appreciate your help.</p> <p>Nancy Laird</p> <hr /><a name="a6204_21"></a><p><b>From: laserlady</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=6204.21">#21</a>]<br /> 3 Mar 2007<br /><b>To: laserlady</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=6204.20">#20</a>] 3 Mar 2007</p> <p>Back on topic:</p> <p>My deceased father-in-law use to respond to the question "How are you feeling?" or "How to you feel" with the response:</p> <p>"With my fingers."</p> <p>He had bone cancer, prostate cancer, diabetes, emphysema, pernicious anemia, and a heart condition!
