Guys, I didn't mean for this to clutter up the site; but since I've already
accidentally spilled the beans...

Was a little under the weather Friday, so instead of working in the shop I
stayed inside and made a tiny (3") model of my NAUTILUS MINISUB.  Was
walking around the house barefoot while I was digitizing some pictures of
the model, and I stepped on an open tube of superglue without realizing what
it was.  Didn't think anything of it until I tried to take a step and found
out the entire front part of my left foot was bonded to the wooden
livingroom floor.  What's funny about it is the way you feel at a time like
that.  It was one of those "I can't believe I actually did that" moments in
life.  Fortunately, my wife had enough nail polish remover to get me loose.
After it was over we both got a laugh out of it, and I passed it on to Carl
last night figuring he would, too.  Today, I misunderstood the headings on
my email, and I thought Carl had inadvertently sent it to the discussion
group.  My mistake.  I should have known better.

Anyway, that's it.  Hope everyone gets a chuckle out of it.  Now, I declare
this thread officially closed.  The topic is submarines.

Never stick a fork in your eye, or glue your foot to the floor.
