Or get an oxy-acetylene torch kit and weld/cut/bend metal to make lawn art.

Deacon doesn't need welding equipment. The guy can build sculptures out of pvc. I was always hoping he would build a complete bicycle out of PVC..............

I tried that "live every day like it was my last" idea but I nearly got arrested... I won't even mention the pharmacy incident. But really, I've had so many close calls I can't list them here. I did take up gardening, and this summer we are eating lots of fresh veggies. That small pastime has saved us money, kept me out of trouble and given me great contentment... Now where is that clutch removal tool for the Puch?
