Sacrificial Work Surface

… you don't want to ruin the table !!!

The big brown rectangle is a piece of 3/16" Masonite. This makes a very inexpensive sacrificial top. I just wiped it down with linseed oil to make it purty again; a light sanding once in a while doesn't hurt either. And when it gets too grody, throw it out and get another. It's like a giant placemat. Here, I have a placemat on top of a placemat. What does that say about me? Probably nothing very good.

Hollywood and the music industry are not totally bereft of talent today. Here is actress Zooey Deschanel and her musical partner M Ward doing a wonderful rendition of Dusty Springfield's 1964 Stay Awhile:

Deschanel has a very nice singing voice. And while she's not Eleanor Powell or Ann Miller, she competently dances her way through a clever and stylish video. I can't speak for her acting, the only thing I've seen her in is The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy; the rock I live under gets very bad TV reception. She was good in that though, so I'll give her all three - sing, dance, act.
