Storefront folks view them as bandits for "stealing" business. I see your wrists have healed sufficently to allow you to sit at the 'puter. Typing with my elbows.... Well, I don't think either of the NL teams would have had much of a chance against the Tigers, anyway. I'm a life-long Cardinal fan, but I don't have any expectations that they will win the Series. Probably gonna have to buy Java a steak dinner over this one. I sure hope so....give an excuse to drive south again, starting to get cold up here, and I'm not liking it like I used to. |

"Moonraker" wrote in message ... "Allan Adler" wrote in message ... Can you please define the term "basement bandit"? -- Ignorantly, Allan Adler "bas-ment ban-dit" adj. a wannabe craftsperson who works from home, avoiding such annoying costs of doing business such as rent, utilities, insurance, licensing and taxation. Usually identified as purveyors of second-rate artistry priced at extremely low prices. Some even wear the mark of the beast, a "DB" branded on their forehead. I'm going to start a DB BB guild. We're getting defamed here unjustly. With all the money I save by not paying taxes and not using enough rebar and using Chinese glass, I'm going to hire a PR firm, ...............db (just came up from the basement) |
