    Re: How important is a belt?

    Eeeeeeexcelent...

    Well, me and Lamar were at a local pizza joint last night, and I got a random comp on my belt. I suspect the buckle was the real source of the compliment, though (well done, Mark).

    And furthermore, I'm suspecting that, had I been wearing a waistcoat or sweater, they would not have complimented it. More reason to wear a belt- Because if you have a good one, folks think it looks freakin' cool.

    Yeah, I am telling you man. When they say "belt", they mean "buckle with belt." Hahahahaha.
    PS: Don't let Lamar see this note.

    Hey, look at my cone-heads, man. They kinda look like, er......ah.......um.......cone-heads. If you know what I mean!

    That is a very high quality photogragh, Mark. My compliments!

    And yes, your "cone-heads" are ridiculously awesome. If more folks cast their own rivets, the world would be a much cooler place.

    That photograph was taken before my last fishing trip. Camera is just not the same anymore.

    Hey, I don't want anybody to copy these rivets. Make your own: roseheads would be cool.

    Understood, about the camera.

    ...and I would never suggest that someone else should make a stab at cone-heads. Those are your baby.

    Well, you know I am joking. Anybody can do what they like. I wouldn't get offended!

    I didn't patent the coneheads becuase that is one way to draw attention to it and guarantee that somebody else will scab it off. Buggers.

    I have a cool-as-can-be rivet head in mind, I just need to see if I can make it turn out like I want it to. Nothing on this planet has ever been like it! Well, there might be some down deep that have never been seen before, but there aren't any on terra firma.


    Chant after me: cone-head, cone-head, cone-head, cone-head!

    Re: How important is a belt?

    You can't kid a kidder, Mark.

    You're rigt about the patent business, though. Did you know that I patented something, once but long ago? Nothing ever became of it, but it was a good idea... 3M looked at it for alost a year; now that the patent is over, I'm expecting to see it on shelves any time, the rats...

    In the name of newer and better rivets, go ye forth, I say unto thee.

    Amen. Rivets: Bind thyself!

    Yeah. You are right- it'll show up and then you will be IPing of the wall. Attorney time.

    I was involved in a patent once, and later found out that the patent we held was OK, but the technic was bogus! Holy cow!
