Congratulations Seamus on your acceptance to the Penmakers Guild. It would seem that Wichita Falls , TX, has become the epicenter of the penturning world. The home on Seamus Rooney, Don Ward and David Broadwell. Regards Darrell Eisner
 
Congrats but isn't defacing US currency still a violation of the law and punishable by fines and or jail???? And the PMG awards such a violation of the law? Wow, what a group!!!
 
Seamus, great job on the pen and also for praising God for your talents. You are truely a craftsman and I am continually inpressed with your pens. I wished that you live closer so you could be my mentor.

Keep up the good work.

Thanks Mark, glad to hear from ya!




John T(Jttheclockman) :tongue:thats what I was thinking too.:biggrin:
 
You can legally drive a nail through a coin, paint it ultramarine, melt it, or bend it into a pretzel - but the moment you try and use that coin as currency, you're breaking the law. You can sell that altered coin as a collectable, but you can't use it to buy a Snickers. You can gold-plate your cent-less V-nickel, but you can't pass it with the intention of making the clerk think it's a gold piece. You can mash your pennies in the cent squisher at the zoo, but don't even think about buying penny candy with them ever again. Get the idea?

You never miss a chance to slam the PMG. Since Seamus hasn't broken a law the PMG is not doing anything wrong.

And yes, what a group! Welcome Seamus to the PMG.

Do a good turn daily!
Don

Seamus, I am unable to view the pen but, wanted to congratulate you anyway. I understand that's a tough group to get into. Again, congratulations.

And by the way, when exactly was the last time I slammed the PMG??????? Geesch, these are just pens by the way. Not like one is going to change the course of life itself or solve world peace with them. Calm down dude!!!!

What part of FRAUDULENTLY do you not undrstand, Dude? Get yourself a good dictionary. There has been no FRAUD and none intended.

The last time you slammed the PMG was yesterday. Calm!? I am calm but I can't be quiet whan you start in on the PMG. You have been silnt ab out the PMG for quite awhile. I must commend you on that, Dude.
Do a good turn daily!
Don the Dude.
 
To save anymore argument about law, I will simply say, my bad.



Now, since you want to get personal, speaking of definitions . . .

Please define stint as you accuse me of having been on one for awhile???????

This is why I asked you when was the last time I said anything. I knew about yesterday which is 1 isolated incident. Now, can you please point out the others, especially those that were said in a realtively recent time which would warrent claiming I am on a stint. An opinionated comment a few times a year isn't a stint. If so, then I dare say then that most people are on a stint about something.

Have a good one, DUDE!

Okay, I was wrong.I'm sorry. I apologize. I misinterpreted a word. Again, my bad. As for my "stint", the only only thing I said was here in this thread and 1 comment in a thread on another forum (both comments were made in about the same time frame). If that is a stint then I guess I am guilty and do apologize. But then, I guess this all depends on the definition of the word stint and I looked it up. :biggrin:



And seamus7227, stick to making pens cause it is something you are good at. Your Greg Cozad/Sosad retort was just that. Sooooo sad! :tongue::tongue::tongue::tongue: And since I was mistaken in reading the law, I do congratulate you on your induction.

I publicly accept your apology
 
The red text should be silent about. Sorry, I was replying from my blackberry while traveling to Dallas. No, I was not driving; I was a passenger. I tried to edit and correct the post but lost service and then the battery died.

BTW, I slept very well last night as I do every night.

Do a good turn daily!
Don

WOWEE Seamus! Congratulations on a great pen into the PMG my friend! That is well deserved for a talented and forward-thinkng penmaker such as yourself. Sure wish Wichita Falls was not so far away, so I could stop in and see you and meet Don also. We still need to take a ride to Woodworld someday when our schedules allow.

As a side note and I don't want to take anything away from this, but a lot of misinterpretation of law is that individuals don't read the "or, and, shall, and may" in the statute and that's where the confusion starts.

Anywho, congratulations on job well done with a beautiful pen!

Hey Dale! Long time no speak, Hope all is well. Thanks for the compliments. You are right, we should try to meet up sometime whether it be at woodworld or ,you are even welcome to come up here and visit! Its only 2 hours.Heck, I drive that every day going back and forth to the metroplex:biggrin:
Its all good!
 
Yeppers, I agree with that. Just sent you a PM on scheduling an all day "turnfest" when I get the house completed with the permanent shop. We'll work on that! Shoot, we may even invite Don. He doesn't seem half bad for a north Texan...:biggrin::wink: (sure hope he's a native Texan! :eek:)
