A Froe For Christmas

Submitted by Mike Siemsen on Sat, 12/26/2009 - 16:56

When My 15 year old Daughter asked me what I would like for Christmas I told her I wanted a Froe. I let her know that I had won one on E-bay and that she could pay for it if that is what she wanted to give me. Being a curious child she went to her computer to find out what this thing was that her father wanted. She went to Google and typed in “Fro”. The rest of this post is her “letter” to me.

The envelope. Notice the logo of a crossed froe and shears.

This is the letter.

With this "enhanced " photo of me enclosed.

I can see that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Well done, young Siemsen. Well done.

The 70's are back! Beards and long hair. Chris Schwarz and David Charlesworth have their long John Lennon hair, Mike, this Fro could be your "signature" hair; the Richard Simmons of Woodworking. You like to be different. Besides, it would keep your head warm in this below zero weather.

What did she change in the picture?

you could be the dude with the 'fro using the froe! I think you'd have to get rid of the flannel shirt. But think of the extra draw you'd have at the woodworking shows.
