		<description><![CDATA[This letter was sent to me by an old friend. Hi, Gary! May I give you a story, as promised? The story is told that if you were a young person in medieval France embarking on a spiritual quest, if you were fortunate you might meet up with someone older, perhaps a teacher, who would [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This question comes from a former student. If a someone asks to borrow a prized chisel how would you politely decline the request? Paul F My reply: There are several options.

		<description><![CDATA[Stick with this fact: your bench is the center of the universe. When a client calls and asks, why won’t the door shut after we moved the piece? Or why do we need the shim under that cabinet leg? Or how come the drawer sticks? Your reply is always the same: My bench is the [...]]]></description>

The player wasn’t new at it, but neither was he all that proficient. He was learning and repeating his scales. I’m no musician so I cannot say what kind of scale it was, but I [...]]]></description>

But I have a sure thing for you. A can’t miss proposition. There is a guaranteed return on this investment. [Now I’m sure you’ve heard that line before.] But I [...]]]></description>

In search for truth or at least some information, I would wander over to the Sears store just off Grand Avenue and go up to the second floor and stare at the wall of woodworking tools.

		<description><![CDATA[Some years back I was designing a piece of furniture in the studio and I wondered how I could detail it, fine tune it. It was a nice piece but not outstanding. How could I make it my own? How could I give it voice and make it sing? Curiously I realized that I had [...]]]></description>
