A Visit to Chris's Lair




A visit to Chris's garage always yields many interesting sights. Happy doll head decorates the top of the refrigerator. The device mounted on the side of the cabinet is capable of extracting ( at very high heat) the potent chemicals trapped within a plant. They are vaporized without lung-damaging smoke, and then collected in a large bag. One can partake of these invisible ethers directly from the plastic tubing or save it in the bag. I suppose you could store a closet full if you felt like it, and what a lovely housewarming gift!
Chris has purchased some kind of super powered pogo stick capable of flinging you skyward 5 to 7 feet. Its pretty frightening I thought, nice to go up but the landing is tough.
Lastly we have Anisworth or Ansell as he is now known." This tattoo almost killed me" he tells one and all. Apparently it became infected very quickly and as Ansell tells it " they were thinking of amputating my leg". Fortunately he healed and now this design is one of many that adorn our own Illustrated Man.
I love Chris's garage. He has lots of beautiful tools and he takes good care of them. Theres generally a project underway and some interesting folks hanging about. A very good place to visit on a rainy Sunday.
