Louisiana Blues
If you are like me, you’ve spent more than a bit of time recently thinking about those affected by Hurricane Katrina. Those in the Big Easy, as well as those in Mississippi and Alabama, are going through misery that I can’t even imagine. Our prayers are with them. If you’d like to know how to help, the following link is to the Red Cross web page that allows you to specify that your donation will go to the victims of the hurricane.
Shifting our thoughts to happier things, this eZine is sponsored by the folks at Delta and Porter-Cable. Since I started woodworking as a professional, there has never been a time that I did not own several tools produced by these woodworking giants. So, when I learned that they were sponsoring this issue of the Zine, I couldn’t have been happier. Check out the Tool Preview and the Tool Maker Insider to learn what’s new at these superpowers of power tools. Of course, all of our regular departments are here for your perusal, as always.
So, keep your tools dry, and keep on making sawdust.
Sincerely,
– Rob Johnstone, editor: Woodworker’s Journal

Woodrus, Typos and More
We got an overwhelming approval rating for keeping the typo corner, a personal typo recollection, a suggestion, a question, and of course, the usual smattering of comic responses.
