My wife bought me a Jeff Foxworthy 365-day calendar for Christmas, and when I went into my shop today, it gave me a great outlook on something I saw...

Please feel free to add on to the list!

1. Your dual-bag dust collector looks like it's fully on and inflated, and it's not turned on....


(yup... completely full of dust, and half of it ended up all over the shop)

He's a Georgia "redneck" (self proclaimed) who is a comedian, and got famous telling good ol' redneck jokes, mostly about his own experiences.
