WARNING TOTALLY TASTELESS COMMENT FOLLOWS

humm but she ain't no Dolly Parton cause there is not not a pair in the yard.
Oh wait , my apologies to a dear friend of mine but here it goes....Properly done one could say that there was a mastectomy done at some time. Depending on how the dome is done one could also envision a rather large booty.

Here are a very fine pair of Dolly Partons in South California off of the I-5.

I'm still waiting on reasons 2 thru 10....several of them are usually better than the number 1. Come on Dave, don't stop now.

Dave, about the T shirts you have to give away after passing James. I hope you will stick to your redneck heritage and do some sort or commemorative edition "wife beater" (sorry ladies) with your likeness flipping pizzas on the front or back.

Dave, that is a really good list! You should be bored at work more often.

How's it going btw? Did you ever get that promotion or are you still just filling in for you boss?

On a more serious note, since building this oven, a couple of people have pointed out to me how archetypally female a WFO is. The oven or hearth being the centre of family life in ancient cultures ("focus" means hearth in latin) (...apparently) and the oven being an ancient symbol of womanhood, with the fire representing life, and yes, buns in the oven and all that, too.

...and jengineer, we're talking fertility here, not masectomy. You got the wrong part of the anatomy.

Indeed I did. A fortunate fellow I am. Life seems to be shining on me lately.

Thanks for pointing this out. It makes sense. My family gathers around my oven. I can only imagine how past communities gathered around for food and warmth.

Maybe one dome makes Dave happy? Why have two when one is so big?

One big one and one little one!!!

Re: I've finally decided that my oven is female.

Nope! Not touching that one! I'm laying low after the big jugs thread. Geeze, I could get really ugly with that post jengineer.

Dave - how about "Half-a-Dolly" (Parton) for a name?

Re: I've finally decided that my oven is female.

dang - my wife reminded me that I get real sarcastic and brutal when I get in a "mood". My apologies to the board

Re: I've finally decided that my oven is female.

Re: I've finally decided that my oven is female.
