These days, ‘workshop’ students know all of the words before kindergarten.

So THAT’S what Yosemite Sam was saying all those years whenever he was outsmarted by Bugs Bunny!

My Grandfather would say “Dangnabit” when called for while in his workshop . What I wouldn’t give to hear him say it again.

That’s what my wife sounds like when I am busy.

“Not a finger!”

It’s my little talks with Jesus…

Shop note: extensive use of ancient Anglo-Saxon Incantations will supply sufficient heat to loosen the most stubborn connections. When surrounding atmosphere turns blue, throw away the 3-in-1 oil.

Kids, don’t hold something in one hand like that while trying to use the screwdriver in your other hand. You’ll end up with a screwdriver-sized hole in your palm.

They don’t teach the muttering. And they DON’T provide translations to anyone under 18. In fact for some terms, you have to be 90 and have signed permission slips from both parents!

You have to learn the Clenched Teeth dialect to even Begin to understand Workshop Mutter.

They’ll know exactly what he is saying when he puts that screwdriver through his hand.
