Charlie Davis

Charlie Davis can stretch a dollar farther than Donald Rumsfeld stretches a reserve unit in Iraq. Like Travis McGee, he takes his retirement in installments, this time from school teaching to travel and build furniture. He writes to assess that hammer blows and other workshop mishaps haven’t rendered his sausage fingers completely useless, now incorporating only those words whose letters appear next to each other on the keyboard, making best use of his tendency to hit two keys at once. His furniture and daily (another stretch) woodworking blog appear online.
