I own every one of his DVD programs, and his luck had nothing to do with it.   [big grin]

Agreed, unless the laws of probability have been rewritten in his favor I think Mr. Katz is a great example that the harder you work the luckier you get.

John's right.  I own most of Gary's DVDs and attended one of his seminars.  It's not luck.  It's skill, knowledge, and experience.

i was only been comical about the luck part. i know garry diserves every thing he earned
 
Baloney. Luck has a LOT to do with everything--good luck, bad luck, mediocre luck...  My uncle once said that you can only work hard and be ready when an opportunity arises. That's how you ride good luck. I always thought of it like surfing. But hard work plans a real role.  So does friendship, community, etc. Which brings me back to that video!  Thanks to everyone who gave me good advice about editing it. Here's the new link! I like it much better myself! I felt pretty bad that so many people were shocked. I learned a great lesson, too.

Gary,

In some ways I have felt guilty for posting the video and then seeing what came out of it.  I do admit that I did not watch it all the way thru before posting.  I just wanted to scoop Shane and get it here first [big grin]

You have handled the criticism well and I think that what you ended up with is great.  Very classy to also mention the reasons why and how the change came about.

My hat is off to you again.

Peter,
You shouldn't feel guilty at all! Why would you? It's a lot like carpentry, you know...a learning experience. I'm still not ready for Samsara--I still kick myself sometimes when I screw stuff up, but I'm trying to learn that the right approach is to ask 'why'.  I really love learning stuff...even when it's the hard way. Thanks for helping.
Gary
 
Controversy or not, frankly I think its a great video and I thank you Gary for making it.
 
Gary,

Great edit to add the safety tip.  Who knows whose fingers you'll save!

p.s.  Sam's right.  You do look a little like "Einstein on sawdust" but I know you'll take that as a compliment.

Yes, Gary does have some Einsteinish qualities going.  I haven't done a Photoshop moment lately and I was tempted, but ...  [ban]

We've had a lot of new members since those days, so maybe you should explain your talents to them, or, better yet, temporary new avatar or how about MacSedge?
 
Ken,  you can dig up those posts - hint:  look for the the longest thread here.

I better save my attempts for Macgyver's appearance in a book to be published in January.  Yes.  The FOG dog will be in print!

Not kidding.

I have a remote chance to do the cover art, and I am working to get a fictitious dealer of a certain European tool brand worked into the series.  If it makes it to HBO it will be cool.

A proud Pappa,

Peter

Peter, You reverted back to the original picture in that long, long, really freakin' long thread, BUT, I did find the pic.  I had saved it. MacGyver meets Festool Trainer Brian Sedgeley - FOGtainer thread.

UGH! Bad dog, Bad dog!
 
If his shop is dirty, messy, etc there is no word for what my shop is!
 
Those seemed to be priced pretty high even with the sale price. Here is a quick look through The Google [smile]
