A 2x4 (unit of lumber) is actually 1-1/2" x 3-1/2" .

I notided that as a kid helping my father. Always wondered why... My brother-in-law is in timber (well until the new home starts fell and the upgrade your current home fad died and 95% of the mills in the US closed, for the time being anyway) I'll ask him. He's been unemployed for 15 months now, he's got the time unfortunately.

Speaking of Hans and my nephews...
Yesterday, while playing with Levi (age eight), something came up and I asked if he knew that Hans Solo was the same actor who played Indiana Jones. He took it in for a second before blurting out, "He's the coolest guy in the world!!"

That is AWESOME! Funny, I used to think the EXACT same thing at age 8. I wanted to be Harrison Ford... how could ANYBODY be cooler than the guy who was both Hans Solo and Indiana Jones?!?! I still kind of feel that way today, 24 years later... Cool

Andy by the way, for me Episodes 1-3 are garbage compared to that original trilogy!

I agree with your nephew. How can you get any cooler than that, unless it would be to play the president of the US who fights off terrorists who hijack Air Force One?

Wait a second.... Shocked

Not to mention he was in Blade Runner.

One movie will always knock him down in my charts, though.

Two words:

Hollywood Homicide.
