The Tungsten Challenge...12/15/08
The Challenge: Show us your interpretation of the word, "Tungsten."
The Participants: Kre8ive, John (300m), Johnloguk, Creative Deviance, The Curious Camel, MyKey, Trevlan, and myself.
The Result: Tungsten: A rare metallic element having a bright-gray color, a metallic luster, and a high melting point, 3410(degrees)C, and found in wolframite, tungstite and other minerals:
used in alloys of high-speed cutting tools, electric-lamp filaments, etc.
**********************************************************************************************************************
Yeah, Yeah, I know; it's boring! Especially compared to the submission from Trevlan!!
But, damn, he beat me to it!! Had to go for plan B!!
So, I'm in the hardware store, with my camera; took these three items off their shelves, laid them on the floor, and began taking a few shots. The 'helpful hardware guy' greets me with "Excuse me, do you need any help?"
Me: "Well, maybe! Do you have any more 'tungsten stuff'?!"
His reply: "Huummm, well.....have you checked out the hammers and drill bits?"
Me: "No, not yet........but thanks anyway!....I'm done now! I just LOVE these blades!!"
With that, I put them back on the shelves, and made my departure!
