The Warped Woodturner (TWW) is a local artist traveling his artist's journey in a suburb of Springbrook, WI (pop. 536). TWW's creative calling is to use a wood lathe to make useless objects from locally-sequestered organic carbon for tourists to bring back to the city to give to people they had to buy something for but do not like that much. His target market is the senior citizens since their vision is not as good as it used to be so cannot see the defects as well. His marketing jingle is: “Bowls as simple as their creator”.

Another freeloading success story or two

Mrs. TWW invited herself down for happy hour at the family cabin on Saturday. For some reason she did not put anything out to thaw that day for supper. At the end of happy hour the gracious relatives invited the TWWs to stay for supper claiming they had too much food and needed to share it. Mrs. TWW faintly tried to beg off but TWW dove right in saying they would be glad to freeload a supper (and it tasted great). On Sunday when the people came up to tour the house TWW realized he did not have any preuiums left (they had all been given way earlier) but the visitors were tactful enough not to ask where their promised premiums for the supper were.

On Sunday TWW broke his lathe again and was trying to fix it when GAGA of the Strawballs Company stopped by. GAGA helped TWW fix his lathe so it appears to be working again so if the bowl on the lathe at the time the lathe broke turns out Mrs. GAGA will get the bowl as a premium for the work done by her abused husband. If it does not turn out TWW will throw it in the fire pit since someone is sure to claim it from there.
