Nico, I wish I had family like that.... mine where all shopkeepers, butchers and carpenters... Cheers, Torsten.

I'm also a shopkeeper and carpenter, I think it's nothing to be ashamed of.
Without the "workers" the best "Warrior" could not exist.

Is this some sort of biblical reference (building your house upon the 'rock') or is 'house builder' somehow different than Carpenter or do you know for a fact he was a mason, HVAC tech or plumber?
