Remember that Screw

A while back, I, the Crumby Ovate spelled "Get Screwed". That particular spell focused on a certain particular screw, the dimensions and characteristics of which are spelled out and accompanied with photographic evidence in the spell "Get Screwed". Now, Praise the Goddess, I have in my possession two of those particular screws. Both of them are hard at work for the nonce doing what screws are supposed to do, securing one object to another.

But alas, both of those screws are employed in a single quick release plate and the other quick release plate, much like one of the little piggies, I think it is the penultimate little piggy, has none. This situation is troubling, fer me. I am concious of the possibility that I have become a screw glutton. After all, I can't look out of two telescopes at once and I could always remove the quick release plate from one telescope and screw its two screws and that particular quick release plant on to the other telescope. But then it wouldn't exactly be a quick release plate, would it?

But what if I have companions that want to look out the telescopes too. How about that? I could have two telescopes set up at once and a bosom companion observing out of the alternative telescope and not pestering me about looking out of my telescope, maybe.

Then of course I have another justification for wanting more screws, safety. A telescope attached to a quick release plate with a single screw could easily pivot around that single screw and smack me or a bosom companion on the noggin. It could put yer eye out.

You may think, nevertheless, that this focus on screws is overdone and that I, the Crumby Ovate should find a better use for my time than fussing about these particular screws. But that is like telling Lulu the Cowbarn terrier not to chase rats. Terrier - Rats. Crumby Ovate - Particular Screws. Besides, chasing down screws is way more interesting than shoat skitter wrangling.

Because I am a Man of Action, I sent an e-mail to the source of those "one screw quick release plates". We shall see what comes, of it. That particular e-mail is replicated below. However, if you read my e-mail and their's, you will see that I, due to my excited state when I sent my e-mail, failed to follow their directions. So now I have to send Mike a separate particular e-mail.

Dear Spartanburg Photographic Center,

Yep. I got that quick release plate. Thanks. Now is there anyway that I could get some extra screws? I have two quick release plates now and two screws. I would ideally like to have two quick release plates and four screws or maybe five screws. Do you have any ideas on where I might be able to get some more of those particular screws that go in those particular quick release plates? I would really like to have some extra screws due to safety concerns related to telescope operations.

Please, please tell me how to get ahold of some more of those particular screws.

Thanks again,

Crumby Ovate
