After 3 long weekends, my project in the basement playroom was done! I’d just finished running some new power and installing a winch to the main iron header in our dungeon/playroom. I’m a small building contractor with a successful business so I knew what I was doing, and the small yet powerful winch was a parting gift from a customer who was upgrading his garage and I instantly knew what I wanted to do with it.</p>/stories/2012/12/12/cuffed-by-tricia/Wed, 12 Dec 2012 00:00:00 +0000/stories/2012/12/12/cuffed-by-tricia/<p>Tricia was the best friend of my best friend’s girlfriend Brenda.
