Left hand drill bits are a must have. It's a requirement for All Small Broken Bolts. Saved me so very much time today. Thank you left hand drill bit. (Available at your local hazard fraught for $9 something for a set of 13, 1/16-1/4)

As I took the dog for a walk this evening, I saw an old lady using an umbrella as she moved her sprinkler to a different location in the yard. Why have I never thought of that?

Whoever designed the pipe wrench deserves a beer for an excellent tool. Only downside being that it has to be used the right direction, lol.
Just witnessed it being perfect for old rusty stuck brake fittings that were rounding before turning.

I have never had great luck with the pipe wrench. That may have something to do with the fact I never realized it can only be used in one direction......

Yes, that is the critical piece. Look at how it slips. When done the correct direction (with the "C" pointing in the direction of the turn) the harder turn it the more it pinches the part. You pretty much always push "down" to grip and turn.

That totally makes sense now that its pointed out. I have a large pipe wrench, but its function for most of its life has been a make shift hammer for when things go totally wrong and I am already pasted the point of pissed off to make rational decisions on how to fix something.
So I just beat the hell out of said project with the large pipe wrench until I am no longer mad.
Wonder why I have been told many times that patients is a virtue???

Well, patents are pretty much a virtue only if you're a doctor making money off of them.
Patience, on the other hand, is useful for everybody

Then.......
Actually ....
Patents are a virtue for inventors protecting their work.
Patience is a virture for everybody,
Patients is a virtue for doctors that are making money off of them.

Global entry is a pain in the ass. Hopefully it's worth all this headache to get it done.

It's worked well for me. Get the mobile passport app for your phone and save yourself the hassle of completing the paper form on your return to the USA.

You are paying too much! Get a NEXUS and that will get you Global Entry AND Nexus lanes for US/Canada crossings AND TSA Pre-check AND it's cheaper than Global Entry. (But you probably have to do the interview at a US/CA border crossing) It was pretty darn easy in my opinion, but I was also regularly crossing the border when I got mine, so it was easy to schedule the interview.

Same here. We haven't had rain in weeks and the trees are going into survival mode and dropping all their leaves. And of course we are loosing the shade because of it.

How in the hell do you miss all the flashing red and blue lights, the cones, flares and safety vests and run into a friggin firetruck?!?! Same truck (2101, our primary tanker and second due) got hit again less than an hour later.... That idiot also hit the heavy tow(tour bus reported on fire) company service truck! Hint hint: a 3000 gallon tanker does not move when your compact car hits it. C'mon people.
