Thought of the day .

[C.J.]

Now you’re speaking my language I have a good story

Picture this, seven, riding a Schwinn bike with a banana seat and popping wheelies up the street with friends. I chose to ignore my bodily functions in pursuit of none stop fun. Then the urge to hit hard. I made it to the driveway - toilet releasing, while simultaneously hitting the 3” curb. It was a huge that turned into a pancake Especially after my *** jammed back down into the seat……overcoming much internal embarrassment, this seven year old brain focused on hiding the evidence. Phase one, get past Mom without a guilty face or a funny walk. Phase 2 , peel chocolate pancake into toilet,
Phase 3, scuttled undies into the back corner of the closet on my brothers side ……Mom eventually found them a month later and that’s where phase 4 came in, deny, deny and blame it on your brother

I’ve definitely gone home with less clothes on than I left the house with for similar reasons as well as I do have a spare pair of boxers and a roll of TP in my van, but you trying to hide your dookied up drawers in the back of the closet is priceless.

I had that happen about 3 years ago. Got hit with the urge about 5 miles from the carpet store I used to work at. As soon as I stepped out of the truck it happened. I snuck in the dorr stairght to the can and finished the job wrapped my underwear in paper towels and dumpstered the. Went home comando. not a good feeling when you aren't used to it, besides blue jeans are a little rough.

My wife has that problem with her diabetic meds. It can hit her all at once.

I’ve had these calipers for a few years now. It came with a replacement battery that was in its own blister pack and I always had to be careful not to lose it. Today I figured out that the battery has its own storage place. Hmm.

 

[DarisMulkin]

I have 2 pr of calipers. Use the heck out of them. One is metric and the other inches. No batteries. But batteries have a shelf life and die. Yours may not be any good.

I figure the spare battery is the same age as the one that’s in the calipers so when it’s dead they’re both done fer likely.

Never lend money to friends and family.
It’s dangerous.
It could damage their memory

I have a caliper and have never used it.

I just used mine yesterday. Sure saved a lot of time from running back and forth into the garage to get a socket when working on my truck and guessing what size the bolt was.

If it's Starrett, I'll give you $20 and take it off your hands.

I think after Pete downplayed the chemical spill by saying we have a thousand train derailments every year......
....maybe the media is simply reporting them now.
