    So sat the Forman gets donuts for the crew.
    So he enlisted someone else, a younger kid, to do it.
    So now I know what's coming. I make sure my sugars are a little low because of the donuts I'm going to inhale.
    So the kid shows up late. Like 30 min.
    NO DONUTS.
    So everyone is giving him a hard time cause it's these guys breakfast.
    One guy yells to me and says ######## forgot the donuts.
    So I'll paraphrase a little
    I start yelling.
    WTF MORON. WE ARE SUPPOSE TO HAVE DONUTS HERE BY 7:30. It's now 8:15 AND NO DONUTS. I MADE SURE MY SUGARS WERE LOW SO I COULD HAVE ONE. I NEED TO GET SUGAR IN ME NOW. THANKS TO YOU I NEED TO GET TO THE STORE FOR A CANDY BAR OR SOMETHING BEFORE I PASS OUT. THANKS FOR STEPPING UP TO THE PLATE .

    So one of the guys looks at me walking away and says to the kid.

    Good going asshole. You just pissed off the diabetic old guy...

    Omfg I though I was going to die. The tears started running down my face I was laughing so hard. I couldn't turn around .One other older tech sits down on the floor next to the car he has and says he's on strike untill he gets his donuts. The Forman told the kid you better do something. The kid jumps in the first car he sees and heads out the door to go pick up the donuts. He was back in like 10 min and stopped in front of my bay and put two boxes of donuts on my box.
    The whole shop is laughing.
    I'm laughing so hard Im coughing.
    The kid has this worried look on his face.
    It was the best sat. I have had in a long time.

    I want to close the vents in my mancave.
    Can't stand being hot in winter. But when I do they whistle.

    How about the boat on the trailer with the 3 or 4 outboard engines on it to air boat it down the road and use the other engines to turn it.
