    Kind of what I was implying lol :] I did think of you today :] Did your ears get warm lol . Helping a friend look at houses realtor was extolling the virtues of the place and it is nice I was looking at the furnace, water heater etc and noticed the galvanized pipe from the street line . I made mention of it might needing to be looked at since the house was built in the 60's . According to her she has never had a problem with galvanized piping in a home she has sold... Umm when did they stop using it for the contamination and the way it would build scale and close up ?

    It is an age old problem in almost any trade when you have your own tools you take care of them when they are the companies nope and if you break a company tool nope not telling etc don't want to get in trouble. Believe it or not even in the military we had the issue.

    Small useful for me stuff.

    I remember those days. That and the fact that I've invested heavily in tools to do the job. If the company loans me something I take as good care of it if not better than my own. It's a respect thing in my eyes and if you don't have it I'll teach you with a 2x4. Our jobs in the trades(that includes tech trades of all sorts) are fun enough without working with crap tools and info. Ok. I'd better get off this rant. :thumbsup:

    Well we could start on the folks who want to borrow a tool and right there in front of you in the shop or on the job they ohh toss it on the bench or some such thing. I learned my lesson with that to the tune of a 200 dollar Starrett Dial vernier caliper hitting the bench top when the guy took his measurement and dropped it with out a thought.

    Ahhh, I see. Let's give this a run:

    1) brown mustard, onion, relish, jalapeńos, and maybe a few drops of ketchup.
    2) never heard of/tried a Drake.
    3) Sprinklers, no doubt. However, ocassionally I am inclined to pull a Clint Eastwood in "Gran Torino." Is that an M1 Garand? (yes, I should know that...)
    4) My sweet Amy-Dog! although I still have the cat my last girlfriend left behind...
    5) Sorry, I am an American!
    6) Black, two cups per day.
    7) Well, I smoked up two pounds of bacon jerky just last night.
