Anchor on a Toyota?

Inverted can of 'duster' spray makes actinic keritosis lesions exit stage right. Takes a while (and the first couple layers of skin)....

Let the Record show that Gunner Asch on or about Mon, 08 Mar 2010 18:55:50 -0800 did write/type or cause to appear in rec.crafts.metalworking the following:

Well, they're you're kids, so "You brung 'em in, you can take 'em out."

Buttered fatassses, meat sauce and uncooked steaks are way far yonder behind bacon grease as bear bait.

Justice is a sex offender lashed to a tree in the northwoods, liberally smeared with bacon grease, perhaps not far from the sex-offender prison (with color TV) in Moose Lake he dodged by legal chicanary. The prison is full but the northwoods is capacious.

Naw, Wes. I meant run whilst the bear is attracted to the other guy. Too bad if it happens to be your hunting companion.

pheromones, so you can

How fast do you have to run to out run a bear? Faster than the guy next to you.

Well, I've always been satisfied by first use of toilet paper. Never tried to reuse it.

Air Bags if they deploy and you walk away.

Then there is the whole aircraft parachute. Same disclaimer as above.

I doubt the Martin Baker ejection seat gets reused.

There is a saw stop technology that can sense your finger touching a table saw blade and stop the blade. It works once and then you replace it.

Back when I was injecting either fertility drugs into my now ex wife's buttocks or insulin into my dogs back, I figured one use on a syringe and needle was worth it.

I'm going to toss spare tire in. I've never used the spare for my Saturn, or my escort. I did once for my Ranger, shortly after the front tire left my truck at 70 mph never to be found again by me.

If you go through the trouble of taking self defense courses, obtain a carry permit, deal with carrying issues and need and have it just once. It was worth it.

What are you guys hunting with? I'm starting to think keeping a few 20ga slugs with me while bird hunting might be a good idea.

I bought some rolling head pry bars. Each lasted less than one use.

Same for some metal stamps. One hit on 1018 and my O stamp is now in BOLD FONT.

Don goes, "Anchor on a Toyota?"

Right on! Recent developments on the Toyota scene should put all Greenies out of the Prius mood.

I had the opposite happen. I lost my prized, slim 8" pry bar that I use to pull nails in tight places. I ordered the closest I could find on eBay, and it opened flat during the first use, it had no heat treatment at all. A few days later I was in HF and saw a two pack and figured, can't be any worse for 3 bucks. I tried one out on a nearby vise and it seemed OK. They are perfectly heat treated and tough as all get out.

But that the problem with Chinese goods, it's a crap shoot. Especially with metal properties.

Are you going to explain that last part, mon?

The 4-piece set? I still have mine 30 years later but only use it for alignment and as a jack handle. I think I've used one or another of them for prying two pieces of wood apart, too. Nothing rough.

Oops! I haven't tried mine yet.

I bought 2 4 piece sets while attending NAMES last year. I've killed four of them in matching pairs.

My Sears pry and a coupe of Mc Master Carr pry's are going strong still.

Try all the characters, I suspect they HT one character at a time in a large batch with typical varying results.

I'm thinking of a Toyota with a drag racing drag chute mounted for those JIC moments. :)

JIC moments. :)

A fuel pump cutoff switch?

And a battery cut out if a Prius.

I learned to handle WOT on a '84 Citation - drove it 7 miles to get off the thruway and to a location where I could kick the b*tch loose without hitting neutral and let it blow the engine. Gerry :-)} London, Canada

Are they breaking from being too brittle, or bending due to lack of hardening?

Bueno. My HF digging bar is just peachy. The medium pry bar with a round and a flat chisel end is softer than hell on the round end.

That would tend to suck. I'd have to go to HF and say "Hi, Mr. Manager. I'm going to need all your sets of alphanumeric stamps, a hammer, and a place to sit and try them. Here are the bad characters from the set I bought. I brought my own metal to sample 'em."

Hmm, I wonder if it's just not worth it?
