It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

People (on both sides of the counter) at the DMV that feel the need to discuss personal shit.

If it doesn't relate directly to your license plates, title, or other official business that is being conducted at that moment, don't discuss it.  There are people waiting!

(This also applies to grocery stores, banks, anywhere where people need to stand in a line or take a number!)

Small size pt when I cant zoom in to see it. Like when I use the laptop.

BTW this may not stop me from being an offender...

Ive got a cheapo autozone inflator/gauge...worked really well until the internal orings and seals started sticking and hanging up on things they werent supposed to.  Then suddenly the you had to pull the trigger to see the tire pressure, and if the trigger was released, it just kept pressing from the tank.  No warrantee, so i ripped it down and greased all the rings...works again for now!  (im of the opinion if its broken, why not take it apart...worst case...itll still be broken)

was it a cheapo or a Snap-On/BluePoint/Matco/Mac or anything like that?....if so, at least you have the recourse of getting it replaced for little to no charge....

I had a cool little gauge I got from Napa. It was about 2 inches long and had a magnet on it so it could hide in the fuel filler door. that way it was always there when visiting a gas station. one day I put it on the valve stem and it blew apart into about 5 different pieces.
Nice idea but "Hencho en China"

They don't make Chinesium like they used to.

They cant possibly use junk like that in China, Their whole civilization would fall apart, Or so you would think..

don't laugh, your next order might be to make parts from it
it melts like butter yet at the same time breaks your tools
an element of variable density and hardness, it resides 2 feet to the left of the periodic table
