But the guy who made the drawings for the building that those stairs are going in probably used a calculator.

Regular hair cutter?
I used to see one who kept a cigarette dangling from her lip and a hardwired phone pinched between her cheek and shoulder the whole time.
Cellphones weren't everywhere yet, so she had that knotted up 12ft cord wrapped around her.
Used to book my appt in afternoon so as to go home and get a shower from smelling like an ashtray afterwards.
But mercy sakes, she could get my hair to lay perfect (I had more of it back then) and all I had to do was half-assed hit it with the blow dryer for a moment and go.

She moved about twice a year, so I lost track of her eventually..... Sucks how so many of the gifted folks seem to be that way.
(I got a long string of jobs, myself. so I can't & won't ever gripe 'bout 'er)

Funny story moment? **
I was sitting in the waiting area (I was a bit early that day).
The ladies were commenting on my hair (it was waaaay healthier looking back then).
They asked, "what do you do to it?"
My dumb-assed answer? and dead serious too!!
"I usually flop across my bed and hang it over the side.
Then set the blow dryer on medium brown and blast it 'bout 2/3s dry
and then stick a motorcycle helment on it and take off for work."
oohhh man... that brief bit of silence was almost deafening.

These days? No longer working around machinery, So, (what little i still have), gets pulled through a couple of rubber bands and sorta forgotten about.

**And yes, I've casually asked the Shrink what's the boundary betwixt irreverence and Tourettes Syndrom.
They just laughed.

My mom was an industrial engineer. Math was her jam. She regularly explained to me how I couldn't help but use algebra and geometry in my daily life. Naturally.....my eyes glazed over during these conversations. She went so far sometimes as to break down processes I used to lay out stairs and rafters into mathematical equations. I asked her how the hell she knew the processes involved in such things. She said it was all simply common sense. She was a sharp cookie.

My eyes were glazed over during Algebra but it was second hour.

Round ground sounds familiar with it.

Lol you’re the one asking for help. Full chisel chain is round ground dopey. Square is not

Dirt just called, and they are offended...

FedEx just dropped this off. I ordered it from Lowes with a new snowblower that will be here in about 3 weeks. They shipped this second day air. I will never understand the shipping algorithms in use by the big box places.

I never had this kind of gas can before but my son swears by them

Pressure washed the house today. Tomorrow finish spraying my daughter's as I didn't finish the back side last year.

If you want to save time, I bought that bottle of house cleaner you put on the end of the hose, spray down the house and then rinse. Holy crap, the stuff worked. Doesn't hurt the grass or the plants. I was skeptical, but not anymore. Can get it just about anywhere. Give it a whirl and save your day. What used to take me hours now takes 10 minutes.

I like those too. No spillage until you push the rear button. I did modify the lock on the black cap though.

I reckon if gas prices keep rising, you might be right, Randy!

Lol

They are coming down again here. $3.15 ish/ 3.8 commie litres.

They are nice they don’t vent though so if during hot or sunny day before filling gas tank release the pressure first

Some people are just die hard slaving for the man

Or computer aided drafting

Not like you are 30 years younger than me slacker

 

[41FanForLife]

What way will you teach it starting next week?

They are pushing the calculator route. But framing squares never need the battery replaced

Good to know, thanks!!!
