So, MANY years ago ( like 50 ) me and my Best Friend Bobby where playing on a summer day and this is how it went down..... last Guy to the Hose drinks Second! We raced back to his house and I beat him by 20 Lengths ( he wore the Hefty jeans ). I grabbed the loose end of the hose stuck it in my mouth and spun the handle........only to get a mouthful of Earwigs!!!!

That was a LONG time ago and I STILL can feel how Skeeved I was........Earwigs!!!

Occasionally I have to empty the black tank on my RV at home. I have a macerator that pumps through a garden hose. OK, you know where this is going. I use an old garden hose that I keep in the back to water my blueberries. One time, after the hose had been used, I was back there and got my hands all dirty and decided to just rinse them off. Unfortunately, the hose had not been used since the RV tank and my hands smelled like pee for several days. I least I didn't drink from it.

Yep, I used a white felt-tip marker for this on the black impact sockets. :thumbsup: The indented marks show up much better. I don't use the impact sockets a lot, so for me it lasts a long time.

It seemed like the rough black finish was ideal for the marker I used. Come to think of it I might have used a white Mean Streak marker on the sockets instead of a Sharpie. I don't use mine often, either.

Just got a flier in my email that the four days around Thanksgiving have 15% off coupons on all the things that are not normally discounted. Tool chests, branded tools, etc. Would be worth a look as long as they didn't put temporarily higher prices on things in order to discount them. Probably not but never hurts to verify.

Which they do... vary the pricing through out the year to compensate for coupons and such. Good idea to go back in your emails/mailers for the past year to find the lowest price if you are patient. Then note the time of year and likely that lowest price will come again same time next year.

I posted a link to the 15% off anything above.

The problem with a generator is when you need one you most likely really need it. If it breaks you can't wait weeks for a part to show up. I have an old Generac with a Honda that's a little too small for my needs. I have looked at the HF options but just can't pull the trigger.

I've had the HF 8700w one, 3 maybe 4 years now and every time I need it to do its job, it fires right up and does it!
