The Laws Of Nature According to TBN

In the history of the world if any man ever deserved being lynched it was that guy Murphy...!

I remember I was looking for one of those propane bottle refill valves, that I REMEMBER FOR SURE that I hung it up on the pegboard for safe keeping.... I was looking and looking... really frustrating myself. I needed to use the little torch for something and the bottle was empty.... so drove down to the store and bought another bottle. After doing the job, I went back to the bench... sure enough, there it was ..... hanging right behind the next item that I hung on the same hook for "safe keeping":mur:

Years ago a bike helmet I bought had a sticker for you to write your name & emergency contact info on. One line said "Medical conditions" So of course the wise-*** in me had to write "i am injured from a bike accident"

Plus they work when the temperature gets below 30ｰ. Maybe not a big deal where you live, but it sure is here.



No kidding! Likewise, a cord that was neatly coiled when it was put away ties itself into multiple knots while in storage.



This goes double for a misplaced tool, especially one you need NOW. Best way to find it is to get cleaned up/change clothes, go to town and buy a new one. The old one will magically appear while you're gone. :confused3:

Now U know why I have so many measuring tapes! vice grips and pliers.

If your paint is only available in 1 gallon sizes, your project will require 1 gallon and 6 ounces.

But that's good for guys that frequent re cycle centers---(gallons of good paint with only 6 oz missing )

Who said anything about replacing the fixtures? I just threw away the ballasts , checked and made sure the tombstones weren't shorted out, and plugged in the LED tubes in place of the fluorescent tubes. No repainting, no replacing of fixtures. No worries. I am busy enjoying the money savings, the fact they come on in the garage when it is freezing cold, and the extra light. I don't see any downside. OH, on top of that they don't make any RFI either.

Yep, pretty simple with huge gain.

Sometimes our birth date inhibits our progress.

No matter how many tools you cram into a belt, tote, bag or box, once you get up the ladder, you'll be missing at least one that you need.

There is absolutely no question that the fastest way to find a missing tool or part is to purchase a replacement. The missing one will show up as soon as you return with the new one.

It matters not what you have, what matters is what you can find.

And - I don't know about you, but my wife hides my s%$t and the fact that she always knows where something is proves it.

Thats been my belief for a long time. But she denies it. Need to put up some trail cameras. .
