10-4 Tela. I see the dilenemaenema that you were in. Let me know when you want some coral.
Jean-you jumped past me-a hamchet, please elaborate
Scott-I beg to challenge, not just any spring clamps, but 'wood block jammed spring clamps', the best invention on that saw.

Thanks, Scott. I didn't think I needed to elaborate the obvious...
Southern engineering - isn't that the basis of shade tree mechaniching?

Being a welder I should connect a hammerhead to the other end of the %#$&(@ ratchet That's it That's what is getting ready to happen. A ratcher. I will make small so you guys can store it where the sun don't shine. I know you are away for a few days having fun, James, so this will be waiting for you when you get back. That is a very ingenious and functional little tool now. I wonder why no one thought of it before. But when that rachet quits working, I don't think Sears is going to take it back...

I been thinking about the trade name for this new tool. Jim calls it "The Ratcher", Jean calls it "The Hamchet"; I on the other hand have considered Jim's proposed use for this piece. Therefore I ask you to re-consider the name and call it "The Rammer".

Yeah, I like it! Short, descriptive, easy to say, sort of just rolls off the tongue - rrrrammmmer. Especially appropriate when you consider where James said we could all put it!

Now you learn another of my superpowers. I am good a naming shit. I also was privileged to make up names for many herptilian forms in my 11 years of retail.

If I had had the rammer 20 odd years ago, I wouldn't still have glass in my fingers. Doh!

That James, he's no dummy. Notice anything different? He pulled a switcheroo on us! He didn't muck up that good Craftsman 3/8" drive ratchet, he substituted a cheapy pos one. Didn't catch that earlier. Sneaky, James, very sneaky.

Great catch! LOL!!!! In his defense, though- I wouldn't want to mess up on my Craftsman, either.

Being a welder I should connect a hammerhead to the other end of the %#$&(@ ratchet It was the fact that he IMPLIED that he was connecting the hammerhead to the other end of the "%#$&(@ ratchet." He didn't say he was going to use a different, el cheapo tool. Inferior materials!!! That's no way to run a business...

I am all clean and showered. In my motel in White Springs FL. Found coral at Black Bay. Met a couple of teen age black kids riding buy on a golf cart and gave em some tumbled coral. Asked them if they knew where any piles of rock may be(like a farmer would set aside). They kinda laughed and so I said "oh, you guys are from Florida and don't know what rocks are" and they laughed again. I showed them a pile in the back of the Civic and by then they were pretty bored w/the whole affair. And I asked them if there were in gators in the creek I swam across to get to some coral on the other side. They said one lived in a side swamp that was good size. I said it would probably vomit Georgia people up and they said NOT. The little creek is Swift creek and it was rockin at about 6 feet per second, 20 feet wide and deeper than me. I hiked to it and all the dang coral was on the other side. Felt great. I want to see if the canoe outpost on the Suwanee River would tote me back to my truck If I did the about 4 mile run. That is one fast creek. The coral was all clear and or grey, so boring. I see that you folks are inspired by the buttplg I designed for you. I certainly won't use it for such. I did use a Walmart grade ratchet and not the craftsman, but I fell out when you mentioned returning it to Sears, Jean. Imagine the look on their face. "Uh, I got to go get my manager" hahaha I already thought about the rammer 'butt' it was too xxx for the mood at the time. Now that yall let it hangout then sobeit. Whatever floats your buatt. Maybe Scott can give it a herptillian name form form name. You guys keep an eye on Tela. I think she is a little too fond of my newly invented device. I bet money she will 'like w/the thumb stuck upwardly' this particular post cause she may also be a perv. On that note I got to get some serious rest so I can do 14 Scottadays tomorrow. This convo made my hemoroids sore.

I get no peace around here. I covered the POS ratchet. Very happy that you noticed that Jean. Need to pay close attention Jamesp; he will sneak out of the bushes on ya.

Oh no, HUGE compliment. I thought about it before I typed it real carefully.
Ah hell, let it fly. It was a calculated risk. Hot description in man's wandering mind:) Do go the flattery direction
