Almost there…

A small cordless drill with a torque setting plus a driver set. A short flexible bit holder for the tight spots.

Drop the torque setting all the way down then use the drill for most of the work. Then finish tightening with a reacheting screwdriver.

The lesser known history:

Gordy was moved up to an assistant to the upper echelons in 1958. This was right at the time Henry Moyle almost bankrupted the cult with massively overspending on building construction. Combined with the Baseball Baptism scandal they need somebody for damage control.

Gordy was a journalist by training who excelled at propaganda. He was a master of the craft. He buried the baseball baptism scandal and hid the financial records. For this in 1962 he was promoted up.

He was likely heavily involved in hiding the rampant sexual abuse issues in the cult. Hiding and flat out lying about how how much money the cult had amassed and excelled at being the slimy smiling bastard distracting everyone from the facts.

Companies who have checklist to make sure they get “all” of the company property back are awesome. It’s always made by HR with no clue what the job entails. I returned all of the company property listed items on the checklist.

Gordy was anextremely successful liar. He was responsible for the majority of the massive hoarding of wealth.

Last layoff - real human beings- “Do you have time to drive to the office for a meeting? We are so sorry, business isn’t going well an we are having to cut whole departments. You are laid off the end of the week plus severence. Return the truck laptop, phone etc then. We’ll transfer the phone number to you, the supplier contracts etc that you brought in, we will sign off to you as well.”

Layoff before slimy corporate shills (all laid off a year later) teams meeting labeled as business discussion". Surprise, HR is on the call. You are not allowed to drive the company vehicle. At the end of this call IT will cut off the laptop phone and we’ll arrange for for someone to go to you house and collect company property.

So I drove the truck for 4 hours to collect all the stuff from my 3 offices. Then grabbed a guy from the last stop to drive the truck back after I finished cleaning it out at home. While I was driving I called up the new job I was supposed to start 2 months later and said, “Hey you guys OK will me starting next month instead?” I then took a nice 3 week vacation. Getting severance from a job I was going to quit, chef’s kiss .

He’s a fucking amateur compared to the experts.

Mormons have hundreds of billions.

There’s a vast difference between advertising a good product that is useful to hyping trash.

Good products at a reasonable price usually require a brief introduction but quickly snowball into customer based word-of-mouth sales.

Hype is used to push an inferior or marginally useful product at a higher price.

Remember advertising is expensive. The money to pay for it has to come from somewhere. The more they push a product the higher the margin the company/investors expect to make on its sales.

This is why if I see more than one or two ads for a product it goes on my mental checklist of shit not to buy.

How about the Citric Acid Cycle then?

Lead arsenate was a very common pesticides for decades.

I probably should work on getting the bush type plant mutant into the giant pumpkin germplasm again.

The first tests were had a 400lb pumpkin into a 8’x8’ plot. They split and cracked however.

In my area the self checkout systems at the grocery store often fritz out an don’t register the item. This is even after they beep. It’s truly wonderful. I consistently get 50% or more of the items in my cart for free. Nothing they can do to me either. They have me on video scanning every item. If their system buggers up the total it’s on them.

If they want somebody to catch computer errors then there’s a thing called “pay a employee.”

U.S. car standards today are determined by the size of the bribe contribution to the politicians superpac fund.

During the last housing bubble, you could rent the same place for less than 1/2 the cost of buying it. Renting and investing made more sense then.

Currently buying a house is overpriced but rent is even more so.

The best financial decision right now is to live with your parents your entire life. If you don’t have a parent you can stay with, then a tent and cardboard boxes in the park it is.

I have around 12,000 tracks, 70GB.

I have “purchased” thousands of books from Amazon, but never given them money for a book.

They run free specials all the time. FreeReadFeed scans for them. It’s a great way to discover authors to purchase their books at another site or use the library apps.

This one is extremely difficult to fix as well. Ad companies bribe politicians with reduced price advertising for political campaigns to prevent laws being passed to regulate them.

Which of course I haven’t received yet.

They keep promising it will be delivered next week or so for the past 5 years.

Some varieties of apples blooms are frost sensitive. Others can shrug off a frost and not really care. It’s a genetic difference in the cultivars.

So if you see a big ass fan in the orchard, it’s because the grower wanted to push a variety that is not well adapted to the local environment.

A sudden freeze will not kill the vines. Grapes are extremely tough. It can hurt the flower buds though. A severe enough freeze can cut the yield.

For wine grapes less fruit in the bunches = lower quality wine.
