It was a Fletch reference.

Do you get the best quality item everytime?

There are at least three things you NEVER go cheap on, and then other things situationally.

My dad always told me to buy quality shoes and your mattress. After all, you spend at least 1/3 of your life with them. This advice has served me well.

On top of that, I'd add in to always buy quality garbage bags, 2 mil minimum. In fact, sometimes I even double bag with those. This will virtually eliminate any possible tears or spills you might ever encounter. And if you ever worry about varmints or animals getting into your trash, pour a little bit of diluted bleach or ammonia IN BETWEEN the two bags before you tie them up, or just give a few squirts from a spray bottle. Problem solved.

Good tool advice has already been given. Common use items - sockets, box/open end wrenches, pliers, etc - buy the best you can afford. One time use items like that three jaw pulley puller... go to Harbor Freight.

Not sure about all the downvotes unless it is for a FB link. The story is interesting, and thanks for posting.

I halfway expect L. Sellers to resume his Heisman chase this weekend in a big way.

Is it possible that is a different girl from the "insults" video? The first one was wearing a red #8 jersey, and the pepper sprayed girl was wearing a striped shirt.

Last TD was BS. I’ve never seen us do that. No class by staff!

What a stupid statement.

I'd like for you to pretend for just a second that you are a coach, and you have to look the RB in the eye and say: "I know you practiced hard all week and gave it all on the field through almost all of the game. Now, here in the last minute, I want you go go out there and take the gas off and NOT do your best for the team."

If you can honestly say that... then I don't want you as an Alabama fan.

I have had 17 lithotripsies so far and am fighting a stone now. Plus I have a pill bottle half full of stones I have recovered myself.

I have passed stones on three continents, on multiple golf courses, and at 38,000 feet in an airplane. I can't say it has all been fun.

Night. I have no desire to go to bed while sweaty or dirty from the day.

Edit: Of course, getting sweaty or dirrrrty AGAIN is perfectly alright.***

My dad's neighbor used to work at Lowe's. He called my dad one day and said "Come down to the store, you're buying a mower."

Apparently some guy bought a mid-sized zero turn and just couldn't get the hang of steering it. So he took it back to Lowe's and some clerk accepted the return. One of the manager's marked it down for resale as a return at a huge discount, and my dad's neighbor was nearby and saw it and put a post-it note on it as already sold.

My dad ended up with a 52" inch Cub Cadet zero turn for $1500. It had eight hours on the engine time meter. It directly convinced me to get my own baby zero turn, a 42" John Deere years later.

But the point is, some people really just don't get the steering, their brain doesn't get the "push-pull" instead of "turn left-turn right". I don't think there's any shame involved, their brain just doesn't work that way. I sorta feel the same way about Texas A&M fans, but each to their own.
