    FL Man sues HOA to win right to park truck in his own driveway.

    I don't think the judge would have ordered the HOA to pay the owner's legal fees if he didn't have it in writing. Good for this guy. It sounds like he was pretty clearly in the right. HOAs do maintain property values and neighborhood appearance, which are important to most people. You want...

    Auctions, estate Sales, & Flea Mkts, Oh My 2

    This is cool. What's the story behind them? I assume they're for working on rifles?

    Do you keep some heat in your toolbox?

    Jesus, really? Having loaded weapons hidden outside your house sounds spectacularly irresponsible to me.

    Affordable garage cabinets?

    I'm using the unfinished cabinets from Home Depot, painted satin black. Hint: the Lowe's and Home Depot cabinets are from the same manufacturer, but the HD cabinets are of slightly better quality. They have wooden drawers (as opposed to particle board) and the base cabinets have a shelf.

    Is this guy nuts?

    Looks rare to me. The printing on the box is upside down!

    Phillips #2 Screwdriver Shootout

    My P2 Wiha (from the blue-handled 3k series) seems to have a soft tip too. I love the handle though. Maybe it appears to be worn because of the shape of the tip. It's interesting to see that it's smaller than the other P2s. I'll look more closely. I use a P2 Phillips screwdriver more than...

    I was robbed!!!

    At our kids' preschool, somebody has been doing smash/grab thefts of women's purses from their cars while they're inside dropping off their kids. Broad daylight, a decent neighborhood, and with people constantly coming/going. I can't believe they haven't caught the guy - it's pure tweaker...

    New blue Kobalt tool box at Lowe's

    The Kobalt boxes are really nice for the price. Unfortunately Lowe's "New Low Prices" on tool boxes and socket sets were temporary. Still a good value though. I have one of these, bought a few months ago when it was $170. I should have bought two of them...

    Accrued interest as a selling point on toolboxes?

    This is why I avoid Craigslist entirely. It makes me lose faith in people.

    I Was In Home Depot today............

    Those Pro Series screwdrivers are nice. Are they really imported? Husky's other drivers are made here by WF.

    Harbor Freight CEO accused by parents of 'looting' company

    Maybe. That sounds a little convoluted to me. Who knows what was really going on? His son's spending habits would support at least some of the allegations. Serious stuff. Twenty-five million dollar mansion. It's Harbor Freight we're talking about here, not Apple or Exxon.

    Should I buy this KRL761 / KRL791 combo?

    I'd be more likely to recommend a fancy box to someone who doesn't use it for a living. Most of the stuff we put in our home garages doesn't make economic sense - it's just a luxury. You sound like you really want it. Do it.

    If it were a matter of Danaher just making a shoddy product, Sears would have ditched them as an OEM long ago. The problem is that Danaher can't make a good product at the price point that Sears has set. And Sears is continuously discounting one product or another in these gimmick sales...
