LOL, most of the time I am searching while traveling or in meetings. The eclectic mix or wide variety is in direct proportion and correlation to the absurdity of the meetings I have to attend! The more brainless the meeting the more varied it gets!

I grabbed one of the Bayco SL-875 26-Watt Double-Bright Fluorescent Light with Grounded Receptacle on 40-Foot Metal Reel.

Thanks for posting Duker.

Now in reference to you being bored in your meeting(s) and searching AWD.

Meeting chairperson, "We propose to shutdown the oil line for 4 weeks to repair section 2 through 7. Duker, are you ok with us doing that"?

Duker, Oh yea that is good!

Meeting chairperson, ok so be it, close it down.

Unbeknownst to other's in the meeting, Duker just found an awesome deal on AWD for a set of Wright wrenches.

I have to admit I sort of threw myself under the bus already a couple of weeks back...

I was in a meeting/conference call focusing on the viability of a debt deal to expand an MLP pipe waiting my turn to run through some numbers. Of course during the meeting I was doing a search on pipe wrenches as I needed a bigger one for a project. They asked me to chime in and when I did I meant to say....blah blah “in the pipe when” I instead said “in the pipe wrench.” One of my analysts who works for me almost blew Starbucks through his nose as he knows what I am doing during these meetings. I made a weak effort to recover but it was apparent I had a major brain fart....

Hey Duker, thanks for the recent posts.

They got me thinking how nervous I CONSTANTLY am about oily waste in my shop trash. I switched to a steel can (from a Rubbermaid) a few years ago but that was the extent of it.

I missed the safety can you posted but it was a blessing - 21 gal is bigger than I need and floor space is at a premium in my shop despite being a 40x50.

I found a 6 gal (perfect - just a bit bigger than a 5 gal bucket!) for $42 in AWD. Only about $8 off retail but priceless for peace of mind.

A really nice detached 2 car garage that would make many members here drool just burned in my area because of stain-soaked rags.

Everyone should consider spending $50 to avoid 10's of thousands in loss.

Amen to that. I deal with the potential for spontaneous fires a lot as I will many times make my own mix of furniture finish. It really hit home when Ryan posted the damage done to his shop from rags that combusted in a trash can.
