And probably soon to be forgotten.

Hear people say You learn something every day. Unsure of the level of truth with that, but startingbthink about the range of experiences with this group and think there are certainly less useful threads posted here (a bunch of them mine).

So… if you learn something new, and you’d like to share with the group, please do.

Throw WD-40 in the trash and get some Kroil. Best penetrating oil in the world. Makes WD or PB Blaster seem like you're using nothing at all. You're welcome.

It works but it's expensive, smells terrible and is near impossible to wash off your hands. I have good luck with Break Free CLP and of course, heat.

Today's lesson (actually past couple of of months).

Just want to close out this term on these stupid management classes. Two more weeks. I'll be happy with getting an A- on them. I hate taking stupid management classes, I don't want to be a manager and college management classes are not very applicable to the real world but they are part of the curriculum so suck it up buttercup.

Exactly. I have and use WD and PB but Kroil in a needle bottle works like magic when cleaning fishing reels or bringing an old record turntable back to life. Good for guns, too

100%

Whenever I had to do any work on my car or something, I'd go to a good friend of mine's house. He has a large garage behind his house with all the tools you can imagine and pretty well equipped machine shop. If I snapped off a bolt, he had the stuff to extract it. If needed, he could craft a tool that would fit the job.

The guy doesn't have a formal engineering degree but he's way more of a real engineer than 90% of those that I've worked with. Need something made or fixed? Burt can do it.

Even with a couple decades in the corporate world, some of the things seen and said by people in management are hard to believe.

Academia couldn’t possibly even hit the dart board of reality. Unless someone came in from that world and spoke the truth- which in turn would drive people away from Business degrees in droves.

Simply put, even Jesus had a boss. And when thinking of the Holy Trinity, was technically self employed. All of my Fridays have been better than his last Good one.

No Quarter.

In battles where the side about to be victorious says the enemy will Receive no Quarter, it means prisoners would not be housed. Essentially all survivors would be killed.

Santa Anna offered No Quarter to those in the Alamo.
No Quarter was also the way the tribes played the game, which Whitey didn’t understand.

Santa Anna's order ensured the death of the Alamo defenders, but inspired the Texans at the Battle of San Jacinto where Sam Houston's revolutionary soldiers won and secured independence for Texas, their battle cry was "Remember the Alamo! Remember Goliad!"

For fishing reels I use Lucas extreme gun oil. I also use Lucas CLP.

My lesson for today?

If you have a 5 shot mocha for breakfast and a rueben sandwich for lunch, don’t trust your farts.

Whitey certainly doesn’t understand what a treaty means.
