Six episodes and forgot dinner entirely? That's brutal. My record is four and a half before my wife physically unplugged the TV and pointed at the fridge. That docuseries about the missing jogger really does that to people, the pacing just keeps you hooked until 1 AM.

Used to swear by PB Blaster for everything, figured heat was just for exhaust bolts and stuff. But after watching that pin slide out clean with 90 seconds of heat, I grabbed a cheap gun too and now it's the first thing I grab. Still keep the oil around, but heat just saves me so much time on rusty brake parts.

Aw man, that really stings. I felt that one in my gut, because I've been there with a fat-fingered number and watched the machine just eat money while you stand there helpless. For offsets, I started saying the number out loud before I hit enter, plus I'll punch it in twice and compare the two entries, sounds dumb but it catches most of my slips. The real kicker is when you're in a hurry because the job is behind, that's exactly when the typo happens. Hang in there, and don't let the foreman's stare get to you, we've all paid tuition at that school.
