I started my car to go to work today and the starter wont stop running. The starter wasnt engaged but was still spinning even with the key shut off. I used my Crunch to take a cable off the battery to kill the power. Wiggled the wires on the starter tighten up the battery cable and restarted my car and all was well, except it would seem I`ve got a short some where to sort out.
What? Enablers! Are you serrrrious? Where? I dont see any.

The shoppingcarts at the supermarket has a device to deploy 20 D.kr (4$) in, but the previous "user" couldn't get the coin out again and had just
left the cart.. Luckily I had my trusty 'Recaro' tm Sideclip so I pulled it out and gave it to my daughter..  :)

Reminds me  of a song.

I think Alcohol, Tabacco and Firearms should be a convenience store, not a government agency.

Use small blade on Explorer plus to cut wrapping paper.  Used the scissors to cut paracord on a small leash I made for my niece.  Explanation:  The leash is NOT to put on my niece.  She has a puppy that's a mix of a papillion and a poodle and since my niece likes to take her for walks, I figured she'd like a leash that is more her size.  I made it out of paracord in Dora the Explorer colors: pink, purple, orange, and brown.  It looks funky but I think she'll like it.  And I need to pull the Tinker out again and fix the vacuum.

I suck at using scissors on paper...especially wrapping paper.  So got out the yard stick and used the blade...worked much better.

I was going to EDC a Skeletool today but went with a Wave instead , used the plain edge blade and scissors loads as well as the phillips .Glad I did EDC the Wave as it has my Fenix L0D in the pouch and I used that loads too for looking behind the computer to plug various things in .

Raker Ring Tool, FTW!  Opens shrink wrap, opens plastic bags, slices string and cord!  And best of all, safe for intoxicated package opening!   :D

Used me LM Wave yesterday for opening presents and J2Os, today for putting a hole in my belt (which, ironically, will be used to hold said leatherman :P). By the way, I got my Wave yesterday! :D

i just saw this, you're very welcome mate. :tu:

Various SAKs went into cutting paper while wrapping (much faster than scissors IMO) and then my Pulse and P4 did quite a bit of unwrapping, installing batteries and cutting plastic ties etc.
Be excellent to each other and always know where your towel is.

Not exactly the kind of elegant or life-saving task my Spirit is used to, but...

...I've just used my Spirit to almost pry open the cd tray of my notebook! That's because it seemed to be stuck, and I know it can be done with a pin, but I needed to listen to some Bob Marley so badly that I haven't cared a bit and did what it had to be done. Now I'm jammin' and I hope you like jammin' too... :D

Merry Christmas, guys. :)
