Day 19, Mac is going with a  Spydernox compact mod with Phillips today.
Beautiful mod.

Feel better Humayd, and Happy Easter (or other relevant spring holiday) everyone.

Day 20

Visa Climber that I keep in the kitchen drawer fixed a loose doorknob before the family came over.
The kitchen SAK is very useful.  I started keeping a Pioneer X in the kitchen a few years ago and my wife thought it was strange.  Now she uses it more than I do

Wenger Picnic (aka Basic 62) today

Going with the Wenger Cyclist today
:like: :drool:

I bought a nice fresh baguette for 36 cents.
Score! :tu:

Seems i'm coming down with the flu.
Hope you're feeling better by now!

Hope everyone had a happy Easter! And it seems like Gary sent some of those cookies my way. I've seen those ads for Megyn Kelly photos on my PC lately. She still doesn't ring my bells.

Great work by awl! :2tu:
USN 2000-2006

Culling of the knife and multi herds in progress...

If I pay five figures for something, it better have wings or a foundation!

Day 20

The power strip for my computer and entire work-from-home setup died yesterday. The main blade on my Climber got me into the packaging for its replacement.

Day 19: Carried the Explorer and had to use the tweezers to remove a splinter from my daughter's hand and the small blade to cut tape on Easter eggs that the kids gathered at our town's annual Easter egg hunt.

Day 20:
Attended Easter sunrise service, went to church, and then spent the rest of the day at my grandparent's house eating good food and visiting with family. Carried my new Hiker in a new Hitch & Timber pocket organizer. Only used the philips to adjust the scout carry strap on my fixed blade but didn't have my phone to take a picture at the time. Hope everyone's day was terrific!

Day 19 - not sure how I forgot to post  :think: :facepalm:

Climber came out to help with an ornery kitchen trash can with the push pedal.  The push pedal wasn't operating all the way.  Had to take apart the plastic mechanism to figure out what was going on.

May the best of your past, be the worst of your future.

Day 21

    I don't know what is happening with annoying internet ads.  I have been watching a certain sporting event for several days now.  There is over four hours of it, so I have been taking it a little at a time.  There must have been at least 50 ads that were campaigning against unregulated vaping imports. 
    My sole contact with vaping happened a couple of years ago.  I happened to be in the W-Mart parking lot when someone drove their car through the front of what was then a vape shop.  Later it reopened as Hell Cat Tattoos.  Why anyone would want a tattoo of a hell cat is beyond me.  Evidently lots of the 60+ year olds in town thought the same thing.  The shop has changed its identity again.  Discount clothing, I think.  Might sell t-shirts with hell cats on them? 
    There seems to be a rumor that I am behind the unwanted visitation of a blonde woman named Megyn.  It seems she is trying to hook up, or sell peeky boo photos or something.  I disclaim all knowledge of her.  I didn't send her and if she brought any cookies with her, she didn't get them from me.
     MacGyver has been carrying his big silver SAK for a couple of days.  Might as well see a photo.  Best wishes.  G
 :whistle:

Day 16:

I worked from home on Wednesday to avoid driving with an injured eye. 

I also went to my eye doctor and he confirmed what the urgent care nurse has said, that I have a scratched cornea. He also prescribed eye drops and ointment. Most importantly, though, he gave me some sunglasses lenses that fit inside my glasses so that I can drive without my light-sensitive eye watering.
Current SAKs: Explorer, SwissChamp, Handyman (modded), Climber, Super Tinker, Tinker, Woodsman (modded), Electrician, Pioneer, SwissTool, Executive, Ambassador, Champion Plus
Current Leatherman tools: PST, Original Wave, Wave, Wave+, Blast, Bond, Curl, Style PS, Micra

Boomer Sooner!

Back at work today, now that I can drive with the sunglasses I got from my eye doctor. My eye didn’t bother me as much today.

My only SAK use was to peel a clementine.

Nice.  I think the firefly, especially paired with helix tinder, is such a cool accessory.  It won’t throw the biggest spark but once you get the hang of it, they will work to start a fire.
Thanks guys,i am feeling better,throat is a bit scratchy and some sniffles
