Can openers are like staplers....there are only two types....working splendidly or working just enough to fuck up your attempts badly.

And it doesn't if they are cheep or expensive ones.  I have found the old ones work best

I saw a the fair being put up for tomorrow, dunno if I should bring my girlfriend there?
Last time, there was alot of fighting there and blood and everything and it might get abit too intense for her.

[edit] sort of went off topic there, at least I found my old phone and that is going on sale.

Nice gas trimmer & pair of brand new looking hedge trimmers on the neighbors scrap pile.

He got a load of scrap in the other night & told me to go take a look.

Nothing wrong with the hedge trimmers, gas trimmer had a clogged muffler (fixed & running great now). :thumbup:

Definately.  8)

We have an agreement of sort, if I find anything him & his buddy can scrap I'll throw it in the back of the truck if it's not too heavy, if it's too heavy I give locations.

I mainly look for stuff I can use, tinker with, something someone's asked about, or something I can definately resale. Don't mess too much with scrap unless I happen upon a truckload of copper or brass, which isn't likely around here. :laugh:

Were you tired?  My doc told me when you tired you notice them more as you stop concentrating as much on focusing.  When I first saw mine I thought I had an eye injury or was going blind but he told me that I was just getting older and my vision was changing and being tired just brought them out more

I am actually well rested today. I tend to have clusters of floaters for months at a time; after awhile I stop noticing them,
unless I'm looking at the sky or some other light-colored background. My eyes have been checked out often and nothing is wrong with them, fortunately.
