The one that I had took ten of them, and they didn't last long. Needless to say, it stayed on the shelf.

If a jobs not worth doing then its certainly not worth doing well.

This bastard "dry" bit me this morning. Still did the ER trip just in case and waited it out. Great way to ruin an afternoon. Good news is that he was in the same spot when we got home, so at this point I am in MUCH BETTER condition than he is! :D

I had to scramble to get my phone out mid entrance ramp. Also looking through window tint. But I thought it was cool looking

Not my picture, but this post made me post this. This flag is about 10 minutes from my house, and is proudly displayed by a local metal firm. This is the tallest flagpole in the Commonwealth of Virginia. The flag itself is 40' x 76', and I believe that makes it one of the largest displayed in the country. Not a gov't project, and not out to make a point, just a local company showing their pride in their nation. It isn't perfect and has issues, but it is well worth having pride in.
