    Good grief, Before noon, I hadn't had a drink, Wasn't overly tired, but I still could spell "Thought".

    Back when my boys were in HS I bought a Snap-on set of pullers I beleave they were around $1300. When I hung the cabinet on the wall BOTH boys had a fit because I put a lock on it. So I removed it and told them if any thing is missing the Garage gets a lock and they get no key. After that I never ran over a wrench or screwdriver in the yard with the lawnmore. Seems they figured I ment it. Both turned out to be good mechanics Both own and run there own busniess. My daughter well she hardly ever came into the garage as it was a place she would get somthing on her that didn't come off easy. Although she never hesitated to show up at the overhead door with her hand out for $$$$$ to go shoping with her mom .(My first wife) The second wife (curent and last) has no problem getting dirtyin the shop. new tool shows up shes right there "Hows that work" and she has to try it. The other day she had a welding job SHE wanted to do. So I set her up watched over her and she did real good. I got burnt tacking the first part but she did real good.

    That's pretty cool, looks like she has it all figured out.

    When the kids were younger, Dan was horrible about borrowing and returning stuff. Don wasn't bad, but if it was missing, Dan was the go to guy.

    One day I noticed lots of my tools were missing, so I started asking Dan if he had any of them. "Nope, not me." A few days later I asked again, and he said "I looked, and I don't have any of them." So while he was sleeping one morning I got his car keys and went out to his car. At the time he had a '67 Caddy with a huge trunk. When I popped the trunk there were tons of my tools in there.

    I loaded up two cardboard boxes with tools I found in his trunk and under the seat, and carried them into his room and threw them down on the floor. When I told him I found them all in his car, he said with a straight face " those weren't in MY car."

    Now, he is the neat freak, and gets mad if one of his tools are missing. Sometimes I take one, just to get even.
