Del is right, If you need a metric adjustable torque allen wrench with turbo, you simply ask, and he says "its right over here, you want that in red, or white, or gold plated?"

You know I remember back when I was a kid, my older brothers and sister had a contest going to see who could buy me the loudest and most annoying toys out there. My folks would take the batteries out of them, then I learned to put them back in, so they put them in backwards and I learned to put them in right, then dad would take it apart and snip the power wires and I learned to take them apart and twist the wires back together so I have to give my siblings credit for all my knowledge of electronics lol.

Sounds like you had some great brothers and a sister. I just tell my nephews and nieces to let me know if they need more batteries. So they have a lot of batteries thanks to their aunt. Just remember paybacks are heck, I learn the hard way.

Paybacks are heck, but my girls are grown now and they still talk alot about the good times with their grandpas and grandmas. Unfortunately, their grandparents are all gone now. They even remember when they were real little that great grandma always had Juicy Fruit gum and Hersheys bars.

I say give the grandchildren anything they want to eat and drink. Then run after dropping them off with mom and dad. I told all three of my sons that so far none have married yet one is working on it,they asked why I would do it.

I told them that is for all the years of torture they have caused.

Now what would the little lady say knowing that you told another lady about your undies.

As for the little one coming up, your not going to win. The other uncles and aunts have you beat.

Its a regular topic for discussion here, so I am sure she would be perfectly ok with it. If he started showing them to you, is when she might get concerned. she might even volunteer to pay your therapy bills afterwards.

Don't need to see them. I would pay her bills or should I say his doctor bill when she got done with him.

In some ways, I'm surprised that Flip's wife even lets him hang around with this bunch, but she had even come to some of our gatherings. I don't know why she let him continue after that.
