Ex at era... exeterra... exit terra - no wait... except era? No...
Here, journalists often pronounce "boutique" with first syllable stressed...

That would be the shop where bouts are procured!

How about INsurance. It's a southern thang, but extends as far west as AZ...

According to my "logic", there must be "outsurance" somewhere...

Ah, like my logic that the opposite of in-house work would be out-house work ...

The opposite of oriented-strand board: disoriented-strand board!

Cold Heat - son got it for me for Christmas and it works on very lightweight jobs. Anything that presents a heatsink effect and it does not work well at all. For light wires it is ok, for anything with connectors or big solder pads on boards it is not. You are shorting out batteries to create the heat. Save your money. [Sure glad my son doesn't read here!!]

Yeah, that's right. A heck of a line for the King.

And I'm STILL waiting for my free easy stripper (mostly cheap plastic) that costs $5 or $7 (I forget its been so long)! Two postcards saying they are delaying shipping because of lack of product...
