I Don't Shop - I BUY

[pdub]

Sue Unit is so much the consummate shopper, always the right thing at the right price.

I don't shop. I buy. I know I'm going to take over the regular maintenance of our fleet. I've got all the tools but I just need something to put the used oil into. Yep, an oil catch thing. Ordered it from Hazard Fraught.

It came today. It's not quite what I imagined. I'm going to need a taller floor jack.

thats funny! now you need a hoist!

[Deaf Bob]

SMART!
Buy all the "hoist" tools then Unit gotta let you buy the lift!

Good thing about a lift is you can store 2 cars in one space....

Not quite, Bob. The hoist will require a good 6-8 feet in extra width.

it didnt have a picture of it when you ordered it?

I no longer bother doing my oil changes. Getting rid of the used oil is more of a pain and I figured I wouldn't save $5 doing myself even buying the stuff on sale.

Scott, (incredulously) They don't have storm drains where you live???

That's kinda like having a nice set of valve covers and buying/building a car to put them on. That logic will sometimes work on the women folk if you catch tem at the right moment.

I had that idea about 12 years ago. The first oil change I paid for labor they left the filter just loose enough to leak. The second time they left the drain plug loose. If I have to crawl under it to inspect their work I can just do it myself without the extra work sales pitch.

I'm sure you fertilize the grapes with your used sludge. Seriously, I do try to be somewhat clean.

However, in California, I understand they tax you to breathe and take you to court if you don't. Just what I hear.

Scott, just ramp it up the curb right there at tbe drain streetside, gives plenty of room to shimmy up ths gutter to pop that drain plug. Beauty is all that oil will pour straigbt down that hole! Away she goes and where it ends up nobody knows!


...hope you guys realize I'm just kidding around here

I figured he used it to knock down the weeds on the fence line.

They now paint cute little fishies on every storm drain now as a way to make you feel guilty for dumping sewage down the storm drains. In LA, all the storm drains lead to the LA River, the big drainage ditch that dumps into the Long Beach Harbor. I guess the bazillion cargo ships and oil tankers in the harbor don't leak a drop.

Ahh, the LA River; so picturesque! Such a name filled with promise. Nothing like the natural beauty of a concrete ditch. Loved it in T2.
