Default Odd stuff

Ever notice that if you spill syrup on the kitchen counter you get ants. But if you spill sugarless syrup nothing will touch it. They just know it ain't real food. We pay more for it and eat that stuff, yet we think we are the higher life form. Gotta make ya think.

Another odd thing I learned today..... When you bake welding rods, they do NOT smell like chocolate chip cookies. It smells like the house is on fire.

Dawn, or any of it's clones, dish washing soap is the best I have found for grease.

Yeah you just need to warm them up to get rid of the moisture.
I have found fried chicken to be a great after the shop hand cleaner. Better than Boraxo!
