The strongest man I ever met was a Thud driver that spent 7 years at the Hilton. He said he got to a low point and then said to himself, "No, I'm going home. I'm going to make it."
And he endured.

I just finished changing the locks on 45 tool boxes at Boeing Charleston. I bet they have 1000s of them out there and their tool control is crazy. Something about leaving a wrench in some obscure part of a plane being a bad thing. 
If you are OCD, you'd be in tool heaven. Every tool, in every drawer, has a specific place and a foam cutout that it fits in. In several areas of the factory, I have to provide a inventory of my tool bag and have it checked as I come in, and before I leave.
I'm glad it's not my job to keep up with all that stuff.
LOL! Where I work, that is my job :) Navy Tool Crib, we check everything, log it twice and woe be unto the mechanic that loses something 
Millions of $$$ in range time can be blown apart by two words "lost tool"

Mazda's upcoming RS Concept, with adjustable suspension, black wheels and red aero bits!
My driveway! With, umm, adjustable suspension, black wheels and red aero bits. I guess Mazda really liked the car we showed at SEMA.

Tha' berk you say??
Are you showing ANY berking sympathy for that deserting E36M3 bag?!
A convicted berking deserter! You are obviously a non-prior E36M3 bag for not having the basic berking understanding of the consequences of deserting your berking post.
Please make a sincere effort to remedy this cranial-rectal inversion so as you may clearly understand.
1.) In direct violation of Article 85 of the UCMJ, PFC Bergdahl willfully deserted his post, which in itself places his other fellow solders in harm.
2.) In an attempt to locate and rescue PFC Bergdahl, six other solders lost their lives.
3.) Due to a diversion of assets, a COP (Command OutPost) was overrun resulting in the death of eight Americans, 27 wounded in fighting so intense that it resulted in 2 Medals of Honor.
4.) Taliban attacks following PFC Bergdahl's desertion showed a highly effective change of TTP as if being guided by an inside informant.
5.) Without congressional approval, PFC Bergdahl was traded for 5 high value Taliban commanders (this was to be 6, but one pulled a heart attack while on a treadmill at one of our "hellish" detention facilities). It would behoove you to comprehend this dangerous precedent and the simple berking reason why we DO NOT negotiate with terrorists.
6.) Upon PFC Bergdahl's release, his father, Robert Bergdahl, a know pervert/stalker, a known Taliban sympathizer (as tweeted: “I am still working to free all Guantanamo prisoners. God will repay for the death of every Afghan child, amen!”), whom while at a White House presser, speaking in Pashtun, claimed the White House in the name of Islam.
7.) ANYTHING, and I mean ANYTHING, PFC Bergdahl has to say in his cute little "podcasts" fall under TAQIYYA. . . Google is your friend.
Now knowing full well that today's society is somewhat different than the one that stormed Normandy and that "feelings" get hurt because "words" and that there may now be an open plot under the patio, I wish to honor the forum as a whole by not violating thread rules by posting the required hotlink:
