My neighbor: "Oh you broke your shovel? You should use one with a fiberglass handle; it won't break on you."
Me: "I like wood handles, I was just using it wrong."
My neighbor: "Here, you can borrow mine."
Me: "I'll just go buy another handle, it's no big deal."
My neighbor: "No it's fine. You won't hurt the shovel."
Me buying my neighbor a new shovel: "Here you go, your shovel is about to break."
My neighbor: "I'm sure it's fine."

I could use a new shovel, Stu.
Want to borrow my old, worn out one so you can break it and buy me a new one?
I have a ton of various shovels in my attic with broken handles in case your feeling froggy one day and want to replace the handles. You can have them for free. Also, I think I'm done digging for a while. I was digging up my sprinkler in my backyard so I can route it to my garden instead.

I already punched plenty of holes in the line I was following with the shovel.
On another note, this year's garden is going to be AWESOME!!!!! (or a total failure). I'm also thinking about chickens again. And solar for the chickens. And solar for both of my vehicles (one to charge the battery on the one I don't drive, and the other to charge all my electronics on the one I do drive). And the decorative well to hide the pipes on my sprinkler system in my front yard. See? This is what happens when I spend time outside for the first time in 5 months.
I did temporarily pick up a drill press from 1981. I had some pictures but I must have deleted them. A little rust here and there, and the whole top where the belts runs was full of a mouse nest, but the light turns on and the motor works. Drill press isn't staying with me though.Quote:
