Never mind the hammer!� What's worse is a game of paintball at 45 below! Pain-bal!
But why am I mentioning such an off topic subject as paintball?
�
GOTCHA! For me, tonight, it IS Vanasgon related because just about 30 minutes ago on my way home, I heard a loud thump that sounded like someone threw a rock at the passenger side of my Westfalia. 
It's a dark stretch of road , a foggy night here in Des Moines, Washington. 
�
A few blocks away I stopped, and a big blob of orange paint on the passenger door. 
This is on a busy two-lane road that follows a creek, it's wooded, there are balconies of apartments facing it.�
�. A least it's something to talk about. 
Always something.

> Joel, I never needed this stuff in Alaska- just a swift whack with a hammer
shatter's em right off at 45 below.
The trouble is getting the hammer unstuck from your hand at 45 below!
My favorite is Tri-Flo .

yeah, but what happened to the hammer!?? ;)
we always heard horror stories about Craftsman tools shattering if dropped on
the concrete when working on army trucks out in the cold. :(
