I have one of those "buddies", we call him peanut. He loves peanuts so when he stands up at the back slider door, I'll toss him a peanut. He "catches" them about a third of the time.

The other day I was out of peanuts so I slowly put down a small handful of corn. Well, either he got impatient or I was too slow, because when I drew back my hand it had three deep claw marks on it. Ouch!

Crap! You probably have a Brucella, Camplyobacter, E. coli, Salmonella, or Listeria infection.

I speculated on the REAL reason yesterday (I think) but, nobody pays any attention to me.

My 3 year old granddaughter won't even listen to me -

I figure that the reason is that they don't want people taking out the seats!

They started using those weird type of heads on bolts, when they bolted down the hard drives on computers. They didn't want people taking them off unless they had the proper tools and knew what they were doing.

For example, back-in-the-day, my portable color TV (the kind with a picture tube) was acting up. So, I tore off the back and opened up the box that said "DO NOT OPEN THIS BOX" unless you are a trained technician.

Yep, so I opened it up and started adjusting the color guns with a screwdriver. Man, did I mess up that TV. So I took it down to the local TV repairman and asked him to fix it.

He asked what I had done. I told him. He asked if I had used a plastic screwdriver? I said no. He said "do you want me to throw this TV away, or do you want to take it home and throw it away"?

That ended my TV repair career. -

I went too cheap then. Got a flux core welder so i didn't need to deal with tanks for the beginning stages.

I now know what booger welds are

And that would make sense, but then why are the seat belt bolts not different?

They're ok with seatbelt removal, but not seat removal?
