You're a bad influence on me. With that prompting, I just handed this to the wife and asked if she could please pick up some double end bolts when she's driving by HD this afternoon. "Ok" she says and puts it on the corner of the counter to take it with her. I really need to remember to tell her its a joke before she drives off :oops:
