Working on an 86 RV and hating posi drive. I swear they were designed to strip.

Also no mention of Spider drive that everyone insists is a torx

In my experience, people tend to not want things that don't benefit them directly.

If they don't use the bike lanes they don't want them to take up what could be a car lane they would use.

Dishwater Gnomes

Cover songs of 90s alternative at x2.5 speed and an octave higher.

I subscribed to all sorts of newsletters, and at least one was dinosaur specific. I would also write professors at local colleges with questions and usually get a response.

Also worked at the library and could order just about any book available. At that point most libraries would order books if they didn't have them already.

But mostly newsletters and science journals until BBS became more common and user friendly when we first started having available computers.

I worked for a low income apartment complex that started doing AirBnB. It's already a 2-3 year waiting list to get a rent controlled low income apartment but they were taking units off the market because they could make more money renting them by the night.
