Be careful which end of the X-acto knife you grab, too.
My mom used to say it was a sign of intelligence to learn from your mistakes but it was a double sign to learn from someone else’s. If I had only taken her advice, I would be the smartest man in the world right now.

A wise man was once asked how he got to be so wise.
He responded.. "Good judgement."
When pressed how he mantains good judgement, he replied,"Experience."
When pressd further on how he gathered experience, he answered,"Bad judgement."

And to think once that a Owner of a 3-M Trim line hired myself once to apply panels to a Tractor/Trailer...
He demanded on showing me how this was done.
As he applied the panel (4'x8') dry..With a Heat gun for the rivets and Rivet Brush.........
We were working on a roller stage... He throws the Heat Gun over in the corner were a Old Bus seat was setting and the heatgun was on full. Next came the FIRE!!!!!!!!
After it was put out??????????
I laugh to myself like a Million Dollar Baby!
AS I looked up......His Example was UP SIDED DOWN!

..heat guns also do a real nice job around any open cans of thinner you may have laying around....or screen products...or MEK...
someday, if you're nice to me, I'll show you the first scar I ever got in the business---a burn, between my legs, just above the knees.....stupid-stupid-stupid-stupid.....
as for knife stories, make sure that if you're going to run your OLFA knife thru the wash with your laundry that it's CLOSED tight----otherwise you wind up with a lot of rags afterwards....more stupid-stupid-stupid....
