Buying a router from Best Buy and returning it the day after the party. Memories.

I worked with a guy who wore a headlamp nearly all the time. When people would ask about it he would always tell them "There are only two reasons NOT to wear a headlamp. Either you don't have a head, or you don't have a headlamp."

I will never forget this.

It's an interesting hypothesis run amok because a core group of biologists WANTED it to be true so badly.

There's a GREAT episode (ep. 425) from the In Defense of Plants podcast that covers the misinformation and misunderstanding perfectly.

I've been a huge fan of this Hultafors Dry Marker for carpentry and woodworking. Having that sheath with a built-in sharpener is excellent too.

Ok. I bought one of these three weeks ago based on this post.

Holy shit.

I've been a Leatherman or knife carrier most of my life. But I have reached for my new Fastback more than most multitools I've ever owned.

In these past weeks I have:

• Taken a fence apart to back a truck into the yard of a friend who was moving.
• Opened several boxes that I wouldn't have needlessly dulled my knife blade on.
• Removed the blade to scrape residue off of a window more than once.
• Used the flathead to pry whatever small retaining clip needed persuasion.
• Cut the end of of zip ties totally flush.

I know not everyone will have this experience. But the disposable blade coupled with a 1/4" bit was an absolute game changer for me.
