They're for working on the MB, not for working people over. The officially made wrenches are

i've got almost $500 in Southwest travel funds that must be used in the next two weeks. i don't have to travel that soon, i just have to book the flights (in my name) before the mid-March expiration date. i'm not sure where to go, what to do...i have no job, which limits things substantially... :sigh:
Could you go on a trip w/ your mom or someone? Tell them you spring for tickets if they pick up the hotel room?

And ooooooh SNAP! My sister asked the family to give her daughter words of advice as she graduates high school and goes on to college. I'm just about down with my "words of advice" for my degenerate, whore-ish niece. It won't be pretty, but it will be honest.

Kayla, it's time for some wise words from your Uncle Ryan. Brace yourself. Dig in deep. Open your mind, and dump everything you've been taught outside of your home for the last 18 years out of your head.
You are going to get out and do while your teachers are going to stay there and teach. They are satisfied to say the same things to kids just like you over and over, year after year. The message may change from time to time, but the delivery is the same. And to pump you up and make you feel like you've accomplished something, they are giving you a diploma. Congratulations! You've just earned the basic minimum level of understanding as the stupidest kid in your class holding that same diploma. The only difference between what you hold and what she holds is that your diploma has your name on it. Your diploma is your ticket to learn. This is where the real learning begins. It is not a license that shows that you have learned – only that you've made it out of a government school alive.
There's something you need to know, and it will take effort on your part to understand it. This is where you really have to focus as you read this. Concentrate solely on the next sentences. Read them aloud and repetitively.
You have been the victim of a terrible fraud. You have just wrapped up what they want you to think is an educational milestone in an educational system that had no real intention of educating you.
The American humorist H.L. Mencken once quipped that:
"That erroneous assumption is to the effect that the aim of public education is to fill the young of the species with knowledge and awaken their intelligence, and so make them fit to discharge the duties of citizenship in an enlightened and independent manner. Nothing could be further from the truth. The aim of public education is not to spread enlightenment at all; it is simply to reduce as many individuals as possible to the same safe level, to breed and train a standardized citizenry, to put down dissent and originality."
So ask yourself a few questions. Who owns the schools? Who staffs the schools? Who issues the edicts of society? Who collects funds for the schools? The government. That's the answer to each of those questions. Can you see where it's in their best interest to indoctrinate you and to keep you from questioning or rebelling against them? Instead, they teach you to be a "free thinker" by listening only to them. Anyone who tells you differently is wrong. Anyone who questions what they're told is close-minded. You need to feel. You need compassion. To hell with your parents! They don't know because they are living under an archaic notion that the family is the best teacher and the best institution for the individual, whereas we, the government, have formed the more perfect system where you are free to be who you want to be: a free spirit who knows what's best for you so much better than your parents. They don't want you to be you.
Let me inform you of something you may not have picked up on yet. You have been trained to react at the sound of a bell and to follow the orders that millions just like you have followed before. 5 days a week for 8 hours a day the bell rings and you react. If you're a good student, for the remainder of the day you prepared to go back and do it again. But we both know you did just enough to get by. You're too much like me, and too much like your mother. You spent the remainder of the day searching for love in the arms of whichever person could give you that high of feeling like you were wanted. And now you're off to college where there will be an entire campus of people to make you feel that way.
But you will never find the fulfillment you're looking for because all you know is how to feel. You haven't spent one hour in the last 12 years of schooling learning how to think. You have been taught to associate yourself with another group or another cause in order to be part of it. But we weren't made that way: we weren't made to be a part of an equal to make another equal. There is no such thing! You are not a member of a group. You are not your friends, or how you feel, or the organizations you support. You are an individual who must think, and what you think and how you think will dictate who you are. Thinking begets action, not institutionalization that reacts to the sound of a bell. Use wisely your power of choice. The key to accepting responsibility in your life is to accept the fact that your choices -- every one of them -- are leading you to either success or failure. Each choice is either a building block or a stumbling block leading you to where you will finish your life.
I'm not going to offer you any advice of what career to choose or where to go. I just want you to know that I've made all of the same mistakes you have and all of the ones you are going to make over the next 4 years (or 7 in my case). Your mom has, too. She and I are very much alike. The sooner you learn to think and cast off this notion of feeling, the sooner your life will begin to make sense. You will learn that your parents love you. Your family loves you.
Love,
Uncle Ryan

Need some window switches and other miscellaneous bits and pieces too. Possibly another fuel sender, since mine is no longer providing any reading since I pulled it out and cleaned it

Oh, I need to hope there's a good seat bottom too, the springs on my driver's seat are borked. There are things I can to do fix them, but I'd rather just put a good one in
Bloody brilliant man!
