I'll think of a cheesy title later...

Image result for bottle jack imagesNope, not the most exciting of subjects, but Bottle Jacks always make me smile ! Why ? Because they remind me of growing up on my Father's farm as a child. He had one one, and yes, its still present and working correctly 30 years later. Its the oldest item still on the farm and is in my eyes an heir loom of sorts. Even better though is the fact that these intensely strong simple jacks are still being sold today. I find myself wanting to buy a new one now, just so I can look at it in my shed. Im getting sentimental again ...

My simple enthusiasm for mundane items is often mistaken as sarcasm.

Cometh the man, cometh the hour...

Just what are the defining rights of passage into manhood ?

 For some its sleeping with  a beautiful woman.

 For others its finally getting married.

For many I guess its becoming a Father.

 What do I think ? Well the above are all worthy, but I think your first battle with the Governments Tax Authorities marks the true start !!! LOL
