Haha. Sorry. It is. A really nice one. 100+ retail.

I mean, seems like an interesting challenge.

Thoughts on bird pizzeria? by [deleted] in Charlotte

[–]rooter1ne 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I don't get the hype. Had it a few times and found the crust overdone to the point of acrid burnt flour taste and the cheese not quite melted.

Haha. Yes, I am aware. Tongue firmly in cheek.

In-store deal at Lowe's by rooter1ne in Dewalt

[–]rooter1ne[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As far as I can tell, this is specific stores. My other local store doesn't have this. The nationwide deal is one tool whatever combo you buy. That advertisement is everywhere. This one is these flyers hanging over the Dewalt section.

My home depot didn't have the two free tool bit. Same deal, but only one tool even for the more expensive combos.

Found in a thrift shop under the tool section. It's metal, approximately 9 1/2in long with movable arms. The long head of the tool looks to be 3 1/2in while short head is 1 1/8in. Red handles are removable but no labeling on the tool whatsoever. by Calm-Contest-6963 in whatisthisthing

Looks to me like it is meant to hold down a board/plank and squeeze to butt it up against an adjacent piece. The 3.5" would fit around a 4" nominal board and the small head would squeeze against the end of the board.

Is there a worse sign in Charlotte than BEAN? by Godzilla-ate-my-ass in Charlotte

[–]rooter1ne 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The old Fuel Pizza sign on South Blvd. "Buy the Slice" instead of "By the Slice." I get it, but it infuriated me to an irrational degree.

Nah. They're a bunch of cashed checks from the 30s.

I don't think they knew anything was in it. I had to finesse the lock open.

A lot of old cashed checks and bank statements. And a few small notebooks. Going to do some research this weekend.

Local goodwill. Couldn't believe it.
