So, as you know, since nice little mormons boys stray away from the "typical" bachelor party before they get married they have a substitute. It's called a "man shower." Typically, or at least in my case, this consisted of a get together with my male compadres, dinner, and the exchanging of gifts. But not just any gits, no no no. We get TOOLS!!! I can honestly say that I have used every single tool I was given at that event.....all except for one..... THE WRENCH OF DEATH. A few of my friends pooled their funds together(you know who you are) went to harbor freight tools and purchased pretty much the largest wrench they could afford. Honestly and truly it was the largest wrench I have ever seen in my life! I'm pretty sure if I were to ever use it as a weapon, I would easily kill my opposition with a single swing. However... sadly I said to myself when I recieved this wrench "when the crap am I going to use this thing?" But don't fret, I kept it because on the other side of my brain I realized, you know?...one day you are going to have a task that I'm going to say "Hey I have a perfect tool for that!!." And guess what? A little over two years later.. that day arrived! This last Monday was demo day on the guest bathroom in our house. I got it all done except for two tasks that I just couldn't complete! 1. The stupid old spigot on the tub wouldn't come off. 2. The line supplying the toilet with water was just not going to leave without a fight! So in my last attempt to get my jobs done I grabbed my mega wrench and with the ease of the butterfly fluttering in the breeze the two tasks were DONE! I was very impressed and very thankful that I had such a tool. So thank you all who participated in getting me this great gift.
