Once again we would like to say thank you for everyone’s support, submissions and suggestions over the last year. We are currently working towards getting some of the projects and changes completed for the week of July 15. Some of the changes you will see are updated bio & links pages, and our long overdue articles page. Our first article we will be one we mentioned a number of months ago about power saws. We will discuss: saw selection, blades, maintenance, and check procedures. Shortly after the saw article, we will publish another long overdue article on Building Construction.
On a related note, Jeff is just getting over two months of being without a computer and losing countless hours of work. We have some secret footage of what happened… Check out the video below. For everyone who has emailed him recently, please accept our apologies, it has been difficult to keep up without his machine. He will try to catch up on responding to everyone in the upcoming weeks.
In addition to the above, we are in the process of re-building our belated one year anniversary special video. If anyone has any great song selections for the video, please feel free to submit it. Thank you once again for making this website a success.

We must compliment him on tool selection, it is extremely important to choose the right tool for the right job. I think I actually saw Jeff fill out a training roster on this. Obviously that video is not Jeff, he would have never worn a tie!
Keep up the great work.
That computer might still be salvageable.
Reminds me of Office Space.
A good old fashioned 30″ halligan would have been a nice touch!
Way to go Jeff. Don’t let the computer beat you. Next time break out the K-12.
Gents,
This video is a contrary representation of Jeff’s anger management progress. That depiction of Jeff is thing of the past. Jeff has found a new way to deal with his issues of being perturbed.
From my personal understanding, Jeff has found a creative technique to channel his anger. After an interminably interview with Jeff, I finally got him to disclose his new style of dealing with anger. Therefore, allow me to divulge this story in first person for Jeff’s honor.
(Jeff Speaking)
I was sitting at my desk, when I remembered a phone call I’d forgotten
to make. I found the number and dialed it. A man answered, saying
“Hello.” I politely said, “This is Jeff. Could I please speak with
Mr. Dover?” Suddenly the phone was slammed down on me. I couldn’t
believe that anyone could be so rude. Obviously, I had
transposed the last two digits of his phone number.
I tracked down Mr. Dover’s correct number and called him. After hanging up with him, I
decided to call the ‘wrong’ number again. When the same guy answered
the phone, I yelled “You’re a Jackass” and hung up.
I wrote his number down with the word “Jackass†next to it, and put
it in my desk drawer. Every week when I was paying bills or
having a really bad day, I’d called him up and yell, “You’re a Jackass!” and hang up. It
always seemed to cheer me up.
But, when caller ID came to our area, I thought my therapeutic “Jackassâ€
calling would have to stop. So, I called his number and said, “Hi, this
is John Smith from the telephone company. I’m calling to see if you’re
familiar with our Caller ID Program?” He yelled “NO!” and slammed down
the phone. I quickly called him back and said, “That’s because you’re a
Jackass!”
One day, while I was at the store getting ready to pull into a parking
spot. Some guy in a black BMW cut me off and pulled into the spot I had been
patiently waited for. I hit the horn and yelled that I’d been waiting
for that spot. The idiot ignored me. I noticed a “For Sale” sign in his
car window, so I wrote down his number.
A couple of days later, right after calling the first Jackass ( I had
his number on speed dial), I thought that I’d better
call the BMW Jackass, too.
I said, “Is this the man with the black BMW for sale?”
“Yes, it is.”
“Can you tell me where I can see it?”
“Yes, I live at1802 West 34th Street. It’s a yellow house and the
car is parked right out in front.”
“What’s your name?” I asked.
“My name is Don Hansen,” he said.
“When’s a good time to catch you, Don?”
“I’m home every evening after five.”
“Listen, Don, can I tell you something?”
“Yes?”
“Don, you’re a Jackass.” Then I hung up and added his number to my
speed dial, too. Now, when I had a problem, I had two Jackasses to call.
But after several months of calling them, it wasn’t as enjoyable as
it used to be. So, I came up with an idea. I called Jackass #1.
“Hello.”
“You’re a Jackass!” (But I didn’t hang up.)
“Are you still there?” he asked.
“Yeah,” I said.
“Stop calling me,” he screamed.
“Make me,” I said.
“Who are you?” he asked.
“My name is Don Hansen.”
“Yeah? Where do you live?”
“Jackass, I live at 1802 West 34th Street, a yellow house, with my
black BMW parked in front.”
He said, “I’m coming over right now, Don! And you had better start
saying your prayers.”
I said, “Yeah, like I’m really scared, Jackass.”
Then I called Jackass #2. “Hello?” he said.
“Hello, Jackass,” I said.
He yelled, “If I ever find out who you are…”
“You’ll what?” I said.
“I’ll beat your @#$%,” he exclaimed.
I answered, “Well, Jackass. Here’s your chance. I’m coming over right
now.”
Then I hung up and immediately called the police, saying that I lived
at1802 West 34th Street and that I was on my way over there to kill my
estranged lover.
Then I called Channel 13 News about the gang war going down on West
34th Street. I quickly got into my car and headed over to34th street. There I saw
two Jackasses beating the crap out of each other in front of six squad
cars, a police helicopter and a news crew.
NOW! I feel much better. Anger management really works.
Jeff, who loves you brother…
Be safe!
Darrell

Well everyone…now we know how to force entry on a computer. “Be Safe God Bless”
Why does the monitor always get it first? The CPU is the real culprit. The monitor was just following orders.
