Nah, I actually think the St. Croixs worked fine once I adjusted the breakover.

Nah, some people just need a little weirdness in their life. Let him have his fun, it's not hurting anyone.

That 'spray bottle trick' line got me remembering the time I spent three hours trying to chip out a stripped screw in a door hinge before my neighbor mentioned just using a rubber band. I felt like I'd been working with my hands tied behind my back the whole time. Little tricks like that really stick with you, don't they?
