I might be slow, but I eventually figure out what everybody else already knew: the paint can opener that I get free with every can of Behr paint at Home depot doubles as a bottle opener. Oof. What else have I been missing?
here's another one. LOL
My cousin showed me that when I was newly 21 and frantically looking for a bottle opener for my beer. I do it all the time now, if of course I don’t have my keychain bottle opener. People tend to be amazed at simple mechanics. Good party trickAbout 10 years ago I was at home watching PBS Saturday morning cooking shows, specifically Jacques Pepin Fast Food My Way.
He opened up a crown cap bottle with a spoon, simple lever. Kinda blew my mind, so I immediately started trying it out.
Ever since then I've found I can open any crown cap with flatware, wrenches, screwdrivers and especially BIC lighters!
Lmao! Who would ever think Home Depot would cater so well to beerAdd to the can opener the beer items available. Even homebrewing.

We should all email HD as HD promotes themselves as DIY. Well, we're surly DIY and whom knows, if HD gets enough requests...
There's a place of sight and sound, somewhere over the horizon, neither night or day, but with full bags of malt. The next stop HD.
Imagine, if you will…Solid Rod Serling. Nice.
There's a sign post ahead... next stop... HDImagine, if you will…

Man, you're old. AH Presents. I also remember the radio shows (EG Marshall, et al.). My ADHD doesn't allow me to watch a lot of TV, but I've seen enough.If you’re of a certain age you might remember a program which began with a bald, rotund, gentleman solemnly intoning “Goood eve-a-ning…”

Unsure about mixing use of a nail gun with beer...
Next up. Ladders with beer warning stickers on the ladder.
check, check, check, check plus chef's knife which is my favorite way and most dangerous-ish.flatware, wrenches, screwdrivers and especially BIC lighters!
HD is now also selling large conical fermenters. I didn't know. I'm not sure how beer fermenters fit with HD but they've been selling turkey fryers and that became usual.Home depot

My desk edge in my college dormroom eventually didn't have a sharp enough corner to catch the bottle caps.Bottom line, any 90° corner will suffice - even if it leaves a gouge
I always get strange looks when I tell people that we should take the warning labels off everything and just let natural selection and survival of the fittest run its course.
i never take warning labels lightly, even though sometimes they can be funny....i had a can of sodium metal, i want'd to get rid of it, and right when i was about to flush it down the toilet....noticed, and stoped to read, the warning never mix with water....damn that would have been nasty!
You can open paint with those? Who knew?I might be slow, but I eventually figure out what everybody else already knew: the paint can opener that I get free with every can of Behr paint at Home depot doubles as a bottle opener. Oof. What else have I been missing?

what in the world brought you to buy a can of sodium metal? and I assume it was packed under a layer of some kind of light oil so that it wouldn't spontaneously combust from the moisture in the air when you opened the can.i never take warning labels lightly, even though sometimes they can be funny....i had a can of sodium metal, i want'd to get rid of it, and right when i was about to flush it down the toilet....noticed, and stoped to read, the warning never mix with water....damn that would have been nasty!
Now THAT brings up memories - I was in sales and travelled the 13 Western states - did that all the time! Make sure to wrap a hotel hand towel around the bottle, sometimes you can lose a little beer because of the angle!Need a bottle opener in a hotel room? The latch strike plate on the bathroom door frame usually works
From what I understand Rod really didn't want to do Night Gallery. He didn't write any of the shows. Apparently he was paid enough to introduce the show, but that's it.Don't make me do it! Haha, I'm a massive fan, and I can quote verbatim a lot of the opening monologue of Rod's. I used to get the Twilight Zone Magazine, it had scripts, and my brother and I used to enact each one when we got the mag. Haha.
(have you guys checked out Black Mirror on Netflix? No Rod, but wow some awesome episodes, and every bit as good as Twilight Zone or Night Gallery).
