WD40 and its many uses

06 September 2010

Before you read to the end, does anybody know what the main ingredient of WD-40? Don't lie and don't cheat.

Who knew; I had a neighbor who bought a new pickup. I got up very early one Sunday morning and saw that someone had spray painted red all around the sides of this beige truck (for some unknown reason). I went over, woke him up, and told him the bad news. He was very upset and was trying to figure out what to do....probably nothing until Monday morning, since nothing was open. Another neighbor came out and told him to get his WD-40 and clean it off. It removed the unwanted paint beautifully and did not harm his paint job that was on the truck.

26 July 2009

Simpson Deset 2009John and Ronda decided to defer their trip to the Hay River and instead headed off with the Blacks and the Pools to cross the Simpson Desert and explore the East MacDonnell Ranges. The first day was a biggy making it from the Mount Gambier all the way to Leigh Creek where we rewarded ourselves with a bed in a motel.
