I have two Harris Tweed jackets that have holes ( multiple) in them from flying embers from my pipes. They kind of blend in with the colors and pattern of these jackets. Oh well, I still wear the jackets and still smoke a pipe while wearing them !

Did you prime with dark grey first The home owners attempted to do it themselves before they called me. They primed it with white and then put 2 coats of cheap Walmart paint over it. You could hardly see the red. They wanted a labor only price so that's what I gave them. I told them I wouldnt so it with walmart paint, so they went and got Valspar, still not my favorite. It took 2 1/4 gallons to do 1 small kitchen. Had it been my job, start to finish it would have went a lot different. The prep work would have been better and grey primer would have been used.

I have a love hate history going with Zippo lighters. I love them, the classic sound, the performance in a breeze. But when I first started I used to try and look cool and snap it open and closed with one hand. I dropped many a lit lighter.

All my uniform shirts end up with burn holes since I open the windows, or the A/C is blowing.... the shirts are the opposite of fire retardant.
