I bought those 60 paint brushes from heartland america -- I see now that they will be in stock ... guess when???

January 30, 2005?

NO

February 20, 2005?

NO

March 2005

They were also kind enough to promptly charge me though. At least they sent out the lockpicking tool -- I want to see if that works.

I bought three of them ... I was kind of locked out of my place one night after walking my dogs ... :mad ... rather than store the keys somewhere underneath a car ... i'll keep the lockpicking set there ... if it works :stickoutt

Are those legal? I was under the impression only locksmiths could have lockpicks. Oh, and my buddy's Dad is a locksmith. We tried to pick a lock once with his picks...we failed. That sh!t is hard. :)

If you want to know how to lockpick, I can teach you. Once you practice for a few hours, you'll be able to open any of the cheap brands of locks (kwikset, etc.) in under 30 seconds. It's a great trick.

Hmmm, apparently us owners in the MD/DC/VA region are a little more crafty than we give each other credit for....:shifty

I can give lockpicking instruction as well. It does come in handy, especially when you need to turn off your neighbor's water because of a broken pipe leaking water into your place.

It's illegal to purchase them unless you're a locksmith or an apprentice (or used to be), but it's easy to make your own.

60 paintbrushes for $14.95 -- heck of a good deal. This way, I can do as these guys have suggested -- chuck the brush after I am done. One good paint brush costs like $8.95 by itself.

crafty or sketchy? hmm...

My only experience with locksmithing is when I locked my keys in my camry with the engine on. Local cop tried for 15 minutes in the freezing cold to use the slim jim with no luck. Locksmith looked at the car for 10 seconds, got a tool and had the back door open in about 3 seconds. Quite an amazing sight.

That is a good deal. Let me know when they are back in stock... I just might have to get some. :)

I'm in no rush... I paint a couple apt's every year. I usually just get the disposible ones from Home depot. :D

My friend's Dad used to get ripped off by people, he would unlock their doors and they would hop in the car and drive off without paying him. He started unlocking the doors and standing in between them and their car, if they didnt pay, *SLAM* goes the door! :D
