Not sure, but that definitely wouldn't go over well in this house (although the scent in the living room does overpower the glade plug in due to new tires in the living room )
Do sober what you said what you'd do drunk. That will teach you to keep your mouth shut. - Ernest Hemingway
Shenders threw the cylinder head of his Hyper into the dishwasher and he isn't single.
We don't have a dishwasher, but she mentioned to me that the washing machine was the best way to do NoToil filters.
I don't think this would get much of a comment in my house.

At the risk of hijacking the thread, here's my...
Starter List of Common Household Items and Their Alternative Usages
Partially filled sink => Inner tube leak checker

...dude you ride an offroad bike with slicks, 1/2 the weight of a GS, double the suspension, with a browning 50 cal going off 32" from your skull as a daily freaking driver - I'd expect anything except a nitro dragbike to be bland by comparison - SSG
Yeah, my issue is lack of power washer, parts tub, parts oven, heat gun, etc.
