Darn. I checked right away, but here (northern CA), we got "screwdrivers" followed by "blowtorches".

Sounds about how my repair jobs go. :-)
Was "medical attention" next? ;^)
Nah, I know which end of the blowtorch is the hot end. :-) [as do the uncooperating recipients of those repair jobs (won't come loose with the screw driver, eh? Try this: Phooomp!)]
Almost makes a guy want to put out the bucks for cable.

No, it was "morphine" followed by "scalpels"
Come to think of it, I'd watch a show on how scalpels are made. Call History Channel.
This was an interesting look at hand planes including a segment on the inner workings of the Lie-Nielsen plane factory. Showed some interesting CNC metal laths and mills used in the production of their planes. One of the few products still produced in the USA.
Check your local listings for re-runs on or about Sept. 23rd.

The entire series will be on starting at 8 a.m. Sept. 23, edt.

That's why I bought an impact screwdriver (manual) very early on. It was great for motorcycle screws which had been installed with Loctite.
I record most shows now since it makes much more sense speeding through the commercials (30% of the program time) of which I'm SO sick and tired. Try it with a football game sometime. You can watch the whole game in just over ONE hour, including all the instant replays! What a joy! ;)
