Good morning Cape Breton.
Maximus Handsomius here from my forever home.
Yesterday I turned 3 years old. That would be 21 in human years.
Yesterday, the Big Guy came home early and he put me out on the deck. Then, he proceeded to remove one tire, at a time and put a different type of tire on the car. He says he removed the snow tires and put on the all season radial tires.
He found that his 2 ton jack, would slowly lower the car while he was working on it. As he was tightening up the lug nuts on tire #3, he heard a snap and the car lowered on it's own. He was surprised by this. Had the car been in the air when the jack would have let go, it wouldn't have been a good day for him.
He was so lucky.
So the Big Guy got out the jack from the car, and finished with the last tire. You can see the 2 ton jack sitting by the back of the car and the vehicle jack, still has the front tire in the air. You can see the winter tire, laying on it's side.
What you can't see in this picture is the 4 way lug nut wrench that the Big Guy was using to tighten up the lug nuts.
Normally, after he is done, he will take the car for a drive and ensure everything is tightened up.
Because the Big Guy was tired and sore, instead of putting the 4 way wrench in the back of the car, he decided it would be easier to put it on the front seat. Well, instead of reaching across and PLACING it on the front seat, he tossed it.
Well, it arched and landed wrong and pierced the front seat.
I can tell you this.
Although the Big Guy didn't swear, he certainly wasn't impressed. Not one bit. Not a happy camper. He figures it's going to be about $200.00 to get that seat fixed. He is going to have to sell some stuff, like a yard sale, to get some money to get that seat fixed. PRONTO. Before it gets MORE damaged.
At least it wasn't me that screwed this up.
Tonya wasn't impressed either, but again, she is also happy that it wasn't her that did this.
From this point going forward, the Big Guy will be paying someone else to swap out his tires.
