    What the hell were you searching for when you found that??!!!

    Seems to me that the balls come out easy peesy, the fun starts when you need to re-insert them!!!

    As with both the above, It is a brilliant idea but what were the search criteria.
    YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE

    I presume you all know where the "brass monkey's" saying comes from...
    "Blessed be the cracked, for they let in the light."
