And we're off.
Today I vowed to pop the lid. Santa dropped this off -
So I wrenched at it for a while -
Then put it back in the vice in the garage and twisted the blade for a good 30 minutes... but a Brian is pretty impatient so I decided to take one more turn with the wrench expecting it still wouldn't budge...
Thank goodness I had that pipe right-side up cause low and behold it popped loose with a pink glittery cloud...
Yeah, you heard me right...
That's glitter. Lots of it. And better yet the epoxy and glitter combined into a false lid... complete with grooves... it was strange... you can see it in the picture here- along with the groove I was cutting
So I dumped the glitter in the snow and broke off the glitter/epoxy madness and got this -
And a few thousand rolls of duct tape later I finally found a taped baggie!
So there you have it!
I'd happily post the cigars but for that I'd need to know who did it!
Whoever you are you mayo bastid, thank you for the kindness and the fun story! I'll keep my pipe cutter handy in case another stanky fish arrives someday and it's welded shut (looking at you Paul)
Hope you enjoyed my tale of woe!
