Phrase-regurgitation or cut-and-paste from online dictionaries is not really in the spirit of the "one sentence" game, is it?

Adult whiny babies.

Sow too much baloney and reap the whirlwind.

Jeep races on the beach during the daytime were never as entertaining as watching the submarine races from the beach at night.

Got my "staging tent" reskinned with new tarps just before the rain came. All it is is one of those cheapo "portable garages" that a freindamine gave me after his neighborhood Karen reported him to the zoning people. It lasted for several years in my back yard, and I've been storing not-too-valuable tools and parts in it prior to moving. Last windy rain storm, a limb came down, punched a hole in the top of it, and I didn't notice until last week. A few things got soaked and ruined, but nothing irreplaceable. Anyway, now it's watertight again.

That's IMC, who made some really cool kits of interesting, highly-detailed cars and trucks with lotsa opening features, widely bashed as "too fiddly" and "unbuildable", and aircraft. Many have been re-released over the years under other labels, including Lindberg, Testors, and Union. While they were indeed challenging, in the hands of skilled modelers, they could turn out stellar models.

The ONLY models you can have to work with were previously put together by 5-year-olds who used an entire tube of gloo to hold on every single part...kinda like a lot of what I used to buy on FeePay, listed as "adult built".

Writing 1984, the author thought he was creating fiction, not a handbook of instructions on how to do things.

Last new fridge I bought quit after two years, just out of warranty. Opened it up, pathetic tiny components inside, sized for a small office fridge. Lotsa insulation was its only advantage over an old one with big fat clunky last-forever guts. Cheaper to buy another one than pay someone to fix it, and I didn't want to take it to the car shop to evac/recharge or bring the equipment home, then probably have it die again after another 2 years. Bought an older creampuff used, and it's still running fine 12 years later. A friend of mine has a fridge from the late '40s, still running on its original freon.

Fences in good condition make good neighbors, so it's said.
