    Polishing a turd takes time

    Perfectionism is an affliction

    If in doubt, give it a clout

    Assumption is the mother of a fuckup

    They're still making... (whatever you need to fix your fuckup)

    We can fix it if it takes every penny you got.

    Don't force it...get a bigger hammer.

    If you can't make it fast, you can at least make it loud.

    Tighten it up 'till it breaks off, then back it off 1/4 turn.

    Any color looks good...with a couple coats of black over it.
     
  8. It looks good from my house.

    It's like a five-dollar whore, she ain't pretty, but she gets the job done.

    Looks good..... at 30 feet and 30 mph.

    Anything worth doing is worth overdoing.

    Hard work pays off in the end, but laziness pays off right now.

    My Metalshop Teacher ingrained the 6 P's into us and I try to use it every day with everything I set out to do. THis is how he said it: "Precision Planning Prevents Piss-Poor Performance" Words to live by.

    On a lazier less efficient note, "Turn the stereo up 'til you can't hear the knock anymore."
    "Go faster and that front end wobble smooths right out."
