Losing* loose* tools
Every time I have a job to do on the dock or the boathouse I drop a tool in the water.
Gone forever.
I think I've solved the problem.
Yesterday, while picking up some bolts & stuff, I bought a 79 cent screwdriver. Before I started on the task, I hurled the screwdriver as far out in the bay as I could. An appeasement to Neptune.

Finished the job and made it back to dry land without losing* a single tool.
I think I'm on to something here.
;-)

*grammarians please note

1. A+! Excellent use of "Lose" and "Loose"!
Any nice job with the Tool Gods.


Next assignments:
1 - Could HAVE vs. Could OF or Would HAVE vs. Would OF

2 - Your vs. You're

3 - Are vs. Our

4 - bush* vs. Shit - Nevermind, nothing to contrast here
