    Smith & Allan

    Smith and Allen are ok. I would be much more concerned if this oil were made by Derek and Clive.

    What's the worst you've hurt yourself working on cars?

    at that age i thought the three best words in the English language had to be "stripper" and "no pants" but sadly the meaning changes dramatically when you insert the terms "aircraft paint" in front of "stripper" ...

    Parenting concerns

    I will say I am surprised at the number of people who felt that this was relatively normal behavior.

    Parenting concerns

    Did they? My parents were amazing. But honestly, on this specific issue, I'm not sure my parents had to say a word. I think SOCIETY taught us that.
