    WD-40 Survival Guide

    When your thinking survival, forget the iPhone or iPad. I love apple and though it dominates the information age, my iPad now has a cracked screen. I DROPPED IT. There are tons of busted iPhones on eBay as well. Look at a used or refurbished Panasonic Toughbook. Heck if your attacked by a bear, hopefully the critter will bite the F11 key and trigger your Survival EPIRB.
    This is no joke, slide in the network card with your AT&T sim and you have a unbreakable cell phone, communication device. We built one that floats, and still works, the battery never dies or looses memory NEVER. Hose off the key board of dirt dust and swiss miss mix. Best of all get the TOPO North America GPS and the bread crumb trail so you do not fall into some mine shaft. We sell em and they are called Bluck Hawk Toughbooks built in the USA only. Just read about them and think about a communication tool that doubles as a Grizzly Frisby.

    ......................

    WD40 also works great as starting fluid for small engines. 2 and 4 cycle.

    *Deep, deeeeeeep sight*
    Good Lord, nobody can fall for that piece of marketing? Although I think it's an insult to marketing to call it that. One little google search and you'll know it's not made in the USA. And I thought people making pictures with an iPad looked silly, but imagine holding a TB to your ear!!??
    I never understood his attitude towards nbr/tbt/fellow tb fans but how can he be making money of of this?
    IMHO he has reached a new all time low.
