I didn't realize that was Michael in the front seat, I thought it was a tool rep or distributor. Man what a difference without the beard. Mrs. Lesley always looks nice, she is so sweet. Good video Clay!!!!!

[@LynxStarAuto]

I feel like those beards teeter on the edge of unprofessional. Unpopular opinion I know, but I personally keep mine trimmed.

Oh man! My momma told me the same thing about the iron, and I had to push it. I didn’t make it to the iron, but I knocked it over and that hot water left streaks of blisters across my hand, hahaha.. thanks for helping me remember something that was a funny moment with my mom.. Since she passed in the pandemic I’m always looking for memories to laugh at, and keep her light alive in my heart.

44:55 two things to add to objects you got a whoopin with as a child. 1. A baccer stalk. If you’ve never been whooped with a baccer stalk, thank the good Lord lol. 2. Your daddy handing you his pocket knife to go cut him a switch for him to whoop you with. Lord forbid you brought back a dead, brittle limb because then you got a whoopin with it until it broke, then he went and cut a young limber limb and whooped you with it too. I look back on these memories and am grateful my parents busted my rear end and taught me right from wrong.

Can I put another comment? This was a great video! Life lessons tight there! Thanks

[@randysmith9636]

Lol, in a time long ago, before your lawn mower had the safety bar that shuts down the engine. I was at a Toro dealer buying a push mower and the safety bar was just being used. He claimed that Toro was the one who first started installing it on their mower because of a lawsuit. A customer bought a push mower and attempted to pick it up by the deck while running to trim his hedges. Of course he lost fingers on both hands. Even though warning labels were on the deck it didn't matter, he was NEVER told NOT to do it from the dealer. Toro lost the suit and designed the safety/shut off bar. Also, if so inclined, research the coffee lawsuit against Mc Ds. She won because of the seriousness of her burns. It was discovered that McDonald's was intentional over heating their coffee to the point it was dangerous. Yes she should not have it between her legs when driving but the burns she received should not have been that severe.

[@daddydiesel5889]

I was going to say the same thing about the McDonald’s lawsuit 👍🏻, and I’m in my 30’s, 6ft 230lbs, and the look still scares the s*** out of me!

[@MisterMeanerOU812]

It’s cool to see the McD’s lawsuit accurately represented. Usually people try to use it arguing “in favor” or tort reform, while being oblivious to the facts of the incident.

[@rodhagen9393]

The exhaust shop that I used to work in had special designed hoists that had rollers that the non drive wheels rolled in as you drove the vehicle in. I was talking to a customer and his son was playing around on one that had no car on it. Dad kept telling the kid to stop, kid wasn't listening to him. I looked at the kid and said to him " If you fall down and get hurt all we are going to do is point and laugh". The kid stopped screwing around.

“Everyone got their favorite pliers for brake spring” lol check out the good old Chanel Lock 748. It’s not a spring plier but sure works good on springs and Matco sells em

[@chichorello9766]

That notch on the hammer is to stick on the lip of the rim when you mount on the tire so the tire won’t go over the lip when it’s just person working on a small tire

I just use two tire irons ?

[@dodgesportsman772]

I love Matco tools but it's hard to do business with them when everything is three month back order. That being said MAC tools is on top of the game, in my area, I might be forced to change teams if Matco can't get tools out to the distributor

To be fair, the McDonald’s coffee lady was not the first one seriously burned with McDonald’s coffee because they brewed their coffee at an excessively hot temperature. They had been warned multiple times that they needed to brew at a lower temperature and the judge slapped the big fine on them to teach them a lesson.

[@jondoe8241]

My wife and I are the same way, we got sort of an allowance. Each of us gets like 300 bucks a month to spend freely...That doesnt include like date night stuff.

[@dangemmer]

You should be more informed about the McDonalds hot coffee case. Stella Liebeck was a 79-year-old woman in Albuquerque, New Mexico, whose grandson drove her to McDonald’s in 1992. She was in a parked car when the coffee spilled. Liebeck acknowledged that the spill was her fault. What she took issue with was that the coffee was so ridiculously hot - at up to 190 degrees Fahrenheit, near boiling point - that it caused third-degree burns on her legs and genitals, nearly killing her and requiring extensive surgery to treat. McDonald’s apparently knew that this was unsafe. In the decade before Liebeck’s spill, McDonald’s had received 700 reports of people burning themselves. McDonald’s admitted that its coffee was a hazard at such high temperatures. But it continued the practice, enforced by official McDonald’s policy, of heating up its coffee to near-boiling point. (McDonald’s claimed customers wanted the coffee this hot.) Liebeck didn’t want to go to court. She just wanted McDonald’s to pay her medical expenses, estimated at $20,000. McDonald’s only offered $800, leading her to file a lawsuit in 1994. After hearing the evidence, the jury concluded that McDonald’s handling of its coffee was so irresponsible that Liebeck should get much more than $20,000, suggesting she get nearly $2.9 million to send the company a message. Liebeck settled for less than $600,000. And McDonald’s began changing how it heats up its coffee.

[@devongomes3411]

Here is the backstory of McDonald's coffee. In 1992 Mrs. Liebeck was in the passenger seat of a stationary vehicle. She put the coffee between her legs in order to put cream and sugar into it. It was hot enough to burn through her sweatpants and then give her 3rd degree burns. Previously McDonald's had received 700 complaints about how hot the coffee was. She recived skin grafts on her inner thigh and "somewhere else".... she asked McDonald's too settle and pay her medical expenses of 20,000 but was declined and only was offered $800. The jury found Mrs. Liebeck to be partially at fault for her injuries, reducing the compensation for her injuries accordingly. But the jury’s desicion award made headlines upset by McDonald’s unwillingness to correct a policy despite hundreds of people suffering injuries, they awarded Liebeck the equivalent of two days’ worth of revenue from coffee sales for the restaurant chain. That wasn’t, however, the end of it. The original damage award was ultimately reduced by more than 80 percent by the judge. And, to avoid what likely would have been years of appeals, Mrs. Liebeck and McDonald’s later reached a confidential settlement.

[@Re_DEEMD]

I totally understand and agree what you’re saying ab sue happy ppl but you should look into the lady that got burned with McDonald’s coffee. The machine was malfunctioning and the coffee was way too hot like nearly boiling hot and she needed a bunch of skin graphs and I think it nearly killed her bc of infection. That lady wasn’t in the wrong on that one. I used that as an example of sue happy ppl and the guy I was talking to showed me why all that was a totally legitimate reason to sue and win.

[@unclebob4208]

The McDonalds coffee lady was paraplegic and got 3rd degree burns to her lady parts. Taste inhibitors are for coolant spills or vehicle collisions to keep animals from drinking it.

Hello again Clay Thank you for another Great Video. I think it was part of the late Paul Harvey, story. Now for the rest of the story segment. The lady in question, did it twice. And then she had both case's before the same Judge. If I remember correctly, she lost both case's. Sorry, I don't remember the year only that I remember his radio broadcast. Again thank you

Oh the lady that sued Mcd’s got millions of dollars out of it

[@MisterMeanerOU812]

@@KoonTrucking she sure did, and deserved every penny. There are a lot of cases in courts that represent frivolous claims, and ambulance chasing, but the McD’s coffee lawsuit isn’t one of them. This lady received 3rd degree burns from coffee on her thighs. Plus she was pretty old when this happened. Can’t imagine how painful, or how HOT that coffee had to be to cause 3rd degree burns.
