Rudy,

Mr. Rusty Tool here lives in a goddam apartment in  Manhattan.  If you think
he can change a light bulb without calling the super, much less uses Japanese
water stones on the hammer he uses to drive screws,  and the screwdriver he
uses to chip ice outta the freezer, you got another thing coming.

On the other hand, you coulda suckered him into buying Balducci's extra
virgin olive oil and he'd think he was doing the right thing.

Ralph
