    First off I love your energy and enthusiasm. I have watched and listened to you Mr. David for years. After I was Honorably Discharged from the Army. I worked as a mechanic in 1993-94 I bought from a Cornwell Truck a light blue handled No.2 Phillips screwdriver.

    To this day that screwdriver ๐Ÿช› is one of the most prized tools in all the tools that I own. I pray that nothing ever happens to that screwdriver lol id be deviated. Thank you for ALL THAT YOU DO SIR.
