And do you have any idea how hard it is to swing a good sized sledgehammer effectively with just one hand?

Default Sledgehammer

Sledgehammers are hard to use. One time, we were having a camp fire and we had some big pieces of wood that we wanted to burn, but no axe to chop it into smaller pieces. For some reason, we did have a sledgehammer, so we used it to break up the wood. The guys kept missing the wood and someone accidentally hit the sledgehammer on the ground and the head broke off.

Better to hit the ground and have the sledgehammer's head fall off than for it to hit a bystander and have his head fall off, I suppose.

Have you ever had bubble tea? If I were to start a business, I would consider opening a bubble tea shop because it seems like those drinks are high-priced in relation to the ingredients, and it must therefore be quite profitable. There's different flavors of bubble tea, each with a different fruit flavor or whatever, and they put these pearls in there and charge $5 or $6 for a cup. I can buy an inexpensive lunch for that kind of price. It's sort of a social thing: you would never go to a bubble tea place alone, but you go because your friends go, and you all end up buying the expensive drinks. They give you a big wide straw for sucking the pearls that are at the bottom of the tea.

From the sounds of it, it's tea you make not with a teabag but with small pearls of tea-and-flavour, which you can suck up through a straw afterwards. Just guessing though, never heard of it either.

GST was supposed to be for the duration of the first gulf war.
