I'm not really sure how I feel about that.
Seriously, how often in life does the perfect opportunity present itself to make the reference you noticed to people like Andy, Dave, yourself, and the others I mentioned - but in a veiled way in which you don't "actually" say it? Almost never - it was like a "perfect storm", couldn't pass it up.

In most cases, Raul is 99% right - as he was in your case.
(like I'm gonna give Raul 100% after he trumped me for the "word of the day", which I did have to look up..... almost.....curses)

Oh young FIRST Jedi, always so tough on yourself.

Actually Ken, if we're gonna stick with the "tool box" analogies - I think most would compare you more to either a battery (which provides the energy to make things happen) or the glue (which helps to keep things together). But I do like your duct tape reference - while it didn't seem to fit you, a few people came to mind when I read it.
