    Math was my strongest area in school. Lots of folks have a hard time making sense of math.

    lunch and detention were my 2 strongest areas.......all other classes could not compare.

    that's why i became a trucker.....i heard there was a whole lot of detention, where i could eat my lunches.

    I was just poking fun but somewhere along the line it was definitely dumbed down.


    2/32 is actually 1/16th
    4/32 is 1/8th
    16/32 is half inch
    32/32 is 1 inch

    but most people can't read a tape measure

    LOL
