Sister and BIL treated us to supper at Mr Buck's Raw Bar in Fountain last night to celebrate my birthday. A little over two months late. lol

Wednesday is usually half price oyster night, but they raised the price of everything on the menu and no more deals. The place was packed, with a long line outside. Maybe they are trying to talk a few folks into going on down the road.

All I know is that Acetone will make you aware of any small break in your skin. Used it to clean motorcycle parts.
I use to wash machined parts in acetone tanks up to 100 gallons. I've had it splash in my eyes. It just felt cold. Luckily (?) it was my fucked up eye, which I'm mostly blind in, so IDK if it did any damage. I also dipped my arm into the tank when I had poison ivy. It was gone in a couple days. Might have caused a little liver damage, but luckily that bitch regenerates.

Methyl Ethyl Ketone is another fun one.

I was on the crew that had to clean and paint all the ginny's, switchboards and adjacent catwalks in the Saipan's aft engine room. We used a solvent called Tri-something or the other. Shit would make you see stars.
Back around 2000 I was working in a body shop. We were cleaning out an old paint cabinet and the guy I was working with, who regularly huffed, grab this old can and said "hey they banned this stuff, take a whiff" and jammed it under my nose. My whole color pallet shifted, blue turned red, green turned purple, all colors shifted for a few seconds. Then I slugged him in the gut. I kinda wish I kept that shit no one believes me.

This guy regularly passed out from sticking his head in the gun cleaner full of thinner. :dunce:
