Every state has a state flower, state bird, etc. Why not a state tool? | |

Halfbakers, take it away!

This is totally baked, practically every state of the union has a long list of goofy official state this-or-thats. I posted links to the ones for Massachusetts and Georgia. Plus an apparently tongue-in-cheek one for New Mexico. |

From the title I thought this was a way for programmers to deal with interruptions in their work. |

"If you can't fix it with duct tape, a screwdriver, and a crescent wrench, you can't fix it." |

Half a housebrick, and a screwdriver, unless its something to do with computers, then its just the housebrick.... |
