This is garage logic podcast number 43 veterans day November 12, 2018.

It was four degrees below zero in this day in 1966.

And back in 2001, it was 65 degrees.

This podcast brought to you by Frattaloni's Ace Hardware store about which I will have something

to say in a moment. And now from the mayor's office,

above the boat house on the east shore of Spoon Lake, it's garage logic.

With rookie young production, Chris Reaver's director of social media,

John Hyde in the newsroom, and occasionally Kenny from the Krabby Coffee Shop.

Here is your flashlight king, fireworks commissioner, and keeper of common sense.

Your mayor, Joe Sushare.

Got an interesting email from a guy who who quite cleverly noted,

why when you go into a hardware store at this time of year, not Frattaloni's,

they're veterans, they've got this covered. You can't find a shovel.

And the guy wanted to know, what do people do throw their shovel away when spring arrives?

Great question. I got the same shovel for the last five years.

Yes, in fact, I do have to buy a shovel because we did break one last year,

and I hadn't replaced it yet. What are you doing with your shovels?

Yes.

On this veterans day.

And ever thought about that.

Banks are closed. Parking meters are available.

Can you buy stamps today?
