I didn't check for an opening date. Not even sure there would be one on the ad since it was an employment ad and not a grand opening anouncement or anything like that.
Unfortunately the paper is in the recycle now and I am far too lazy to go check.

I second the electric impact gun. Bought mine about 2 years ago and have not looked back. It's done everything I have asked of it, except removing the front hub nut on a very rusty 12A.
FWIW, Bosch sells a line of electric impact guns up to about 1600 FT-LBS or so.

Oh ya, I drove over your sidewalk too. Looks like they'll be needing you to go clean it off now, neener neener neener.

oh man, that would be awesome.. I hope one goes there!
Actually, even a gas station there would be pretty handy
I'm at ROTAN all the time and it's irritating to have to drive INTO windsor to get tims/gas before I leave...
The parking lots are connected... just weird. I'm not sure what's up with that.

Next time I'm under the car fixing something and it's too dark I'll call you for some help with lighting. Nice thing is, you won't have to leave the comfort of your couch, just point it my way and that'll do!

hahahaha, yeah probably
3 million candlepower eh!
how long does the battery last on that thing?
I got a crappy tire 1 million candlepower one last year and I didn't use it much, this fall I went camping and discovered that after charging it in my car for 5 hours the battery didn't even last 5 minutes!
