Never Go Trucking Without Your Stanley

I was out working driving a 80,000 pound truck one winter morning when my brake line froze up and I had to find a way to stop the truck from rolling away while I got under it to thaw the lines. The only thing I had to chuck the wheels with was my classic stanley thermos. I placed it under the front wheel of the truck and it stopped the truck from moving, I thawed the lines and the only
thing that happened to the thermos is a dent on one side, everything else is in tact and I am still using it today which is ten years later. I plan on buying another however not until this one finaly gives out. By the way my coffee was still nice and hot when I finished the work on the brake lines.
