Original Commentary

Brisbane doesn't have much of a toolset, just a few screwdrivers, pliers, wrench. Nothing specialized. He has to borrow a soldering iron and allen wrench when he needs it. A torx screwdriver has a star-shaped head and is used when people don't really want things unscrewed by the wrong folks.

I actually had to get a torx screwdriver a few weeks ago. A power supply died on my computer, so I had to swap it out. After about two hours of trying to force it the torx screws with a phillips-head screwdriver and a large amount of force - it works, sometimes, I unscrewed half of the screws and badly stripped the other half - I broke down and bought one. Cost me about six dollars, worth every penny to have a T-10 handy when I need one - Terrence

Modern Commentary
Kimberly likes Scrabble, but more than that, she likes winning.

And she's better than Brisbane is at Scrabble.- Isabel
