0:00 some folks don't understand what it means to be a rugged Man it ain't just
0:05 about drinking scalded and hot coffee in the morning and wearing nothing but your
0:10 chest hair with pride no being a rugged
0:14 Man is about respect respect for the
0:17 truck he drives the animals he kills and
0:20 the place he does his daily work be it on the jobsite or behind a desk in his
0:27 office and so it was with determination
0:30 in my mind that I went about setting right the shocking wrongs I saw before
0:36 me I began by securing all cords running
0:39 along the floor with strips of Gaff tape a rugged Man don't got no fear of
0:44 falling but losing A Hard Day's work on account of a sudden loss of power that
0:49 ain't manly just stupid now I've got a
0:52 standing desk on account of sitting all day as leading cause a cheek sleep itis
0:58 so I grabbed one of my truck Rusty power strips selecting one with a 4ot cord to
1:03 account for enough slack to raise my desk to a stand and hide at frequent
1:07 intervals throughout the day and screwed that sucker into the bottom of my desk a
1:13 task that made my Hunger rise inside me
1:16 with the force of a mighty lion I vowed
1:19 to continue my work but only after I had consumed the necessary sustenance for
1:25 both my body and my soul next would be
1:29 the most difficult ult task of my journey yet power
1:33 cords I tried scowling at the cords for
1:37 my PC monitor USB charger laptop and
1:41 desk and when nothing happened I scowled
1:44 again even harder when even that didn't
1:48 work I resorted to using J channel
1:51 double-sided velcro tape zip tie anchors
1:54 and K blocks to prevent these copper demons from ever regaining their freedom
2:00 but it was then that I realized the wires for my peripheral devices and
2:05 network cables they were small but they
2:08 were many I sprang into action before I
2:11 could be overwhelmed securing them with adhesive backed cable drops and
2:16 carefully forming them into straight lines wherever possible and it was in
2:21 that way that the army of living USBS
2:24 snake like as they were were contained by my two snakes boa and
2:31 Python and also this little Gizmo I
