And hey, the Swavorski crystal casket will probably be a collector's item one day.
I don't want to get into an argument over it, because it's not worth it, but you will never convince me that his tub of wax will ever be worth more than he paid for it.

Even if it actually happens, I will deny that it did.

Seriously, he's not hurting anybody, but he takes the act way farther than Phil Hartman did on SNL as the 'Anal Retentive Carpenter.' 51 coats of wax? Even though he admitted that he couldn't tell a difference after 7 or 8?

I did love telling a mechanic friend of mine about it over dinner tonight. It made for great conversation. I hope that makes all his hard work worth it.
