I want to know the orientation of the umbrella in the box relative to the up arrow. Either it has no handle, or the weirdest handle, of any umbrella ever.

Yeah, I laughed at that myself. It’s a Cheap-Ass (TM) 13 foot patio umbrella. Fortunately it has no handle, although given everything else I wouldn’t have been surprised if it did.

FWIW, life on my deck has been kind of interesting lately. Last week I was out there smoking a cigar, which happens a lot this time of year. And then some doofus flew a drone over my house. I wonder if there’s any new YouTube video out there of a pissed-off guy, looking up, with a cigar and a 12 gauge.

I care less than I know, and I don't know shit about that.

Understeer: You will hit the wall with the front end.
Oversteer: You will hit the wall with the rear end.
Horsepower: How hard you will hit the wall.
Torque: How far you will move the wall.
