it’s what they taught him in college

After lunch, Kev and I head on over to a shopping center to do some light browsing.  First stop, Staples, where he can compare computer monitor prices to the one he’s got his eye on elsewhere.  His current monitor has some loose connections and occasionally goes all blurry and wavy, and can only be fixed by a thorough *THUNK!* to the side.  Yeah, it’s annoying.
While browsing, the gallons of sweet tea consumed at The Corner Pub start to kick in, as well as his sinuses acting up as the result of a lingering cold, and Kev leaves to find the restroom.  I browse printers and give longing looks to the scanner/printer combos.  Think of the button designs…I could draw…

Then the tea catches up with me as well, and I make my way to the restroom as well.  Kev is nowhere to be seen, maybe he’s still in the mens room.  Hmmmm…

While in the restroom, I hear through the wall whiiiirrrrrzzz….whiiiirrrrrzzzz….whirrrrrzzzzzzz

Huh.  Someone must be having trouble with the paper towel dispenser in the men’s room.

whiiiiirrrrrzzzz…whiiiiirrrrrrzzz…*THUNK!*

Oh.  It’s Kev.

    The correct term for Kev’s action is “impact adjustment.”

    No, it’s percussive maintenance.
