LOL I have found that jumping up and down on a wrench to turn a bolt doesnt help any other than give you a sprained ankle......and swearing at them doesnt loosen them up much!
Kicking a tire and grabbing a beer from the fridge works great........you soon mellow and dont give a monkeys about some heap of metal! : D

The mellow beer drinking reminds me of the tale told about the restoration of an old airplane. Several buddys got together and bought an old fabric covered airplane to restore and fly to antique airplane airshows.

They managed to get the fabric removed from the plane and drank lots of beer but not much else. After a couple of years it was decided that if the airplane was ever going to fly again it would have to be restored by professionals. That was the best idea they had because the old plane was gorgeous when it was finished.

So you see, grabbing a beer from the fridge turns out for the best sometimes......... : )

The finished old airplane look similar to this one.
