1.  My boat motor.  It's old, it leaks, and it's not good for the lakes.  I've tried and actually improved it, but man it's spilled its fair share of gas.

Now that’s one dedicated civil servant.

However, things quickly take a turn when his haste becomes rage and he begins smashing a trash bin on the side of his truck.
