You are the lawyer looking for a mechanic job!
Well bring a tub of this recipe in during an interview for sure success!


2oz bacon fat(strain thru a cheese cloth)
1oz fresh peanut oil(chop and blend, then press)
3oz baby tears
a pinch of lemon juice to keep grease from spoiling


Mix well. This is like egg whites where the longer you mix the fluffier it gets. You need equal parts oil to tears to ensure the grease is both slick and long lasting. The tears chemically bond to the grease.


This stuff will last you about 5 bikes, assuming you repack all the bearing points on each bike.
