Or black galvanized steal pipe as the case may be. In choosing Ted we carefully weighed and swung each of the various sizes that Home Depot offered. We found 18" of black galvanized "Quality Control" had the best heft-to-swing ratio. While I maintain I know nothing of who instigated or aided in the block-stacking that went on, I do know how much 4 12-packs of soda and 2 Dell 2001FP monitor's weigh when stacked vertically.

But, yeah, they were full – not a problem for the strong, capable employees at DreamHost. It’s amazing what sitting in front of a computer typing for 8+ hours a day can do one’s physique.
