Actually, they are called aglets. You should know that... being in the profession, I mean.

Given my humor was not understood I didn't think too many would know what an aglet was so I used a common understandable term. It is a technical profession after all with its own jargon that can be confusing to those outside the craft.

57 years young.
I work in the commercial roofing industry.
Drive a 2001 Arctic Silver Boxster on the weekends.
(and a 2015 Infiniti Q60S during the week)
This is my second Porsche.
The first was a 2007 Cayman S that I drove off the showroom floor.
(that was a great day!!)

42, lead recruiting for the nation's largest non-Federal credit union.

The 986S is my 2nd watercooled P-car (first was an '88 944S many years ago). My other daily is a slightly modded 2012 GTI; there's also a 2012 Golf TDI in our fleet.
