Default New Grainger catalog

So there it was on my doorstep; a medium-sized but heavy box. Opened it
up and there was the brang-new Grainger catalog. All 4,130 pages of it,
most in 4-color printing. Nicely bound in a heavy cover that could
probably withstand any kind of industrial solvents.

Having been a printer (offset) in another lifetime, I find it amazing
that they can continue to print and distribute this gigantic catalog.
Especially considering the tiny amount of business I do with them
yearly. This thing must cost them $10-20 each to mail out.

Yeah, but isn't it great to have, if they don't carry it, then it is
almost impossible to find somewhere else.
