The mean part was the fact that we videotaped the whole thing. Told him we had to submit proof to the Coast Guard!!

In high school some of my friends and I were mechanically inclined, as in we tinkered and worked on our own heaps (cars) to keep them running. There was this guy nobody much liked, who had asked us for help with his VW Beetle. We were walking out to the parking lot to look at it with him, and as we were walking he was telling us the symptoms it had.

We got to his car and were looking it over discussing possibilities, when my best friend knowingly established that it was an overheating problem, and that what this guy needed was new upper and lower radiator hoses. Well the rest of us triumphantly agreed and even said we would help the guy install them if he would go to the parts store and pick them up. We gave him the instructions that since it was an older car, it might be that the parts store wouldn't have them listed, and not to worry but just keep trying different stores until he found them.

Don't forget going below for a bucket of steam...

That's funny Roy!! I work in a paper mill. Had a couple new guys start last summer and we sent one of them to the boiler room for a bucket of steam. Man did we laugh when he came walking back shaking his head

Yeah but what would you do with a whole box of short circuits? I have never needed more than one at a time and those things will go bad on you in no time!

James worked for a Natural Gas co. from El Paso Tex. and each main office had a RFL 1kw single side band radio in case the communicatrions failed to control the pipe line gas flow.
One day one of the 2 transmitting tubes burned out so only one was glowing. and Forman walked by saw the dead tube made a comment it needed replacing the head technician said working single side band forman walked on about 3 steps and turned around to hava it repeated but no one was able to stop laughing at the expression on his face.

Also the new employees were incouraged to blow the moisture out of wave guides. When doing the maintance.

Ah yes El Paso Natural gas company, I make a trip out to the Jal and No Trees area in 1975, and I never saw so many company cars and trucks in my life in one area!. It seemed like nearly every other car or truck was owned by El Paso Natural Gas Comnpany., As for the final tube...er.. lets see, if you use Lower sideband you use the tube on the left, and for Upper sideband you use the tube on the right? and you only need them both together if your running AM? (sorry guys feeble attempt at ham humor)

Up here we are running out of supplies. You can't buy wheels for a miscarriage. There all out and on back order but the good news is that Home Depot got short circuits on special this week but you need to buy them by the box.

Have you checked to see if they have any Round Tooits? They usually sell out of them pretty quick around here. I really hate when I didn't finish a project because I couldn't get a round tooit.

If anyone is interested.......I sell 'load locks for flatbeds' 'DVD rewinders' and 'wood or coal fired air conditioners' all at very competitive prices!

think back of the old days of cassette tapes .. now fast forward to a year ago...I was at work at a venue one time listening to some cd's via headphone. some middle manager who is clueless asked what I was doing and i replied I was que'ing up a stack of cd's. they said ok and walked on..

I almost feel bad about that one..
