But, I don't think he realizes the consequences of being an idiot. If anyone like that ever came in looking for a job, I'd turn him down flat and black-list him to everyone I know. I don't need that kind of idiot anywhere near me.

You might miss a great employee. I have to be a professional 50 hours a week, what I do on my own time is not my employers business. No, I'd not do what he did ( I don't drink to that extent!) but I have no problem raising **** on a dirtbike or playing with explosives, or even sending empty caulking tubes into orbit with a homebrew cannon. On the clock, I am all professional, 15 years on the same job, senior man, and 1.4 million or so accident free miles.

But yeah, he is an idiot when alcohol and tractors are involved. :confused2:

He should have at least had on a helmet.

His head would have to actually have some mass to have an impact cause damage.

Just because he admits to being an idiot doesn't mean he realizes the consequences of being one.

True. A thonk over the head with a clue stick might do him some good, but then it might just bounce off.

So true! He endangered himself and everyone around him. People that do stupid stuff like that obviously lack good judgement and you have to know they would do the same thing with your equipment.
I wonder if he would have laughed so hard if the driver of the tow vehicle had been forced to hammer on the brakes? Or do a quick, hard turn?

Here's another one that make you glad you aren't related to him. Check out the look on his face at about 0:43

What a dumb frak; but what do you expect from someone who pierces himself for fashion's(?) sake.

I've read enough of your posts. I'm pretty confident that you have some common sense, and you're smart enough to know that there are limits to the benifit of raising ****.

There's a very important difference between fun fooling around and being a stupid fool. This guy crosses the line when he crosses the yellow line. The "look ma no hands" moves are none too impressive either. A stunt like this on some deserted back road is one thing, but down a busy highway is yet another. You can kill yourself, but when you risk killing someone else, that's the line I draw.

Aww, dude, you're gonna ruin my whole reputation.

Actually, don't say "common sense". If "sense" was "common", the news would be very unentertaining.
