How long do I have to watch this before the train comes out of those trees?
How long do I have to watch this before the train comes out of those trees?
More than 4 hrs. 32 min. ....just sayin.
My wife got me this flag plaque with 9mm stars.
I love that woman.

Recently I found an all steel Tonka dump truck for my grandson and I had planned to buy him a Tonka each Christmas (his Bday is this month, he’ll be 1). He LOVES the dump truck.
I looked for the articulating loader and they now have a plastic bucket and handle and are $100 or so. So, off to ebay...
Found a like new all steel one for about the same money.
It’s on the way!

Those all steel Tonka trucks are getting very hard to find. Buy up others when you can find them. Then you can hold them back until it's birthday/Christmas time.
Congrats!
Congrats!
Ebay is great for vintage quality.

My wife wants a good sized plot of lavender when we move to the farm permanently this spring.
They grow like weeds, so she should be able to have as much as she'd like. Good luck!
My grandma used to buy me a new tonka truck every birthday. That was 40+ years ago, screw the plastic versions. When they make real front loaders out of plastic, maybe then will I come around.Recently I found an all steel Tonka dump truck for my grandson and I had planned to buy him a Tonka each Christmas (his Bday is this month, he’ll be 1).

One of most memorial ass beatings my mom ever handed out was because I put a dozen stitches in the neighbor's kid with a Tonka...no, it wasn't an accident.
This is Francisco and he thinks the labradoodle is his pillow.
I got lucky. I was drilling through a block wall from the inside. There was a little resistance but nothing abnormal. After removing the drill I could see daylight and went outside to locate the hole. I drilled completely through the bracket and the riser for the 225 amp service.
This picture was after I hammered the burs over. Then I called the electrician to come and repair.
Note to self.... allow more room for error when measuring.

I shot my brother with my BB gun and it wasn't an accident either. SOB deserved it and given the same circumstances I would do the same every time. I got grounded for a week which was pretty minor, which told me dad agreed but still we don't shoot our brother. So he had to do something. He was know to ground us for a month ( and he held to it) while also crushing and throwing away our favorite toy. Even if that toy wasn't "involved".
The fact my BB gun came out unscathed and it was only 7 days, told me I wasn't really wrong. My brother was a prick at the time.

That's my brother. He keeps hijacking my account and posting shit that gets me in trouble.

You are lucky to not be dead.
God I wish there was an after report of this story. Why isn't there an after report to this story?

Bro you coulda been deaded.
I was called out to a duplex townhouse once for the kitchen laminate squishing when you walked on it. It was on a slab and the floor was floating type.
What I ended up seeing was the drywall behind the fridge was wet about 5’ up, down to the floor....so I cut a section out and the plumber hadn’t secured the pex with clips and the drywall guy had missed the stud and ran a screw into the hot water supply line for the upstairs bath.
The house was 5 years old so that’s how long it takes a drywall screw to rust away
. Builder wouldn’t cover it....I spotted a screw ran through a floor and poking through the Romex in a crawlspace once. After I killed the power and got it off the screw, I was able to see that miraculously the screw went between the neutral and the ground.
I wasn’t sure if it was making electrical contact or not because I ripped the insulation when pulling it off but it had to be close. Wouldn’t have been a serious problem except in certain fault circumstances but just shows that random screws and drilling can be ....problematic.
Ahhhhh, rental homes. It’s an adventure...
Several years ago I got home and on the front page is a picture of a house that burned down. A new house in an upscale development that my company (I am the owner) had just installed the HVAC system in. Headline read... Electric fire destroys new home. Sheesh this is not good. Turned out that it was a staple through a piece of romex in the garage. Seems that when they installed the insulation a staple was run through the wire. No one home and with a fully gassed up boat, lawnmower and other flammables in the garage it didn't take long to destroy someone's $750K home.

Hell, I'm still trying to figure it out today.
My wife is deeply hoping they make the PX harder to find!
As long as I can find Maggie's and the bear pit, I'm fine.

When his SR-71 Disintegrated, This Pilot Free Fell From Space & Lived to Tell About It - CHUCKYEAGER.ORG
During the early days of testing for the legendary SR-71 Blackbird there were some harrowing mishaps, the details of which have rarely come to light. On January 25, 1966, test pilot Bill Weaver and Lockheed flight test reconnaissance and navigation systems specialist Jim Zwayer experienced their...

Re: running screws and shit through things.
Mountain Home AFB, Idaho, circa 1995/1996. We"re transitioning from JP-4 to JP-8 fuel and the F-15s are shitty leaking sieves from the wings due to shoddy repair practices.
(The idiots would just over torque screws to slow the leak down instead of doing a proper injection of non-curing sealant)
Anyhow, we have this guy, let's call him Steve. He's running the injection tip along the leading edge area. While tightening it he encounters some resistance then it goes away. Another couple of inches and resistence again. Then all is good.
Steve proceeds to inject an entire 6oz tube of sealant and gets no flow from the open screw hole 12" away.
Hmmmm.
Okay, another tube.
Same result.
Hmmmmmmm.
Sumpin ain't right. Lemme pull this apart. About that time I stroll into the hangar as he's removing the injection screw (it's about 4" long) and see a 3/8" fountain of fuel spurting from the wing.
Thankfully, Steve was quick witted, contrary to his Fred Flintstone looks.
He stuffed the screw back in and stopped the leak
Stay tuned for what happened. I gotta run out and fix a feeder and I'll post up what happened later today.

Bath house and 6.5 guys is redundant and there ain't no 308 "guys" in there because that giant gay tray won't fit in the closet.
Yeeeears ago I was stationed in Humboldt County CA where there is a species of psychedelic mushroom that looks almost exactly like a species of mushroom that is chock full of neurotoxins, once or twice a year the news would cover a case of Darwin thinning out the hippie population.
