Re: Random pictures that you did not take.

I still watch football. I know they do some dumb stuff on there but if you drink enough beer you don't care.

Re: Random pictures that you did not take.

I've never been a football on TV watcher, or any professional sport. I never got how the guys would all want to sit inside to watch someone else play a sport on a beautiful Sunday. It all started when we were young and athletic.
Me: "It's a great day. Let's get everybody together for a game of football"

Them: "We'd like to but the game is on"

Me: "Screw that"

Random picture I didn't take. I like this crabber's boat. I'm a truck guy. This is my kind of boat!

A wild idea! Would've worked better on a pre-81. Just looking at that makes my spindle hurt

Innovative? Dumping dirt on a fire will certainly put it out!

Re: Random pictures that you did not take.



Yeah, it’s a battery terminal. I ran across an ad on Facebook and that pic is posted in the ad as a selling point of the product. They should just post a pic of a car burning to the ground.

Kinda like one of those octopus looking things you see on an AC wall outlet

No kidding? Jesus H. Christ. I am at a loss for words. What are they running off all those wires? Have they ever heard of a fuse? I doubt any of that is fused.

You're right. Just sit back and get the marshmallows ready and wait for the fire.

Maybe BBQ a couple of Oscar Mayer weenies too. Dodger Dogs. Yummy.

Reminds me of something that happened at the Pomona Swap meet. Some guy was selling air bags with signs all over the place saying how good they were. He had some cars on display all pumped up. No big deal. I walked right past it.

Then one of his "indestructible' air bags exploded. It was like a bomb went off. My ears were ringing and people were running and Pomona gets pretty crowded. Everybody freaked out. It was a situation. I just looked at at my friend and said WTF was that? My ears were ringing. I don't know what he said. Probably "What?'. That thing was LOUD! Talk about percussion. Whoa!

And this seller guy just stood there with his dumb signs trying to sell his POS airbags like nothing happened. These people will try to sell you anything.

Ha Ha, that's great! Reminds me of the stupid air filter housing on my push mower. The cover didn't click on well and liked to fall off while mowing. One time I didn't noticed and ran it over along with the filter. To finish mowing (and a few more mows) I cut a piece of screen out, put a rag over it, and zip-tied it on. I bought a new cover that fits worse. It is now screwed in place.

Also reminds me of my rolling trash bin. It's from when I moved here in '87 and been through two company acquisitions (new stickers) a I also changed companies once. I could ask this company for a new bin but the old ones are larger, and now it has become an endurance test.

They've banged it down on the pavement so hard on an angle the axle has popped off several times. I fix it. Then a wheel broke, I replaced them. They broke those wheels, so I put pneumatics on. I got tired of the axle popping out, so I bolted blocks across to prevent it. People are out restoring 1987 Chevy trucks and I'm still daily (weekly) driving my '87 trash bin. It's also worn through the bottom front from 35 years of dragging. I am known to load it up. They have a hoist and I have unlimited service. They've never complained about my construction debris I've filtered through my curbside pickup. I have ideas for the worn bottom but lately I've been wondering if I should just ask for a new bin. In the meantime I don't throw anything in loose I don't want laying in my driveway. I'll throw a pizza box or other cardboard in first.
