O' great spirit of air conditioning, I apologize for all of my transgressions. I regret my use of the heretical fan instead of coming to thee directly with my problems. I weep that the EPA has banned thy most ancient and wonderful freon because it "destroyed the planet". I have not been recently to thy holy land, Trane, or worshiped in the temple ( Read more... )

So I had this dream the other day. In my dream, I was working for this british company that for some reason had to video congested traffic. My crew and I were assigned to Paris, which makes me wonder why it so particularly had to be a British company, and to the area around the Arch de Triumph. Really, my job was simple. I was supposed to drive ( Read more... )

Keeping this in mind, after my exam I was told that the ( Read more... )

So the SKS is acting up again. The firing pin is now stuck in the forward position, which means that should the bolt close, any live rounds in the chamber will fire. As the rifle is semi, it would in effect become an out of control fully automatic rifle of doom. This is naturally most undesirable as well as unsafe. Tomorrow the soaking in brake ( Read more... )

So today, being filled with a boredom which had no equal, I decided to adventure for my weapon. I tried first the local gun/pawn shop right down the road from the plant where I work. BINGO! I walked in and found the fellow who runs the place chatting away with a wirey little man. I asked if he had any Samozaryadnyi Karabin sistemi Simonova rifles. ( Read more... )

In the spirit of the day, I too shall post. Running a front end loader until all hours definately does not put one in the mood to do much else. When I complete my extremely boaring tasks for the day, or night as it often is, I find myself longing for something to do. I would certainly do anything to have something to do. I've found a dealer in ( Read more... )

Okay so today is just a trivia question. Whoever can answer it correctly, without having to do research, wins a prize that I will award to them at some point.......maybe. Anyway, the challenge is to name all three third stooges, that is not Larry and Moe but the other guy, in order of their appearances. Then to further complicate things, tell me ( Read more... )
