  2. #1 so that is how they do it! I wonder the temp on the "chocolate" and what chemistry is used to keep its melting point low. The retail version is well known, but now I am thinking about it.

    #2 There are vasts numbers of sea snakes off the coast of Okinawa, but there is no color. I used to swim with 18 footers and didn't find out later that they are lethal, but can really only latch on to fingers and toes. Not sure if at 15 or 20 feet if they could bite elsewhere, but luckily they are not aggressive.

    #4 I would like to "tumble" with any women who can do that.

    #5 You can take the racing pig out of the race, but you can't take the race out of the racing pig

    #6 far from the stupidest shit I have seen in a barracks hallways

    #7 if you don't have a compressor, you can by blowing little vacuums that don't cost much and are powerful and save you for worrying about keeping canned air.

    #8 I always enjoy those fluid dynamics videos.

    #9 all pets appreciate a special toy or game setup that you rig. I like to make little pillow forts for the cats to crash in while they are chasing stuff. My wife likes to make boxes with holes cut so they can use their own creativity to play with each other.

    #10 oof. I bet he doesn't even have comprehensive on that vehicle. But at least the hand operator captured the action.

    1. About 50 years ago, an IBM repairman (punch-card equipment) told me that when cleaning equipment, "never blow, always suck." That's to eliminate forcing dirt into moving parts.

    1. Reminds me of the time, back in '67, two Lt' Jg's decided they were going to race each other down the hill on the road in front of the BOQ at NAS/NAVCOMSTA Argentia, NFLD in those big wheeled laundry hampers. 'Course it was at night and they were both shitfaced.

      Things were going fine for the first 20-30 feet until one of them decided he was going to lean against one side of the hamper with disastrous results. They ended up colliding and road surfed a few feet sustaining road rash in a couple places. Both were transferred to different ships within about a month.

      Apparently, the Base Captain got wind of the stunt and was none too pleased.

    2. I stayed in the "Hilton" designed barracks 87-89 when stationed there as an OTA(Oyster Trainer). That hill was brutal from mid Sept-mid April, and stayed I y most of the time.

  5. #10 - "Hello Jake from State Farm ? Is my drone covered from a collision with a flying jet-ski ?"

  6. #7, years back I had the job of cleaning up an bunch of PCs that'd been used in, let's say 'less than ideal' conditions. Some of them were that bad.

    You could tell the ones where they let people smoke around them, the inside of the case would be stained yellow.

    1. #7 - I routinely blow out machines I work on. Sometimes they're this bad.

  7. #1 The things you learn in WC's GIF dumps!

  8. #10 Back in the 1980s in Hawaii a surfer kicked out of a wave sending his board flying. The board contacted a low flying aircraft causing considerable damage to the aircraft and destroying the board. Both said the other was at fault. It went to court but I forget how it turned out.

    FAA regulations since the mid-1990s would hang that pilot out to dry.

  9. One of my friends worked at Ingalls shipyard in Pascagoulo, in the 1990's. He said that had a system out in the yard under a rain cover, but otherwise exposed. There were signs on the outside and inside of both doors instructing support to NOT try cleaning the system because it worked just fine with 8 years worth of dried muck in it.

    1. First crews into Afghanistan found that out. First rotation would blow try to clean their equipment every week if not every night every single PC (especially the laptops died within a couple of months. Someone noticed that the neglected PC's lasted longer. One other thing, after the first rotation we were told to NEVER ship those PC's back to the states. It seems the home guard had learned what was in the dust in the sh!t box where we played.
