#1, looks like working on the engine, went and hit the ignition while it was in gear and off she goes. Friend did that but he was in a garage and had it in reverse and in the side window a good ways when it fired. He got out of the window by a hair or he'd have been cut in half when the window passed the door frame of the garage.
One fine day under a brilliant sun, the lake smooth as glass and no one, absolutely no one but meself at the ramp. I launched the boat, tied to the dock, started the engine, got into my truck to drive to parking lot. I amble down to the boat and see some weird burbling at the transom. Then I see about 6" of water and getting deeper inside the boat.
I hightailed it to the truck and got the boat on the trailer in the nick of time before she sunk at the dock. With drain plug removed, it took about 20 minutes at full stream from a 1" opening to drain the water. Yep, it had froze the week before and two drain plugs had popped out of the engine block.
A brilliant day done and gone. I was all by myself. Thankfully it happened at the dock and not out on the lake.

ReplyDeleteInteresting to me is ... Humor is a sign of intelligence, but unintelligent - AKA stupid people - are also extremely humorous in their own way.

My son wants me to buy him a paramotor. I told him that on that day Satan will ice-skate to work.
ReplyDelete#9 That would be me, except I don't dress as snazzy.
