Never saw a real purpose for a flare gun until #2, maybe I'll pick up one now? Guy just never knows when you might need to start a fire from a safe distance.
10 people against a draft horse is no competition whatsoever. When starting the equine medicine part of veterinary school, the first thing that the professor emphasizes to the students is that "horses are strong!" And despite this there is always at least one student that gets flipped across the room when examining a horse that doesn't want to be examined. Most are smart enough to heed the warning about not standing behind the horse.
Gentle as Belgians are, when I was in Veterinary School we had a pasture horse at the equine center named Alex, a big Belgian. He was as gentle as could be and would run up to you when you approached his pasture and would let anyone, even babies, pet him, but woe unto you if you didn't have an apple, carrot, sugar cubes or a handful of sweet feed. He'd bite the shit out of you. Not the children, ONLY the adults. Spoiled, he was.
When I was in vet school, the clinicians knew I was going to pursue small animal and were nice enough to "Save" all the draft breed patients for me to work with cause they were so docile and easy to work with. then one day we had a donkey come in hit by a school bus. That thing was mean as shit and stubborn as their reputations say. He and I wound up getting along great because of his difficult personality and even after I got off of my large animal rotation, they let me continue with his care (he was there for like 8 weeks), because he got to where I was the only one he'd let mess with him. That made me feel accomplished before I had even graduated. Clinicians would send someone up to small animal building to get me when he needed some work and I'd go get him, do what needed to be done and leave.
#2 Well, that's ONE way. . . But, seriously, that's obviously not his first time. A flare gun is more like a mortar than any normal gun ballistics-wise.
#8) Many farmers in my area call pigeons flying rats. #9) Aside from catching a big fish (or something else entirely) the next thing I noticed was the trail of black water stirred up behind him.
When I was in high school I saw a guy weaving through traffic come off his bike in the middle of a three lane highway and get run over by a Lincoln Town Car. I really wish I hadn't seen that.
#2 - the flare at a chemical plant where I worked went out and the auto-ignitor was malfunctioning. Boss, knowing I did a little bowhunting, asked me if I could shoot a flaming arrow that high. I just laughed until I realized he was serious. Then I had to explain that the flaming arrow that goes up eventually comes down. As we weren't "out to sea" but rather in the middle of a giant chemical complex, having flaming arrows fall from the sky was not a very good idea.
#1 - I've been riding street bikes for over 40 years now, I've never ridden with a group like that and never want to. Idiots one and all, and giving the rest of us a bad image too.
Lane splitting is allowed in Californa. It's okay most of the time, just don't open your door to spit or you might get a surprise! Personally I think it's tempting death.
#2 I think that is the sour gas flare on a natural gas rig. Sour gas contains deadly hydrogen sulphide, burning it creates water and sulphur dioxide which is merely an irritant. Al_in_Ottawa
#6. Southwest Airline. I was on a flight once when the FA did that. Also an older video as those appear to be the bags of 17 peanuts, that you don't get anymore because of nut allergies

ReplyDeletePlanning a trip to Seattle?
DeleteI've started yard debris burn piles with them.

#1 you get what you fu@#ing deserve.
ReplyDeleteHe slid about thirty feet with the full weight of that bike on top of him.
DeleteToo bad. So sad.
Agreed. Zero sympathy.
DeleteStupid is supposed to hurt
DeleteI hope it hurt a lot. For a long time.
Delete#7 A Belgian? Draft horses, such power, yet so gentle. Marvelous creatures.

Delete10 guys couldn't even muster up "1 HP".
DeleteNo contest.
DeleteThat horse could probably skid a log that weighs 5 times the weight of those guys.

Delete#5 - "What have you learned from your observation of the earthlings?"
ReplyDelete"Oh, Great One, they seem to be slaves to small four-legged animals."
I have to admit, I've done that
DeleteMaybe he just hates the smell of wet dog?
Delete#10 That's a great shirt he has on. But I wouldn't let him drive my boat.
ReplyDeleteActually, in a bind, he's the one I WANT driving my boat. See how close he came to that piling without hitting it?
DeleteExtreme boat docking race.

ReplyDelete#7. Trojans who didn't want the horse.

#3 If I were the arson investigators I know who I'd question first!
ReplyDeleteOne people just want to sit and watch the world burn.
ReplyDeleteJust once I'd like to see one of those japscrap showboaters get smeared across the road by an loaded semi...just once!
ReplyDeleteChutes Magoo
There is a video out there showing just that.

There's just no way to avoid saying this: lane splitter deserve what happens to them.

Delete#1 - guess he's head-over-heels in love with his bike?
ReplyDelete#1. Good
ReplyDelete#2 Kentucky windage
#3. School's out forever ...
#6 That's acceleration
#10 Some kind of competition, probably commercial fishing.
