We had presses that hit bar stock for the mortars and steel blanks for the grenades like that out at the ammo plant. The constant motion of the floor would almost make your stomach queasy until you got used to it. And the noise? It was so loud in the grenade press room that you had to wear earplugs and headsets and you had to stand dick to dick and scream in each other's ears to make yourself heard. There was a lot of written communications going on in the press rooms.

  1. #1, had a similar sighting of that at a Walmart (imagine that!) several years ago. The outcome was the same. Loved #8

  2. #10: Ken you ever think all those mortors and grenades you were making were going to wind up with the IRS?

  4. I know nothing about jetskis but it seems #6 fell over way too easy.
    #8, that's a lot of water if it was full!

  5. #10 made me think of WWII, when America's industrial machine was at it's peak. And the number of planes, tanks, and ships, were pumped out like no other nation on earth could ever hope to duplicate.
    That was just as responsible for us winning against the Axis powers as the incredibly brave men and women who were on the front lines, either fighting or supporting those who fought. The medical personnel such as nurses and surgeons, were just as important to me as those who carried weapons.

  6. #6 is a Sea-Doo Spark. Too small & easy to 'huli' (turn over). My Yamaha Waverunner is super hard to huli, takes a big wave & bad driver to flip...

    1. When I was in the service, the DI’s favorite was “stand nuts to butts” if he wanted us in a *really* close line…

    2. “Make your buddy smile,” as Sergeant Airborne used to say.

  9. #8 I dislike practical jokes generally and this was one of the worst. I would make him regret this for the rest of his life.

  11. #7 I would never have a dog like that. Complete food asshole. But there are dishes for that sort of hogging. What that guy needs is a dog that can defend its own "catch"....food. Like a wolf.

  12. #8 How hungover do you have to be that you don't hear a diesel tractor sneaking up on you?
    #9 LIDAR installation in an unpressurized airplane (Piper Navajo?) so the hole in the fuselage is not a problem.

  13. Back in '76 I worked at the Hydril plant in L.A. on Vignes St. (where the county jail now stands) making blowout preventers. There was a forge shop behind us a block away, and we could feel the vibrations in the floor when they got to hammering away.
