Top of the line Benjamin Moore latex, 2 coats, will do this. I had a bathroom sink leak over a kitchen with a 2x3 blister in the ceiling, about 6" thick. Let the kids whack it with a stick, which they thought would be great fun. It was, sorta.
No, that's a cholla cactus. I knew that as soon as I saw that chub broken off. You absolutely do not want to touch it. Anything those little barbed spines touch, they just bury themselves in deeper. This is one of those jobs you let somebody else do and they better be wearing heavy leather gloves. It's bad enough that for the next week she's going to get barb tips in her fingers every time she washes her hair. Seriously, cholla is some wicked shit. Google it when you get a chance.
Actually, that’s Mammillaria elongata, the Golden Star cactus. How it got in her hair is a mystery, and the spines do hurt, but it’s nowhere near as nasty as those damned chollas.
#3 F15, off the end of the runway....Crew (2 seats so F15E? rode it in so likely a brake failure. He'll be allowed to fly again if he didn't cause the failure.
#1...well, he walked away from it.
#4: Had a few come into the Emergency Room like that. Not good. Remove with metal implements, pull barbs out
7 did that in the 70s. Even had a stack of pallets just like that. I was by myself, middle of the night. Just start stacking those pallets until you can get a jack under it to make room for one more, then drive off.
#2 A large 4wd farm tractor pulling a manure spreader. Must have been some dumb ass operator to turn that outfit over. When you hire farm labor, you dont always get the sharpest knife in the drawer. chestnut
#5, I bet that hurt! #7, concrete blocks, wooden blocks and a hyd jack or two and you can drive it back to solid ground. Keep a picture so can remind yourself... #10- Talk about needing a pump!
# 3 Was that Kingsley Field in Klamath Falls ? Now an Air national guard training base. Early 60’s had a F-101 invert and pilot ejected downward into the canal.
What kind of paint did they use in 10
ReplyDeleteThat's a trailer so it is probably not paint...it's likely the entire ceiling is one continuous piece of vinyl coated chip board.
DeleteSpandex white.
DeleteSame question: WTF kind of paint IS that? I want some...

O.K., they're all explainable . . . except #8. How the hell do you get a cactus stuck in your hair?
ReplyDelete#8 Ok cactus in the hair. Standing there crying helps? I'd be getting the damn thing outta my head. People are weird.

I think that's the one called "Jumping Cactus", although it doesn't actually jump...it just seems like it.
DeleteYou need pliers to pull them out.

DeleteIt appears you're right. Thanks for the correction.
DeleteI got into a cholla as a kid. I had little bumpy scars for years. Chollas suck.
DeleteProbably why she's crying, I suspect it fell on her or...
ReplyDelete#3 Annnd the aircraft is consider a total loss? Guessing to the pilot didn't get to fly high-performance aircraft again?

5) Q: What's worse than a tornado?
ReplyDeleteA: A tittie twist.... er, wait.
This is worse. Much worse.
