#10: I think it would be much cooler to actually play the tape normally instead of reversing it like those guys did. Either that, or edit out all the guys walking backward.
#2 and #3: I know this is going to get me a lot of flak, but this is why my animals live outside.
Strange. If this is contemporary, I wonder why the vessel does not incorporate a “bulbous bow,” which is a significant money saver in terms of fuel costs.
A big dog is a great deterrent. I went to Walmart with my 'ol buddy Bear(half Chow half Black Lab about 85 Lbs.) i went into the store with Bear camped out in the truck windows down. As I was coming out of the store I saw some shitbag reaching into the truck window to pilfer something. Well before I could even get a couple steps in that direction ,Bear lunged for the lowlife and nearly got the bastard . He took off like the devil himself was in hot pursuit , I was laughing so hard I nearly fell over. Needless to say 'ol Bear got himself extra goodies that afternoon
#7 reminded me of a time in the 1980's when the place I worked at melted certain metals only at night, due to the huge black cloud that would extend from our shop to a town about 10 miles down the shoreline of Lake Michigan from us. My shop was right on the eastern shore of the big lake. Of course we got upgraded equipment and smoke scrubbers that stopped the need to schedule oily scrap to be melted only in the dark.
#7 Every once in a great while, with the engine working hard, they throw a shovel full of sand into the firebox to scour the soot out of the flues. It improves thermal efficiency.
being witness to a large steam engine working hard like that - that is just an awesome demonstration of mechanical power that has been out of sight since the introduction of the diesel-electric locomotive.
If I recall this is the reason that laws were passed in the 1800's that placed blame for fires on the railroads.
Res ipsa loquitur is a doctrine in common law jurisdictions under which a court can infer negligence from the very nature of an accident or injury in the absence of direct evidence on how any defendant behaved in the context of tort litigation.
Cheap Chinese soft coal with lots of fines in it. Hard coal won't do that if properly fired at least nothing like that. Oil burners were sanded. Coal burners had to be reamed out with a stiff wire brush.
My local veterinarian offers a humane procedure that discourages cats from climbing as shown- I think it involves removal of the front and rear legs- sounds effective! GM
If you know the Blues song Smokestack Lightning by Howling Wolf #7 was the inspiration for the song. "We used to sit out in the country and see the trains go by, watch the sparks come out of the smokestack. That was smokestack lightning."[
#6 I would be beating my kids ass for throwing stuff into the blades of my wind mill. Or turn off the power in his room. Those things are expensive, and can make their cost back pretty quickly, as long as some dumb kid doesn't destroy it.
Yeah, and she was shooting video of the unboxing a $5, 1200 calorie cookie for tiktok clout, no doubt. With that in mind, as the Joker said, "You get what you fucking deserve."
When I was in high school in the early 1960's, the 100+ car diesel railroad trains slowly chugging up the Palmer Divide between Monument - Palmer Lake and Larkspur, Colorado, would blow out burning diesel fuel and set the prairie on fire. Almost every single day.
Trunk Monkey was a brilliant set of commercials. Especially the one that ends up with the monkey dropping the dead body off the bridge. Laughed my ass off!

#3 - This is why I take my key and credit card, and lock the door when I fuel up at BJs.

Leave the guts on 10 but add the music from Benny Hill
Delete#3, I don't know - cat helped change the channel from that extremely stoopid show that was so popular for unknown reasons in the 1980s and 90s'
Delete#10: I saw the same thing after noticing that the ship was fitted out with lots of flags. This was obviously a launch and not a haul-out.
DeleteIt's not running backwards, maroon!
DeleteThe guy on the right hand edge at the beginning is obviously running forward, so no, it's not running backwards.
DeleteExactly. Those anchors would have been swinging.
DeleteKlaus
It's running backwards. That guy on the right at the starts arm is bending backward.
DeleteThe other guys at the end are walking backward. Pick one thing and watch it.
I just thought it was Japanese, but reading the comments had me look closer. Note: the 37 is in mirror image.
DeleteIt's in reverse. Watch the water splash when the front loader enters/leaves the water.

Delete#1: Obama son protected by the MSM. Defended by the DNC. Justified by the Teacher's Union. Prove me wrong.
ReplyDeletealso - this is why I avoid refueling if unarmed, and always put cell phone in pocket when exiting the vehicle at the gas station.
DeleteDo like I do and just carry a pitbull in the vehicle with you.

DeleteWorking with what you have got. All credit to loco crew.

Also regarding the UTube, that loco working hard would be a good sound on a heavy metal track.
DeleteWith all of that in mind, does anyone recall the drum solo titled, "Freight Train?" It sounded like a train starting out and going through a crossing.
Delete#9 Done that a few times although I'll give this guy credit in that he's still on the bike and will ride away.
ReplyDeleteI’ve dragged a knee a couple of times
DeleteBut never propped the bike up with my forearm and elbow
Modern race bikes are amazing
