don't forget the hydrating electrolytes.

And the road my school was paved in broken glass and lemon juice.

Oh.
Just no.

One hair less friction than desired, and much death and mayhem ensues.

HAHA! nice!

Goodbye wheelbolts and any chance of ever getting that one off if the wrench slips was my only thought...

Could be worse...had a cheapskate come in to the shop one day who wanted us to go over to his house and loosen the bolts for him...seems he'd assumed they were rusted in place because he couldn't loosen them with the provided 70's 'wheel wrench' (Yes; that horrible 120° angled monstrosity that came with cars back then)..so he decided to 'loosen the rust' by pounding on them with a sledge hammer. Needless to say; We had to tow it in, cut off (except for the one he broke clean off) and replace all the nuts AND bolts.

“Lear 8 Romeo Alpha is down and clear. Taxi to parking”.

This happened last week at Livingston, MT. They landed downwind, overshot the runway, and ended up in the ravine beyond the airport. Two pilots onboard, no passengers, no injuries, 40 year old Learjet probably a parts plane now.

used to be a guy on here who'd work on things just like that.
Haven't seen him since Sep '21.

How did I not hear about this?!

Probably because the aviation news was clogged with the missing plug door story. Even the plane that landed on another one in Japan and burned to the ground disappeared from news coverage when Bob the teacher found the door in his back yard.

to be fair, that iPhone falling more than a foot & ½ (16,000 feet) & still working is pretty newsworthy

Spammers give no end of humor.

Ok, firstly, you have got to give them props for getting the contraction correct.

But I feel bad for having burst in their inbox.

That's some real talent there. Like to see a full video, to see if he completes without spilling.

Brew on

I’m shocked he can hold 5 cups up like that to get it going.

They didn't "fall off the back of the truck", they look perfectly fine.

Totally legit, I'm sure.
