So is Blinker Fluid!!!
-
There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Several years ago, when I had semis, a Dot officer pulled me over for a safety inspection. After showing him my license log book etc., he asked me what I had in the trailer. I told him I had a load of sailboat fuel. From the expression on his face, I don't think he saw the humor in the answer.

When I showed up at my first job in the Air Force as a lowly one-striper, our shop foreman decided to have some fun with me. He told me we needed a gallon of prop wash. I asked where to get it, and he said to check all the flight line maintenance shops. I'm from a military family and had heard all the stories. I went back to the dorm and slept most of the day away . . . headed back right about quitting time, and when the TSgt saw me, he bellowed at me, asking where the hell I'd been , all day. I told him that there was, apparently, a real shortage of prop wash . . . every shop I went to sent me to another, and finally, one guy told me to wait while he mixed some . . . but he never came back. The guy was skeptical . . . I think he knew he'd been had, but what could he do . . . he was the one who sent me after it!

Last time the power went out, I called a company that advertised that they did light hauling.
I asked them to bring me out a load. :clap:

A guy I knew got caught in a portable weight check with his big rig. That ODOT guy (OhiO DOT) did not seem impressed when said, he was concerned about being overloaded wwith post holes.

I have a picture someplace of the stepson wearing a red bandana (kamikazi style), holding a burlap bag, crouched in the bushes, and waiting for the snipe so we could have a special campfire meal. :roflblack:

The railroad is a notorious place for sending the uninitiated on wild goose chases. They can backfire too. We once had a female material expeditor who was also in charge of a welding shop. The guys there once asked her to order some cement welding rod. One time I asked one of our laborers who was a parts handler to fetch a left handed sky hook and take it to "Rocky Jones". I told him to ask "John Smith" in another area for the hooks location. John sends him to Tom, to Jerry, and then to Ben. Names changed to protect the innocent. Finally, after a couple hours, the bewildered deliverer gets on the radio and calls the foreman. He says I (me) sent him after a LH skyhook, he has one, but he forgot who needed it. The foreman was apparently "uninitiated" as well. I thought my ass was in for it now. And I was right. My boss's, boss's, boss's, boss hauled me into the office and gave my a big butt chewing. Then he started laughing and told me not to waste the laborer's time again. Thirty years later you still remember moments like these.

I did did almost the same thing as a unit armorer except it was for a quart of recoil oil. I did find a quart of recoil cylinder oil but he said it was the wrong stuff...

They sent me away once to get some oil stiffener. They said the oil was too slippery and they needed to stiffen it. I came back about 1 1/2 hours later with a bag of cement and two gallons of water. They bought me beers that night!

Then there is "Check the voltage on the vortex generators" and "Go to that KC-135 and put the ejection seat pins in the seats"
Vortex generators are on the wings to direct airflow evenly across the surface.
KC-135's don't have ejection seats..
Go to the cable shop and get us 50 yards of flightline...
We had lots of fun with the newbies using these....

Isn't flightline the same stuff my kids used to make craft bracelets out of? They called it fiightline and paracord?
