This should make you guys laugh: As I started down the carpted stairway to my computer room ,it is 2:42AM and I have my house slippers on with slick soles. My feet went out from under me and I slid down the entire length of the stairway on my a:: . Reminded me of a cartoon. Only not as funny . I will have a sore a:: in the morning. :moonu: :moonu: :moonu: :moonu:
A little advice Ken, as a rule I try to make sure I am awake before i try really complicated things such as walking, peeing, rubbing my eyes, scratching my ... :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: I have done it too!! o No: ou:
Vent thread....... uzzled: I dont see no vent thread :shock: Bring it back before we pop from the pressure :eek2: D.
I hammered the skin off the top of my thumb yesterday. Now it's nice and ugly. DUMB thing I did yesterday. That's what I get for trying to do things with the wrong tools.
Here's mine... Yesterday Jarrod Campbell and I replaced my vacuum advance module, so we 1 marked the distributor shaft position 2 removed the distributor 3 took it apart 4 put it back together with the shiny new VA 5 carefully put it back in the timing cover but... I forgot to mark the rotor position, so now I have to time the engine from scratch~! ou: :spank: :af: Frank Brooks
Ken - I have a stair related story that should make you chuckle. When 2 of my brothers were kids (10ish), they had a plastic snowmobile sled. One or both of them got the bright idea of 'sledding' down the stairs. ou: I'm guessing they forgot about the WALL 5' from the end of the stairs!! :eek2: Funny part was...I think BOTH of them took a turn crashing into the wall. :laugh: It's amazing any of us even made it this far!! :Brow:
....We went right through the back door about 12' downwind from the bottom of the stairs. Good thing I let my friend ride in the front !!!
Jim: the video is a great idea but I don't plan on a next time.I am glad to see that the Buick group also has guys that do goofy things.Ken
For awhile after we took the carpet off our stairs, a certain person would wake up at 3 in the morning like every day and proceed to "stair surf" down the stairs. I'd be downstairs watching tv and hear *THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMPPPPP* then "!#$@!#%!#%!@#$!#$!!!!!". :laugh:
fell down #2 You guys will not believe this:::::I am not making this up. Today I am putting new foam headliner on a headliner from a 87 Turbo Regal. After gluing the foam in place I proceed to take the headliner out to the sun shine to let the glue dry completely. I carried it in front of me being careful not to touch the fresh foam cloth. I let the headliner down too far and stepped on the edge of the carboard headliner. I fell forward into a somersault and landed on my righr shoulder. Ouch. My wife was standing there looking at me in amazement from seeing the trick I had just done. She carted me off to the emergency clinic and got my shouler X-rayed. GOOD no breaks or fractures. Muscles swollen very badley and still hurts like crazy. No work tommorrow or next day for me. I don't know what is going on???? Dumb or just getting old???? OK guys be careful. Ken ou: ou: ou:
Ken - At this point, all you can do is laugh!! :laugh: :laugh: I had my own 'double injury' this evening also. :grin: Yesterday, I was holding one of our older kittens.....about to set him down. As he was about to get out of my hands, he turned around real quick and tried holding on to my left hand with his claws!! :eek2: (I don't mind saying it....that HURT!!) Now I have several 'racing stripes' on the inside of my left hand....pinky, ring finger & palm. Tonight, I made some soup for my sister & myself. While I had the soup bowl in my left hand, she was commenting on how hot it was. I briefly got distracted while she was talking - and spilled the HOT soup on my cut up left hand!! ou: I think it spilled out about 3 separate times!! :af: We had a good chuckle about the whole thing!! :laugh:
I was making spaghetti one night. I had cooked the noodles in the microwave and was taking the bowl full of (what felt like) a million degree water and proceded to spill it on my belly. !@#$% that hurt, alot. It was like I was on fire and I had a basketball sized pink mark from it. The really gross part was a few days later I ran my fingernail over a spot and the skin just peeled right off. YECH. Tonight I was helping out with a stripped out water pump thingamajig that holds a sensor or something and I picked up the super industrial strength spotlight (that everyone has laying around, right?) and my knuckles touched the metal casing when I grabbed the metal bar/stand/handle and burned all four knuckles. ou: ou: ou:
Ken: You're killin' me! :spank: ou: We may have to get you a walker soon, I'd hate to see one of our own incapacitated from injury :moonu: Jim PS Just bustin' on ya! :Brow:
