The Random, Meaningless Announcements Thread 3!

[Wu Wei]

I went off to someplace in Detroit for testing & a physical before they'd ship me off to Viet Nam. (My draft lottery # was 34.) After some written tests, they announced the physical was next. I stood up, turned in my paperwork, walked out, & hitchhiked home. Lo & behold, I got a letter stating that I was "1A". I passed the physical which I skipped!

A friend of mine got into the marines...and he was blind in his right eye...they finally figured it out when he was training to use some antitank gun that could only be shot right handed..q
and he missed the tank...a few times

But instead of hide behind your keyboard and hide inside the RF, why don't you meet me outside the forum and see what happens?

Or are you scared? (Revelation 20:15)

You will lose.

 

[Vitruvian Man]

You will lose.

But I am not Charles Manson.

So the onus is on you to prove I am not the real Jesus.

Just fixed up an old Dell 2400 Dimension computer and put Lubuntu on it. Its nice. One cpu and doesn't do 3D games but otherwise good.

I wish I was tech savvy like that. I can't even get pop ups and viruses to stop invading my laptop.

Tech Savvy comes with a terrible price. You have to be cool for the rest of your life.

That is why I am so damn cool

I am beginning to hate Rosemount. Can anyone put together installation books that a tradesman can read?

They can, but they choose not to. Nowadays, all instrumentation has built in web cams so that technical writers at companies (eg, Rosemount) can laugh at techs trying to use their products based upon their manuals.
You want revenge? Lift yer kilt real quickly so that they won't have time to avert their eyes.

Engineers. They can calculate the sweat on an ants nose, but they can't read.

I've been wondering if there was some sort of sale on troll socks during this recent holiday season.

Why, yes, 4Con. I agree with you. So many troll socks out there, it seems some were made into puppets.

Wow! My 1999 truck ( bought in 1998 new) only has a little over 100K on it.

I got my 1992 car 35 years ago in 1985.

I'm 32 years old, by the way.

So go figure!

You're young for your age!

It is because I am my brother.

No. I'm not scared.

I'll just hang out here. There's so much laundry to do. Someone has to wash the socks.

If you are not born until a year from now I see no reason to answer that question
