yah - I know us FNG's are a pain inna **** mostly, but when do we graduate from idgit status to real live, honest-to-God greasmonkeys? Curious, Chuck.
Just keep your head down and get back to work on your ride. All it takes is for one person to ruin it for all of us.
the irony of this for me is I have been building since I was thirteen.(and I have an i.c.a.r. certification to prove it!) ah well, such is life
lmao...that was good I think it's fifty...but who the hell cares. I guess I'm a grenade inspecta now...so I won't have any hands soon. Life may as well be over. Olson
AHA! 0-50 FNG 50-100 Newbie 100 - ??? Grenade inspector... Guess I'll just go off and rotate the air in my tires again.
Kinda reminds me of bein' in the Navy... there's always some mother with more stripes and less brains rubbin' yer nose in it....
don't panic, some people have all the time in the world for newsgroups, some don't, just enjoy and contribute when you feel like it. for every poster there are 10+ lurkers.
Dear Curious Chuck, Just post a bunch of smart-***ed answers (similar in nature to this one) and eventually you'll get where I am. Tee Hee- one more post and I get to be a Member!!! Come to think of it, I've been called a member before - but that wasn't quite the term she used...
If I asked pop - he'd call me a member first, then 'splain what a FNG was in black-and-frickin' white. of course, I was dammit chuck to him for the first 18 years of my life...
I was Jesus Christ for the first 18 of mine.... JESUS CHRIST - WHAT IN THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?!?!?! JESUS CHRIST - I TOLD YOU 8 TIMES TO TAKE THE DAMNED GARBAGE OUT!!!!! JESUS CHRIST, YOU'RE DRIVING ME CRAZY!!!!
Preach brother preach,People need to spend more time wrenching and less time giving a **** what people think of you.
At least your Dad HAD tools. My dad had a pocket knife, some epoxy glue, toothpicks, a claw hammer with a loose head, a rust hacksaw, stamped steel open end wrenches, and duct tape. Man, the **** he did with duct tape was unholy. I still get shivers thinkin' about it....
You just described my late father-in-law. He'd set cars on fire with paper clips, honest. Had my wife (the Peebmonster) convinced changing oil was a daylong affair, and he save the used oil for reuse in his lawnmowers. He'd also convinced my wife that lawnmowers only lasted 2-3 years, tops.
lmao at that...im 46 and havent lived at home since i was 17. if my dad is over and sees a socket on the bench he swears it must be his. hes getting senile...i lost all his **** years ago
