Every time I get to thinking that my job sucks, I see somebody with an exponentially worse job.
Today it was two guys installing shiny bubble wrap insulation on the shop ceiling.

I'm at an age where I could get injured falling off a dime. I used to have no problem at 800' over a drop zone, but that little one man scissors lift looks like it'll fall over if you fart.

Nope, Nope, Nope!

 

George Clooney? Now I know that's AI generated.

 

Hardly. A generic adult human male.

 

Same with parts of Los Angeles and San Francisco. They make slums look good.

 

Yep, we still remember the depredations of that murderous war criminal, William T. Sherman. He should have been hung by a lynch mob.

 

A Queenslander is drinking in a West Australian Pub when he gets a call on his mobile phone, and as he listens to the call, he starts grinning from ear to ear. Then, when he disconnects, he shouts to the barman that he wants to buy everyone in the bar a drink.

The barman starts serving the drinks, and the people start to crowd around, keen to know what they are celebrating.

“Well,” he announces, “My wife’s just produced a typical Queensland baby boy weighing 25 pounds”.

Nobody can believe that any baby can weigh in at 25 pounds, but the Queenslander just shrugs, “That’s about average in Queensland. Like I said, my boy is a typical Queensland boy.”

Congratulations showered him from all around, and many exclamations of “STREWTH” and “BLOODY HELL!” were heard. One woman even fainted due to sympathy pains.

Two weeks later, the Queenslander returns to the same bar. The barman says, “You’re the father of that typical Queensland baby that weighed 25 pounds at birth, aren’t you? Everybody’s been having bets about how big he’d be in 2 weeks, we were going to call you. So - how much does he weigh now?”

The proud father answers: “17 pounds.”

The bartender is puzzled and concerned. “What happened? He weighed 25 pounds the day he was born!”

The Queensland father takes a long s-l-o-w swig from his XXXX Gold beer, wipes his lips on his shirt sleeve, leans onto the bar, and proudly says, “We had him circumcised!”

 

Don't forget Tom Terrific

 

I can actually hear the music by just looking at this. Who else hears it?

 

Urban Camouflage - a kind of antitheft device

 

In my day we had a push mower and watched Howdy Dudy with Buffalo Bob. We listened to the radio via crystal set.
We had a "42" ford truck mom and dad rode in the cab and my brothers and I rode in the back. Sometimes dad would spot something being thrown away by the neighbors and had us hop out and capture it.
We collected soda bottles on the way home from school and once a month or so we made root beer. We made our own ice cream as well using a hand crank on a wooden bucket.
We had a garden and chickens and rabbets, and butchered as needed for Sunday dinner.

 

We found an old baby carriage took the wheels off and made a push car out of scrap lumber had the front wheels pivot for steering with a rope.
