Hell, I remember being challenged to a fight over a CB radio.



In fairness, I was young and dumb and winding up some guy probably working for a living. he'd probably have kicked my ass.

Our company recently went live with an entirely new system for capturing and documenting all field work in our regulated industry. I drew the short straw apparently and led the initial training for the past month or so and am currently running through support for the guys during the transition.

My mind is boggled at the sheer number of individuals that can't think of what to call the floppy disk icon when it's time to save their work. "That, um, save thing!" You can't be an idiot to work in this field, but you mean to tell me you don't know what a floppy disk is??

XutvJet keeps talking about "coughing/sneezing into your hanky" and you know exactly what the F he's talking about. Even my spell check is too young to know hanky

Those are so cool. Always dreamed of riding one, when I was a kid, but there is no snow in these parts though.

We still have one up at the cabin. After the road is plowed, these things become true flyers. There is one particular run that is about 1/4 mile. Use the ATV as a chase vehicle, tie the (missing in this pic) string to the back and pull the rider back to the top of the run.

Shameful to admit I couldn't ditch mine that we purchased in the late 80's to ride as children and brought it with me to Phoenix, of all places. Just couldn't part with it, sentimental value.

I grew up at the beach so no snow for me as a kid. We had sleds with wheels called Flexy Fliers. They were totally unsafe. Leading with your head and no real braking power once you got moving. The crazy things we used to do as kids!
