Actually , I was backing a load of lumber in and the end of a 2x4 12
feet
long pushed it over .

Amazing. I cannot even conceive of moving that far, that hard, against
something I could _feel_and_hear_ when I hit it -- even in a large pickup
truck.

Oh, well. If the con-rods are only $22 each, it can't be much of
compressor pump, anyway.

Ya know Lloyd I used to have respect for you . You weren't there , don't
know the situation or even what the compressor looks like . And yet you feel
you need to judge me - and to judge my equipment to boot ! Everyone isn't
flush enough to buy the very best of everything . I consider myself lucky to
have what I do , whether top-of-the-line or barely adequate .

Gentlemen...this all falls into the infamous "**** happens" catagory.

Everyone here...everyone...has had a similar thing happen to them at
least..at least..once in their lives.

Shrug...get over it and get on with your lives.

"The socialist movement takes great pains to circulate frequently new labels for its ideally constructed state.
Each worn-out label is replaced by another which raises hopes of an ultimate solution of the insoluble basic
problem of Socialism, until it becomes obvious that nothing has been changed but the name.
The most recent slogan is "State Capitalism."[Fascism] It is not commonly realized that this covers nothing more
than what used to be called Planned Economy and State Socialism, and that State Capitalism, Planned Economy,
and State Socialism diverge only in non-essentials from the "classic" ideal of egalitarian Socialism. - Ludwig von Mises (1922)
