Does it say anything about drinking loads of Jack Daniels and falling over?

Hah! Handyman where I work put a ladder on top of a shaky scaffold and
(unfortunately) fell on his head. Now the president calls me periodically
when this guy is planning another big repair job and asks me to supervise
him. Lead EE and maintenance supervisor.... Ain't it great working for a
small company?
Plant was complaining that there was poor heat coming from the hydronic
heat system. After much fussing about by the maintenance guy, I happened to
notice the Bell and Gossett circulator pump had sheared its couplings. We
had a higher capacity maintenance free pump on hand and I suggested that he
swap it out. I shut down the boiler shut off valves to isolate the pump and
put a drain hose on the boiler. Unfortunately he kicked the hose and kinked
it so system did not release all pressure. I had him change out the sticking
air vent first (luckily) because he just removed the valve, not anticipating
any pressure behind it. A stream of hot water sprayed all over the area. No
injuries but it was hard to move away fast in the crawl space where this
was. Rest of job was uneventful as I took a more active part in the work...

The biggest danger during the Christmas season is drivers hurrying

I love to cook with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food.

I do notice that conspicuous by its absence is plain ol' stupidity.

Cheers!

When I was at the U of Minnesota, one of my neighbors in the dorm was
a Jewish guy, who arranged a string of lights in his window to spell
"SEX."

I'm sure we've all seen that pic of the garish opulent Xmas display
with the neighbor's lights arranged to spell "DITTO."

Couple of bottles of JD & a few cases of strong ale and I'm all set.

I wonder how many millions of confiscated taxpayer FRNs they threw
away on this? Each and every one of these has been common sense since
there have been Solstice trees!

Thanks,
