Me thinks this guy Jim needs a little more watching....

Had me until realized that Don's post wasn't a double-meaning, it was very singular, and the proper response!

Don't know how long it took to think this up, but still laughing at the Genius of it!

Thanks for sharing?!

Mike

My dad worked on Cobra Attack helicopters in Vietnam. He used to send 1st Lieutenants out trying to find a replacement "ASH Receiver" for their helicopters. After running around all day they would come back and say they couldn't find one. He would say "no problem we'll just take it from another bird" He would then walk over and pull the ash tray out from another helicopter. Remember this is back when people could smoke ALL the time.

As a photographer the task was to find "Focusing fluid"
When it was my turn in the Army as part of am M1 tank crew we would send people out to find find radiator fluid for the Jet turbine engine. Have them check track tension by taking two pry bars, stick them under the road wheels and jumping up and down on the handles.
We also did the "check for soft spots in the armor with a hammer" one guy said "Your pulling my leg" so we opened up the manual and showed him a picture of some one standing on top of the tank. He didn't read it, just went "OK" and started pounding away.
