Yup, had that happen many times. One guy had it happen on one of the big lifts carrying a couple of big units of lumber. The back wheels only came back to the ground after the top unit slid off the front. Once that happened the ass end came down hard enough to break some stuff in the rear axle, and I think we had to replace a couple of the bolts that held the counterweight in place. That was a noisy, scary mess.

But you are talking to a guy that once sold his new tennis shoes at a profit during a birthday party and went home barefoot when I was about 13 YO.

Good question.....actually I had bought them with my own money. I was working odd jobs around our small little town for cash when I was around that age. Mowing lawns, working on some farms, etc. Can't remember the shoe, but it was the "thing" to have back then. I had bought a pair and worn them to a friends BD party. They sold out quick and a guy there that happened to wear my size bought them from me. I was staying at my cousin's house during that weekend which was the next street over. So I walked back barefoot.

Well, I have only seen one person wearing a mask so I guess all the jackasses that bought em all wanted to make some $.
Also, I overheard a jackass older guy today complaining the gym is closed blah blah. We have bigger problems, guy. Is your IQ -44? |

On a fun note, I installed a MBC & o2 signal modifier on my MSM over the weekend & it's a whole new car. Even more fun + more powa! 9psi now. Stock ECU can't handle more than 10.5 so anymore is really futile.

Also on a car group I belong to they asked "given current situation will you still attend car events" - 307 have said yes, 82 said no, with an additional 47 people replying "hell yes!". Sadly they're probably all young and likely to survive, but I wonder how they will feel when they bring it home and kill grandma with it... |

Cars and Coffee in Austin gets pretty crowded - but it's not just staying away from people, it's not touching anything. That virus can survive 12 hours on a hard surface like a car, 1 hour on cardboard.

You are young and healthy, you'd probably end up "mildly sick" from it, recover, and you will probably be immune the next time it strikes in 10 years. I say go for it! Especially on a cruise where you're not taking it home to grandma who probably won't recover from it.

Plus grand parents have been out of the picture for at least 10 years now and with parents being 6000 miles away and lectures being online the oldest person I get to interact with nowadays is myself in the mirror |
