LOL! Holy cow! Well, the boss wanted to get all over me last night about my bad tires! I said, "You want to get on my case???? I've not had a ticket since I was 18 yrs old!"

Never been in a fist fight.

Oh sure , I jump in when there are two questions to be answered.
O.k. my answers are " last night" and " never" ..... that's right, I was shot at last night and I have never in my life , cooked.

Just Kiddin ' of course. Reverse those . Actually I cook quite frequently , as my wife works 3 evenings a week , plus I kind of enjoy cooking.

As for being shot at , it hasn't happened to me , but my retired foreman used to get threatened , every once in awhile. One of my favorite stories , was when he was helping out on a nonpay cut. They knew the guy would be stubborn and possibly beligerent , so they staked out the house, and waited until they thought they saw him leave. The foreman goes over and cuts the seal and is just ready to pull the cover off the socket , when he hears this "TAP TAP TAP " on the glass of the window , that was next to the socket. So he slowly leans over and looks , and here is the homeowner standin inside shakin his head NO , and tappin his .357 mag barrel on the glass . The foreman just nodded and slowly turned around and walked away. The manager and the foreman and the cops went back later and got everything settled .and the guy actually , always paid after that. Of course nowadays , the swat team would be called in , and there'd be federal agents swarmin the place , and armored cars and tanks and jeeps and rigs of every size, the chicken coops was full of bears and choppers filled the skies. oooops sorry got stuck in a CONVOY there.... now as for my question

WWTLT you accidentily " unleashed the beast " at work ( and no , I'm not talking about whippin out your johnson ) I mean " created a flash " .

personally I hadn't done it in probably five years, and then last week , I opened a cutout , and it went phase to phase, guess I shoulda used the loadbuster.

WWTLT you got in a fist fight. 1979, in the navy on Diego Garica

WWTLT you cooked? Last night, u-bake pizza

WWTLT......
ya got shot at as a Lineman? 1994, I took my new pole partner grouse hunting when a dope grower shot at us.

WWTLT you accidentily " unleashed the beast " at work ( and no , I'm not talking about whippin out your johnson ) I mean " created a flash " .
1997, had a transformer hit by lighting, looked it over, looked good, plugged it in, lights came on, collapsed my switch stick. And all the lights went out the oil in the transformer started to boil and make a god offal noise, O shit, opened my stick, opened the cutout and the arc held all the way open. I was about to dive in the bottom of my bucket when it went out.

WWTLT You chewed your Foremans ass?

[Koga]

and its been a while since I really cut loose. But I sure am glad Ol Bill is the kind of person he is. About 9 years ago after trudgin through the fresh plowed sugar cain fields draggin my tools from structure to structure on the transmission lines, he made mention that the contractors had our 4 wheelers for a couple of days. Now that normally wouldnt bother me. But its 98 degrees, humidity at 100% and the field is a sea of mud, south Louisiana gumbo mud that sticks to everything in 10lb chunks. We couldn't walk a straight line between stucture because of the way the irrigation ditches were dug.We had to go a 1/2 mile out or way just to get around the damn ditches. He should never had told me about where our bikes were. If a foreman ever had reason to fire my butt, he had it after I finished. I did apologize the next day.
WWTLT you worked 500 hot off a ladder ? back about 17 years ago for me.
