Funny Shop Stories....
« on: December 20, 2011, 07:31:36 pm »
Here's my latest:

Last night while pondering on an upcoming race and alot of idea trading, a friend decides my shop was way warmer than his house so he 'hung out'. No problem. The next morning I went out to warm up the fire and noticed a strange stain on it,he explains " I got hungry so I heated up some of the KFC from the fridge", again No problem. The next afternoon he left and I checked the fridge, and no beer...No problem...
After telling my wife this story she told me " That chicken in the back had to be left over from your last race 2 months ago"
He is still alive and well today...NO PROBLEM...

KFC must have some kick-grass preservatives!

On a typical friday night in my shop, 77% of all statistics given are made up on the spot, and a minimum of 35 minutes total are spent looking for the 9/16" wrench someone just had in their hand.

Me and my brother in law won't eat all day when we go out for wings. 50-75 wings die those days. Then we are miserable......

OK...so not really a shop story, but.....

A buddy shows me his new Cell phone, built in Ebay app thingy.
SOOOO I check my Ebay....I have an "EBAY ALERT:omg: :omg: :omg:

"Watched Item ending soon"

Ohh dang...what am I missing ?

"1960 Wheel Horse Suburban 550 " (Yep, I play with little red tractors)

I have been watching this little tractor close to me, now it has 4 hrs left and it is currently at......$25  :omg: :omg: :omg: :omg: :woo: :woo: :woo: :woo:

Of Course I quickly put a bid in, and 4 hours later.....I WIN!! YAY!! :3gears: :dance: :dancing: :pffftt: :rocknana:

Then I get to a computer.......guess what....

The phone had truncated the title....it was a "1960 Wheel Horse Suburban 550/400 HOOD

Ohh, crap...that was that piece of junk thing I was watching JUST in case it went for like $5 or sumpthin.....

Half the Grill is rusted plum off, big holes in it where someone mounted something to it, dented,twisted Not much good at all.
But I am the Proud new owner of it! For only $50!

 I had a hard time recalling any hilarious shop stories. I do remember one day when I was a teenager I accidentally left the chuck in Dad's drill press, turned it on, and later found the chuck stuck in the wall. Guess that was more stupid than funny.

 As far as chicken wings, well I much rather prefer fried chicken. I could eat buckets of that stuff all day. That and some mashed taters, fried okra, and biscuits. Then again if I did that I'd weigh 500 pounds.
