Well, I had the "P" part right anyway. If I recall, you're the Terminator in all the Survivor pools.

And that's what I get for listening to Nunu...

Chuck, your description of the actions of others in Panama answers a question for me. I'm in Risk Management, and I collect "non-safety" pictures, and use them as examples of what NOT to do while doing a job. I guess the guy with the left side of his pickup on rocks, blocks, and a board or 2 is one of the natives. The blocks, etc. are bad enough, but being under the truck, while using a welding rig on the gas tank just doesn't seem real bright. Even to a "neck" like me! The guy on the aluminum ladder in the middle of the swimming pool, using the drill on a light fixture might be from that part of the world, too, although he was trying to keep the extension cord out of the water.

Can I post a picture here? If not I'll post a link.

I was going to chalk it up to idiot surfers - you know, the type that can't resist the rad waves a hurricane brings in. Gnarly. But, true, third world engineering is a site to behold.

Oh, and I saw a YouTube segment on "push-button hotels", definitely a male invention. What's to keep an espousa from combing the place with an AK-47? It's just that Hispanic women understand that cheating husbands come with the territory. They get their revenge in their own crafty ways.

My sister's best friend met a man in Dallas years ago on one of those cheesy internet dating sites. So she talks my elderly mother into driving her car from Alabama to see me in Austin so she can borrow Mom's car upon arrival and drive up to Dallas to meet her paramour.

They sleep together. The guy says not to worry about the wife because she's out of town and to let herself out using the key under the mat to lock up while he heads to the office. Big mistake.

She decides this clown is a jerk and is feeling guilty. So she punishes the guy in a way men would never consider. She cleaned. She cleaned the floors. She cleaned the windows. She cleaned out the refrigerator. She washed, ironed and folded all of his clothes, not the wife's. She left telltale signs all over the house that hubby had some company. Then she locked up the house like she promised and drove back to Austin.

I think I have that turned off. If consensus here wants it, I can go into the forum settings and look into turning it on.

FWIW, YouTube videos can still be embedded using {youtube}{/youtube} (except with hard brackets, not these squirrelly ones), put the unique YouTube video ID between the tags.

I don't see any reason to turn it on.

Here you go:

I went scrolling through some pictures and this was the first one I found that's reflective of what we were talking about. I see this sort of shit every day.

Yeah, that's typical of some of the pictures I see. Here are the 2 I mentioned:

I laughed out loud at the guy fixing the car. The dude on the ladder, well, that seems pretty normal to me, actually. I mean, let's face it, he's wearing eye protection.

Speaking of ladders, I once saw a truck hauling a ladder around. It was sticking out well behind the bed of the truck. You know, OK. Then I noticed that he'd tied a red flag to the ladder. No way! I couldn't believe it. I was so surprised I almost overlooked the fact that he'd tied the flag to the middle of the ladder and not to the very end. Hey, it's a start.
