who is going to 5A this weekend.......?

HAMMER: Originally employed as a weapon of war, and often found alongside the sickle in the club banners of countries with firm ideas on government, the hammer is now used as a kind of divining rod to locate expensive parts right beside the object you are trying to hit. Alternately the hammer (and it's larger cousin, the SledgeHammer or BFH) can be used to devise a way to get to visit that cute little nurse down at the local emergency room.

STANLEY KNIFE: Used to open and slice through the contents of the cardboard carton delivered, at great expense, to your workshop; works particularly well on boxes containing fairing panels, expensive seats and/or a lone bottle of battery acid.

ELECTRIC DRILL: Normally used for spinning steel pop rivets in their holes until the Stupidity Police come to take you away; it also works great for drilling mounting holes in custom fenders and through the new $300 rear tire.

PLIERS: Used to round off bolt heads and crush irreplaceable wiring loom connectors.

HACKSAW: One of a family of cutting tools built on the Ouija board principle. It transforms human energy into a crooked, unpredictable motion, and the more you attempt to influence its course the more erratic your destiny.

VICE-GRIPS: Used to round off bolt heads. Also used in place of a clamp to hold things in the wrong spot while you drill bolt holes. If nothing else is available, they can also be used to assist in arc-welding your metal watch band to the rear subframe.

OXY TORCH: Used almost entirely for finding various flammable objects in your garage. Also handy for firing off the two remaining explosive atoms left in that holed fuel tank you've been soaking in water for six months. Alternately can be used to set your moustache on fire while lighting cigarettes.

WHITWORTH SOCKETS: Once used for working on older British motorcycles, they are now used mainly for impersonating that metric socket you've been searching for over the last two hours. The socket you actually wanted will appear the moment you've rounded off the bolt.

DRILL PRESS: A tall upright machine useful for suddenly snatching that flat metal bar out of the bloody mess that was your hand so that it smacks you in the chest and flings your beer across the room, splattering it against that freshly painted part you were drying.

WIRE BENCH WHEEL/BUFFER: Cleans rust off old bolts and then throws them around the workshop at the speed of light miraculously smashing them straight into what ever breakable item is either the most expensive or the hardest to replace. Also removes fingerprint whorls and hard-earned guitar calluses in about the time it takes you to say, "Fuuu...!"

HYDRAULIC JACK: Used for lowering a motorcycle to the ground after you have installed your new front disk pads, trapping the jack handle firmly between the (now) dented custom fender the (now) cracked alloy wheel.

2X4 TIMBER: Used for trying to lever a motorcycle off an hydraulic jack. It is quite useful for pinching holes in oil lines during this process and concealing the fact until you have ridden 50 miles from home.

TWEEZERS: A tool for pushing 2X4 wood splinters deeper into your hand.

PHONE: A tool for renewing your medical insurance and then calling your neighbor to see if he has another hydraulic jack.

GASKET SCRAPER: Useful as a breakfast tool for spreading butter on toast; and for getting dog sh*t off your boot. Does not require washing.

BOLT AND STUD EXTRACTOR: A tool that snaps off in bolt holes and is ten times harder than any known drill bit. Always two sizes larger than the label says.

TIMING LIGHT: A stroboscopic instrument for illuminating burred screws and the futility of ever getting the timing anywhere near factory specs. Useful for sticking in your mouth late at night and permanently traumatizing any small child that mistakenly wanders into the workshop.

ENGINE HOIST: A handy tool for testing the tensile strength of the battery cables and oil lines you have forgotten to disconnect.

VERNIER CALIPER: A delicate and expensive levering tool that inexplicably always perfectly fits the minuscule gap between the engine cases and the barrels you're trying to remove.

BATTERY ELECTROLYTE TESTER: A handy tool for transferring sulfuric acid from a bike battery to the inside of your toolbox, and down the inner thigh of your new jeans, after determining that your battery is dead just as you thought.

METAL SNIPS: See hacksaw.

TROUBLE LIGHT: The mechanic's own tanning booth. Sometimes (and accurately) called a drop light, it is a good source of vitamin D, "the sunshine vitamin", which is not otherwise found under motorcycles at night. Health benefits aside, its main purpose is to consume light bulbs at about the same rate that incendiary bombs might be used during, say, the first few hours of territorial negotiations in Yugoslavia. Also useful for hooking up your kickstand directly to the national power grid.

PHILLIPS SCREWDRIVER: Normally used to stab through the foil seal of brake fluid containers and splash the contents liberally across your freshly-painted fuel tank; can also be used, as the name implies, to round off Phillips screw heads.

AIR COMPRESSOR: A machine that takes energy produced in a coal-burning power plant 200 miles away and transforms it into compressed air that travels by hose to an impact wrench that grips rusty bolts last tightened 60 years ago, by an apprentice in Milwaukee, and either rounds them off or removes the bolt head entirely depending on your perseverance.

PRY BAR: A tool used to crumple the $100 chrome surround for that clip or bracket you needed to remove in order to replace a 10 cent washer.

HOSE CUTTER: A tool used to cut hoses a half inch too short.

RAZOR KNIFE:  A tool used for scratching chrome and paint after drawing blood.

TOOL BOX: A magic contraption for storing tools that only lets you find the tool you were looking for yesterday, NEVER the one you are looking for today, unless of course you just bought another one to get the job done. If so, when you go to store the NEW one in your tool box you will find the OLD one sitting right on top like a cherry on a chocolate sundae.

CIRCUIT TESTER/OHM METER:  A tool used to short-circuit electrical parts. Sometime sending sparks into all the old oil cans sitting in the corner starting a fire that burns down your garage, your bike, your truck, your collector's edition Harley Davidson poker cards and even your Harley clock that goes "vroom vroom" every hour on the hour.  On the off chance that the fire trucks get there early enough to save the bike, you still have a shorted out electrical device that NOW has a voided warranty. I guess you'll have to go buy a new one...with your beer money. 

OPEN END WRENCH:  A tool designed to slip off of a nut once maximum force is applied so that your knucks travel at top speed when they impact sharp metal edges.  This has the added benefit of greatly increasing your ability to curse fluently.

BOX END WRENCH:  A tool that holds a bolt head tight enough that the open end wrench (above) can do it's job on the nut.

TORQUE WRENCH:  A tool that lets you know how much force it took to twist the head off of a bolt. 

PUNCH/CHISEL:  A tool designed to gently guide your fingers directly into the path of a ball-peen hammer.

Like a Heat Sucker............LOL!!!!! :R

WOW!,,,Whats the chance?

many thoughts & prayers to his familey

Just tell 'em if they get your civil rights restored, you'd be happy to do jury duty!

I think Roberge' summed it up best with his complex number theory equation on the physical properties of lumens per foot:

X to the nth degree of the nuclear co-efficient divided by the mass minus the y (mass*volume/time) all divided by 1.7312212 + p.

Of course, you probably already know this, but I figured I'd remind you guys about it.

Thanks UncleRico
I almost forgot about that...........LOL! :Wacko.gif

Round Man are you from south florida

nope,,,East central Fl,,,,By the Space center ( Titusville~Cocoa area)

For years, it has been believed that electric bulbs emit light, but recent information has proved otherwise. Electric bulbs don't emit light; they suck dark. Thus, we call these bulbs Dark Suckers. The Dark Sucker Theory and the existence of dark suckers prove that dark has mass and is heavier than light.
First, the basis of the Dark Sucker Theory is that electric bulbs suck dark. For example, take the Dark Sucker in the room you are in. There is much less dark right next to it than there is elsewhere. The larger the Dark Sucker, the greater its capacity to suck dark. Dark Suckers in the parking lot have a much greater capacity to suck dark than the ones in this room.

So with all things, Dark Suckers don't last forever. Once they are full of dark, they can no longer suck. This is proven by the dark spot on a full Dark Sucker.

A candle is a primitive Dark Sucker. A new candle has a white wick. You can see that after the first use, the wick turns black, representing all the dark that has been sucked into it. If you put a pencil next to the wick of an operating candle, it will turn black. This is because it got in the way of the dark flowing into the candle. One of the disadvantages of these primitive Dark Suckers is their limited range.

There are also portable Dark Suckers. In these, the bulbs can't handle all the dark by themselves and must be aided by a Dark Storage Unit. When the Dark Storage Unit is full, it must be either emptied or replaced before the portable Dark Sucker can operate again.

Dark has mass. When dark goes into a Dark Sucker, friction from the mass generates heat. Thus, it is not wise to touch an operating Dark Sucker. Candles present a special problem as the mass must travel into a solid wick instead of through clear glass. This generates a great amount of heat and therefore it's not wise to touch an operating candle.

Also, dark is heavier than light. If you were to swim just below the surface of the lake, you would see a lot of light. If you were to slowly swim deeper and deeper, you would notice it getting darker and darker. When you get really deep, you would be in total darkness. This is because the heavier dark sinks to the bottom of the lake and the lighter light floats at the top. The is why it is called light.

Finally, we must prove that dark is faster than light. If you were to stand in a lit room in front of a closed, dark closet, and slowly opened the closet door, you would see the light slowly enter the closet. But since dark is so fast, you would not be able to see the dark leave the closet.

Next time you see an electric bulb, remember that it is a Dark Sucker. ........

Always loking for new places to ride with the wife & kids......E me or pm me with distructions (lol) on how to get there & when ..
Thanks
