Those "did I just see that" moments
geomartin:
One of those "did I just see that" moments I recall was during my machinist apprenticeship. The shop owners son worked at the shop doing odd jobs and clean up (He was usually completely trashed on whatever he could find to get high on). The owner asked him and one of his friends to paint the shop one week during the swing shift when it would be less distracting. To my amazement, I watched him put a chair on top of a 55 gallon drum, put the drum on a fork lift and had his buddy drive the fork lift (raising and lowering it) while he sat in the chair to reach the 25-30ft ceiling. The whole time, a couple nice roller extensions were leaning against the wall. :dizzy:

Hey, there is a difference between "junk" and "stuff". :P

Not as good as all your stories, but just yesterday a trucker was on the side of the highway with a pretty big fire underneath it, so I sped by hoping that if it explodes I don't go with it after doing a double take. There was a firetruck there blocking a lane, but they were all just looking at it like "Well, can't be helped. We showed up thats good enough. No need to try to fight this fire or anything."
