[GOPisEvil]

2. Ship? Hell, I backpacked one of those bad boys across Europe!

That's a big...uh...thing...

[Magrittes Pipe]

3. Yes.

You wouldn't believe how much UPS charged for that sumbitch.

[GOPisEvil]

6. I bet they left it by the front door, too.

Right where anyone with a semi and a flatbed trailer coould make off with it. Bastards!

[Magrittes Pipe]

7. Nah, they moved it 'round back.

Smashed my Weber, too, the fuckwits.

[GOPisEvil]

8. Speaking of Weber...

...that thing would smoke a whole mess of ribs!

MMMmmmm MMMMmmm MMMmmmm! Mastadon stew!

[Richardo]

25. Yep - we're waiting on GOPisEvil for the Shiner Bock...

[GOPisEvil]

26. A Shiner for everybody!

[jukes]

11. if you filled it w gasoline

and inserted a time fuze=BP>magnesium dust>3# thermite>propylene dinitrate: you'd have one hell of a fuel/air firework!

[DS1]

12. Must be Rush's new suppository Oxy pill

[JVS]

13. Why did you need to do that? Sweet Clemente avatar, BTW.

[Richardo]

15. It's my job!

Or ONE of my jobs, to put a finer point on it.

The company I work for design and constructs air-separation plants around the world. Unfortunately, I am not getting any field trips out of it. :(

PS: Thanks for the kind word about the avatar...#21 was one of my baseball heroes...

[Endangered Specie]

14. I want one of those "oversize load" signs.

Guess where Id put it.

[TX-RAT]

16. Whats the wall thickness on that?

[Richardo]

22. You got me there...

I'm not an engineer, just a logistics ape. :)

I'm a retired Boilermaker and worked on some vessels even bigger.
