 Buzz in the Bucket - New Pix by buzzlight

Kewl pix!

Not to throw a wet blanket on things though--PLEASE---NEVER RIDE in bucket, especially children! Reminds me of how at 10-years old how I got a broken rib in my back and was bedridden for two days, as was my younger brother who was injured too. We were riding in dads old Hough front loader bucket filling potholes in the driveway when the front wheels dropped into a large hole and then came up so quickly that it bent me backward over the top of the bucket, and caught my brother across the shoulders snapping his head back. To this day-- 35 years later-- I have major back problems and arthritis, and a rib that pops from time to time with excruciating pain.

I will say it again: Never let kids or even adults ride in or on a bucket! One split second can affect a lifetime.

Dennis:
On the subject of how I am (whadeverTHATmeans)

(quote) will beat out a wheel barrel and a hand mower any day. (unquote)

I found the above in your TP intro--you know, what the WORLD sees Laughing out loud--toward the bottom.

Question: WHAT the heck is a wheel barrel--is that the precursor to the wheel BARROW--sheesh! Just some trivia--the name wheel barrow has its roots in the spanish equiv. of a wheeled donkey or burrow---hence wheel burrow or more correctly a wheel barrow.

But not a wheel barrel hahahahaha

I am jis sayin (editors note: the punctuation keys on my puter are broken)

Kewl! Can you afford me though (question mark)

Anywho...Buzz...I have ANOTHER story like your last one--and YUP I got hurt again. I was on a winter offroad trip in a state park off road area. Brought a buddy with me. Parked my truck in a deeply rutted 2-track facing down into a deep, ice-covered ravine. Seeing a photo op, I squeezed between the open truck door and the trail embankment, slid down the ravine, up the other side, and took the pix. On the way down I slid too fast, one leg ended up under me as I flopped down on it. Long story short, broke my ankle in 3 places.

And for another time... I have a story about getting my hand wrapped around the Farm-All PTO at age 14 too...
Signed,
Lefty

Kenny I reread the post about your friend lifting the girl up in the bucket. I did something similar with buddys dog. He always wants to be with me. One day I had the buddys two young girls up on my 40-foot manlift which they like--cheap thrill. They got off and the dog wanted on. He jumps on and we went up about 10 feet and he freaked out. I lowered it and he shot off. Now, when I am on it and call him he bolts the other way. My buddy must be related to the dog though. He asked me to check out his roof on the house so I raised him up about 12 feet and he started crying and says LET ME DOWN P-L-E-A-S-E! I am laughing and he is crying more, so I tell him his girls go almost 4 times that high. He was not in the mood to be impressed with his kids abilities---ROGLMAO! So, I put him down.

Franky, just so you do not have to ask a younger family member and lower your coolness factor (hahaha)--like a first-grader for example, ROGLMAO means: Rolling On the Ground Laughing My A___ Off. tehehehehe
