Thats funny.

About 15 years ago I had a job to install a telephone on a ward of a mental institution. Had to drill down a 1/2" hole through the concrete floor into a long crawl space to pull a new 25 pair cable. I got down there and wasn't happy because it was a couple hundred feet long, low crawl space, on my hands and knees with a flashlight, and a coon or two lived down there as well. I wasn't happy about that job. So, I locate my hole, and shove up about 10' or so of cable, then slowly work my way back out, tie wrapping my cable to the floor joices, and the all of the way out without running into or angering a coon. Smooth!!! Nope, not at all. I go back into the ward to terminate my cable and hook up the phone, but the cable is not there, and there is nothing but the hole that I shoved it up out of. What the heck, I ask out loud, scratching my head. There were these two mentally challenged guys, inmates, patients, standing right there, and one is hugging and holding the other one to protect him and says to me, "Mikey is afraid of snakes, but I'm not and shoved him back into his hole". I went to find a nurse to lockup Mikey and the other guy, and back into the hole for me to push the snake bacup and out.

If life were perfect, it would be pretty boring.

Today's Featured Article - The Nuts and Bolts of Fasteners - Part 2 - by Curtis Von Fange. In our previous article we discussed capscrews, bolts, and nuts along with their relative hardness and thread sizes. In this segment we will finish up on our fasteners and then work with ways to keep them from loosening up in the field. Capscrews, bolts and nuts are not the only means of holding two parts together. When dealing with thinner metals like sheet tin, a long bolt and ... [Read Article]
