CZickiness XXXVIII Reboot. To Honor a friend

[SarahG]

Hoooweeee. Nothing sexier than an 8", 150lb sprinkler line busting. Needless to say, it got real moist real quick.

So many jokes to be had with this one. I’ll behave.

At work......??????

We were putting in a back up pump in the basement of the Really tall building downtown and an 8" supply side line popped the bolts on the check valve. That line was charged 55 story's up from us.
It was a point of contention I had told them repeatedly and in writing this was going to happen. Man that was a lot of water.

Yes. A flange gave on an 8" mainline for the OH sprinkler system. Little over 2000gpm by my guess.

Impressive.

It took everything I had to not start on the spot. I did razz the Maintenance guy a bit.

Not sure I could find or enjoy any humor if I was the responded mechanic.

It is a good night to NOT work for the maintenance department.

They certainly earned their pay today. They got it shut off within a few minutes, so the collateral damage was minimal.

If you are ever in the sub basements of the building's downtown many of them have a fire suppression system that is a 200 HPP pump tied directly to the water main in the street. They can flood multipole floors very rapidly.

Ask me how I know....._:

OK.....I'll throw my hat into the ring..... I'm entering the weight-loss competition !
Since not all fatties are created equal, I'm proposing a *handicap* system, as below.
Spicy can add other qualifiers, as he deems valid.

1.). Over 65 = add 1% onto your final score
2.) Bald & Clean-shaven = add 1/2 of 1%
3.) Mostly Brain-dead = add 1%

.....and so on, and so forth....

Both solid plans. This actually comes at a good time since going to the doctor on Monday kind of terrified me into some better health decisions.

I dropped 5 # last week. Down to 210. Working on building some mass and endurance. Not gonna participate in the challenge but I'll add some 5.56 to the prize package.

Dead in here this morning...

Morning folks. Ordered a 3 pack of 10/22 mags from eBay this morning, best price and free shipping... Got my order of Glock mags from Greg Cote yesterday, 10mm and .22lr. Just a few more I want to add, then it’s focusing on accessories and ammo when I can find it. I’ve decided I will go down the match .22 path when some becomes available, explore that side of the hobby since it’s still the cheapest...

And diving back into leatherwork soon, need to make a western rig for the angel baby wheel gun. Haven’t decided what I’m going to call that one yet... Needs cooler grips too.

 

[JEBland]

Morning all. Preparing my now.

 

[Biggredchev]

The terrorists have been wearing me out to get Disney+ on our smart TVs.
So I just did. They will be all smiles.

If you have verizon they have a disney+ package that includes ESPN+ and hulu for $10/month. Idk if your a sports guy or not but yeah lol.

I added your name and 88 also to the list.

I'll think of a clever comeback to your "requests". But I need more coffee first.

 

[RustyHornet]

Throw my name in the hat too, DOGGMAN.

Crap. Looking at the weather, I better plan a range trip tomorrow to shoot the new CZ.

Any of y'all still planning a b-day thing (or whatever it was) to shoot multiple times in a day? Let me know if it's bringing you to HHRP.

ChrisK, check your "conversations". Can we still say PM's???

That’s the plan right now. 8am at MCFG and then noon to 1ish down at HHRP
