Alky parts story (funny)

[gofstbuick]

I have mounted all the hardware for my alky system except for a switch and wiring. I'm looking for solder-filled ring connectors. I went into the local parts house and the counterperson ask if I need any help. So I explain what I need and we begin to look at the connectors. I bend down and one of the merchandise hooks catches the edge of my pants and ripppp!!!!. Major rip on the back side of course. If my children saw this they would recite:
"I see London, I France, I see Joe's underpants." Any ways, the counter person says can I help you fix that, so I say, just hand me a couple of strips of duct tape and I'll be fine. I put the two strips of tape on the offending rip and go on my way. Actually went to two other places and never found the connectors. Now of course, I'm sitting at my desk waiting to go home. I called the wife to tell her this story and she was laughing so hard, there were tears in her eyes. Needless to say, I'll probably return to that parts store if I need parts next time.

I hope this story made you laugh (cause I'm sure laughing) and have a nice weekend

That sucks!!!!

Since we are on the subject of funny incidents of ripped clothes. I have a quick story.

I work in 4 level office building. My company takes up the whole thing. I work in the mail room and at the time I had one of my friends working there also. He is not just an ordinary friend, he's huge. He is 6'11" and probably almost 300 pounds. He's well proportioned. Well it just so happened that one day he was picking up a box from the ground for some lady on the 3rd floor. He knelt down ( putting one leg out in front of the other, because when your that tall it is kinda hard to kneel down like the rest of us), and right as he knelt down he split his pants right at the crotch. He had to come all the way back down stairs to the mailroom, where my boss ( who is also a good friend of mine ) and I started laughing very hard. We gave him such a hard time. And the worst part of it all, he didn't get to go home and change. I ended up getting stuck doing the rest of the work so he wouldn't be embarassed. Oh well, it was worth it.
