My dad cursing
My dad set out to put power steering in his truck about 1990 BC "Before Computers" Did all his homework found a donor truck for everything he needed. Started to put it all together Low and behold the gearbox did not fit. He did not retrieve the powersteering engine perch of the donor. So while cursing he took his grinder and climbed into the engine bay and started grinding the engine perch till the gearbox fit Cursing the whole time. Today I replaced the perch with the correct one and I could still hear him cursing. I'm going to hang this in my garage just for him.

That is so great

Re: My dad cursing
That is AWESOME.
Out of order, I show you out of order. You don't know what out of order is, Mr. Trask. I'd show you, but I'm too old, I'm too tired, I'm too [censored]' blind. If I were the man I was five years ago, I'd take a FLAMETHROWER to this place! Out of order? Who the hell do you think you're talkin' to? I've been around, you know?..And Harry, Jimmy, Trent, wherever you are out there, [censored] YOU TOO! - Lt Col. Frank Slade
