Eeeww...

I don't think my 26 year old son would see the humor in that, he's the one that spent the night in the cab of that Brat, with his mom and grandma, 23 years ago!

 

Don't talk to me about airline etiquette . . . having my knees and ribs pummeled was a tad rude too. Plus, as big as each of those cows was, they created their own gravity field, which could have interfered with the aerodynamics of the plane, thereby endangering all of us!!! Now that's rude!

 

I go about 6'4" and 260. I'm one of those people that gets on a plane and as I go down the aisle, everyone says a silent prayer that I'm not going to be in the seat next to them...

I have no problem with the person in front of me trying to put their seat back:

I simply sit with my feet straight in front of me, and that places my knees firmly against the upright and locked tray table. There is no way in hades they are going to put that seat back more than one click.

But seriously, I question your statement. I have a real hard time believing that it's considered rude to ask someone to not inconvenience me, or make me uncomfortable. Sorry, but etiquette does not dictate that I give up the ability to breathe. If they are asleep or have an obvious reason (they need room for their oxygen tank and personal attendant to be able to intubate their tracheotomy tube, for example), I can see it...otherwise, nope.

I also do not attempt to lean my seat back for the same reason. I don't ask anyone to be any more uncomfortable than I am...

 

Never really had a bad one but had good one on the plane.
I sat next to some kid who was ****y and abrasive to me and the flight attendant. He asked if I was in Special Forces and I said, "No"; I'm not. He rolled up in a blanket and started to fart and smell the entire place up. It's OK because I'm patient and he's just a punk doing his thing. I just kept to my book and turned the vent to high. While airborne his cell phone rings and he starts talking to his girlfriend. I wait to see if he is going to stop the call but he acts like he's back on the block and keeps talking. I told him to cancel the call and he turns toward the window and keeps on talking. I reached over and snatched his phone and broke it in half. He looked at me like he was going to do something and I just smiled at him; he did nothing except look at his busted phone. He was very uncomfortable for the rest of the flight and I didn't let him order anything or go to the restroom. It was a good flight.

 

First time out with my new Raptor 700, We are out in the middle of the desert with the toybox. Feels like I am stuck a little bit, Not a problem. Hit 4x4 low and proceed to rip the water pipes out of the trailer, 100 gallons of water gone. Mama wants to go home!! What? There is no way I am going home, Not with my new Raptor!!!! We go to town about a hour away and get all the water at the little store "6 gal" Mama is pissed right from the start, She can't believe I won't take her home 4 1/2 days with no shower for anyone!! IT WAS GREAT

 

Does it count that I just got back from Key Largo and Key West FL and Tropical Storm Barry brought wind and rain and totally comitted a party foul?

 

Bad Day

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We took a trip to troyer performance 3-14-07. We had a mishap in summersville, Stopped at Mcdonalds to eat breakfast and noticed tire going flat. We had to go to citgo service station behind walmart. WAIT until they open up. The valve stem leaking. It rained all the way down which didn't help time. Quit raining when We got there Found out theres something wrong with the truck. NO POWER. To embarass to say what HP. I have to make a appointment to the local ford dealer. I'm not done yet with my mishaps. THEN on the way home,We go to mcdonalds (different mcdonalds)which they were slow as hell. After waiting inside 10 minutes we left with no food so we went to subway they had wheat bread ONLY, so we left there with no food. went back to Mcdonalds, went through the drive through. shorted us 2 dollars, and fries, and partially filled 2nd set of fries. Started to rain AGAIN all the way home 6 hrs in the rain. Not done yet. finally get home wake up this morning can't find my money which I had yetersday, Our dog decided to repell last night, got in my jean pockets and ate 40.00 (2) $20.00 bills.

 

You have to say what HP?

 

I pulled this out of my other post. Theres information on there what caused poor HP. Well it was 146RWHP with xcal2 93 perf. It was my CMRV valve or IMRC valve was not opening up. Which acts like a 4 barrel carb. but it electric motor operated. It runs 10 times better now. and pulls the camper great. I like to get it dynoed again but dyno day at troyers in June 15th, but got to work that weekend.

 

And you didnt feel it before dyno day? What is the cost for a dyno?

 

I took it to the dealer number of times and said there nothing wrong.
