Oh well, get ready for some ridiculous over-reaction to attempt to fix this.

Did I ever mention the paralyzed steel worker who will never walk again. I met him a decade ago. His company was fined a large sum of money because the workers were not wearing safety goggles. The problem was they fog up and then you can't see, which makes working high up on steel beams far more dangerous than without the safety goggles. Nevertheless, after the fine, they all had to wear them. 3 employees got hurt. 1 died. The company went out of business. And there you have it. The unintended consequences of good intentions. The story of our government these days.

And the water limiter on my sink faucet
Mar 27, 2015, 9:05 AM

And purchased an imported shower head....and removed the limiter on the other shower heads in my house. When you have the option of taking a 30 minute shower because the water pressure sucks, or a 10 minute shower using 3 times the water with great pressure, you use the same amount of water. If you have a 1.5 gpf toilet that takes two flushes when a 3 gallon requires one flush, you use the same amount of water.
Now in the case of toilets, they have made improvements. You can get everything down now in one flush...if you don't mind #### hanging around stuck to the sides.

some plants make you wear if you don't have steel toed shoes on...You have a higher likely hood of busting your ### trying to walk in those things than you do of something dropping on your toe.

of having a stewardess sit in for a pilot that leaves so that there is always 2 people inside the cockpit.
No need to go all hyperbole about government.

So evidently we already fixed the fix. That's good.

Put a dude in the cockpit with a gun
Mar 27, 2015, 12:16 PM
|

but if the dude with the gun is crazy then you are f-ed. Don't let the pilot go pee. Let them fight it out. If the crazy dude wins the fight you all die, if not you all live.
I'm never flying aging...
