No, and he didn't bounce checks either. This ass munch reminded me of Ron Howard's large fore headed brother only dirtier and wore 2" thick glasses.Title: Re: remember pagers?

Another Buggy House episode Post by: Rennsurfer on May 01, 2008, 05:05:10 am Other fun pranks with him were calling from the back phone to counter phone and asking him for rings for an RX7. He'd dig feverishly through every catalog.... swearing and muttering... "why do I get all these hard phone calls....not fair!" Nice... considering a lotta old Mazda cars had NO rings, being rotary engines. HAHA!! Title: Re: remember pagers? Another Buggy House episode Post by: John Rayburn on May 04, 2008, 06:16:26 am Did this guy wear a sweater around his neck and pick up big black hookers? no he typically wore t-shirts that were probably once white, but looked like they had been used to clean a goat pen. Other fun pranks with him were calling from the back phone to counter phone and asking him for rings for an RX7. He'd dig feverishly through every catalog.... swearing and muttering... "why do I get all these hard phone calls....not fair!" One day he left an open soda can on the parts shelf behind us...unattended. bad move... (we kept a secret bottle of Fleet liquid enema in hiding just for these open cans....). Guy spent all rest of day monaing and groaning in the bathroom. Title: Re: remember pagers?

Title: Re: remember pagers? Another Buggy House episode Post by: Dave Galassi on May 14, 2008, 14:05:21 pm Uncle Jim, that's got to be one of the funniest posts ever. I'm surprised that you never charged condensers and left them in his pocket..........
I would imagine he left the job due to weight loss. Title: Re: remember pagers?

I could use that one over here at the warehouse....heheheh thanks Dave! Title: Re: remember pagers? Another Buggy House episode Post by: Dave Galassi on May 15, 2008, 15:53:48 pm Back when we had condensers in cars, my auto shop teacher in high school (Mr. Hassenplug - no kidding - had only nine fingers.........) used to do that to us as a lesson. Great teacher.
One story to let you know what he was about. One of the students, Shaun Gibbs, would literally have his Courier pickup idling, five minutes before the end of period bell, ready to beat the lunch crowd out of the parking lot. Having been warned numerous times by "Sparky" Hassenplug and not having heeded a one of them, Hassenplug sent him to the office to run an errand, five minutes before the bell. Gibbs must have broken a record, running to the office and back. When he arrived, the bell went off and he ran to his truck like LeMans.........put in the key, turned it.........WHAM!!!POP!!!!!!WHIRRRRRR>>>POP!!!!! The teacher had changed his plug wires. Lesson learned. One of his mottos..........."If you want to fight in my class, you have to fight me first!" Title: Re: remember pagers?

Title: Re: remember pagers? Another Buggy House episode Post by: Dave Galassi on May 15, 2008, 17:54:34 pm You can charge a condenser and if someone should touch the lead wire and the metal shell of the condenser (ground), they will receive a shock.
Ol' Sparky put them in our lab coat pockets. Put your hand in and ZAP! Title: Re: remember pagers? Another Buggy House episode Post by: Jim Ratto on May 15, 2008, 18:01:08 pm =
