Messiest things you've tried

[snkellis]

This one from today, tops my list. I enlisted the help of my 14 year old daughter...

Two balloons, one filled with 3/4 of the way with water, the other just 3/4 with air. Jumbo straw....

Connecting two balloons to each end of straw, while filled... Is very messy... Sealing them air right... Messier.

Well... As I suspected the water rose up the straw... But didnt enter the air baloon. What I didn't expect was the deflation of the water balloon as I raised it. Eventually it held nothing but air... But it was barely expanded. Cleaning the floor before the wife got home... Not fun.

LOL

You have to put a clip of a form around each end of the balloon to keep it from expanding and you should of used something stronger than a straw. Over the years I have worked with many pipe fitting, fuel lines. and gas lines. Where your connections are have to be solid and sealed properly. Forgetting to tighten a clap on a fuel line from the pump would have been my messiest. It only takes a small distraction to get even those who are experienced. LOL

Aw, that's nothing but is fun.

For me own part, if I were to describe some of the messiest things I've attempted (with extremely varying results) I WOULD be excommunicated from this site and PRONTO so, I'll resist the extreme temptation to.

CHEERS!

We share the same last name, but if there is any relation, it's unknown to me.

The messiest wheel was one I had running approximately 60 RPM with a tapping sound and I pulled the small stand to be wider and I found the tapping sound as my thumb splattered between the weight and the stand. Fortunately it was only my thumb nail ripping off my hand. What was wearied was I laughed for it had been running for several minutes. It stopped for it broke at impact as well. This does not say it is a true runner at this time either.

P.S. Hopefully Scott don't take the name wrong for it could also mean sneak, snack, snoop, and there are many more but in a movie there was a Snake Pliskan in escape from New York. Kinda cool.

Ouch!

That's why I work with pennies, popsicle sticks and poster board. Of course, I'm such a klutz that I still have to worry about paper cuts and drilling holes through my fingers. Oh, and getting my hair ripped out by the drill press.

[snkellis]

No worries, it's not for snake, it's Steve n K Ellis... As in my better half. The one who puts up with all my pm nonsense, and listens to me babble incoherently for hours on end saying yes dear when it's appropriate.

[AB Hammer]

WOW!! LOL You learned the two words that makes a good relationship to. (Yes Dear)

Nice knowing you Steven K Ellis. Again Welcome

[primemignonite]

Ok, got it here too.

"Steven K. Ellis"

Won't forget.

When you get to pushing 71, S.K.E., the old vision starts to get less than perfect, and thus the mis-snaking thing.

I'll not be making that little faux pas again.

==========================================================================================

A.B. I thought there was way-more to it than just as you recited.

The version I know goes

"Yes, dear."

"As you say, dear."

"Just as you say, dear."

"Whatever you say, dear."

"Whatever you want, dear."

"However much it costs, dear"

"Wherever you would like to go, dear."

"However you would like it, dear."

Of course there are many more provisions of The Gelded Slaves' Profession To Love but, I think we get the general idea
which is summed within The Blood Oath of Fealty . . .

I, mere-man am slave, you Womb-Man are Master. 'Till the end of time your merest whispered wish is to be MY COMMAND!!!"

And so, there 'tiz, as the Austrian Emperor exclaimed to a shocked, stultified Salieri.

So, get to it mere-men: Her footsteps do now approach ; the sweating begins ; down into supplication position! (This would be as in bent-over or, bowed.)

CHEERS!
