The Elsmar Cove "Humour Thread" - CAUTION - 'Big Kid' Content

I doubt there are many people on the planet who could throw this monster. I can barely pick it up off the floor and I'm a fairly large guy (6'3" 255 lbs.) who has been hauling musical gear around for years. (There's another tip for you guys who spend a lot of time in bars - never arm-wrestle a roadie for money!)

You can, however, use large amps for beer can races: you place the empty beer can its side in front of the amp and start playing... the first can to the opposite wall wins!

Playing with the resque equipment

Not an aviation joke, but... well, close:

Parachutes are for sissys... Why?

In fact, bailing out without one would be a boost to your health. Let's say you leave an aircraft at 10000'... Maybe you're not feeling all that well.

Well, on the way down you get lots and lots of lovley fresh air, right? Thus, by the time you've fallen 9999' you should be brimming with health, really feeling on top of the world.

Now then.. Being in such great shape, surely you'll be able to drop 1' without any ill effects?:ko:

Musicians and Engineers

Has anyone besides me noticed the unusually high number of musicians in employed in technical and scientific fields?
During my grad work in psyc (the ones that go into the field are the ones that need it the most!) we did a study on 3 dimentional visualization. You know the boxes that you have to fold in your head. We broke the results down by sex, race, occupation, etc. It was very interesting to see that engineers and musicians scored about the same. Both were well ahead of the other occupational groups (men did score better than women - must be the appreciation of the shapes and curves thing:p ). We believed it was due to the music chords, you hear in 3D and it seems that the mind can evaluate the harmony. With the harmony and chords being processed it seems that the visual manipulation of the flat box into a 3 dimensional object was easier.

This has nothing to do with it, but here is a pearl I got from my brother and decided I just had to share.

Thanks Silbil. That was great. I suspect that with this bunch we'll have some more ideas to add to the list before long.

Diet? Exercise? Are you sure you're a Quality Control professional?

Dunno about the diet, but the exercise sure can be a good stress reliever!!
