 Topic: Never let someone borrow your tractor.....
Posted: 22 Nov 2010 at 10:06pm |

So it seems my brother took my 45 and hooked it to dad's dump trailer to help a friend move some renovation debris. Checked the fuel and it got low so he dumps in a can of two stroke gas. To salt the wound he nuked the battery cranking it trying to get it to start after. Looks like all the plugs are fouled.
I wish he would have taken dad's Deere.......

Some people should not be allowed close to machinery; much less allowed to operate it. My BIL does not take care of any of his equipment.

Seen a sign on a tractor at a show that said"Treat this tractor like you would treat my wife,Look and admire but keep your hands to your self".Words to live by.
I would add Chainsaws,Compound bows and Tents to the list of things you should never let anyone Borrow.Don't Ask LOL

Probably could'nt get that 'green 'machine running ...LOL... so he took what always runs ORANGE !!!!
PS. NEVER go 50-50 with anyone in buying an 'industrial' sized cement mixer, unless YOU want to remove 1 1/2 bags of 3 day old concrete, cause the other guy 'forgot' to dump out and clean it !!! Had time to have a few 'brown pops' though ....sigh.....

Some folks have no business handleing anything with moving parts.
I have a sledge hammer I picked up as part of a lot at a sale. It is incredibly heavy and the handle is a lenght of heavy wall pipe welded in. I wouldn't let my brother borrow it, he'd tear it up.

Some people are like Slinkies. Not really good for much of anything but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.
