DNP Posted January 7, 2016 Report Posted January 7, 2016 the scuba diving is to make sure they're all still wearing their concrete shoes? Many other tommy gun collectors were fascinated by the underwater life as well. Sent plenty of scouts to check it out....never heard back from em. Must be pretty nice down there.

EngrBob Posted January 11, 2016 Report Posted January 11, 2016 Licensed pilot and certified scuba diver and still enjoy a round of golf now and then. The demands of the job leave little time for flying and scuba; however, so hunting, shooting and reloading take up most of my free time these days.
392heminut Posted January 11, 2016 Report Posted January 11, 2016 (edited) Scuba diving in El Paso? I take it you go to the Butte? Most of the time there isn't enough water in the Rio Grande to wash your feet! Edited January 11, 2016 by 392heminut

Most of the time there isn't enough water in the Rio Grande to wash your feet!Lived in Florida for more than 20-years, had a boat, and spent a great deal of time in the Keys. It made sense then.
planeflyer21 Posted January 12, 2016 Report Posted January 12, 2016 Scuba diving in El Paso? I take it you go to the Butte? Most of the time there isn't enough water in the Rio Grande to wash your feet!Those sub-border Rio Grande tunnels have to be patrolled by someone.
392heminut Posted January 12, 2016 Report Posted January 12, 2016 Those sub-border Rio Grande tunnels have to be patrolled by someone.They only dig those things in Arizona and Cali. I don't think the eastern smugglers are smart enough to figure out how to do that without it caving in on them!
Frankh252 Posted March 7, 2016 Report Posted March 7, 2016 Other hobbies, sometimes I like getting a certain kind of high lol. This is a short one. Can you see the men standing on the ground and telephone poles that look like toothpicks?

Can you see the men standing on the ground and telephone poles that look like toothpicks?I climbed a couple of Bell Microwave towers when I was a teenager and a few lookout towers on top of mountains. I got that out of my system when I was in a lookout tower and it was swaying 15 to 20 feet ,during high winds. You got big balls !
Frankh252 Posted March 7, 2016 Report Posted March 7, 2016 Ahhh, swayin' on a tower just gives me a peaceful easy feelin' even without jammin to the Eagles in the earbuds. Couldn't hit the broadside of a barn with a rifle from up there though, lol. Like trying to shoot from a bobbing boat...some got it but I ain't them
82HALO Posted March 8, 2016 Report Posted March 8, 2016 (edited) Hahaha...I jump off those things!!! What a rush! Climbed a couple big radio towers to jump off, they were putting out so much power you could feel it on your skin, felt like bugs crawling all over you! Edited March 8, 2016 by 82HALO
82HALO Posted March 8, 2016 Report Posted March 8, 2016 Since I'm here let me add a few of the things I like to do. Yes. I like to jump out of perfectly good airplanes, and off of objects! Also like to ski and scuba dive, though not much time for them anymore. I am a home theater nut, have a awesome theater in the house! Like to DIY everything, just gutted the girlfriends kitchen and hallway and upgraded everything!
sketch Posted March 8, 2016 Report Posted March 8, 2016 is that a whisky and a coke or a coke and a screwdriver ? Haha thats up there!

Climbed a couple big radio towers to jump off, they were putting out so much power you could feel it on your skin, felt like bugs crawling all over you!I asked the boss if I could rig a zip-line to "practice tower personnel rescue techniques". He saw through my ruse and said no haha
Frankh252 Posted March 9, 2016 Report Posted March 9, 2016 is that a whisky and a coke or a coke and a screwdriver ? Haha thats up there!Actually it's a number applicator for wiring but like whiskey on a tower, I never use it lol
Armed Eye Doc Posted March 9, 2016 Report Posted March 9, 2016 is that a whisky and a coke or a coke and a screwdriver ? Haha thats up there!I don't see vodka or orange juice at all.
sketch Posted March 9, 2016 Report Posted March 9, 2016 you high hangers must have some great pics for the pic of the day thread! Whiskey or not you aint gonna read about me up a tower!You guys got big kahones!
DNP Posted March 9, 2016 Report Posted March 9, 2016 Highhanger? That some sort of fancy term for sparky on a stick?
MLC Posted March 9, 2016 Report Posted March 9, 2016 My other hobbies? I am the family IT support desk, I like to lift, run and read up on current events. I used to be into NASCAR but the new rule changes this year kind of ticked me off and I'm not sure I like where it's heading anymore.
EasyEJL Posted March 9, 2016 Report Posted March 9, 2016 that needs to scroll off the page. I get nauseous just seeing the picture :D
mrmackc Posted March 9, 2016 Report Posted March 9, 2016 Actually I would hate all of those towers that have sprouted up every where in rural areas because of their side effect,or is it side affect of reaching up and plucking low flying aircraft out of their domain,, the sky, ...but I reckon that they do serve a useful service even if they look like a big old red-eyed spider when you fly over them. (IMHO)

(IMHO)It is effect. Affect is usually a verb, and effect is usually a noun. To affect something is to change or influence it, and an effect is something that happens due to a cause. When you affect something, it produces an effect.I guess one of my hobbies is closet grammar nazi. I hope typing nazi doesn't get me on a list. :)
