Description

When I was in the Navy, we used to get a kick out of telling new guys to go get a lightbulb repair kit. They'd grimace in confusion and walk off. When they came back saying they couldn't find any, we'd say it was right next to the "relative bearing grease". *** One photo, then two layers made in Photoshop. Lower one was brightened and the top layer erased to reveal the "light".

giggle reminds me of telling new guys in our company to go buying new red bubbles for the water-levels (since the green bubbles don't indicate correctly ;-))

Ever heard of a board stretcher? If a plank is too short send the new guy to the truck to get one! Works like a charm! :) Wicked looking image!

I love the minute details on this. Even the edges of the glass are crisp. And while you're going to the stores, get me a long weight, would you? :)
