Years back I did a telephone repair at a funeral home that kept going down precisely at 4:50 every single morning. Every morning. So, for about a week I showed up with test equipment to catch whatever, while another technician, George was miles down the road at another funeral home trying to capture it there as well. The owner gave us keys to let ourselves in and out. So one of the mornings I'm carrying test equipment in and have to squeeze between a gurney and the wall, and as I look down, there's clearly a body in a bag strapped down to it. Obvisously a night pickup from somewhere. I stop and look down trying to figure out which is the head, which is the feet in a dimly lit garage, but couldn't. Anyway, it took three trips back and forth to the truck to bring in stuff. I'm back in the corner, around the corner doing my thing and I heard banging around. I was the only live person in there at the time, so there shouldn't have been any banging around unless I was doing it, and I wasn't doing it. I looked around the corner and could see someone doing something at te far end along side one of the hearses, so I say "Good morning". Some guy pops his head up, looks at me but didn't see me, so he dropped his stuff and ran out the door. Turned out to be the flower guy dropping off flowers, and he had a key too. But in the dark, he heard me but didn't see me, so he dropped it and scrammed. I went back to doing my thing, and like clock work, everything crashed at 4:50, I caught it with my test equipment, so time to leave. It took three trips in, and it didn't bother me until time to leave. I made one trip out with gear tied around my head, neck, waiste, shoulders, and in my hands...and I didn't touch that gurney once on the way out, but did say "Have a good day as I passed it".
Things like that make life interesting, or we'd be bored to death. Your picture? I'm going to give it a shot. I won't credit you with it, but I'm going to give it a shot.

Today's Featured Article - Talk of the Town: What's The "Stuckest" You've Ever Been? - by Edited by Kim Pratt. Another great discussion from the Tractor Talk Discussion Forum. The discussion started out with the following post: "I was about 14 (part of the problem) when I got stuck. I was disking with a cab equipped IH 966. The window was dirty and I was driving into the evening sun. It was hard to see and it was my first pass down the field. I got the tractor so stuck that the underside of the tractor was resting on the ground. My uncle wanted
