I read all of these stories and thought this one would fit in:
In 1960 a new grocery store opened up out close to where we lived. My dad, and I later, worked a lot of years for this outfit. This store had all the newest stuff, including bottles of cooking sherry. Now, Lubbock, Texas was dry at the time. No alcohol of any kind was in stores back then. That cooking sherry just sat on the shelf and fermented I guess. Over the years it got moved around and finally was in a place on top of one of the freezer cases, still for sale but out of reach really. I was working one night heard a pop back in the store. Didn't think much about it until I heard a pair of them a couple of days later. By that time we had to find what was making the noises. Turns out that cooking sherry had finally gotten ripe and was shooting the caps off, one at a time. It was probably 7 years old, and being kinda heated on top of that freezer, made for a nice combination. Each of the caps had made a hole in the drop ceiling. As we were removing the other bottles (I think there were maybe two cases up there) half of them went off. It reminded me of the movies where the nitro-glycerin was being handled.

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
