I've been on duty for a storm where we snapped multiple lines, and had to set night riders and quadruple all lines, the sound of a 2" rope straining to the breaking point is really something.

Just seeing that photo made my stomach just start churning

As a kid I associated diesel exhaust smell with nausea since I always had to ride in that back seat of our diesel Buick and didn't know what motion sickness was. Then when I'd be somewhere else where a diesel engine was running I'd start to get an upset stomach as soon as I smelled the exhaust. It was a strange thing.

I occasionally come across particularly badly running diesel trucks and the smell of the exhausts take be back to my childhood crawling all over big passenger catamarans up and down the Great Barrier Reef.

We parted line 5 while tryin to moor in Sendai, Japan in 2007. I was on the forecastle at the time. We could clearly hear the bang then a meek voice over the radio “line five has parted.” The aft crew had to scramble to get a different mooring line out and I had to splice a new eye on what remained of five later that week.


I think goon SPACE HOMOS was on the fantail when the line parted. Thankfully it was an aramid line so there were no snapback injuries.

I can't tell the blade angle due to all the icicles, but fans running in winter drawing air up is a totally normal thing. Maybe not as fast as the one in the back was spinning, but it is Texas.

I know why young workers are the most likely to get hurt on the job. I remember when I was 16 I got a job dismantling a warehouse. They made a makeshift platform and lifted me up with a forklift to take down the metal shelving.

I ended up quitting that job after I walked in one day and they wanted to put a scissor lift on a forklift much like this pic

Your ceiling fan should have a switch on it that reverses the spin direction so that in winter the hot air that rose to the ceiling is blown back down into the living space.

I think it's pretty likely power is on at that moment, at least, given the lights are on and the farthest fan is spinning at full speed.

Wow. This is a serious blast from the past. We had the green version of that exact Dodge Monaco station wagon, right down to the fake wood stickers on the side, when I was a kid in the 70s. My brother and sister loved sitting in the far back seats; me, not so much. You can't tell from the picture, but there's a space between the back seat and the back back seat (as we would call it) that's about a foot wide and as wide as the car. It had floor carpet on it. When my brother and sister were really young, like 6-7 years old, they'd sit in that space facing each other. Seat belts? For kids? In the 70s? LOL!

You will note from the photo of the car that there are two handles on the back, one on each side of the rear opening. You can also see, more on the left of the opening than the right, that there are two places to stand, kind of protruding backward from the bumper. It was a special treat when we got home, and someone had to get out of the car and open the gate (we lived in BFE in rural Tennessee) - whoever got out of the car to open the gate got to stand on one of those things, hold the handle, and ride outside while the driver pulled up the long driveway to the house. At least we never did that on the open road!

One afternoon coming home from work, my dad was driving that monstrosity home and got absolutely creamed by a truck that rammed the back end of that thing real hard. Only the sheer weight of the Dodge Monaco saved him, along with the fact that he was wearing a seatbelt, and he walked away from the crash. That station wagon was strong enough to be driveable after that.

That station wagon was a POS in a lot of ways, but the Oldsmobile Omega X-car he bought to replace it was far, far worse.
