davebowersWe must question the mental capacity of a fellow Barth owner
I will leave it anonymous however, a well respected fellow Bartherator sent me this image of them working on their toad.
I think this has to be in the same catagory as Ron's male to male electrical cord.
You may ask what is wrong with the picture. Well anyone can tell that this truck is too heavy to pull behind a Barth Regal 454.

Well then, let me be the first to point out what is right here:
-backup emergency prop (two 2x4's instead of one)
-rear wheel chucked on down hill side
-battery charger located outside the fall-zone
-wearing welder's safety shield
-safety toe shoes
This could be the poster child for safe working practices if you look at it the right way. :-)

MaureenI received this same picture, but it was titled "why women live longer." LOL

BevBarthI received it, too, under "why women live longer." Ever notice that 99% of the "winners" of the Darwin Awards are men? Oh, sure -- women do really stupid things, too. Like locking their keys, and their babies, inside the car with the motor running. DUH! Or sucking up puddles of water with a standard vacuum cleaner (uh, yeah, paper dust bag next to an electric motor??!!)

CharlesWhere did Superman go after he raised the truck up for the guy?
Whenever I do this, I ALWAYS make sure the front wheels are pointed toward the curb in case it wants to roll, plus I locate two plastic 5-gal. buckets directly under the wheels in case the 4X4's let loose....One should also try to keep welder setting under 120 amps.......Can't be TOO careful you understand.......
At least THIS village knows exactly where to find its' idiot.......
Great pic Dave!...sent it to my Risk Mgmt folks.......
