'Jackass' picture of me today

[kx250rider]

I couldn't resist taking this pic. One of my hobbies is collecting Cold War era air raid sirens, and I belong to a couple of boards for siren collectors. One of the biggest things they all complain and moan about, is how nobody can manage to move one of these things without a shop crane.

So being the Irish showoff I am, I grabbed this 500-lb Federal SD-10 siren out of the truck, and posed holding it . Let the truth be known; I didn't even TRY to put it on the ground. I just lifted it from hip level, took a few steps back, and then returned it to the bed of the truck.

I'll have to figure out how to put it down first, LOL... Definitely the 43-year-old body is telling me this morning that I need to think carefully about those stunts.

I remember when I was 17 or 18, and did a stunt like that with a TV studio monitor, which weighed over 400 lbs. I didn't really lift it though. I rocked it back onto my knees, and it looked like a lift. This siren was real weight; all resting on the spine

Thanks! I hope I can keep up the work, and not do something so dumb as to regret it...
