out....Was alone in the garage, and tried to get the mixture just right. Sucked a little too hard and got some in my throat, almost swallowing a gulp. Posted here afterwards to let you all know I was still alive :0) . Felt so silly calling the poison control centre.
Having my car slip off my jack as a result of using a piece of wood and a hockey puck together. While lowering the car, it slipped off the jack and the saddle dug slightly into the gas tank. Gave it some character, as I like to think of it, but boy was that ever scary. Could've done some serious serious damage; thank god the wheel was on.
While putting some oil in the cylinders this past fall, before storing my Viggen, I got in my car to use the started to turn the engine. I left it in gear and the car jolted back. IF my handbrake had not been engaged, my goodness....the luck that I've had with the stupid things I've done.
I hope I don't ever experience stupider things...I really really hope not.
Your turn, Noel!
