Ha, I got my mother in law on that one. It was funny to hear her ask what's a "dic-fur"? As far as an engine, go to Titan engine's web site. They have some awesome 4.7 and 5.0 stroker jeep engines with warranty and free shipping! That'll keep up with the Jones'!
"Go get me ten metres of flightline/shoreline" (Watch out - Navy Bosun's mates will bring you back the shoreline! It's a heavy-duty umbilical for when ships are in port.)
For the data centres: "While you're down in stores, can you pick up a handful of left rings?" ("Write rings" are what you put in the back of the tape spool so you can record on the tape - remove the ring to "lock" the tape into read-only.)
When I was in Tech School, we'd put new guys up on Storm Watch. The roof access wasn't locked, so it wasn't any trouble to get someone up there. The difference is that I made sure there was someone up there to be relieved (he was in on the joke) when I sent the new guy up.
For the Navy guys - "I need some relative bearing grease."
"A new case of SONAR pings" is also fun with a really new guy.
New guys in the datacentres can be sent off to get a few boxes of bytes (you do run out of those things, and have to restock if you're going to keep recording,) or you can send a guy off to Maintenance when a machine burns out for a can of "replacement blue smoke."
In the Army, it's not uncommon to send a boot Private off to find the "PRC E8" - pronounced "***** E8."
The joke? The E8 is the First Sergeant - and he can cause you much more trouble than the commander! (The PRC-whatever designation usually indicates some man-portable radio setup, so it sounds valid to the new guy.)
Having the Uniform of the Day read as "BDUs with tie" is good for a chuckle. It's better if most of the guys have camo-printed ties to wear (say you got it in Basic,) and the new guys will either chase around trying to find themselves one, or they'll fall out wearing the Class A tie (in the Air Force, that's dark blue. Sticks out all over....) Get the non-coms in on this one, and it's good for shaking up everybody.
"Wire stretchers?" Yeah - I originally heard that as "patch cord stretchers" - in the computer room at Purdue.
I'd throw the "henway" onto preflight checks (don't spell it "henweigh," that's too obvious. Spell it "henway" to mask it a bit, and either the tower can ask for it, or you can slip it onto the pilot's preflight card and he'll ask the tower.) Same sort of thing as putting a "dikfer" on any list.
I got a manager I'd worked for about eight times in a week with the same joke. She'd be going on about how things were making her mad, and I'd look right at her and say, "You know what really burns my ****?" When she'd get confused and shake her head, I'd hold my hand up about midway up my hip pocket and say "Flame about this high."
Let me close with another bad joke. "What do you call a bouncer at a gay bar?"
Lol wow at one of the stores I worked at we had rain breakers and when i was younger working at a grocery store we got told to go find the snow tires for the shopping carts.
and what do you call him
and what do you call him
Not sayin' until to-morrow - unless someone gets it right before then. Gotta let a few people guess...
Ok so I've done the looking around and decided it'll be the 4.6 off of titan engines site now since I have to bolt manifold injectors etc on anyway how much power gain would I achieve with performance injectors a header and performance exhaust cold air intake and a throttle body spacer will it be noticeable and worth it cause I figure if I have to put all that on anyway why not go one step further and put the good stuff on instead of the boring stock stuff
