A guy that I used to work with at a local manufacturing company told me that he used to work at PF Changs as a cook. He said they made their biggest profit on lettuce wraps because the meat they used was a combination left over of many types of meat.
My all time favorite engineer story in my 40 years in aerospace metrology was when they had problems with a Pratt Whitney jet engine. They had it suspended up on a dolly for a check out.
For about 3 months they couldn’t figure out what was wrong with it and tried every test known to man. They were super frustrated and scratching their heads. There were about 15 engineers standing there and the oldest guy who was around 65-70 years old just grabbed the engine with both hands and started violently shaking it. Everyone looked at him like he was crazy. During the shaking we started to hear systematic rattling. They zoned in on the sound and quickly found out that one of the pieces was not pinned in place and was loose. After all that time it only took 30 seconds to figure it out. The old guy just turned and walked away. Kind of like a mic drop moment.
many lessons learned.
Well what I would consider “Super Lines” that came out in the 90’s are much thinner diameter.
ps. Took me 2 seconds to look it up and get the material. It’s completely different than the old lines and has great benefits but IMHO the bad aspects don’t outweigh the good.
Mostly micro knots with loops that develop after casting that either wrap around guides or develop at some point down the line. And these micro knots are so tight they can’t easily picked apart. I always pull the line taught after closing the bail by hand…in case you’re wondering.
No doubt the big cities have the best restaurants. But you have to put up with so much. It’s not as easy as it used to be. I heard a guy in the radio today who grew up in the city of St. Louis and has lived there his whole life. He said he never heard a gunshot in the first 30 years of his life. He now says he hears about 300 shots per year including shots that hit his house.
Dad joke alert…
One time @Seth caught me fishing in his favorite spring hole. He was very upset and told me to leave and go fish in another underground spring hole!!
It’s ok….i knew he meant “well”!
