Just figure out how many fingers that's worth before doing anything.

Jim - Always count my fingers before getting brave.

And make sure not to take a leak over the back of the boat?

Back before college, one of the shops I worked in had a condensor
charger for checking Briggs condensors. You charge it up and watch
leak down then discharge because if you didn't you get a hell of a
shock. Boss's kid always came in after school and thought he could
mess with anything he wanted, take your tools, etc. So I charged a
condensor up just before I knew he'd be there, and sat it on my steel
bench. Kid comes in, and of COURSE leans over the bench and grabs said
condensor, well, tried to. When a spark hit his hand when it was about
half an inch away, he let out a scream and hauled ass!

We had a Dr. Science type when I grew up. He made a condenser from
cardboard, wax paper, and copper if I remember correctly. He would
charge it with the transformer from his Lionel train set and bring it to
school. He could touch your leg with the thing and you would jump clean
out of your chair.

One day at a smoke out in his basement I saw him sitting across the
room. He pulled up this three foot plastic cannon and fired it right at
me. The carefully rolled garbage bag he had as a projectile came flying
out and opened like a parachute about half way across the room, right in
front of me, and lightly settled to the floor.. Frekin, blew me away...
Distilled his own petroleum and did the human blow torch thing, he could
spit a flame about 15 feet up...

Oh well, we are well into the racing season and The Mouse is just
amazing on the 250. Came in fifth over all last weekend in her first
supercross race, she loves supercross, doing it again tomorrow. Two pros
came up to us yesterday during practice and told us her improvement is
amazing, she has already dropped 20+ seconds off the long track time in
just three weeks of being back at it... I am in awe really, as are most
others. The competition stands there and watches her practice like deer
in headlights, something is clicking this season and of course the
Suspension, and engine builder have helped a bit too

Not to mention
all that time in the gym over the off season... Whooo hoo, I am looking
pretty good out there too from what I am told for a noob, can't wait
till the fall season so I can race a bit too

Two stroke baby! BWWWWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
