I once sassed my mom and she said if I kept it up she'd take a belt to me. Seeing that she wasn't wearing a belt I said something along the lines "I'd like to see you" or something, so in one move she grabs my belt buckle, undoes my own belt, takes it off of me, and whips me with it. All in the blink of an eye.
 
OK folks enough with the belts. sheesh

Part Three in attempts to get back to the purpose of the thread. :rolleyes2:

Suspenders these days. If they would make odd size pants would help.
 
Did that to my boss as we were moving a pac man video to a different location away from the grocery cashier desk. Used a small bag, louder, when went to plug it back in. Told me to go home and wouldn't talk to me for a week. Ancient times.

Oh, but it is. As a teacher, I have seen what happens when children do not have consequences or their actions.

I remember when I was a high school kid back in the early 70s, all the male teachers had their own custom wood paddles, usually in the range of about 3ft long. You could hear someone getting "cracked" all through the building.

And this reminds me of a guy I used to work with. City raised had never see an electric fence and when hiking on day in some woods decided to relieve himself and see if he could hit this wire nailed to a tree. Told me he thought he was having a heart attack. As a country boy I knew what it was so had a good laugh.

That had to smart! Once when I was doing maintenance on the high voltage distribution system on the NORAD SAGE Air Defense computer I worked on, I went to make a measurement with my trusty Fluke meter to check one of the high voltage signals. I had a safety observer with me, safety boots, standing on a rubber mat and was using proper safety gloves.

As I reached into the console to place the meter’s probe on the proper spot, I suddenly felt a tremendous jolt. I thought that my safety observer had hit me upside the head with a two-by-four! Not sure to this day how I managed to get shocked with so many precautions, but I sure did get a jolt! It knocked me right onto my “fourth point of contact.”

It's been a while, so forgive me if this was already posted here...

I think this has been posted before too, but it's along the same lines.

By the way, my wife recently texted me that she had just heard Betty White had died at age 99. However, thanks to auto correct, her text didn't come out exactly as intended.
