Also on the list are...street signs and beer kegs. “

Years ago, street signs were made of a good grade of aluminum, at least a 1/4" thick.

We'd consume the contents of a keg, then go out and look for street signs, with which we would fashion parts (they call them "billet", now) for our chop/bob motorcycles.

Or did we look for the street signs and then consume the contents of a keg?

Any way, street signs ain't made out of aluminum anymore and the only way to get "billet" stuff for your scoot is to shell out big bucks.

Anyone out there have a spare guardrail? lol

Fortunately, one of these never came into play, in the midst of the sign stealing, keg consuming, bob/chop motorcycle riding activities of my misspent "youth".

Got an e-mail from my brother a couple months ago, it had graphic photos of some idiot trying to cut down live power lines with bolt cutters. Two went up in a bucket lift with hazmat suits to free the charred body, two others in suits went up in a front end loader bucket to lower the body down.
