Confucius say..

Man who lay down woman in strawberry patch will have a** in jam

[MinnesotaFarmall]

Woman who go fishing with two men come home with red snapper......

 

Man who get on wrong elevator wrong on all levels. 

 

Wise man never play leapfrog with a unicorn. 

 

Man who go to bed with s3x on his mind wake up with solution in hand.

 

And my favorite:

 

I never said any of that $hit.

There’s basically only one thing I’ve followed is the so-called golden rule, and if you look at your lot in life it all pertains to just that and I think you can dig this just as much as I ever have.

When I was little little my old man had acquired a trade, he caught the end of the wooden boats, tugs and scow manufacturing and was a “corker”, his tools included a long headed mallet with a sliding handle and metal hand wedges that caulked a hemp fiber called oakum that was stringy and infused with pine tar, the process of filling the butted boards was called “chinking”,

Hammer the oakum between the boards with a knack of not to hard and not to loose, sometimes I think he used a linseed oil putty to cover the joints but from what I remember was the oakum and boards would seal themselves through natural setup.

You guys being farmers and ranchers know the old manner of sealing up log cabins was also called chinking, do you still call it that or has woke changed that also.

[Rawleigh99]

Snake, I still have my grandfather's caulking iron.  Here they used red lead putty to cover the oakum.  I knew the last of the caulkers around here when I worked summers in the boatyard in high school.  His nickname was "Plug".  He was an ex merchant mariner who had 4 tankers sunk out from under him on the Mermansk run during WW II.  He married a White Russian who never learned English.  Quite a character!

I wish I still had the mallet and tools, with his second marriage all his old stuff ended up spread all over with azzhat step people, his old marlin 44/40 almost ended the same way but  I got it.

Snake,

Tally Ho! Corking or caulking, depending on where you're at.

Corking

I think caulking is more modern, like I said it was after the war,  so ‘46 onward and the wording was older, if you look up corking now it takes you to sealing off wine bottles.

I know, I know. Way off topic, but caulking or corking depends on where you are from. Nothing to do with Confucious. Corking is not a lost trade, just not much demand for it in most locales. Port Townsend, WA is another story.

If you are not following Tally Ho, here's a little bit more about Pete.

Hey, Pete. What are you doing? Fast forward to 16:30. Pete doesn't have a leg to stand on!

Back to the original topic.

ironic that the use of that word in relation to armor refers to poor quality

Personally I prefer chain mail it is much easier to move in
