I've got 4 quarts of never opened Blinker Fluid that I'll trade you for a barrel of Sailboat fuel.

Yea, I'd do that.
However, the only way I could ship this sailboat fuel is by airmail. Hopefully it does not get lost in shipping...

When I was in the AF, I worked with Aircraft Structure!! Well we always messed with new guys as ya all know!! I took a soft rivet and put it in a soft faced vise and made it square!!! Told this new troop to run down to a sub location and grab a handful, Of course when he leaves you call them and when he gets there they send him somewhere else!! so on and so on!!! I saw him about an hour later, and I'm like where are my rivets? he said I can't find any!! I said Airman Stillman, What are you gonna use to drill that square hole with? He thought for a minute and said " Sergeant Howard, You didn't say anything about drill bits, you just said to find the rivets" I almost pissed myself!! Always fun to mess with the new airmen! We'd always give them a mason jar and tell them to get an exhaust sample from one of the trucks, or to rotate the air in the tires. We actually had one guy get an exhaust sample, got him to wear a safety apron and splash shield, and had ground wire clamped to one boot, wrapped around his shoulders, and then clamped to the other boot! Safety first!

My wife is Norwegion. A good friend of hers used to visit and it was always fun to send her to town for a sky hook. Course the stores we sent her to would play along, would be about three hours before she would come back to report they just sold the last one to a Swede.

In the Army we had to always have someone to walk along while moving vehicles inside the motor pool, called a ground guide. Wish i had a dollar for every newbie who actually went to the DX when we asked them to go and get us a box of ground guides...........
On a related note, i've got a gross of Grid Squares i can let go cheap. ;D

Jeramy, that premium sailboat fuel is over rated, always has a bad odor about it.

There's plenty of sailboat fuel available in DC.....
When I was a kid in the Boy Scouts the initiation was to send the newbies out for tent stretchers, left handed monkey wrenches, etc. i was sent out for a pot of steam and was given a covered pot. I left and went to each troop, telling them what I was doing, but didn't ask for any steam. I invited the troop leaders to return with me to my camp. We all returned and when my guys saw me returning with all those people following, they busted out laughing. I handed them the pot and, they immediately dropped it, as it was heavy! Their feet were wet from the water in the pot! They said they sent me out for steam, not water. I told them the steam must have condensed back into water!
The joke was on them!

In the Navy, we sent them out for a can of relative bearing grease or a spool of pipe thread
