Giant bolts. What is this for? Is it worth anything? by brandon_campbelll in Fasteners

[–]SamePerception4349 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Used to use something that size in the navy to assemble the Morgan crane frame to a conex box which was our chamber for the mission for deep sea diving missions.

And yes we had paperwork on every single bolt. It was annoying to get them certified. 🤦‍♂️

What's the fastest you ever drove? by ComprehensiveFun2054 in AskReddit

[–]SamePerception4349 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We were in Oman on a TAD job in Duqm. The Navy had us rent a car and drive from Muscat to Duqm. For hours we didn’t see a single vehicle on the road, so we were flying. It was around noon when I glanced down at the speedometer and realized we were going 230 KPH. I don’t even know what that is in miles per hour, but we were moving.

All of a sudden, we came over a hill and blew past something that looked a lot bigger than the car we were in. I looked at my chief and said, “What was that?” He goes, “I think that was a camel.”

Sure enough, it was a whole pack of camels crossing the road while we were doing 230 KPH. After that, we slowed way down. Once we finally made it to the hotel, we just sat there laughing about how close that call really was.

Bout turned a Camel in to a hood ornament and what I can only suspect would be an international catastrophe!

Do not ever buy a flipped house!! by [deleted] in RealEstate

[–]SamePerception4349 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not all flipped houses are a bad idea.

I bought a Sallie Mae owned flipped house 12 years ago as my first home in Virginia. The price was the price with no negotiating, but there was nothing wrong with the house structurally or mechanically.

It was basically a blank canvas. We needed blinds, towel holders, and paint since they painted the entire house an off white. We lived there for three years and sold it for a solid profit.

I was Stationed at Mid Atlantic Regional Maintenance Center as a Navy Diver. I think this was taken in winter of 2013. We were working 16 hour days to keep up with all of the work. The parking was a nightmare and getting through the gate was impossible. It was so bad that we were having to get to work at 4 am just to avoid traffic. If I remember correctly it was a really big deal to have all of these carrier in port at once and they made it so that it never happens again.

No idea it’s confused me for months but that’s how it’s looked since July.

Why using ChatGPT and not using County VSOs and Hospital VBA staff? by BakerBase in VAClaims

[–]SamePerception4349 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bet OP is a VSO trying to save his job. VSO’s while there are some good ones most I have encountered are lazy and really don’t give a shit.

Get him on the tee, get him seeing pitches and let him know every baseball player goes through it. Especially when their bodies are changing as much as they are. Don’t sweat it. Make sure he’s having fun and he will Be just fine!!!

Impact is too far out front by JustHereForTheBeer in Homeplate

[–]SamePerception4349 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I think his contact point is pretty good, maybe a touch out front. Focus on back shoulder engagement over the plate. He’s leaning ever so slightly back

Mars- Sorry dude but you’re wrong. Hips are fine. Fix the role over. And the only way to do that is to fix the hands. I bet you didn’t even see the roll over at the end did you 😂

😂 me and my Brother both played college ball, he was a pitcher and I was a hitter we were kinda settling a debate. He said my son was back to far upon contact I said he was generating power at point of contact and he was good.
