Share the Deuce Humor

Heh, I got another one too

A little bit ago, my Dad and I took the Deuce' down to the local fire hall to pickup a chicken BBQ dinner. When we park it, and get out, I notice one of the canvas bows has collapsed and the tarp we have over the rear is sagging in the middle

So, with Dad's help, I get up in the bed and start reassembling it and re-tieing every thing

WHile we're working, a kid who looked to be about, oh 8 to 10 years old, walks up to us and says

"Is that yours?" he asks excited

we tell him yeah,

"Was that a REAL army truck?" he asks even more excited

yeah, we say

"How did you get it?" he asks REALLY excited now

we bought it from them we tell him

About now, his mom catches up to him and tells him he needs to get in the car, he doesn't budge, a couple seconds later she says "Okay, I'm going back to the car and leaving, your choice"

The kid reluctantly went with her, too bad, he missed his chance for a ride

Well, the kids at school are ALWAYS asking me to bring in my truck with the transportable shelter in tow. The boys think it's really cool a teacher can own one of these things. They want to know if it was in Iraq and things like that. Some of the parents are interested too because they farm and have different purposes in mind, but she's always a kid pleaser! The kids get a big kick from seeing the truck tow the awkward looking box behind her. They want to know if the box had laser gided electronics and things like that inside. Of course the other classes get envious because they want their teacher to bring one in too. Believe me, I don't have to visit another classroom to hear about that. The teacher's lounge is always full of talk about this when I bring my "little pick-up". Even the high school students want to look. I think 'Storm is a better recruitment tool than what the recruitment office sends.

Wonderful story! I had to read it to find out you live in AZ. Could you possibly put this in your signature (found in your profile)? It would be most helpful! Thanks and keep on MVing and keep us posted on the party (I like happy (ahem, yet clean, or edited) ending!)!

DR,
Sorry. I don't know what to tell ya... everytime I pull my profile it's all right there. I filled it in after the first request to do so.

Holloween Party Update: I parked the duece about 50 yards from the party and the bleachers emptied. "Park it over here!" They made me park it right in front of the house. They knew it was coming and they saved me a spot. Cool!
The kids went nuts, as usual. Me and Bob jumped out, dressed in cammo of course, and started answering all the questions. The best reaction was Count Dracula...
"You can actually buy them things? Wow! I can't believe you can just go BUY one of them things! That's amazing!"
Ya woulda thought it was a Hellfire Missile or something.
The Soccer Mom reaction was mixed. Most of 'em just questioned me...
"Have you been drinking?"
"No."
"Are you gonna go fast?"
"No."
"Are you gonna go off-road?"
"No. Just around the block."
...but they let their kid go for a ride.
There were two holdouts. Two Moms didn't let their kids go. I felt bad for their kids, but I had all the others loaded up, so we took off.
When we got back, me and Bob spent the rest of the night shootin' babes with our rubber-band guns. It took 'em an hour to fugure out what was goin' on. It was hilarious to watch them jump and grab the spot we were shootin' 'em in, if ya know what I mean, and look around tryin' to figure it all out. Then the husbands and boyfriends jumped in the game, and it was rubber pandemonium!
We hit two parties, hauled two groups of kids, mortified the Soccer Moms, answered a thousand questions, got stared at with raised eyebrows, armed to the teeth with rubber-bands, welted the chicks, and had a blast!
Naturally, Bob "has to get one" now. (a duece)

I just got my duce today, it doesnt run so i had to tow it with a big rig + flat bed trailer which cost me an arm and a leg ($135/hour = $472). I asked my good friend yesterday if I could park my new "truck" in her backyard for awhile, she said "sure no problem" no doubt she was thinking it was a toyota or something.

My arrival was announced by the wrecker's air brakes as we stopped in front of her house, when she came outside she was like <img src="emoticons/icon_smile_jawdrop.gif" alt="Jawdrop"> "are you serious" and "your crazy man"
but after that she wouldnt stop talking about how cool it was.

 

[deuce or die]

I had driven my deuce to my friends house to help him work on one of the three M-715's in front of his house. Then two cops come around the corner and block in my deuce. I walk over to them to see what the problem is. It turns out that somebody had called me in as having a stolen military vehicle. The cops just saw the current plates and that's all the farther their investigating went. I just hope that I don't get stupid enought to actually steal one and drive across town on the busiest street.

I have a story about a 10 Tractor in Germany when I was stationes with the 16th Engr. Bn. I got assigned to this critter when I first got there, and I thought it really was a Beast. When it was first cranked up it would smoke like crazy until it got warmed up,especially worse in the winter. I took her for a test drive on the outskirts of town, so at the first red light I was in the middle lane and the exhaust pipes come straight out in front of the rear wheels. When I took off everybody on both sides got smoked out really bad, some was smoked up side the head. Man were those Germans pissed at me. I laughed all the way back, but I would have mad also if it was done to me. I didnt realize it would do that, me being a cherry and all.<img src="emoticons/icon_smile_approve.gif" alt="Approve"><img src="emoticons/icon_smile_approve.gif" alt="Approve"><img src="emoticons/icon_smile_approve.gif" alt="Approve">

Deuce or Die's story reminds me of the guy in San Diego that stole that tank......... LIke, how are the cops going to STOP you if you really wanted to make a run for it in a deuce? It'd be like that guy in Colorado who went on a rampage with a bulldozer, you basicaly have to wait for him to run out of gas........

 

[Squirtgunner]

"stolen"... That's hilarious!!!

Sorry, but I just cannot watch the guy in the tank without a huge smile on my face, a tear in my eye, and cheering loudly for him. "Mash one for the ex ol' lady! Yea! Get the Beemer! Oh that's beautiful! Yeeeeaa Baby!!! Go man, GO!!! No, Noooo!!! Not the concrete divider wall! Oh, man! Nobody gets over those! How stupid can you be! Rewind..."
The Dozer guy I heard about put a lot more thought into his work. I heard they zoned him out of business after decades of being there. A victim of corrupt local politicians, he was left with nothing, so he bought a dozer and parked it in his shop and locked the place. He then proceeded to armor it up with plate steel. When it was bulletproofed, he went ape and started mowin' stuff. Buildings and everything. Never seen a video of this one, but the imagination goes wild.
This one happened (true story) right here in town, but it never made the news...
Seems a local backhoe operator was catchin' just a little too much flak from a local snowbird. You know the type... Knows everything about everything and is a "retired contractor". They ALL are, ya know what I mean? So the guy's tryin' to dig his trench and the snowbird won't shut up, so when the operator had enough, he squashed the idiot's car with the bucket.
We all know this guy, (the operator) so I told my boss about it over coffee one morning. He runs 60 employees and has heard it all.
"Hey Greg... did ya hear about So-and-So?"
"What?"
"Well, So-and-So was diggin' a service line and some snowbird was doggin' him so hard, he went nuts and smashed the guy's car with the bucket."

a moment of silence...

"Well, all I can say is, God Bless Him! Should we take up a collection?"

Stop Sticks! Deuces don't drive good on flats!

The bulldozer and Tank reminded me of a stunt I saw. A guy took a 113 and ran over his CO's Triump,or a MG,cant remember which,one of those little cars. He ran over it several times and backed over it some, so it was good and flat. I couldnt believe my eyes, he run through a chain link fence and headed through Nuenberg. I herd he tore up a lot of stuff down town, and how they got him was he hit a hole or a big ditch and knocked his self out along with his teeth. There were MP's all over the place with LAW's rockets looking for him. The Track was brought back to the track park, and there were bullit marks all over the front,mostly around the drivers hatch where the Polizi were shooting at him. I never saw him again, He was on drugs and pissed at his CO I guess. But I dont think anything beats that Tank video in California.<img src="emoticons/icon_smile_jumpin.gif" alt="Jumpin">
