G'day,

Awhile back KenH put together a few GMC tool pictures challenging people to identify them.

I would like to challenge the group to identify what caused the injury pictured below:

It was caused by Double Trouble.

Regards,
Rob M.

That's not an injury Rob. That's called a foot, and you should have at
least two of them. If they do not look alike, you know what you have to do
to remedy that situation.

G'day,

You're half way there! Onan is correct, now figger out HOW the Onan caused the injury!

Fosters - YUK - in the USA it's Corona with a lime and in Australia it's Toohey's New.

Ragusa step - nah, I ripped that sucker off two days after I installed it - forgot to fold it up and tore it off on a railroad tie
at a RV park.

I do have another one but it doesn't look like this one exactly, I really don't want two left feet! ;-)

Regards,
Rob M.

Looks like an Onan muffler burn while sitting on the ground next to it
with your leg under the onan! I bet that you have several of those
off your motorcycle exhaust pipes in the past on your legs.

JR,

You're close enough to win the contest!

Actually that's what the flames from a backfire out the Onan tailpipe does to a leg.

It's been four or five days since the Onan "bit" me, it looked worse the day after. Was surprised that it didn't really hurt.

Yes, I have a number of "kisses" from my Harley's muffler!

Regards,
Rob M.

when I was younger and road dirt bikes for fun.

Corona?  Frgoshsakes, pour that back in the horse, along with the Foster's.  You can do way better, try some of the craft beer and fnd one you like.
And it looks like you leaned against the muffler or exhaust pi[pe with your ankle.  Looks like the standard Scooter Mark we used to get riding Jap cycles.

I lived in Australia (Sydney area) for a couple years, and in that entire time I think I saw ONE Aussie actually drink a Fosters. They have a veritable universe of outstanding beers that made every pub visit a treat. OTOH, the yuppies in the hippest bars tended to drink Budweiser. Go figger... not that it's a bad beer, but paying a premium for an "imported beer" when the local stuff is so good is a little like Jesse James' (motorcycle builder) well-publicized taste in women.

Well, to top that off, the 'imported' Fosters here is in fact imported.  From Canada, where it's brewed.  Now personally, I think Kosmos Spoetzl should be cannonized for come to the US and bringing the recipes they use for Shiner.

Mexicans don't drink Corona.
Aussies don't drink Foster's
Canucks don't drink Labatts
Out here on the Island we have many small breweries and all their beer is very good.
I don't drink Lager, I prefer ale.
Anyone that drinks "lite" beer, is "lite" in the loafers.
