I remember being a kid on construction sites and a lady would walk by. Every man, from every trade and on ever floor would drop what they were doing and haul ass to the side of the building!

Maybe 100-150 men hanging off the side between the studs yelling the nastiest shit and whistling with everything they had.

It was so wrong!

Edit: I never saw my old man join in. He may have been the only man who wouldn't. He'd just stare at me, with this look on his face like he wished I had been a miscarriage.hahaha

My oldman would not have been digging the hooting at the babes either.
I think our dads understood catcall women did not get you laid:biggrin:

I construct my own out of plastic bottles and a short tube or tiny piece of pipe, the last one built less than two years ago.
I always assumed it was an 'Oat Willie Power Hitter', with 'Oat Willie' being part of the name. I do not remember ever actually reading the entire label before now. Unquestionably the best way to take a hit I have ever found.

Hahaha NOBODY was getting laid. seriously....IDK WTF their malfunction was? But it was serious.

It was like if they were lucky, the lady might be really pure of heart and they could get her to start crying!. fkn horrible!

I'd get to drink a beer after work with them though. I remember going to school in like 6th or 7th grade and look at my friends thinking they had no clue what it's like to be a man.haha

I had to hide from OSHA!

I remember turning on my B&W TV (with tubes) that had to warm up for a minute or two before a picture would appear. And...when you turned it off, set and the screen would slowly fade until it became a small white dot the eventually disappeared.

Tube testing stations were at the local grocery/drug stores and was where you got replacement tubes.

And bicycle helmets were not invented yet and all the kids rode stingrays (mine was Candied Apple Red).

Same here--old metal wheel skates + wood board = skateboard.

And, so my little sisters could have something to hold onto, an upright 2x4 in the front with an horizontal piece became a handle bar of sorts, add a basket for their dolls, and they were styling!

WHOOOA if a baby rock/pebble got under your wheel. The skateboard would come to an immediate stop--while you flew forward tumbling on the sidewalk. LOL...those were simple days back then.

Lots of kids on our block--so all moms coordinated whistle signals to call their kids home. LOL, yeah they all had those metal whistles--I still remember my signal--3 long blows. LOL. Whoot-whoot-whoot.

I saw one of those tube testers at a garage sale a couple of summers back. The man had a boat load of tubes too. Drawers packed full.
