If I was to post mine Starr the thread would be closed :D
So Iam trying to think of another.
Merry Christmas Vic..

[travis_cornell]

ok here is an embarrasing story. It isn't mine but is funny and this looks like a good spot to share it.

About 2 weeks ago, I was looking around the Web for the
BIGGEST sky rocket that I could get shipped to me via
common freight carrier. I located a fireworks importer in
Wisconsin who had this mondo sky rocket-biggest thing I had
ever seen-called a SkyDragon. These things are 48 inches
tall and are mounted on a 1/2-inch wooden dowel. Pure
aerospace engineering. I plopped down a bunch of money and
had him send me two cases of these things. They arrived at
the freight dock a few days ago and I had to drive the van
over to pick them up. Two boxes each 2 feet by 2 feet by 4
feet in size containing 80 rockets each. The 'Class 4
Explosives' sticker on the side of each box was a real
bonus. I am gonna have to save them for the scrapbook.

That night, me and the kiddos had a gen-u-ine rocket launch
ceremony. I placed one of these beauties in a liter-size
glass bottle and the bottle fell over. Hmmmm-this thing was
waaay to big. I looked around the shop for a pipe to set it
in, but realized that the only dirt I could drive the pipe
into was in plain sight of my neighbor's house. I knew he
was a cool guy, but I didn't want him to call the cops. You
see- 'projectile-type' fireworks are totally illegal in this
county. I was surprised that the Buncombe County Sheriff
Department wasn't waiting for me at the loading dock when I
picked these things up. Anyhow, I finally rigged a launch
pad by prying up one of the driveway drain grates with a
crowbar and sitting the stick into the deep pit. Looked
sorta like an ICBM silo with its hardened lid slid aside
I asked which of my three kids wanted to light the fuse, but
all took a few steps back and politely declined.
Chickensh**s. Kids just aren't made the same nowadays. They
fulfill their danger quotient by shooting bad guys in video
games. About as far from real danger as you can get, if you
ask me.
I told the little weenies to stand back as I bent to light
the device with a Bic lighter. The lady at the fireworks importer promised me that these things would NOT make any noise. I told her that they HAD to be relatively quiet so I could shoot them off in my neighborhood without causing 'undue alarm'. She said I wouldn't have any problem. I emphasized the particular legal problems I would have if there were any type of loud report at apogee. I emphasized the fact that I lived right next to a National Park and that any type of firework that was discharged or assumed to be discharged on that property would get me sent before a FEDERAL judge right before I got sent to the COUNTY judge. She again assured me I would have no problem.

That lying b****.

That rocket engine had a burn time about as long as any I had EVER seen, and the ascent echoed off the surrounding trees. Diamond shock pattern extended from the back end. It
kept going and going and going. When it hit apogee at about
1000 feet, the rocket disintegrated into a huge shower of
silent red sparks. Pretty cool, I thought......until the
shower of sparks burned out and suddenly transformed into a
cloud of extremely bright and loud explosions.
The kids scrambled into the back door 'Three Stooges' style
(i.e.: where all three try to get through the same closed
door at once) and left me standing in the smoking haze
waiting for the cops to arrive. The dogs that live along our
street were all barking their heads off at the apparition
they had just witnessed in the night sky. That ended the
fireworks test for the night.

The next day, my oldest son Danny and I decided we were
gonna 'neuter' one of the rockets so it wouldn't make any
noise. I took him into the closet where I store the
gardening tools and he saw these two huge cases of fireworks
standing there. The kid went nuts. He wanted to open BOTH
boxes so he could see what all 159 rockets looked like lined up next to each other. This kid has promise. I told him: "Since mom only thinks I have a few of these things lying around, maybe that wasn't such a good idea." He mulled that over for a few seconds, then gave me a real big smile in agreement.
We pulled one of the rockets out of the box and re-locked
the closet door. He and I both sat down on the driveway and
proceeded to take it apart. It was a standard issue big-ass
Chinese sky rocket. I bet they used these to kill people 500
years ago. As I sat there taking layer after layer of paper
off, his brain was filling with the details of construction.
Tissue, cardboard, plastic, fuses...etc. Realizing that he
was mentally storing the design for some future project
sorta made me shudder. All I was thinking was the fact that
this thing was probably put together by a political prisoner
in a hellhole somewhere who is probably gonna get 'executed'
so they can sell his internal organs on the transplant market. Probably not too far from the facts, but I managed to do a bit of explaining to him from the standpoint of aerospace engineering regarding how the thing worked. Danny is probably the only 4th grader in the U.S. who can now
describe the principle of thrust using a control volume
model. The rocket was pretty simple. It had a very large
booster engine topped with a warhead that contained the red
sparkly things that exploded. Removing the warhead was as
simple as giving a quick twist, and I assumed the neutered
rocket would fly higher without the payload. I was correct.
Danny and I did a daylight 'stealth' test and were able to
add about 50% to the altitude attained the previous night.
We decided to modify four more rockets and put them aside in the closet for easy access. When this was done, Danny had a jar full of stuff that came out of the warheads including12 fuses about 3-inches long each, some paper, 4 plastic nosecones and a big handful of these little black balls about the size of 12-gauge buckshot that turned out to be the 'red sparkly popper things'.
It appeared that the outer layer was a simple gunpowder
coating designed to quickly burn off as red shower of
sparks. I surmised that the inner core had some kind of
magnesium thermite that gave off an intense white light and
a loud bang. Pretty cool if you ask me. Lots of energy
packed into one teeny little ball. I didn't want to see the
popper thingies go to waste, so I told Danny we were gonna
put them in a hole in the ground and set them off. He gave
me another big smile. It's amazing how kids think alike...even when separated by 30 years. As I was digging a shallow hole with my hand, Danny asked if it would be alright to put an army man next to these things so that "When they go off, it would look like he was getting shot with a machine gun". Dang....exactly what I was
thinking. I agreed and he ran off to his room to dig
something out of the mess. He returned in about 3 seconds,
out of breath and holding a cheap plastic imitation of
Robert E. Lee on horseback and a Civil War cannon. I pointed
out that they didn't have true machine guns in the Civil
War, but we would overlook this for the purpose of the
demonstration. He handed me the action figure and I placed
it and the cannon next to a rather large pile of black beads
from which a few of the fuses extended.
I figured that three inches of fuse would take 2 seconds to
burn, so I had at least that amount of time to stand up and
take a few steps back. I neglected to recount the night
before.....when the warhead ignited IMMEDIATELY upon
reaching apogee. Tricky Chinese. They had installed
extremely fast-burning fuse in these things and that fact
totally slipped by me. I squatted next to Robert Lee and
gave a short eulogy. Danny laughed. I took the trusty Bic
lighter and placed it next to the fuse. One flick got the
lighter going and THIS IMAGE IS ONE I WILL REMEMBER FOR A
LONG TIME. My hand holding a lighter next to a pile of
explosives. There is usually a short but noticeable mental
pause that occurs immediately before something bad or really
stupid happens. It is where that little voice in your head
says: "You dumb ass." The fuse burn time was in the
1/1000ths of a second range. The pile of little popper
thingy's immediately ignited into a tremendously brilliant
ball of fire. All I could think was "...th....th.....thermite..." Unfortunately, when they are viewed at ground level, these little popper thingies
become REALLY BIG POPPER THINGIES and have a tendency to
jump up to 15-feet in every direction from their point of
ignition. I instantaneously became engulfed in a ball of
fire that sounded a lot like being in a half-done bag of
Orville Redenbacher's popcorn.

It was all over about as fast as I could can snap my finger.

After the smoke cleared, Danny started laughing his butt
off. That meant I was still in one piece. Danny does not
laugh at dismembered limbs. He said I jumped about 10-feet,
an action that I do not remember. I checked my clothes for
burn marks, and found none. He checked my back to make sure it was not on fire. No combustion there. The driveway was peppered with black holes where the concrete had been
scarred from these things.
A close one. Another REAL close one. My mind ran the tapes
again to re-hash what it had seen. All I remembered was
being inside something akin to a 30-foot diameter
........flaming dandelion. Whew. We examined Ol' Robert E.
at ground-zero. Instead of a machine-gun peppering, he got
nuked. He and the horse he rode in on.......and his cannon
too. One side was untouched, but the other side was
arc-welded. Real warfare. Dany examined it real quiet-like
and then started laughing again.
I assume he will remember the finer points of the lesson as
he grows older. When I now speak of 'being burned beyond
recognition' he will have a slightly better understanding of
what I mean. I hope that this vivid image tempers the
knowledge he now has regarding rocket construction. Oh well.
After all, if your dad isn't gonna teach you how to get your
ass blown off, who will?

[ypguy]

Cellular,

You are correct(another embarrassing moment)I was pokeing fun at the guys that blasted the questions and comments about the HU hack. Actual I found a thread we both posted in
and here our your words and mine.

Cellular Qoute:
"Ever wonder why only Newby's seem to know about these great HU products? Ever wonder Why only Newby's are posting great testimonials about HU hack? Ever wonder Why this guys post is still here and not deleted? "

YP Qoute:
"Rise should just ban any HU chat .. as soon as a question or comment is made. bash, bash... I've never seen an HU post yet that didn't get wiped out with junk. We all know the risks thats been said atleast 1 million times.

I say if you have a few bucks and want to play, then get in the game and play. What is the worst...You're lose some $$$.. good or bad just keep posting....."

http://www.dsschat.com/forum/showthread.php?threadid=41801


I guess Newby's in your words should be deleted and have no opinion on the Hu hack. Or do you suggest PD just delete all thier posts. Maybe, just maybe, this is exactely why elder members keep quite to avoid being punished for being forward thinking.

I go back to this thread: embarrassing monents...maybe you get it now.

I'm glad we are in the BS(Bull Shxx) forum.

I went to a topless bar with my buddy Jerry. Jerry is short, like me, but has all the proper tattoos and big muscles to match. Anyhow we sat in the back, and had a few drinks while waiting for a seat to open on the runway. I was really getting into drooling over the girls, but, this loud mouth, sitting by the runway, kept ruining my concentration with his yelling. I finally had enough and told Jerry that I was going over to talk to him. Jerry warned me to stay put, but, my beer muscles were kicking in and I was getting taller and stronger, by the minute.

I went over to this guy and stood beside him, he was taller than me while he was sitting, but, that didn’t stop me. I asked him to tone it down, told him that he was ruining my concentration. This guy was huge, had hands bigger than half of me, his voice was deeper and louder than a train. Within 3 seconds of me warning him, he took his hand, put it around my neck and lifted me onto his lap. Thank God most of the others on the ramp were busy watching the girls. This guy bounced me on his lap for a while, holding me tight so I couldn’t get away. Jerry saw something from the other side of the room and came over to help. Jerry in his low voice, said “Al is there something wrong” heck I was being bounced on this guy’s knee, was Jerry blind? I told Jerry that everything was fine, I didn’t want us both to get killed. Jerry walked away, he was probably as scared as me.

After about 10 minutes of this embarrassment, I finally had enough. I leaned over to this guy’s ear and told him “ya know, I’m getting tired of this ride on your knee, If you don’t let me go, I’m going to kick the crap out of you in front of all these people” He laughed, then let me go, put me back on my feet, stood up and shook my hand. He was over 6'5" and built like a giant. Anyhow, he pushed the guy off the stool next to him, asked me to sit down and bought me a beer. My new instant buddy, right?

What a way to get a seat on the runway at a topless joint, us short guys will do almost anything. LOL

PS.. I left after guzzling the beer and went back to sit with Jerry, we both breathed a sigh of relief. Me and my big mouth has always got my friends and I into highschool fights, but, never before had this happened as adults. I prayed myself to sleep that night.

Ok I am having an embarrassing moment right now. maybe you all can help me. I trade tv for getting my hair done. I cloned the exact same image that is on my card onto my hairdressers. Hers keeps going out and saying "this card is no longer valid. Now remember this is the same image as mine and when I bring her card back and put it in my IRD it works fine. The only problem that I can think of is maybe there is some kinda lose wiring some where. Could that cause this problem???? I even let her take one of my extra IRDs to her house and the same thing happened. I guess it's important to say that I didn't change out the connections just the boxes. It worked for about 2 min's then gave the same message..Help!!!!!!! If it was just going down then you would still get channel 100 but that doesn't even come in. It's got to be some faulty something right?

Starr xoxoxoxox

PS. As for my most embarrassing moment I will give you some clues. It involved: a museum, a chair, a camera, a mess, and a nationally known magazine. You figure it out.

[cooperhillgirl]

Starr.
Does this card have Aktivator63 on it? Did you put it in your ird first? If so it sounds like it married your ird. Unmarry it in basicH, reboot "hairdressers" ird and try it then...

Another option could be does "hairdresser" have a plus reciever that has taken a firmware update??? Hope not...

Only other thing I can think of is make sure your tiers have not expired, reclean and reinstall.
Merry Christmas...

[Starr]

private 3m, both her reciever and the one I let her use are old rca's. I think an important observation is that even channel 100 doesn't come in and that makes me think of connection problems and I am useless when it comes to that stuff. Arghhhhh, I don't want to start paying for my hair!!!

Starr

[lookn4u]

To make a long story short. I shot myself in the chest with a 45. Lucky for me the trip across the shop into the trap,out of the sand and back across the shop slowed it enough that it just stuck in my shirt and put a welp on me. All the guys behind me saw was the shot being fired and me collapsing at the same time. Hurt like hell. I was test firing a customer gun and the guy had worked up his own loads(very hot loads)A lesson learned the hard way. If you didn't load it your self or buy it of the shelf don't shot it no matter how well you know the person. The guy that owned the gun was in tears when he got to me. He thought a piece of the hammer had came off and hit me in the chest as did i till i dug out the lead and relized what happened. It was very embarrasing for me as well as everyone at the shop.

[Muggles]

Starr;
As for your most embarrasing moment, I got an idea. But I can not leave my thoughts here, cause I would have to ban myself. . . . And as usual I am probably wrong anyway.

MERRY Christmas...........

Starr: Hairdresser's box

Process of elimination.

Antenna is aimed correctly, because the signal works for 2 minutes.
Boxes work correctly, you tried them at your house.
Card is programmed OK, it works at your house.
Answer: It's either the antenna to the box connection, or the connection out to VCR or TV, or conncection in on VCR or TV.

Check the antenna connection on the back of the box. The part where the antenna wire connects to the box. Also check the connection where the wire connects the box to the TV or VCR. The problem could be that when the wire was attached to the box, the VCR, or the TV that the center wire within the cable wire got bent and is being shorted out when the nut is tightened on the cable end. Make sure the fittings on the cable ends are crimped tight and are not loose.

IF you don't understand what I am referring to, PM me or respond here.

Al

PS. If this doesn't clear up the problem, I have an unused airline ticket and will be happy to help your hairdresser fix her box.

[Starr]

Muggles you might be on the right track......Cerebus how did you know she was blonde? But it's her husband that is screwing everything up sort of coincidental that he once shot himself in the head too. Al, I too think it is the connection to the TV. I told them to get a new R6 cable and to let me know. I'll give em a shout in a minute and will probably be back on here bitc*'n in two. Merry Xmas everyone and fess up with some of those embarrassing moments. It's not like anyone will know your disgrace and it will be a great laugh.

[Alaccountant]

When I got out of school I got cleaned up and got a job with a local CPA firm in New Haven, Connecticut. My friend fixed me up with a nice girl so we could double date. (what a change for me) I went out with this girl several times and really liked her, however, she was shy and weary of my reputation. (ya know, small town stuff)

One day, the other guys and myself decided to cruise downtown New Haven during our lunch hour. We all sat low in my Chevy, windows down, radio turned up, trying to look cool while wearing suits and ties. I saw this great looking girl walking in the noon time crowd and pointed her out to the guys, "look at the ass on that one, wow". I then couldn't hold myself back, I yelled and howled out the window. When she turned around there was no-where to hide, she was the girl that my friend introduced me to.

I married her 1 year later, now it's 34 years, the only difference is, now, I'm the ass in her eyes.

Goodnight and Merry Christmas.

[skimtbaldy]

Ok, This is very embarrassing but here it goes anyway!!

I had been inside sales for about a year and today was the day of my big promotion to outside sales. I arrived early to work wearing my new suit and tie and could hardly wait for my new boss to arrive and show me the ropes of selling. While waiting for him I had a tickle in my nose that would not go away. I finally had to sneeze a very large sneeze. So I cupped my hand in front of my nose, I could not find a Kleenex, and Aaaachooooooooo!!!! As I sneezed one of the largest sneezes in my life I felt something hard hit my hand. It was wintertime and we all know what happens to our noses in the cold dry air of winter. So I looked down at my hands afterward and saw nothing, but I knew I felt something hit, so I continued to look around. I looked at my shirt, my arms, my pants, my desk, damn where did that projectile land? After thoroughly looking and feeling every bit of myself I concluded that it must of landed somewhere on the ground so I forgot all about it and continued on with my work. About two hours later, and me talking to almost all the other employees in the office, my new boss arrives. And low and behold he is wearing the same exact tie that I have on. I walk up to him and say, “Good morning, Mike! Hey we are wearing the same exact tie!!”. His reply was, “Ya you are right we are wearing the same tie, but mine does not have THAT on it!!”. I look down and there on my nice new tie is large, hard green blob about the size of a nickel. Oh my God!!!

Happy New Year!!!

Now that I think of it I had another embarrassing moment at a phone booth once but I will have to be drunk to tell that story!!

[cooperhillgirl]

skimtbaldy,
How much worse:US could it be???
I would have had to be drunk to tell that story!!!
LMAO!!! :D

[skimtbaldy]

Cooper,

Glad you enjoyed the previous embarrasing moment!!! The other one I will tell one day when we are all sitting around a fire, drinking some very fine wine or beer. Then and only then and after about 6 drinks I will tell it. Lets just say it has a phone booth, bathroom, weird walk, and a long drive all wrapped into one terrible moment in my life!!! :)

[BBDD]

I was addressing an audience of some 600 people and conveying my Heart Felt thanks for their support in my election to office. Now if you reverse the H and the F in those words you will know what I said!

That was 15 years ago and my kids still roll on the floor laughing when somebody brings it up!
It's usually the little lady that brings it up when she is miffed at me!
Hehehehe

[Starr]

I'm back and with an all new embarrassing moment!! I started my new job and here I am sitting at my desk when this guy walks over to me to introduce himself. Be office friendly and all. Well, I am being what I think is witty cause this guy has a beaming smile on his face. A joke here a joke there, finally the guy walks away and while I was marveling at my own wit I look down to find my zipper had been undone and the gap was stretttchhed wide open! No wonder he was smiling.

[spyguy]

Well, here goes:
My best friend and I were at a casino and proceeded to ejoy the "free" cocktails. After about 5 hours of non-stop drinkin' and some $20,000 later, I was peeved and wanted my money back. I went to the cashier to get a marker and they were taking a bit longer than we felt necessary (it was probably only a minute or two in sober-people time) so my buddy says, "Let's just go." (The following is at that "drunken octave). I said, "Nah, I'm alright". To which he replies, "F#$% it, let's just go home and go to BED". Without missing a beat, I replied, "Don't worry about it, I've got the room" (meaning credit on my account, but I'm sure noone else was thinkin' that). After having that exchange, we both looked at each other realizing what was just said. Looking around us, there was not a stray eye on anyone's face, they were ALL focused on us. Needless to say, I cancelled by request for the marker, saved the money (most assuredly), and we went home and went to bed. OUR OWN BEDS IN OUR OWN HOMES:) SG

[zcubed]

Remember back in the 80's when there were all those bumper stickers that said "I (and then there was a heart) ______"
Like, "I (heart) New York" (I Love New York)?
Well anyway, I was in high school then, and my friends cut letters out of several different bumper stickers like that and put them all together, and then they put them on my bumper. The finished sticker read: I (heart) Masturbation I didn't notice it for 3 days!

That is hysterical. Are you sure they were your friends though?

[Angel29]

I will share an embarrasing moment. When I first started dating my husband, we went on a double date. The couple was his friends and they are older than me. At the time I was only 19 and I was trying so hard to act mature, and drinking didnt help. To make a long story short...after a few drinks and playing put put...I had to use the restroom before we left the putput place. I came out...trying to still act so cool like I could handle my liquor..and as I walked up the steps I sensed I was all alone. I turned around to find everyone back a ways rolling on the floor laughing... What could they be laughing at , I thought. Well come to find out I had about three feet of toilet paper stuck in my pants coming out the top of them like a tail and it was dragging on the floor...like I wiped my tush, tried to throw it in the toilet, and pulled up my pants before it had time drop into the toilet... His friend still brings it up this day.

Perhaps in the wrong forum because it's not B.S. If it hadn't happened to me, I'd swear I had seen the movie it was in. My same friend mentioned above (I'm noticing a pattern here) and I were selected by his family to be the chaparones for his younger brother on his senior cruise (each kid had to have someone 25 or older accompany them and my buddy was only 24 at the time). During a three day weekend prior to leaving, we ALL go to the store to "stock up" on necessities for the cruise. Well, my buddy's little brother is convinced that he's gonna "get" this girl he's been flirting with over the year, so he heads down an isle to get some condoms. The store is packed, and moving around poses a difficulty in itself. My buddy and I hit the next isle over to get suntan lotion and some aloe vera for the sunburn we were sure we'd "get". All of a sudden we hear his brother call our names out and we look up to see him across the shelf holding up 2 boxes of condoms, standing next to 4 other people asking, "Which do you guys prefer, ribbed or smooth?" Have you ever tried disappearing to a parking lot in a packed store without being noticed!!!? SG
