people climbing on my truck....

Yep... when you're young and fresh faced, it's best to go with the "Axe Murderer" look. When they get on the side of your truck, just start barking at them'foaming at the mouth if you can (carry a can of whipped cream).

Or maybe have blood running down your face as you roll down the window while munching on a human leg.

LMAO... I gotta stop... I'm about to piss myself laughing.

 

I've only had it happen once, in the Hunts Point area of all places. Long time ago.

It's simply amazing how fast they can land flat of their ### when they see the business end of a 45 on the other side of the glass.

3am in the morning...its sitting in my lap for inner city tours.

 

What type of hotshot is in use now?
We use to fabricate our own in a box with handle, doorbell button switch, model "T" spark coil and 2 dry cell batteries. 6 Feet of good wire, a long straight "showmans" stick with contacts screwed apart at small end. Good steady blue arc kinda like a110V welder. If cow breathed, she mooed and MOVED...
Needed to reach it thru a slat of two above your head and hold out at arms length. Reaction inside from cow could make your end "slap upside your head." (We had wood slat sided trailers-No alum with portholes.)

 

I was parked on the street in Chicago waiting for the place where I was delivering to open when a guy came up the street, jumped on the driver's side step and claimed he was a lumper for that company. My window was down maybe 1/3 of the way, so I just told him if he didn't get off my truck he was going to have to start calling himself "lumpy" instead of "lumper". He got indignant and started claiming he was just trying to help. After I informed him I had delivered to the place before, I knew the people there and it was all family owned and operated. Since he didn't look greek (it was a black guy) I didn't figure he was working there. He got the picture and walked on down the road.

I'm a fairly big guy (6'5", 200 lbs.) and I'm uglier than a barrel of hair, so people generally don't bother me.

 

I'll bet that works better than anything else...Simply amazing how ignorant people become civilized when they are looking down the business end of a 45!

 

This is so true.... Works great in NYC and Hunts Point.

 

Thanks, that is good to know.

 

I remember those hot seats they would make in electronics class , when my electronics teacher would sit down he would get a jolt. hmmm ? E=IxR never forgot amperage draw how it follows the path of least resistance via copper wire.

 

Anytime Cat...Be safe out there
