EMS Humor - Part Deuce
There are only 10 things in this world
you need to fix any ambulance, any place, any time... |

| 7. Ridiculously Large Snap-on Screwdriver: Let's admit it, there's nothing better for prying, chiseling, lifting, breaking, splitting or mutilating than a huge flatbladed screwdriver, particularly when wielded with gusto and a big hammer. This is also the tool of choice for all filters so insanely located they can only be removed by striking a stake in one side and out the other. If you break the screwdriver - and you will, just like Dad and your shop teacher said - who cares, it has a lifetime guarantee. |
| 8. Bailing Wire: Commonly known as an MG muffler brackets, bailing wire holds anything that's too hot for tape or ties. Like duct tape, it's not recommended for concours contenders, since it works so well you'll never need to replace it with the right thing again. Bailing wire is a sentimental favorite in some circles, particularly with the Eagle, Flxible and Crown set. |
| 9. Bonking Stick: This monstrous tuning fork with devilish pointy ends is technically known as a tie-rod separator. But how often do you separate tie-rod ends? Once every decade if you're lucky. Other than medieval combat, its real use is the all-purpose application of undue force, not unlike that of the huge flatbladed screwdriver. Nature doesn't know the bent metal panel or the frozen exhuast pipe that can stand up to a good bonking stick. (Can also be used to separate tie-rod ends in a pinch, of course, but does a lousy job of it).. |
| 10. 35 cents and a phone booth: See item #1. |
