View Full Version : Missing .028??

I'm looking at my tubing catalog and see 3/4"(.750) having a wall
thickness of .028 and an ID of .694. Now .694 + .028 = .722. I seem to
have lost .028 somewhere!
Anyone have an insight? - Mike

You need to check your math. When you figure it out, you need to cancel

I read this post right after getting the below email...
Such good timing...
IDIOTS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD:
I live in a semi-rural area. We recently had a new neighbor call
the local township administrative office to request the removal of the
Deer Crossing sign on our road.
The reason:
"Too many deer are being hit by cars out here!
I don't think this is a good place for them to be crossing anymore."
From Kingman, KS.

IDIOTS IN FOOD SERVICE:
My daughter went to a local Taco Bell and ordered a taco. She
asked the person behind the counter for "minimal lettuce." He said he
was sorry, but they only had iceberg.
He was a Chef?
Yep...From Kansas City!
____________________________________________
IDIOT SIGHTING:
I was at the airport, checking in at the gate when an airport
employee asked,!
"Has anyone put anything in your baggage without your knowledge?
To which I replied, "If it was without my knowledge, how would I
know?"
He smiled knowingly and nodded, "That's why we ask."
Happened in Birmingham, Ala
__________________________________________________ _____
IDIOT SIGHTING:
The stoplight on the corner buzzes when its safe to cross the
street.
I was crossing with an intellectually challenged coworker of mine.
She asked if I knew what the buzzer was for.
I explained that it signals blind people when the light is red.
Appalled, she responded, "What on earth are blind people doing
driving?!"
She was a probation officer in Wichita, KS
__________________________________________________ _
IDIOT SIGHTING:
At a good-bye luncheon for an old and dear coworker.
She was leaving the company due to "downsizing."
Our manager commented cheerfully, "This is fun. We should do this
more often."
Not another word was spoken.
We all just looked at each other with that deer-in-the-headlights
stare.
This was a bunch at Texas Instruments.

IDIOT SIGHTING:
I work with an individual who plugged her power strip back into
itself and for the sake of her own life, couldn't understand why her
system would not turn on.
A deputy with the Dallas County Sheriffs office no less.

IDIOT SIGHTING:
When my husband and I arrived at an automobile dealership to pick
up our car, we were told the keys had been locked in it. We went to the
service department and found a mechanic working feverishly to unlock the
drivers side door. As I watched from the passenger side, I instinctively
tried the door handle and discovered that it was unlocked. "Hey," I
announced to the technician, "its open!"
His reply, "I know - I already got that side."
This was at the Ford dealership in Canton, Mississippi!

Well for the sake of either pedantry or jocularity I'll point out
that it only has ONE wall of thickness 0.028".
The Outside Diameter of the tubing crosses that wall twice.

OK, Maybe it's a wooden tube and was measured green.

Hey, c'mon, guys. This was an easy mistake to make. Who among us hasn't
done something similar?

A woman of no certain hair color called a locksmith. Could he come
right away as she had locked her keys in her car. Since heavy rain
was in the forecast she wanted to get the top up before the rain
started.

I haven't done anything that dumb since lunch.
OK, it was a late lunch.
A few years ago we were having a July 4th BBQ out behind the shop. A
young woman who worked for me was writing a check. She looked up at me
and asked "What's the date?"
I slowly said "The 4th... of July"
I will also note that she's now a Southwest Airlines right seater. She
got her 737 rating at 23, after she got married and had 2 kids.
