Well, there's...

Throwing lines over trees
EHS -v- Phillystran
How to kill wasps
My guy grips don't fit
The great waterproof tape debate

- and my favourite -

"I have a full-size 4-el 80m quad on a CD45 rotor with water pipe mast,
three stacked 40M4Ls, a 5/5/5 on 20m and a 2m FM whip all on 165ft of Rohn
25G. It's not guyed, the bottom is just dug into 2ft of earth and it kinda
leans against my house. It's never fallen down. Who needs a greedy b*****d
PE anyway?"

Cue 2 weeks and 200 mails of opprobrium.
