Initiative or stupidity?
If you look closely at this photo, you'll see that most of the weight is leaning towards the sidewalk, not the street side. The posts should
actually be on the sidewalk side. I think this guy knows what he's doing.
As to why women live longer, how about it's because men do most off the physical work? Try to imagine a woman attempting to fix this vehicle. This
guy has initiative and motivation.
Picture a woman waiting for a man to come along and jerry-rig this vehicle to get it running for her. I can.
Call her intelligent or useless.
US Marines: providing enemies of America an opportunity to die for their country since 1775.
What I say before any important decision.
F*ck it.

OK. She get's the benefit of the doubt. She's intelligent.
Why do I know more intelligent women then men, anyway?

He's a smart hombre.......He's probobly filled the gas tank with water so he can patch the hole in the tank. Just another example of good old Mexican
mechanic ingenuity. It would be illegal (you could be fined and end up in jail) in the U.S. for committing this crime. The truck would require a trip
to the dealer and a new tank installed for a $1500..Can you imaggine if you attempted this repair....... lets say in downtown Newport Beach????

Baitcast.......If you notice in the photo there is a human shadow on the road to the left a bit, from where th pic. was taken. My guess there could
be a fork lift or backhoe assist nearby. And if not, 6 average strength Mexican males( oops sorry)passerbys could easily help lift, and probably
laugh and enjoy the game. They have time. Or.....he could have taken the time to jack it up himself and propped it as he went.

The title on the photo is sort of a distraction. It's a classic even without a title, or it could have been a fun "give this photo a subtitle"
contest.
Funny it's from the Dominican Republic k1w1. It was on a Mexico photo blog so it's probably been around a while-although the guy may not be !
