Ouch!!!!!!!

This is my first tip for the contest.....do NOT pee on an electric fence.
Right Lakota?:D

As a boy I spent the summers in Louisiana with my Uncle, Aunt & 2 male cousins. My Uncle used to make us take turns mowing this huge lot next door to their house & one day my oldest cousin was PO'd @ having to do this while we were off playing. To get back @ my Uncle he decided to pee on the lawnmower *while it was running*. He got back @ my Uncle all right... my Uncle had to take him to the emergency room cause his *equiptment* swole up really bad & turned purple. HOW embarrassing!!! This may have broken him from doing that again!!!!! Wizedude & Lakota, thanks for this excellent advice... I will *definitely* keep it in mind!

I see the above post (and the 6 other post) and take it that Lokata has officially entered the running for the contest...

WoW.....That is a lot of information to absorb...
 
Nah, no contest for me. I may make a one line tongue-in-cheek quip now and again. I usually don't post or reply unless I have info or add to/clarify a statement or answer a question.
 
I found using a good reference book such as a Chiltons or Haynes manual always works for me. They all have the color coades and wire sizes listed. And thanks to Lakota for being here when he is needed, nothing like having an encyclopedia as a member on the forum....lol.....no offence brother.....lol...:D
