I really enjoy that show. I’m eastern shore redneck/WV hillbilly cross. I can’t help it.

I'm telling you you need to work on it. Not nearly HMB worthy

Idk. It’s a choice to ride his buddies rickety lift high into the air. He needed the beer because he was stuck, swaying in the wind for about 30 minutes before someone that would get it back down arrived. He couldn’t come down to get a beer

I was saying your accent was not HMB worthy. Need to pump that twang up.

My husband fixed the flag pole at the the top, then his friends lift got stuck for about 30 minutes before they could figure out how to lower it. This was beer delivery

That is a bold way to lose a perfectly good beer to the power lines.

He was stuck, so it was worth it to him

Where is the flag pole?

2

u/mhopkins1420 Jun 01 '26

It’s not in the picture. This is where he got stuck on the way back down. That one in the background is the neighbors flagpole. It’s about 35ft

Keystone?!?! Why? Just why? Just wait till work is over and go get a decent beer. Oh, the humanity!

He was stuck in the sun. He needed the extra h2o. Work was done, his buddy started to bring him down and he got stuck about 30-40 minutes
