Judy’s backyard, aka KM1R Scrapyard	It’s only been on the ground for 10 years	The stub’s only been there for 2 years!	Top end of the tower with bearings
“Where did you say the septic tank was?”	“If only I was a pigeon!”	“Just how did you want to sling this?”	The LP worked nicely at this height
Rear view of the castle, from the “East 40”	Gee, only a 15-foot tower?	Going up, along with the blood pressure	“I wonder if the Wright Brothers started this way?”
“Why did I agree to this?”	“Gee, honey, this never happened to me before...”	Ohh, I never saw bolts that pretty before	The Erectionmobile
This is your tower on Viagra	Yeah, a bit of height would be fine	“You missed the target!”	On the way
“Someday they’ll let me climb a big tower!”	Can’t really see much from 20 feet	Hope that cable has brakes	“Oh, great, my diuretic just kicked in!”
“Maybe I’ll dive into the pool next door”	Climbing shoes by Ernest of Poland	“Good thing I’m not wearing a skirt!”	“Some assembly required” is right!
Guess who has the desk job?	Looks nice without the antenna, maybe zoning was right!	I hope NASA doesn’t miss this	“...then we launch you into the net over there”
“...go left...”	“...now a little to the right...”	The “R” getting ready for the “shorty forty”	Some kind of friendly Italian gesture
So where is the section?	“If I get bored, I can always step off this thing”	“I wonder if all this metal came from that UFO I saw last night?”	“I never had an Erector Set as a kid”
I think they might have found it!	“Wait, this piece goes under that piece!”	“...and we’ll put the ferris wheel over here...”.	“I’m over here!”
“All this for packet?”	Hope I don’t run out of gas	Nothing like those “preinstalled” tower sections	“Does it look straight now?”
“Don’t move, the picture’s perfect!”	The legendary KM1A supervising the job	“Always gotta clean up after him!”	Going up...
...up...	...up... 137 Kb	...up... 104 Kb	...up...
...up!	Finally in place (give or take)	Heck with the tower, let’s just attach the antenna to this handy crane	“Where’s my parachute?”
“Wassamatta, can't find the hole?” 90 Kb	“You wanted it bolted in?”	“I'm done, now throw up a rope and pull me down”	“Hmm, I wonder if I need 2 towers?”
“I see the captain of the UConn Women’s Basketball Team!”	Don’t look down!	“I think I'm gonna throw up!&rdquot	“Okay, you’re not fat, can I come down now?”
Aaagh! The check!	All done! (After only 10 years)	“I still gotta pee!”	“Mike, I didn’t know there was a nudist resort next door!”
“I can see my house from here!”
