[QUOTE="Mad_Jack, post: 9563227, member: 6750306"] Seems about accurate - One of my first real jobs in high school was working at the Sears warehouse moving those kinds of things around, and by 1989 or so, they hadn't really gotten any lighter: your average wooden-cabinet tv set weighed anywhere between 200-300 lbs. depending on the size... Allow me to one-up your Mr. Pibb incident with "The Tequila Incident"*... * [SPOILER="Spoilered for the feint of heart"] I went to kill a bottle of expensive mescal and knocked it back, intending to swallow the worm... Instead, I choked on said mighty beast and, in addition to flooding my sinuses with high-powered alcohol, snarfed the worm out my right nostril. It was... un-pretty. Enough so that to this day I still shiver thinking about it. I think I'd rather have been tear-gassed. [/SPOILER] [/QUOTE]
