Best story I've heard from an FAA Inspector...

FAA Inspector is finishing up some business at the FBO when a Mooney taxi's
up and shuts down. Pilot jumps out, storms into the FBO and starts chewing
out the FBO attendant...
"When was the last time anybody checked the runway for FOD?!! I just tried
to take off and I know I ran something over! This airplane cost me $$$$ and
I will not tolerate debris on the runway!!.... blah bla blah... I want to
see the airport manager, I'll have your job.... bla bla bla...

The FAA Inspector just stands back and listens for awhile, then goes out to
secretly investigate... he goes out on the runway and discovers a towbar...
brings it back and approaches an open hanger where another pilot was washing
his plane and asks if he recognizes the towbar... pilot responds "Yep,
that's George's, the guy with the Mooney parked down infront of the FBO"

FAA Inspector takes the towbar back to the FBO and asks the Mooney pilot if
that was his towbar. Mooney pilot says "Yep, and who the hell bent it all
up on me??!! I just used it 20 minutes ago!!"

FAA Inspector says "You did. You taxied out and tried to take off with it
still attached. I'll let you off with some remedial training and by the
way, you'll need a new prop and an engine tear down."
