Bob Bob Bob...lol
Lary gets me to help hide your phoo each and every morning.
That's after he puts his leftover LEGG glaze and (censored) in the grinder to keep it running quietly.
I too wonder where Skottkwa is.
Mom? I sent more than just auto parts.

..................................TOO FUNNY. Now I know why he looks like he does. ..................Awww, Scotty - - - we luv ya, man.
On a serious note - - - this shooting stuff is getting ridiculous. I wonder how long it will take for Obama to go on a gun collection tirade. All he needs is an emergency and he will push it to get his agenda. Sickening. We need to impeach him and kick out a bunch of other bums.
OK, Bob - - settle down. Relax - - have another ph00 - - - eat a cookie - - take a walk.

Good morning there.
Saturday morning is here, everything is just about as weird as I thought it would be, that's a good thing, since I'm not much of a "SURPRISE"-kindaguy...
There's coffee and phoo, eggs and bacon, bread and cheese, oatmeal and cornflakes, milk and juice, that ought to get just about anybody up and running.
Things around here is kinda the same as always, except that the swedish fleet has been looking for what they think could be a russian submarine...but they've been searching for a week now, and haven't found anything.
JWBM I got parts too if you need any, just wave and I'll fax it to you
My dad brought his lawntractor here, "it ain't working, can you fix it?", well I'll look at it, so under all the dirt and the grass and whatever he puts that poor thing through, there's a hole in the cutterdeck, sealed securely by a piece of....duct tape, yeah, that's my dad alright.
That wasn't the problem though, it was the drivebelt, the tensioner was worn out, but I think I got it fixed, will test when the rain stops.
Grabbing bacon and coffee, going to do stuff.

Happy Saturday all y'all. Good to see you again Slev and thanks for the vittles. I had a disappointing experience this week trying to find a simple part for my antique tractor. I had to drop the sediment bowl off the carb last weekend to get a bunch of water out of there. The sediment bowl gasket came off in pieces. So, on Monday I called our local IH dealer. The branch in the city cannot order agricultural parts so the told me to call the branch about 40 miles north of the city. The young kid at the parts desk there searched and searched and finally said the part was discontinued. Not one to give up, I tried the branch of the same company 50 miles south of the city where I have gotten parts in the past. Luckily I got the guy who maintained the engines on Noah's Ark. I always want to get the old guys at the parts counters. He eventually found the part and it costs $5 each. Now we are cooking with peanut oil! Then he found out he can only order them in sets of 5. I don't really need 5 of them but I was willing to play ball. Unfortunately I don't really have time to drive 100 miles round trip for the part so I asked him to ship through internal mail to the company branch in Calgary. No can do. The only way I could get it would be to ship it by courier for $30. So now we are at $55 for a $2 gasket 
I had one last idea. I got the part number and phoned the branch in the city and asked them to get me the part. Sorry sir, our computers won't allow us to order agricultural parts at this branch. Are you kidding me. That is just stupid. So the end of the story is that I bought a sheet of gasket cork at an auto parts store on the way home and I will make my own gasket today. If I run into trouble, I bet Heidi has one for me in her new pile of parts.... Oh yeah, I can get the same gasket from Steiner antique tractor parts online for $0.98 plus $30 shipping to get it across the border. Maybe NEFarmhand can pop up here for the day and help me out if I fail
Have a happy and safe Saturday everyone. Wish me luck.

Chili is cooking, deviled eggs are ready, Grill is getting moved, desserts are made, shop is cleaned, few other vittles getting ready.
Come on over and get a bite. I'm told that there might be some nasty scary black guns a bit later, (with all range rules adhered too) a bonfire in the yard, and then a hayride.
Park anywhere......
