Today's thought:
You can never cross the ocean unless you have the courage to lose sight of the shore.

You've got to be kidding me! NO ONE has been in here all dang day??? There's white fuzz floating on top of the c0ffee! And I think I just saw the ph00 m0ve. :o

Sorry you've been so lonely. Some of us work for a living.

Shook the fuzz off, grabbed a cuppa. About 10 hours strong.. oughta do it.

We keep you around to abuse.

The thought of the day was lame too. I still care about you, though, buddy.

Evenin. Got rid of the in laws, for the love of pete that crap ain't happenin again for another year... at least!

Still living the good life... finally got the peg board up in the garage, that was good to me. Hopefully tomorrow I'll get all the tools up! :)

Seems to be the general theme with me lately. Go ahead, abuse me, I'm used to it!

It was next on the list. When we get to 'I think, therefore I am', you'll know it's the end of that list!

14 1/2 hour days today and Saturday, and I didn't get to town yesterday, so I had to go get some groceries tonight. I have a feeling tomorrow is going to suck. Did get that pivot planted today though.

Mornin' y'all and yun's,

Sure been some gorgeous weather around these parts lately .... I love this time of year. All except for the snakes. Came home last week to find a little coral snake stretched out on my front porch by the door. I'm glad my kids or dogs didn't find it first.

Coffee smells pretty good ...is it still the Friday batch with new water or did someone dump the urn and start over ??

4 more days to make a difference ...git after it !!

Cheers,
PISTOL

Good morning all y'all. Just doing a quick driveby for a cup of Joe and a donught before the day gets going. Please send some rain up this way before Alberta just turns into cinder. It is so dry I am afraid to just say the word fire outside. Luckily the fields around my house were all cut short last year so even if we do have a problem, it should be easily controllable before it gets near the house or barn.
Have a safe day everyone.

Windy dry and dusty here. What a change from a wk ago.
Still werkin on the truck...between shifts naps and interruptions.

[coffee]

chilly here ..listening to my sinfull rockabilly music ...again .....ah i dont know how i listen to the radio in the trucks anymore.. no soul anymore...

Didn't work too lat tonight. Went to air up the tires on my fertilizer truck, ended up taking it to town to get one replaced. I couldn't believe how well the Dayton wheels and split rims came apart/went together, and how nicely the bead seated on the 3-piece rims.

The last time this truck was in town was 3-4 years ago, getting a motor swap. And a hail storm took out my passenger mirror, and I don't think any lights work except the left headlight, at least consistently.

Aw, CARP!! Left my beer in the freezer too long!

sounds like my 88 wd-150..no brakes. clutch throw out when it wanted..iffy lights. body held in place with tie down straps ..but boy it would burn those rear tires without a second thought:peel:....blakes got some pictures of it....

Gettin ready to go to work.....yep, kinda bass akwards from most folks routine but it is what it is.....hey, at least it's my Friday.[guitar] Better go pull my boots up and head out. Ya'll have a goodun. I'll check back in here in the morning....hopefully our abused and misunderstood janitor will have some bacon and eggs whooped up.[laugh]

Later.

Mornin'.

Today's thought:
Unless you try to do something beyond what you have already mastered, you will never grow. Every job is a self portrait of the person who did it ... Autograph your work with excellence.

And my autograph today shall be my Masterpiece Coffee! The ph00 pot is still fuzzy... I ain't touchin' it!
