Gonna go get a chain saw and get to work.

remind me not to go on vacation with you. You have had some stuff going on for what is supposed to be relaxing.

hope it all worked out.

Who would have thunk it! http://www.fleetguard.com/pdfs/produ...es/MB10033.pdf One more thing to go wrong on a truck. And they are going to require it on tractors ect by 2015. Yikes.

Claude! I think you can fill his extra tank by whizzing in it.

Dang Mark. Guess mother nature wants you to stay on the right coast. Looks like a Bradford Pear. They're notorious for breaking in the wind.

Looks like we need to change the aiming point on Calvin. Maybe showing him standing next to the fuel door would be more appropriate.

Who knows, maybe we are on to something. Have a cow in the back of the truck belching methane into the air cleaner and Calvin taking care of the fuel tank. Prob wont keep up with madhat on nitro but it would smell interesting.
Very slow around here tonight. Watching Duck Soup on the tv. Pretty good for 1933. Gnight---

That's a good one, Bark - - gave me my morning chuckle.

Hey Mad - - I bet I beatcha on the tree cutting. Just in from cutting down four palms. Watching one more closely. Sad - - all dried up from the freeze - - finally gave up on them resurrecting from the dead, had a service and cut them down. Up at 5:30 to beat the heat. Neighbors were probably not happy with me at all. But, all down, cut up and at the street. I'm soaked and tired. Hmmm, maybe time to hit the sack again.

OK, grabbing ph00 and out of here - - gotta go rest a bit. Getting to old for this stuff so early in the morning.

Bob

Careful how you group them together, they can be kind of touchy...


Morning, in for the first cup. A little foggy , but nice this morning finally. Got lots of sleep last night. Went to bed early Didn't even hear my alarm this morning. Guess I could only hold out for 13 days without any real sleep instead of 14. Oh well, they'll probably give me another opprtunity soon to break that streak. Looks like we have one more that's gonna fly the coup here.
