Evening all.

Sorry about your back Marc. I had a friend that had that procedure done... died on the table. Um... I mean... (whoo boy) He made out really well, never had any pain after that!

Sorry about the towel in your truck Matt.

Evening all.

Why don't you get rid of that fusible link and put in something like this; <click here> Never have to worry about no stinkin' link again!

Not a problem. Just fill out the 3 page DT5618A form requesting the 136/6B-4 forms packet containing the 'Surfers and Bowlers Compensation and Relief from Monetary Injury' documentation. After you receive this packet you will have 2 business days to complete the requested information forms and return them, along with a copy of your valid drivers license and social security card, for our review. If we approve your request we will notify you in writing no less than 180 days from the receipt of your packet in our office. If we reject your request we will pass it all around the office, make fun of you, laugh at you, then return it to you with some lame excuse that will make your blood boil, causing you to have a myocardial infarction, in which case, you can start the whole process over again.

Hope this helps!

Thanks for the info Scott, I'm going to look into putting somthing like that in place of the fusible link. I'll see if my local Big truck dealer has something like that in their parts dept.


G'night DTR

The Dragon has been stoked and the SEAL is busy swimming in the ph00 without wearing any Depends.

No, $25 is about right for that one. There ain't a lot to them!

Negative ghost ryder, 3 page and in triplicate are two different animals. If you do it my way there's 9 pages.

Greetings. Another good session at the gym other then the pain in the left forearm. Left LEGG is doing awesome. Can do light squats and heavy extensions now.

Marc, all the best to you with regards to the neck repair.

Alturd Phoo00 has a timer on it for the a.m. crew. Not sure what the timer is for...it has wires running to a pile of old Depends.

The gym?? Thats what my doctor told me after my LEGG surgery. I thought he was kidding!

Managed to score corned beef at the IGA for .99 cents a pound (58 pound box, point cut but pretty lean). My doctor is going to love my next lab tests.

I see what you're saying about the 3 pages in triplicate T-Rad, but it's no wonder you're no longer in a government position. When you send someone a 3 page form and tell them 'in triplicate', if they don't ask, you don't tell. Then you can reject the whole thing right from the get-go because it wasn't submitted in triplicate!








Morning all.

Stop and think about how lucky you really are today. Been watching the news with the coverage from Japan...

Today is Tuesday, March 15th.

On this day in 1781 - During the American Revolution, the Battle of Guilford Courthouse took place in North Carolina. British General Cornwallis' 1,900 soldiers defeated an American force of 4,400.

1820 - Maine was admitted as the 23rd state of the Union.

1862 - General John Hunt Morgan began four days of raids near the city of Gallatin, TN.

1864 - Red River Campaign began as the Union forces reach Alexandria, LA.

1877 - The first cricket test between Australia and England was played in Melbourne. Australia won by 45 runs. <There's got to be a Madhat joke here somewhere!>

1916 - U.S. President Woodrow Wilson sent 12,000 troops, under General Pershing, over the border of Mexico to pursue bandit Pancho Villa. The mission failed.

1934 - Henry Ford restored the $5 a day wage.

1937 - In Chicago, IL, the first blood bank to preserve blood for transfusion by refrigeration was established at the Cook County Hospital.

1938 - Oil was discovered in Saudi Arabia.

1939 - German forces occupied Bohemia and Moravia, and part of Czechoslovakia.

1944 - Cassino, Italy, was destroyed by Allied bombing.

1949 - Clothes rationing in Great Britain ended nearly four years after the end of World War II.

1951 - General de Lattre demanded that Paris send him more troops for the fight in Vietnam.

1955 - The U.S. Air Force unveiled a self-guided missile.

1979 - Pope John Paul II published his first encyclical "Redemptor Hominis." In the work he warned of the growing gap between the rich and poor.

1990 - Mikhail Gorbachev was elected the first executive president of the Soviet Union.

1990 - The Ford Explorer was introduced to the public.

1991 - Four Los Angeles police officers were indicted in the beating of Rodney King on March 3, 1991.

2002 - Libyan Abdel Baset Ali Mohmed Al-Megrahi began his life sentence in a Scottish jail for his role in the bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 on December 21, 1988.

2002 - In Texas, Andrea Yates received a life sentence for drowning her five children on June 20, 2001.

2002 - U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell told the Associated Press that the U.S. would stand by a 24-year pledge not to use nuclear arms against states that don't have them.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:
If an anarchist group attained political power, would they by principle have to dissolve their own government?

Coffee's on.

The weather is warmer, so I bought a CD of ice cream truck music. Now I'm gonna go drive around with the stereo on full blast, watching the disappointment on all the little kids faces!
