I don't like large crowds. Heck, I don't like small crowds.

During the december GB/Chicago game it's beer slush that gets thrown!

I HATE basketball. I'd rather watch some hockey.

BTW, I will watch a little high school ball. That's the good stuff.

Nice and fat from dinner...
Most sports for me to get into have to be in person or violent. Football I can watch anytime, probably because I grew up playing and watching it. The HS and College sports are better to watch I think they compete more in them. I can watch Hockey sometimes, lots of action in it. For playing a sport, paintball is what I like alot! I get an adrenalene rush playing paintball.

Agreed. Heck, I don't even like going to parties. Just me and the kegerator is fine with me!

I don't mind one or two people over, espically when I'm working in the shop and I can fiddle while they hang out. I must have adult add or something, I'm always doing something.

I don't like the general public, everyone seems so immature at times. Can't stand to hear people talking, either, but that's from a different reason...

do de do...

Hey Mad,

I started preping for it today... Gonna do half at a time so I can keep the kegerator cold...

I got some joint filler, hopefully it does not have a super long dry time.

Mark, what floor covering are you using. The rustoleum one i used a few years ago had a fairly quick dry time but it doesn't hold up to high traffic.

At your temps it should dry quick.. You might want to keep the paint bucket cool while your doing the floor..(heat activated - chemical reaction) Don't mix anymore than you can roll out..

I dunno which one I used, I did the garage floor abour 4 rs ago. I rememberit came as a kitand was very easy to use. It covers nice but doesn't hold up to the salt and high traffic.. Still holds a nice shine though!

Use the 2 part industrial oil base in a high traffic area.. It holds up to the 17K forklift..

Next time I redo the garage floor I'm going to use an industrial coating instead. We used several types of industrial floor coatings at work and they held up very welll. They held up even being around locomotive grease and oil.

I'm using the quikrete. I don't bring vehicles in the garage, so I'm not too worried about it. It was actually pretty nice yesterday and today, dang near cold outside right now. I've got a big shop fan for drying, too Can't wait to get it done, the install looks pretty easy. I'm going to prep the floor really good, too. I've got the flakes and the sand...

A coated floor is nice! it adds to the shop lighting and cleanup is simple..just wipe with a rag and used oil is gone..

Well I'm done for the night guys (I have a file server to rebuild tomorrow).. if your running McAfee A/V read this:
