What was with the sign on the breakroom door this mornin'? 'Working on the site.' ??? I didn't authorize any work! Now I gotta go UN-do all the stuff that someone apparently did! If I find out who did this 'work', they're gonna be bannished to the outhouse 'til they retire!

Oh perfect, just perfect. NOW it's snowin' again!

Sorry, I figured you were too busy plowing to notice. I commandeered the breakroom a couple minutes for a nice quiet cup of coffee before the foo-foo got slipped in. Things slowing down now, I think we killed them all off. At least I got about 10hours seat time on the tractor yesterday. More fun than snowmobiling... must be getting old.. and it needs a cup holder.

Mornin all.

Sorry about the car Claude. Hope she has insurance and it can be taken care of fairly easily.

Trad stop antagonizing the janitor....... let some one else have a turn we might want some fun too.

Eau de toilette #2 It just doesn't any better than that.

Weather is beautiful right now. No wind no snow, temps are -10*C right now. Suppose to go up to -3*C today, hope there right on the forecast.

Full moon for the last 3 nights, what a difference that makes. Seems like it gets light out at least an hour earlier than it did before. Also brings out a few nut cases with it though.

Have a good one..... Later.

Mornin' all,

NW Houston, cool, in the hi 40s, with rain. Had to bail a kidlett out of the think tank yesterday. Struck down by internal disorders. She still home today.

I jobb, enjoy the nice weather while you can. Too cloudy to see the full moon here. The other night when it was clear could see the planet Mars just to the right of the moon.

Chaikwa, thanks for keeping the outhouse stocked with the needed items. Makes for a ruff job.

OldDog, good luck in the school parking lot, got pix? Bummer when things like that happen.

BrokenHAT, take advantage of all the help you can get. It won't last long, and you will have to be doing things for yourself again. Good to know your repair job went well, and the 6 million dollar marine will be back at 110%.

Redleg, there is no such thing as quite time in the breakroom. If it ever looks like it might be quiet in the wee hours of the morning, some rowdy will be banging trash cans.

CIN, I beat the doggie to the landing zone and got the goodies, thanks. Good aim.

Job jar ain't empty yet.

Have a good un and be safe out there.

well here are pict`s #1 you can see its up against tire-#2 i have it pulled with plenty of clearance .
used a jig that belongs to a buddy of mine and a come along - the jig is 3/ in steel rod with steel bent to hook under lip and one side is streight the other is curved- about a foot wide so you can pull with out causing more damage-
had to put a truck bumper against his rear bumper on the side and he held the brake on my ranger -to stop both from sliding.
COME WARMER WEATHER I`LL PULL THE TRIM IN SIDE OUT AND USE A PORT -A- POWER AND JACK IT BACK IN TO SHAPE.Attachment 19018

Repair... that's using the term loosly... I'm gonna call a buddy for help later. OL just ain't strong enough. I'm not faulting her or anything...

Back for a bit, then back to the races.

Claude, sorry about the son's car. I got some pics for you so you can make me a walking stick... PM me your e-mail address and I'll send them to you...


Bout to go eat some beanie-weenies that my super sweet loving caring wonderful gracious bueatiful (standing over my shoulder) tender non-abusive wife made for me...

Later...

I have some of that cologne! Want me to send ya a bottle or two?

Claude, sorry to hear 'bout the crash. Time to go crash some sense into someone!

Hat, you still nursin' that wrist??? I thought Marines healed faster than the general population?

Gotta go take mother to PT. In the snow.

Afternoon coffee is ready. (I noticed that no one was makin' fresh stuff in the afternoons in my absense!
