Luckily Wife and I both like driving late at night. I am less prone to wanting to kill people at that hour.

Last time an "old friend" from HS got a hold of me out of the blue he tried to sell me insurance. Couldn't believe how much the idiot had changed.

I don't totally buy that. I suspect you occasionally have those kind of dreams that make you get up at 3 in the morning knowing you aren't going back to sleep for awhile.

Is that like the Curd forming Dance performed while wearing Moms underpants?
Gorgonzola was the worst because it didn't rhyme with much.

No, not this time. The idea was to slide the square tubing over the corner tooth on the excavator bucket, then puncture the tank with the can opener and rip a slot in the tank. The problem is the machine we got from Hertz had a rock bucket and and therefore, larger, single point tigers. I was told it was coming with a 36" bucket and standard teeth. I'll just build another with the can opener mounted on a plate with a short piece of chain you can slip over the bucket tooth. I had actually sketched this one but opted for the one I built because that's what the boss thought would work best.

Scott, two things here........

1. Thanks for posting the daily look back into History, I enjoy seeing it everyday

b. Thanks also for the photo of the Superhero, I plan on showing it to my Grand kids in hopes the message will sink in.

Tres. No I don't mean the message that it is OK to walk around in their underwear

Although there was a time we were quite happy if they would at least leave their underwear on as they scampered around the house...nothing harder to catch than a laughing, running child with no clothes on in the grocery store

Entertaining tela novela yall have going on in here. Glad to see everyone kickin' around.

Scott, that production machine is really impressive. I guess you'll need some good tires on it to handle the weight of that beast.


We are crazy busy here. Seems like something scheduled every day for the last three weeks. I am worn out. Beginning of the week our new privacy fence was put up. I love it. 6" cedar dog-eared slats on 2x4 horizontals, and not the premade panels. It was fully built. We are impressed. Got our rental property manager contracted as well. We really like her. Also got our general contractor dialed in. We still need to get the contract signed. Hitting FL for the house hunt. Had seven houses picked out but three got swiped up already. Hope one of the other four pan out. I dropped my PPW in the mail today, the final form submissions to close my business. It was a good run, glad I did it, but now ready for something else. The truck needs a new spare tire before we roll out. I'll buy a new one when I take it in for a rotate and balance next next week.

Tonight all I would like is some good Chinese takeout for dinner, some Italian wine and a little time to let my brain unwind. We've got our movers tentatively scheduled for two weeks from now. So, still hanging onto that rollercoaster that's racing around on the tornado. It won't slow down until we get moved into the new place at the end of the month. I hope yall don't mind the stream of consciousness post. Feels good to unload the weight. DH and I are truckin' along and several times have butted heads...(haha butted heads). But if he doesn't drag me and I don't drag him, we ain't getting through! All is well though. We wouldn't be given the challenge if we weren't up to the task.

Yo Elder Twin...where'd I get this dream from? I keep dreaming about you bringing me a tanker of JP-7 for my Oxcart and you keep telling me there should be at least two PJ's on the other plane not just one.
Very strange.

You look like you are 20-25 yrs old.

LEggitus?
