Evening all

Care package delivered, like a flock of vultures hovering over a body when he saw what we had. Even took him a couple pieces of cake. That should do him for a couple of days I hope. Wife even had a package of sausage in there that I didn't see. Now if anybody feels sorry for the boy I just want to let you know that just across the street from where he lives is a huge grocery store... and we're hauling grub for an hour or so?
Sheeeese whats wrong with this picture? The boss says.... Yea but its different. How are you going to argue with that kind of logic. It was good to see him and have a visit. needs to get friendlier with a razor though

SR Ment to ask you this before... How far are you from the Dow plant in that state? I think it was close to some state park if not mistaken. Might be shut down by now. Use to build and rebuild cells for use in making Caustic/chlorine.
The catastrophic disassembly of a 57mm round sounds interesting.

Hat just start counting backwards from 100. 99, 988, 97777 9--- and out like a light. And um if you could let someone know the where abouts of the keys to your shed Just in case (heaven forbid) you don't make it. No not for the tools, for the beer, and the keys to the truck since it's all fixed. You'll be fine, just keep up the physiotherapy. Just make sure they operate on the "right" one.

Pistol sounds like your setting up shop for a while with a suite like that. Just remember confusion = cash.

Better get, daughter wants the putter to check her E-mail. Catch you in the AM.

Good evenin' all. Quick fly-by posting to let y'all know I'm still alive. Just did a 3 day 'Auto-Rama' show at the Devoss Convention Center in Grand Rapids. Kinda interestin' I guess... met 4 guys who are BMX pro's. Absolultely amazing what they did with bikes, and real interesting learning how they live and make their livin'. Even tho they make 7 figure incomes, my life is easy compared to theirs. Also met Cooter from the 'ol Dukes of Hazard show. He has NOT aged gracefully! Nice guy tho and I gave him my autograph.

Tomorrow we start back with the 5AM trainin's that are an hour away, so someone else is gonna hafta get the coffee goin' in the AM. T-Rad perhaps? Speakin' of which, I didn't know he just had a birthday. Happy Birthday you 'ol... well, nevermind. Just 'Happy Birthday'!

Gotta go get some sleep, 0330 comes pretty early!

Como esta amigos .... (insert sombrero wearing smiley).

Well, I made it to El Paso .... unfortunately my tools are in Chicago
This trips getting better and better as the minutes fly. The room is ok ... I'm afraid that I didn't look too coordinated trying to haul my suitcase up the spiral stairs. Think I'll just give it a toss off the balcony when it's time to leave.

Shortround ... I'm s'posed to be here until the 25th. Shoot me a PM if you get anywhere in the area. I have a rental car and a corporate card ... I'm dangerous !!

Yap at ya in the AM,
PISTOL

Sweeping them off my desk and into the printer is NOT exactly what I had in mind when I asked you to clean them up

If you recall, you said, "Get rid of...", and nothing about 'cleaning them up'! I tried cleaning them up once, but scrubbing each and every one of them with a toothbrush and putting them back on the remaining donuts was too time consuming.
