Had to change an airbag on a trailer yesterday. Not enough room to sit up underneath it, had to dig out dried out distillers grains, unhook the air line, spin the fitting out of the mounting stud, and burn/melt the stud off. Things rusted up enough under there I wasn't going to bother trying to unscrew the nuts.

Still smelling burning corn now and again.

I prefer acetylene to propane for running a torch.

Really feeling it in my shoulders, too. About had to be a contortionist to get it done. Got to use my snap-on impact. Going to get a short piece of half inch hose for it so I can run it off the big air line.

Now today, the same trailer burned up a wheel bearing on the tag axle. At least it was the tag. Flipped a switch on the nose of the trailer and got it off the ground, got the feed delivered. Off to bed. Mabe I can sleep more than 4-5 hours.

Morning from .................... you know.

Coffee, toast and jam. Thanks. Could not stomach the green eggs. That just ain't right! Eggs need to be yellow and white or just yellow if scrambled.

Had new front tires installed on the truck yesterday, plus an alignment. When I got home I checked underneath to double check what the shop had done. Found that they forget to tighten the clamps on one of the steering adjusting sleeves. Hate taking my truck in for other people to work on it!

I am upset! Just checked on some Zerex antifreeze that I had stored and discovered all 3 gallons are gone! The unopened plastic containers are there, no holes in them, no sign of liquid leaking from them, but no antifreeze. These containers have been there for a few years now, so is it possible that the antifreeze can somehow evaporate out of unopened containers? Just checked and see that stuff now sells for $40 a gallon, so that means that I am out $120.

Stan, I can't believe that it would disappear without help. Bet if you fill the jugs, you will find a pinhole or two.

Hey all. Been a while, sorry. Will try to get in here now and then.

Not sure but I think I need to go to the Dr, thought the green stuff under the table was some kind of new fangled coffee creamer/sweetener combo.

I'd stay out of the reading room for a bit if I were you, the fan just shrieked and ran out the front door...

Don't know if I want to come in here or not. What is with all this sick stuff? Behave. Stop it. Shape up.

Nuther week going downhill quick. Grabbed some ph00 and back to entertaining the company. Had my MRI yesterday - - - longest one I have ever had. 52 minutes. Wow. This one shook me -- -- never had that. Guess it is pretty powerful. Stuff they put in your veins makes you itch. Interesting to see how it all comes out. CYA next week.

I had a "leaky" gas can. Filled it with water and a thin film of gas to keep the water from evaporating to test it. Kid's car failed to proceed about 100 feet down the driveway. Man was he ticked.
