to walk his wife? bad t rad.

hiding out at home, son texted his jeep won't start, tranny feels weird. worked eight hours in the snow flakes and wind yesterday. best thing about the city(elmira nY) you have people stop and watch you.
having a tractor in the city must be something new, we gave about ten kids rides or let them operate the controls. well fed but so tired and sore.
new wider door and handicap ramp installed out front though, now bro in law can do laps.....snicker

dad and son can bond. in the snow flakes and wind. I am back up.

Good morning all. Wonder of wonders, I can finally see for more than a half a mile. We have had a weird weather pattern for the last couple of weeks and we have been blanketed in fog, day and night. On top of that the temperatures have been staying just below freezing. We have had some really fun morning commutes with the highways covered in a nice thick and slick layer of ice. The weather started to change in the middle of the afternoon yesterday and we actually saw the sun, not just light but the actual sun for a few minutes just before it dipped behind the mountains. Overnight all of the clouds cleared out and we can finally see stars and even Calgary on the western horizon, about 25 miles away. Today is supposed to be sunny and the temperature is supposed to skyrocket to 52F. Wahoo!! It is none too soon. My wife told me on Friday that if she didn't see the sun soon, she was going to go 'bat-crap crazy'. Whew, now I won't have to deal with that.

Have a great day everyone. I am going to get off the couch today and be productive. There is always stuff to do and when the weather cooperates, it is time to get things done.

Umm Rick, Ed, Heidi and Shorts, wasn't one of you supposed to bring the donuts?

Morning all.

Gained an hour of sleep last night and STILL overslept. Not enough to be late for the class we're teaching but late enough so I'm all out of synch.

It's cold up here. And it snowed. I'm not liking it. It's like being in Maine without the mountains.

A rope for the coffee, not his wife.

Hahahahaha Going to blame the whole sorted mess on an extra hour of sleep? The next thing you know you'll be blaming the time change on the government.

Morning Scott, Heidi, and, and, and.....

Sorted mess? If it was sorted it would be orderly and arranged and it is not. I believe you meant 'sordid'.

I put one on mine years ago, a word of caution. With a stock fuel pump and the added restriction of a 2 micron filter you will draw the fuel supply pressure down to zero really quick.

Morning fellow break roomers.

Scott, I need 2000 batteries and smoke detectors. Can you help??


I would never put a photo/electric detector near a kitchen, but if you like go ahead and be sure to report back what happens. I have a combo at the end of my hall where all the bedrooms meet. A single ionization in all the bedrooms and one of each in the basement. Basement and hall detectors are all hard wired together.

He ain't talking down to you. He's trying to educate you. Now there's an exercise in futility.

I knew I'd have to explain this one to you. It's the sign itself that's condescending, not what he said to me. And now this post too.

Hey, one of you lazy buns get over here and install my push-lock fittings. They are being mean.
