James, sorry about the problems you're having. I visited V.B a few times and liked it a lot.

Who's got the coffee pot, I've been waiting for a refill?!

I suppose you guys didn't know Top already puts Rotella in his coffee. Kinda helps stuff come out. A little bit a Howe's on the weekends.

Being that the last time anyone cleaned the coffee pot, Hoss was still a new member... you cant blame Top for trying to add something to the coffee!

James,
Look up Felix Arnett (Arnie) or Mike Gray there in VB. We were shipmates 30 odd years ago. Arnie was working at PNSY and Mike was chasing ambulances. They've got a bunch of contacts in the area and will help you get squared away. Tell the FTB2(SS) Bruce Lipe from the Wilson Gold crew sent ya.

OBTW,
I'M HOME!!!!!!!
Texas can now safely bring back out their liquor and women.
Tim, thanks for the hospitality. Enjoyed the visits and the meeting of the family. NOTE: If anyone is in that area and decides to drop by Tims to visit, get a good grill guard first. My third visit was charm, connected with Bambi at the low water crossing. No damage, thanks to the rubber bumper. Now I have to wash the rest of the truck to match the clean spot on the front.
Uneventful trip back. Every State Trooper in east Texas was concentrated around New Boston. Must have been 15 in a couple mile area. Looked like a used car lot.
richard, you did well on the deployment of the trash cans. The dents I don't mind because it shows that they have been used. HOWEVER, you don't use the oil you just drained from the engine to wipe them down with. Check TM 9-TRASH-CAN-12 under Preventive Maintenance Checks and Services. Follow the directions and you'll be squared away.
Ed, get your sorry, taking advantage of the government, laying around the office all day, typical contractors behind back to work.
Top, how's the leg? I realize you couldn't put much of a boot in their backside while I was gone. With that in mind, I'll stand in for you and take care of your light work.

MOVE IT PEOPLE, YOU'RE WASTING DAYLIGHT!!!!!!!

Sure does feel good to be back.

Shortround, did I see you in the American Idol in Houston preview last night? I guess calling it a training exercize would be a good cover up.

Winter weather advisory's for today, suppose to be some high winds and get real cold. Cold night last night, my bed warmer was out of town last night.

Morning all, a bit nipply here today. Side roads still had ddep snow from yesterday. Surprised to see the highway was cleared nicely, but too cold for the salt to work.

Try to throw some jocularity on the radio and the inspector calls to bite your head off. 8 day weeks at THIS job are a bit long without some sarcastic humor. Course' there's a lot I could get done with a couple extra days off.

YAHOOOOOO! Snow day today, no school anywhere in this part of the state. Got to go out and blow out the driveway and shovel off the deck. 6 degrees and lots of snow with high winds. Good day to stay inside.

Redleg, inspectors just have no sense of humor!
