Enjoy that birthday MIKE, they keep adding up to the point you quit counting.

PW - - I told you the wierdies would only get wierder (is that a word???) when they got flooded. It was pretty nasty looking on TV. Glad we faired well - - just some tree debris in the yard.

Ya'll have a good one today.

Bob

I should probably whisper this for Mike:
Happy Birthday
(The aspirin is in the cupboard next to Ed's spare coffee cup)

Started a project where I am DWI. They think I am clairvoyant. I told them that was not in my job grade description. I don't get to be clairvoyant until I get 2 more promotions.

You would probably be the only consultant in Bibb and Tuckers , sounds good to me.

You better not be contagious (don't sneeze on the fish while you are out there, as I'm sure that fishing is what the doctor ordered to cure strep).

5'ver Bob
Hope all is well

PW
Hope your friends get help

Chris,
Glad you are back on your feet again, hope the back stays in good shape.

Ed,
The fax is set to "receive" for the snausage and eggs (right, like there is any extra )

Flash,
Ed took care of breakfast this morning, looks like you get today off.
I'll try to remember donuts tomorrow.

Gotta go,
~Rob

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MIKE! Do you realize you're 245 in dog years?

Quite cool here this AM... 25F. I was gonna get an early start on a piece of equipment I'm working on that's sitting out in the yard, but I think I'll wait 'til at least 35 degrees. DNR man is coming at 9 anyway to walk the woodlot with me and point me in the right direction to comply with my forestry plan.

's a bit weak this AM. It actually pours. Something must be wrong with the coffee maker.

Ev'ryone have a great day!

chaikwa.

HOHN, sure is nice to see Dad’s that are crazy about their kids. We have a lot of that here on DTR.

JKE, hope you get to feeling better soon!

Hotdram, I’ve had 2 days off! Chrisreyn brought donuts yesterday. By the way, Ed’s wife cooked the breakfast. Good thing too or we all could have died of palate poisoning.

Chrisreyn, grandkid are da bomb! Your gonna love it!

Better to go to the Doc and get it taken care of before it gets too bad. Mr. Flash waits until he's completely down then it takes longer to get over and cost more. Must be one of those "Guy Things"

Ohhhh... I just got home.... The tea pot is going strong... I'm lucky no hangover... But I feel like I'm needing some serious kick in the pants...

Thank you all for the HB wishes!

That sounds like a typical Idaho town, when you say "the bar" you mean just that, the only bar in town.
No there is 3 bars in this little 440 population town.. I hit 2 of them last night...

HEY MIKE! How ya doing this morning????
Well no hangover but it would be nicer to sleep on a soaf instead of the floor...

I hope you like the cake we faxed ya
Hey someone dailed the wrong number...

Once again thank you all... I made it to 35 Years old... I even gave early notice about my Birthday... And the doughnuts are not here yet.... Geez!

Saw the doc today, got the stitches out.
I can bend it over 90 degrees, still got swelling but can go up a flight of stairs now without going one at a time.
Going down, the quads cramp up nice and tight on the 3rd step.
Stops a guy in his tracks!
Drove the truck for the first time in 12 days.
A few more weeks and I begin my hardest training of my career.

A couple of the world athletes and former pro ball players have put together a program for me. I have never followed a routine or a program. Its time!

Goals in the program is to drop 25 pounds, build up my endurance and increase strength. Winter will be fun.

Scotty

Good morning all.

Looks like the man with the equipment can get the job done. Found scrapes 5' high on some trees. Biggest track I found was a little bigger than a silver dollar. Is that a big one? This area is not known for REAL big deer like out west. Found mud marks on several trees about 2' off the ground. I'm assuming hog.

FD - not a "man thing". I hate going. If I cannot work, then I'll go. I'd rather spend money at Midway than the DR. gotta have your priorities straight ya know.

Ya'll get to work...and have a great day.

mmmm...still burns. - JKE

Almost Friday.
Nudder 12 hour day yesterday.
Today's 8 hour (I hope) day will seem like a vacation.

Weather's turning colder, frost on the ground just outside the DC area.
Looks like it's time to find my electrical timer and the extension cord for the block heater.

Waiting on more Ebay parts for the Geezer Glide.
Almost time to clean it up and cover it for the winter......but not quite yet.

Y'all B safe,

Mornin’

Have to call the RV dealer today about the furnace. Sounds like the blower has a bad bearing, making all kinds of racket. This Texan must have heat! Oh well doo doo occurs, it’s under warranty.

Speaking of heat it’s suppose to get up in the 70’s this weekend.

Breakfast is served! For your eating enjoyment today we have ham and cheese omelets, hashbrowns scattered smothered and covered with buttered toast and jelly. Plenty of hot

Y'all enjoy and have a great day!
