Hey AlwaysWorking - - that is just what we needed this morning to get us up and running. Good job. Love that scooter turning to the motorcycle in the mirror - - great.
Gorgeous morning out, but holy smoke is it ever cold out there. Mercy sakes. It is only 52 degrees and heading for a high of 67. Digging in the bottom of the closet for my winter coats - - can't find them. Horrors. Guess I will have to layer in for this winter blast.

Ya did good, Cin - - good "smooth" ph00 and a few nibbles of something in the pan. Couldn't quite tell what it was after all these other diesel sniffers were digging in the pan, but it still tasted good.
Gotta run - - stuff to do and places to go. Have a great one, gang - - and think of me while I shiver my way thru the day.

Mornin' all
NW Houston, 46* and sunny, with a hi 0f 68 or so.
Been busy, and slow. Prudent student has had a lot of work to do and down load stuff so I have been plugging her computer directly in to the DSL modem. 100mps. The wireless router will drop off, and it and the modem are both new, swapped out the others for the same problem.
Still lunch laddy duty.
Breakrooms looks good. Dragon has been out for a walk and now sleeping in the corner.
Have a good un, and be safe out there.

#2 already? Everything's early this year.
Marc, nice steamer! (I meant the train picture
) They cancelled the big one comeing up for the color tour this year.
In for some overtime today. Hopefully I'll have an early birthday present from Rock River Arms soon. Gonna get a lower reciever today. Probably do the upper for Christmas. Suppose to get a break from the cold later and a dry out, I hope.

Mornin' all!
-12*F and falling this AM. Nice and brisk!
Took Mama to work today and dropped her car off to have the tires changed for the winter set. I thought about getting a set of cheapo wheels for it but I ain't keping the darn thing. I hate that T&C and the dealer. Probly trade it in next summer. After I get the tires on it's over to the stereo shop to get the auto start fixed. Stuck in valet mode somehow. I think.
Need to play in the Armory some more later and clean off the driveway a bit. Only two day more off then I gotta get back to "work". My honeydo list is getting longer and longer..... go figure.
Good #2 this mornin'. I start another pot.

Good afternoon everyone. Another slow day today, only thing that saved it was a screw up on the job I'm on right now. Electrician the other day wired up the Main and Aux Generators.... backwards. The electrician that was assigned to it today realized someone wired it up wrong and began correcting the problem. He need some help moving cables and tightening bolts so I gave him a hand even though it's not my craft. All i can say is the electricians I work with must go home with headaches everyday after having to mess with the wiring in one of those locos, they look like a nightmare. GF passed her first test today, she has one more to do then she'll be a liscenced insurance agent. I'm very happy for her. I'm going out to her place tonight. Gotta order some new tires too for my truck. I'm lookin at getting Cooper Discoverer M+S in a 265/75/16 load range E. They look like my old Michilein LTX MS's, they were a good tire too me and the coopers look like a good tire too. I've heard alot of good about coopers in the past. This spring I'm going to find a 285 anda new set of wheels for the summer time. Oh yeah, I woke up this morning to snow on my truck but it melted off fast. Thanks Marc and Red for pointing the snowblowers my way, been waiting for it to get here.

Evening all. Slow one here today also, only 4 hours on the loader. Got some good news, a buddy called me this afternoon to tell me diesel on the other side of B'ham is now below $3 a gallon.
WooHoo $2.99 fuel!
Yes, I'll drive across town to save $.20+ a gallon but I'll get at least 100 gallons when I do.
Looks like Cin isn't the only one playing bronco buster with the floor care equipment around here.
Speaking of sparky, she hasn't been here since this morning.
