If anyone needs a spare cheap hitch, Princess Auto have the dual and tri-ball type on sale right now. Picked up the tri-ball (1 7/8", 2", 2 5/8" sizes) today for $18. Heck of a deal. Cheaper than buying just the 2 5/8" ball at regular price ($33, I think)

Handy to have a spare one around for those short trips or when a buddy needs you to move his boat.

Washed the truck today. Supposed to snow tonight, but I'm betting it won't get too sloppy on my short drive tomorrow.

Could it be the last -20 or colder wake up for the year? Looks like it for the next couple weeks here in Central anyways! It's gonna get sloppy out so better check those wipers and make sure the washer fluid is topped up.

I'm headed to Vegas tomorrow, it's going to get sloppy there. Will be nice to escape all the doom and gloom around my office.

Well Gentlemen, I made is back from sin city. I haven't reconciled all my receipts yet, but I think I lost less money this year than usual. Although, when you factor in the exchange, it doesn't look as good.
Now need to spend a couple of days drinking lots of water, eating healthy food, and getting adequate sleep, maybe I'll feel like a full human by the weekend.

Apparently while I was gone spring arrived. I see we even have some rain the forecast. I love spring rains, so nice to get some of the dust washed away.

So the big question is should we say good bye to this thread and start the new spring/summer thread or wait a couple weeks

Well, the old Spring/summer thread was 127 replies, this one is already at 372. I would wait until the calendar says spring, but if anyone feels like making a new one, I'll chime in to that thread instead of this one.
This is still a quiet little chapter, but it's showing that it's now dead, which is nice.

Spring hasn't sprung yet?, can't wait for this season to end. Some drunk in a white 98 chev truck with a ladder on it turned right 160' before the stop sign and totaled his truck on my 79 f350 rear bumper and frame rail. To bad for him, yeah right. Found out my all peril doesn't cover me unless I'm in the truck or the truck is parked inside my lotlines but not if it's parked on the street in front of my house. He deals with Cooperators and their playing the huh, what?, accident?, are you sure you didn't back into him while you were lying on your couch, game. To bad the cops showed up as I was walking out of the house, his truck looked like one of the trucks my drunk neighbour and his friends and family drives, same brand, color and ladders. Start the new thread, please, Having the truck written off has been a good week so far this year so I need a change off karma. I'm dealing with a Government employee that's decided to swallow my CPP so that I can get $240 in medical benefits and until she gets back on MARCH 1ST!!, I can't get my CPP reinstated. Yeah I know it's the 22nd, it's just the way my winter has been. Start the new thread.
