Hello everyone:

I'll make it a point to get back in more regularly.

Looking for work again. I have contractor position job interview at Sikorsky but I don't know when, its been rescheduled twice due to weather.

There is work over in Angola, the company trains you to service their equipment. That one has my eye but the recruiter is out this week.

I see we have more members, nice to make your acquaintance.

My truck now has a new battery box with two bays, all out of 1/8" plate. One bay has a pair of Group 49 AGM starting batteries, the other bay has a pair of Group 34M AGM deep cycle batteries. Right now the deep-cycles are not cabled up, I still have to run all new cables and install the Cole Hersee 48161 250 amp isolator.

The only part of the building that is still standing is the Blimpie and dunkin donuts (but thats because they werent free span). Whats even worse is they hadnt even started to put a dent in the multi million dollar building cost.

Really stinks because i was planning on starting to practice there every thursday from this week till the first race in may.
Looks like it's time to take up sno-cross!

Evening folks.

Dave I'm glad to see you are back safe in the US.

WOW is it windy and cold out.

OK so a father asked his 10-year old son if he knew about the birds and bees.
"I don't want to know" the boy said, bursting into tears. "Promise me you won't tell me."
COnfused, the father asked what was wrong.
The boy sobbed,
"When I was six, I got the 'There's no Easter Bunny' speech.
At seven, I got the 'There's no Tooth Fairy' speech.
When I was eight, you hit me with the 'There's no Santa' speech.
If you're going to tell me that grown-ups don't really get laid, I'll have nothing left to look forward to."

Are you having problems?
Or do you just want a new truck?
