I can paint a truck but not the inside of a house. And I never paint sober.

NO new carpet! Long story, but no. Anyway I quit for the day. Every time I open the back fridge that cold beer is there and I'm going to get it out of there! No yard work, just going to hang in the corner!!!

That depends on how much beer is involved. We'd spend more time picking up the empties than we would cleaning the garage!

Wow what an invite! Damn it's really not that far. I bet I could be there a shade less than 3 hours without Herself in the truck and the radar/laser detector and a few to have on the way! Uh oh, there I go. Better go pick up Mike on the way and HE can drive.

Well technically we would be picking up the garage at that point too. So killing 2 birds with one stone. I'm just gonna start out in the corner and wait for you guys to get there, good possibility that I fall off my stool by the time you arrive.

We really need to plan a sneak attack on the Tiki Bar and campground sometime! Half a dozen Super Dutys and a Jeep all with camp gear, put the campground on it's ear! Boy I've been in the corner for a while now. Put new line on 6 rods though.

yey it's friday however, I have my work ahead of me on the rig, stopped to get the stuff to do my rear brakes and on the way home the fronts started making noise. Found out the clips that the pads slide on snapped, rubbing on the rotor as it turned. Then I discovered it probably snapped because the caliper slides were seized up barely moving.
Well, got the fronts all back together and replaced all clips and greased it all properly, now on to the rear drums as originally planned.... currently waiting on the PB blaster to penetrate overnight after some persuasion with a 3lb sledge.
