Exclamation Good Idea !!!

Hi there Bruce, yep it was just a routine follow up with my Cardiologist. I had a 3 way by-pass in 2/11 and I wanted a second opinion on if I lived thru it ... LOL
I've been back up to full speed since last fall and haven't even looked back, kinda like "Damn the torpedo's ... and double cheese's and all that stuff and full speed ahead"

A GTG and a shootin match is right up my alley sounds like fun (chevy owners could hold the targets) just kiddin !!! Do the GTG's usually happen on the weekend or ??? Could we have a "parts swap meet" at the same time ??? Never been to a GTG like that !!! got stuff to do ... talk later ... Dave

I dunno Dave........ I have worked hard trying to get GTFs going, but other than an engine pulling party which attracted three California FTE peeps and three from Nevada the most have been me meeting one or two others. The engine party was fun, got the mechanic part done in about 30 minutes then spent a couple of hours over lunch at a local casino in Carson City.

So what's the usual GTF? Coffee or beer I guess. I'm up for most things. It's always good to meet the FTE gang.

Cheers, Mr. Two Stents

Morning NV & FTE friends

Here's hoping that today rocks! Have a terrific Tuesday!

I guess it's supposed to be super windy & cold again today. I'm not looking forward to that at all. I have to unpck a few more boxes this morning & take them to a friend that's moving. I've brought her like 20 boxes already, but she's got a fairly big house. Atleast I'm getting rid of all the boxes we used to move!
Well, I better shake a leg...TTYL

Hey Thomas, good to see you here! Morning Gigs. Donna, always busy have a good day.

I don't think the wind out at your new place is worse than Moundhouse, It was just windy as hell all over the place. I was just sure we would lose power that day cause there were so many branches down. Luckily it didn't go out but pine cones were flying like missles!

Happy Tuesday.

I'm off to the Brewery Arts Center today.

Oh yes, I think we are going to adopt a little dog named Marlie on Thursday. She will be a companion for Romeo if they take to each other well. Her owner is a dog trainer who lives in the valley. It's a mature dog but she is allergic to the flora around where she lives. Should be better for her up on the mountain.

Cheers!

Goodmorning all

Hi Gerry!

Happy Hump Day!

Another major windy day here. It's been blowing really hard since about 2 am. I imagine I'll be getting a call from Cammy & Nathan that my house is probably blowing apart AGAIN! Atleast I thought ahead & sent Jimmy to work this morning with his tools & needed supplies to possibly fix the siding should rip off again. I think I'm going to be stuck here all day. Probably not a bad thing, because I have ALOT more boxes to go through & unpack/repack.
Have a great day!

Donna - Sorry to hear about the house again. Get some 100mph tape and put it on there and you'll be good to go (military people will know what I'm talkin' about. )

Howdy all!

Everyone having a good day so far? I hope so! Looks like it's a nice day outside. I'm probably going to ride my bike up to put in a couple of applications at a couple of security guard places. I figure why not. It's getting to the point that I need to take a job anywhere and I shouldn't have any problem qualifying for that, but who knows. That's what I thought about other jobs so far.

I also told the wife that I would clean the house (especially the bathrooms...what the hell was I thinkin'?!), so I best get to it!
