Sounds like a rough one Pepster. 96.5 hours. WOW!!

Between work and the farm I've been doing close to that up till this past weekend when all I did was hunted. At least if you do it you'll have good company here on FTE. My midnight partner and I switched weekends this week so each of us got 4 days off, but 10 days on. I work this entire weekend.

Last midnight for three weeks. Leave the office at 0600 and make a road trip to Warren Ohio for work. Round trip puts me on road for at least eight hours plus the six hours in the office. Going to be a long day, but glad this is my last one.

It's a rough night. I brought my laptop in and I'm watching Christmas Vacation 2. I don't think it is near as funny as Christams vacation, it's all cousin Eddy and no Clark or Ellen.

I didn't either till I stopped by the video store before I came in and there it was on the new releases shelf. Cousin Eddy, his wife, Third, Audra, Uncle Nick and some hot Hawain chick. Not to bad of a movie, typical Cousin Eddy antics but it really needs Clark and Ellen to be on the same page as Christams Vacation. Did you ever see the original Vacation? A true classic in my opinion.

I hear for RangerED tonight. I had sent him an email asking how things were going and he said he would have posted on here but he didn't want to violate prodocol and post during daylight hours. Anyway he said he and his wife are settling in just fine in Arizona, he said the hardest part is going from a foreman in a unionized facility to being an officer in the military again. He also said he was addicted to a new forum called the deisel stop.

It's actually a busy night so far so to speak. My boss had left a hefty list of changes that needed to be made in a system so I spent the last 2 hours doing that. About another 1/2 hours worth of work left to get done by 0630 and that's about it, other than FTE, Bass Pro forums, tractorbynet.com, and a few other sites of interest overnight.

How's life in your neck of Kentucky.

Got a good joke about KY later.

I was just telling the guy that worked the second shift last night that I have yet to get a fire alarm in when I am by myself in here. Spoke to soon, just had one about 20 minutes ago.

Anyway my joke about KY.

This guy is in the hospital for a surgery. He gets his breakfat and wolfes it down but thought the jelly tasted like crap.
The nurse came in later and asked him "how was breakfast?"
He said "not bad except for that Kentucky jelly."
"Kentucky jelly, your diet shouldn't have any jellly in it, what is kentucky jelly?"
"Well hell, the empty package is right there in the trash can, it says KY Jelly."
