Mike, I'm not sure I know what day it is for me.....I think its Thursday morning.

Hailstone.....I'm not sure I follow the question......you mean for my leave?
If so.......late November I hope.
I have one guy to finish training. Note sure when he rotates back thru. Although I am very confident he'll do a good job. He gets kinda frazzeled, experiance fixes most of those problems.
Have at least one more position to train....but theres a line for the job, and they havent picked anyone yet.

Hi Birdhunter1, I am here, sort of.

Or as peppy says "Here I sit.....hanging out at my internet 'bar'......on a Saturday night...all the way from my desk".

Hopefully, I won't be too busy. So let those keyboard rip......

Does anyone know that the longest thread he has been? It seems to me that this one is getting up there.

I think the longest one is one posted by this wacko french-type user, asking about 12 inch lifts on a dually or something like that, and his spelling and grammar was so out of control that it just kept going on and on .... and on. Not to mention, Yeti I think and Abendx kept it going for quite a while.

EDIT: I take it back... that thread was about a 25 inch lift ( ) by this fella named Sil\/er... and it only lasted about 275 posts... most of it was bickering and was pretty darn hilarious. Here it is if you wanna check it out:

By the way... here's a search I did revealing the longest threads on FTE:

Boy, am I bored.

Lol.. that was reaaallll smoooth, peppy. I had a hard time even figuring out what you were talking about

Even though I need to get up in seven hours, I don't want to go to bed yet... I think I'll go play some Halo! (the video game, not the parachute jump ) BTW... I first heard of the Halo jump in the James Bond movie "Tomorrow Never Dies" - it looked pretty darn cool... so did that video you posted.

It loosk like we are still lightweights in the longest post category, but I bet there are less arguments on this one than on some of those. Quality over quantity anyday.

Ryan and Mike, this strange thing you talk about called sleep, what is that? Between my various farm duties, working and my occasional hunting adventures sleep comes on my weekends.

You may be getting a job in Ohio? Would that mean you'd have to leave Texas if you got the job?

EDIT - woops, didn't see the new posts when I posted that... But still, peppy... hope the job works out well; be sure to let us know if you get it.
