That about blows with 6-10 inches coming today/tonight. It hasn't snowed one flake down here yet. I think I will go check the radar. Hopefully it will miss us.

i know what you mean about people tipping well when you pull them out. two springs ago i was at the berea fairgrounds in ohio for a gun show and must have pulled out 12 vehicles. i made $285 and the first couple i refused to take money from. one guy even gave me an old bottle of champagne! i could have stayed there all day but i had had enough

Thats why you always hand them one end of the tow strap/chain and let them hook it up so if it breaks its their falt. Thats what I have always done....they usally are more mad if somthing goes wrong but I just tell them "hey you hooked it up to your plastic bumper" lol

Yea I know what you mean about construction, I'm a Union Plumber and have been off all winter. That's ok though because I have had fun plowing and such.
