Is this the appropriate OT topic for this OT thread, or do you need to contact the admin's directly with a PM?

You know me Rick, I have a tendency to rile some people's feathers with the wrong smiley and/or word choice these days.

Sure great to kick back, pop open a cold beer (mine's A&W) and shoot the breeze. It just doesn't get any better than this.

Does that mean you are going to be around here more or less than you have been lately Scott?

More than lately. I've actually been on a lot recently but only after work and on weekends. I no longer use company equipment for personal stuff. No internet, no personal e-mails, no using their phone. No nothing. I'm strictly buisness when I am at work, 10 hours a day, six days a week but....for the next nine days....woohoo!

Edit, I did provide the company the services of my truck yesterday though. One of my guys drove this big swing mast forklift off of the pavement and into the dirt to retrive some oilwell tooling and promptly got it stuck. Rather than call a tow truck out I used Jezebel to pull it out.

Yeah, it was cool.

I've never seen that one before. Try Making your "Nolan" smaller. That's the only thing I see in your sig that might prompt that message.

Pretty good start to this one. Couple of things I'd like to comment on.....

I agree this will get very confusing, especially since I already merged another OT thread into this one. Apologies for the inconvienience......but I don't think it can be helped. The quote button will be very valuable here.

The diesel guys are not going to get a private OT sub-forum. Since I am a diesel guy I think it's a neat idea, but it won't happen.

The size of the OT thread is a valid concern. What I think will probably happen is every 10-15 pages we'll close one and start another one. Weekly....monthly.....something.

Club FTE is the only place on this site that allows political discussions...Please control the urge.

It's sunny and 94 here

Does This Thread Apply To Jokes That Are Also Fact?

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY


OPEC sells oil for $136.00 a barrel.

OPEC nations buy U.S. grain at $7.00 a bushel.

Solution: Sell grain for $136.00 a bushel.

Can't buy it? Tough! Eat your oil!

Ought to go well with a nice thick grilled filet of camel ***!!!
