I actually was starting to get something done. I have a bunch of billing to do so I'm on the computer emailing one way or the other. Usually have the new email notification popping up every 5 seconds it seems.

I thought you knew better by now. As far as lines go, a nice pair doesn't require any conversation to go with it, and before I was married, I've fallen for the line "Hello"

Anyway. Here's a clean fresh OT for ya'
So what ever happend to that 270 some odd pages ago?

I'll check it out, Ray -- Thanks!! I think it's the fuel pump thing because it runs great when I press the prime button, but dies a few seconds later. Seems like fuel starvation...

My lawn mower was doing that this summer. I took apart the entire throttle assembly and found a broken linkage...so the only time it got fuel was when I flooded it with the primer button. I rigged it all back together and it works good now

no point in a pitcher of them, we wont get through all the flavors that way. Cris has dibbs on cherry as of now, the rest are up for grabs.

I just learned I dont have lumber coming tomorrow in time so it looks like I'll be another half day, which means I'll get sucked into the ot again... I might need a new sticker instead of the PAA one, might need an O/T anonymous.

I gotta go down to Camp Pendleton and change the wifes brakes at the hobby shop. I'd do it at the house but they need some cutting, and I don't have a lathe....yet.....

Anyone know who sell the cryo'd powerslots and Hawk pads the cheapest? I need some myself
I got mine from KT performance. I'm sure the folks here have good prices on them also.

It is a Dodge, half ton gasser for those of you that asked.

Still going to install the kill switch but the urgency is not quite as high as it was this morning.

Susan won't let me bring hookers home, so there's no risk of that happening to me.
I guess it was "No great loss".

He should have had her in the shower with him, to eliminate this situation. Live and learn I guess. Julie isnt cool with hookers either, and my truck is locked in the fence, in the shop, then locked and alarmed again. I think I'm in good shape. There are almost as much money in tools in the truck as the truck itself so it would probably destroy my company if something happened. Thats why the .40 is always with me.
I always got the 9. Going to renew my CC permit this week. Its not up for renewal for another year, but due to certain circumstances beyond my control, I'm not taking any chances!

Having tube wars, 2-3 of us trying to kill each other. Pushing, shoving, jumping at each other is highly encouraged. I just won! My friend once said after I took him out, that he didnt think it was possible to kick himself in the berries. Guess it is if you get hit hard enough.
Attachment 11925
I remember watching my buddy eat it really bad while riding a tube like that once. He went up and his feet came down and caught the water first and he went head over heels, face first into the water. It was funny as he!!.

ahh, the good old days............ you can keep them!!


the new computer controlled, climate controlled equipment with premium sound systems of today almost makes it a pleasure to go to work in the morning.
Cable dozer's and pony motor's. How old are you?
