Hey Mark......my Dad has lived with COPD for over 7 years now, it's the beginning stages of Emphysema. We live at 7000 ft elevation, and he gets around just fine with no oxygen. He does however do breathing treatments everyday, they just involve a couple different inhalers, and it takes some realllllly deep breaths. It gives the lungs a workout, and a shot of steroids......you'll get thru this fine buddy

Mark good luck, If anyone can fight this its you.
Baby bunny Congrats on your grades.
They have it in MD now. 12am-6am unless your going to and from work. I take it they didnt have it when you were here.
Shes more of a girly girl, and she likes expensive stuff..
lol
Those places make me laugh, I love it lol.
Back in MD I never got pulled over for my tint and it wasnt close to being legal. I just go ahead and do it if it was me, just do the legal limit of a little bit more.
Way to go Scott, I love to do stuff like that.
I had a kid in a miata today who wouldnt let me pass them, he would slow down and when I went to go around him he sped up. He did that about 4 times and then got in a left turn lane, as I went by he fliped me off...For what I have no idea I was just trying to get around him. If there wasnt people on the road behind me I woulda locked up the brakes, backed up and asked that piece of chit what I did wrong..

lolForgot to mention I almost took out an Impala with my drop hitch today. Some woman, riding *** putting on makeup.
I agree 100%. I think cell phones should be banned for ALL drivers, even experienced ones. I know I might get flack for that, but I think 100% of a person's attention should be kept on the road, especially when driving an 8,000# hunk of steel.

Ok, get her a designer purse in her favorite color (ask some other girl what a designer purse is, but women love them, lol). And put something sweet and home-made on the inside. Like a hand made coupon for a back massage and a nice dinner or something. She'll love it.
You didn't do anything wrong. He had a classic case of small **** disease

Mark, Sorry to hear about this new development. You have the support of all of us.
Great job Baby Bunny.
You too Scott.
Chris, don't you just love morons on the road. This seams to only happen to me when I am on my way somewhere and cannot stop to read them the riot act.
Edit: Holy cow Lisa!

Thank you Chris, and I am going to follow the doctors orders to a T.
Have I shared my story about the moron on the motorcycle that was stupid enough to flip me off when I was about 30 years old? I did not care how many folks were around. I left him a bloody mess laying on top of his bike wondering what in the hell happened to him.

I see that the OT has been busy today.
Been busy here too. cannot wait to go home. One cool thing today though, used Jezebel to pull a BIG forklift and two BIG steel bars out of the mud out in the material yard.
Lots of guys standing around watching too. I had a little bit of puffy chest afterwards.

Those are custom mudflaps actually. They are big rig mudflaps, cut down a few inches. I welded the mounting brackets directly to my hitch. To answer your question, they are huge and don't fit in the wheel wells. They still do their job. This truck is a rock flinger, and I figured $20 in scrap steel and a pair of heavy rubber trucker flaps were better than paying for a broken windshield.
Here are some pics of the setup:

I guess so, but one day hes going to have a broken nose to go along with that too..I think its a common thing in most states now.

Yep and I actually thought about that today when I wanted to kill this kid.

I got to be Santas helper today and pull a Fedex truck out of a very muddy driveway. A buddy owns the fedex routes around here, and he called in a panic cause he didnt want to wait on a wrecker, and knew I lived just down the road. 10 minutes later and all thos packages were on their way to being delivered. HE OWES ME LUNCH.

Yeah pretty good!
Congrats on the exam.
Bummer
It finally dropped to $2.52 here.
I have the Lowrance ifinder H20. Got it for it being waterproof and it will float with the proper batteries. I have the topo maps and road maps for it. I'm hoping to get the Navionics lake maps for xmas.
They'll really come in handy the next time I'm down at Buggs/ John H. Kerr reservoir.
Still is 5% on the back and either 35% or 50% on the sides. We had a nice
state trooper around here that liked to give tint tickets but he got relocated. I went to high school with the guy that wound up tinting my windows after I had a nice go around with another place.
I see cars all the time around here with illegal tint and never hear of any tickets. I will be going back and getting at least 20% on my side glasses. I think I would rather have 5% though.

In the states tinted windows are only illegal on the windshield. On other windows, you just have to be able to see through them. With my tints, people can't see me from the outside. I prefer it that way.
