Sup folks. Hada pretty busy day. Decided to haul some of the logs we cut over the weekend, before the snow hits. Couldnt get or usual hauler so we put the PSD to work. Did great but my d@mn Ebrake crapped out first thing this morning. It stuck on, liked to never got it to release(didnt wanna cut the cable). Something happened in the pedal itself. I just repaired it not to long ago after a piece broke in it. So looks like I'm off to check out Ed the parts guy.
When I checked the weather this morning they were calling for 3-5"s but now they have cut it back to 1-3" with sleet and freezing rain. Looks like the PSD is getting plugged in tonight so I can get the wife off to work in the morning.

Now, I have heard of "luncheon". In fact, I kind of like luncheons.
It came from potheads, so who knows why they said it but its pretty common back in my area.

Everyone that drives around here must be wearing a blindfold..Id put money on it. It was explained to me that the more populated areas have people from so many back rounds and different areas of the country that they dont know how to act with the new people they meet so they come off as rude, which makes the other person rude and so on...

I know the feeling about the drivers,I think we have the worse mixture here,from all over the US,Canada and Europe.Add to that mixture Mexico,Cuba and Haiti and all seem to be mad at the world
Ain't any self respecting locals left so they have to be rude to themselves

Hey folks. Haven't been in here for quite a while. Not even going back to catch up, at least before this page. It took me YEARS to find mine. I started looking at 7.3s way back in 04-05 time frame. Bought my truck in 2007. LOL....

Hope everyone is well. I'm busier than a one-armed paper hanger these days, so it's tough to keep up.

Later peeps!! I'll check back in a couple weeks. LOL....
