Know anybody who's looking for a trained and experienced diesel mechanic? I really need to get out of this place I'm at.

Alot of farmers are usually looking for good mechanics. Now wouldn't be a bad time to go and start talking with some of them as they should be about ready to get their trucks and equipment ready for planting. Also Giltner and Jackson trucking are usually looking for mechanics.

What are you doing for V-Day. I ordered some cookies for the wife from the cookie basket which should be delivered Friday. Saturday we are supposed to take the kids swimming and then out to eat. Just keeping things simple.

That's pretty crazy how it thrashed that rear wheel - other than that it doesn't look too bad.

Did you get a little rash out of the deal?

Like Steve said other than the rear wheel it all looks pretty much cosmetic.
