Afternoon folks.

Mark, at least I was clothed for a while...

I just got back from a trip to Amana, Iowa....a historic German colony. Got some more locally made yummies to take back home over Thanksgiving.

Actually I think I'll be able to fit all of it in a soft side 12 pack cooler, except the wine. This will be it. If I get anymore I won't have room for more than two pairs of jeans in my suitcase

Evening, all. Sure was a long day today. Bored out of my mind at work. Was real slow for sure.

Didn't see but two customers in the last hour I was there.

Tom: That's an awesome deal you got, man. Basically you got paid 50 bucks to take 3 plows.

I've got to get our plow truck set up properly soon. It needs a bed put on and the plow wiring/controller installed. It's got a Fisher mount on it but no wiring. We've got a 9' Fisher MC we're going to put on it. Lotta blade but it's a 7.3 so I think it can handle it.

Naw we'll be just fine, it breaks up coming through here, not like the plains states where it has nothing to stop it. Anyhow Tom is getting the brunt of it now.

What a coincidence. That's how I feel any time I drive through Jersey.

I guess I ought to make sure the doors and windows on the truck are shut tight.

That's only around the arm pits of NJ, it's different out here.

Usually I'm still irritated enough from driving through New York or so dreading the drive through New York that Jersey isn't too pleasant for me.

No offense to any of the New Yorkers here but 98% of New Yorkers can't drive worth a dang. Although CT drivers usually aren't much better. In most places the far left lane is the fastest lane of travel. When you enter CT the left and right lanes switch. The far right lane is fastest most of the time. Just pass the vehicles that really do belong there when you can and keep on haulin azz past everybody else in the "slow" lane.
