Hey buddy, hows the weather in Cali these days? Been raining like mad here all day. I saw a pic of your truck earlier all clean, it looked great!! Nice exhaust tip
The weather here has been amazing these past two weeks! 60 to 70*'s everyday! Im extremely excited tomorrow night is our season opener for our local oval dirt track!
Ya i work out there as one of the "push truck" drivers. Its a good reason to go beat on a 85 chevy half ton... lol. Plus best seats for watching the races and free diner!
There's band playing a special show tonight in Austin Texas, at Stubb's Barbecue, downtown. The only way in is to be invited. Not tickets are being sold.
Guess who got invited? Jezebel leaves for Austin at 5pm.
Just got back from the shop and he couldnt find anything wrong with any of the front end components on the truck. Said the ball joints were tight and everything looked good. The guy is a good friend of ours so when I need something looked at professionally I head down there. I could use his lift but he stays sooooooo busy!
Job interview went well. Hes a diesel fanatic and has 6 of the dam things. Hes a retired CPA that owned his own firm. Interview was at 3...I was in there BSin with him til 9! Sharin stories from our experiences in property management and of course diesels. We didnt even start getting into the job until 7! He said hes spread really thin and needs someone to help him fill vacancies and hopefully expand and buy more properties. He even said hes toyed with the idea of giving his employee 50% of some of the new homes he buys without being financially tied to them. He has one of everything. Man lift, gutter machine truck, 3 moving vans, old ambulances, a vehicle lift in his 13000 square foot warehouse, FULL body shop, dump trucks, dump trailers, carpet stretchers and his own chinese restaurant! He said he gets bored very easily and the CPA deal didnt appeal to him anymore...so now he does a little bit of everything. I probably should be getting a call next week!

I have no idea it is still safe to run in equipment, I hope if they do run in it theirs that it doesn't damage anything.

I asked if he needed/wanted me to bring him up anything but his brother has everything covered right now. If I don't hear back from him before his surgery I told him that I will call tomorrow evening to check on him and let everyone know how he is doing. Lisa, he wanted me to congratulate you on getting the job you wanted!
I was wondering where he was! Not like him to at least pop in and say hey to everyone. If yall hear from him after surgery please let us know how it went!

No he didn't. I've seen pictures of Jim...
You should make it a habit more often. You dont know how much fun they can be. Especially making a beer run in a cop car...I know the people were lookin at us like wtf...
