It clicks...will buzz while its on, and I can hear it click off again. Really faint sound though, gotta have really good ears to hear it.
Mine has been on there 9 years and never had a problem starting even in the single digits,I assume it's working properly,but I never held my ear to it

Bingo. Also about 75% of all field corn is turned into animal feed, the other 25% is turned into ethanol and other stuff.

Around here corn syrup is a pretty big deal. When we leave town and head South, we go right past the ADM plant, and its a super huge processing plant for corn syrup. Its famous for the smell it emits.

Hey, you started it. You sound like a veteran Iowegian already.

Hey Chris. I was actually thinking about you yesterday. Glad all is going well. I can't believe you aren't sick of donuts and ice cream yet.

One question: is your poop green?

Good morning all! I had a short run with the pups today... just couldn't get the rhythm going but at the 2 mile mark I needed the bathroom BAD, so that was that!! Oh yeah, and it was snowing pretty heavy then too! Nothing's sticking though!

Today is my last full day at work. My contract ends 3/31 and I did not accept an extension since I'm moving back to Maryland. I'm going to work a 12hr day though, just to get some hours in.

My weekend was K U H - R A Z Y ! ! ! I put a bunch of items up on Craigslist to sell, and one of them was a Homelite weed whacker. It needed work so I put it in the free section... if you ever feel like you don't get enough email or phone calls, put something up in the free section!!! I did get a bunch of stuff cleared out though, which is good. I also swapped out rear seats in my truck. I had a near-mint condition rear seat that I put in the bed for drive-in movies, but the one inside got all messed up from the pups. Swapping was very easy actually, and I put a fitted bed sheet over it to protect this one better.

Hope everyone is having a great morning!!
