Catfish and oyster's fried......Some of my favorites!!
Wire can be pulled out the end. It is not turning the shaft that the feed wheel is on for some reason. Maybe lost a shaft keeper or something. Hopefully not a gear or something. It is a Hobart.

LOL, I'm fine was just dealing with net and doc stuff this week. Had to have the cable company out to replace my modem, it was dying on me after only 4 years. Went back to the ******* Neuro and he told me my headache was basically a 24 week (today) stress/emtional migraine, he is also the same guy that told my dad he was a drug seeking addict and that his bleeding brain tumor wasn't causing him any pain Oh well, he upped my meds so I am dealing with those lovely side effects right now.

Got the wheel bearings done in my sisters car and now it's time to get some gas for the mower and clean up some leaves.

DAMN!! i was just down in the SoCal chapter, and found out that the great state california is gonna start smogging diesels in 2010 or 2011. Everything over 8501 GVRW built after 1998 gets stuck with this crap. That includes me with my e99. Man I've said before and I'll say it again. This state sucks! Aside from the weather and fishing, it sucks. Damned liberal politicians always scamming for a buck. I hope this backfires on them and all kinds of business is lost to neighboring states. Ef em!!

I feel your pain, Brad and Danny.

Because we are 45 miles north of Houston, it is required that gassers be smogged. I would imagine it's only a matter of time before they come after the diesels too, especially since diesels are so popular here in Texas.

Lots of missed $$$ for the politicians and you know that they won't let that go for long.
