Like I said above I gotta pay for whatever I buy, especially w/ the old lady not working.
That's not as bad as I was imaging, hopefully she won't be too upset.

Did you test the pool before you added shock to it?

Sounds like you need to go back to bed Mark, not a great day so far.

I might have to go check it out! I love how they think V10's are the chit when we already know that the PDS is king!

Hey, all. Just got home from day 2 of the sale.

I got as many pics of our new toys as I could before my camera battery died. It's upstairs charging at the moment so pics will come once it's good to go.

I took the folder full of manuals out of the service truck so nobody would steal them on us. I read through the crane's manual while I was eating lunch. It extends up to 16' hydraulically and another 4' manually on top of that for a grand total of 20' of reach. With the boom all the way tilted up and sucked in it has 6,000lb of lift capacity. I bet that crane alone cost more when it was new than what we paid for the entire truck. Granted it isn't new any more, but it still works good.

And if you can't tell I'm excited. If I'm getting annoying just tell me to shut up.

Yeah, if you're feeling any of that stuff, get to the doctor buddy. This little incident taught us not to shrug anything off.

And, the Chickenfoot CD is fantastic!!!!
I am glad that she is home and doing well John!!

I figure an hour at 106° should dry it out...crossing fingers...really cant afford another phone right now...maybe I can activate my old one...

That is what I was going to say.

Time to plug for Scott and his truck again. He's closing the gap, but still needs your vote.
