I wish.......Wait till ya see the pictures I'm going to post in my "harvest" thread tomorrow. One of our combines slid into a ravine today.....It's going to take the dozer and the backhoe to get it out......I think the operator might have needed to change his shorts. lol

I would have had the pics tonight, but I had to drive the dozer and backhoe overland 10 miles to the site because the lowboy is down for brakes.

At least we're working Ed. I know a bunch of people that can't find any work.......

Got my new bumper put on by the tow truck company last night to replace the one they smashed. Not brand new, but nicer than my old one.

Gotta pull my injectors now and send them in for a slight overhaul.

mornin' all,
thats right don i'm 1 of the unemployed. even the side jobs have dropped off. i had a guy call me a few weeks ago and said his mercedes wouldn't get 15 mph, then he called back and said it was running out of fuel. so false alarm. then my neighbor wants to put a motor in his kia rio he has but he has a bunch of guys helping him. the timing belt went and thru bunch of valves in the pistons. i guess they have an interferance head like the old escorts had. and the 1.7 renaults did to.
