    Now its called Mom's I Like Fornicating lol Thought I was going to skirt the ef word didnt ya?
    ---------------------------------
    Well the grass box is off the mower. The mower pto clutch died last friday. Another pto clutch is on overnight. The box needs serious help tho. It was leaning on one side. The box had broken the floor. Now there is a piece of angle iron reenforcing where the floor had ripped the bolts out.
    One more repair to the box still. The lid that dumps the grass has become religious (full of holes, holey). So I need to cut up some sheet metal and pop rivet it in place. Then it should be repaired for another 14 years. Or until it breaks some where else.

    As to the pto clutch. I may have shot my own foot by removing a heat shield. Guess I need to replace the shield that was in the way anytime I needed to service the mower. I am thinking of wrapping the muffler with fiberfrax. Fiberfrax is a insulation used for the space shuttle (and boilers). Very light as well as high insulation characteristics. I can wrap it, then put a shield around it to keep squirrels from stealing it for thier nests.

    Ok.

    I was asked yesterday, and I had to think about it, but I finally have an answer.

    The question was, “What’s it like being a truck driver?”
    I had the ‘deer in headlights’ stare and approach.

    The answer is,
    “Just imagine, every time you wake up, waiting in line for the restroom.”

    Any questions?
    “Then why do you do it?”

    “That’s a good question that requires more thought.”

    Life imitates art......
    On April 3, 2015, life caught up with Bob Burns. Burns, the original drummer for the southern rock powerhouse Lynyrd Skynyrd, died in a single-car accident near Cartersville, Georgia, reports Ultimate Classic Rock. He wasn't wearing a seatbelt and was alone in the car, which struck a mailbox before slamming into a tree. Burns was 64.
