    Does that price tag read $870.00?????? That is rediculous!!!! There's maybe $150 in materials, and maybe 2 hours of labor for a single guy.

    But I do like the design... Have to show the wife.

    I figured that'd get your wheels turning. They have some that are $1800.

    That top pivots open on the side opposite the handle.

    The rolls here arent to my likin'... I told them to keep it. They are more like biscuits, dry and crumbly. I prefer light and fluffy.

    Lol... Its amazing how tradesmen know how to get a reaction from each other.

    Yeah I seen that, part of the reason I like it... Dont have to lift the grill/spark arrester off to tend the fire.

    Well pm is done. Now the starter for a flat rate of $209. Is being attempted. 2 hours it's still on the truck. 3 bolts, plus 5 bolts for wires, and one plug. Dear God. Next time i'll probably do it myself.

    There was a Lou Malnatis on my route today in Hicag, so gave it a shot. It is good pizza, no doubt but wasn't what I was expecting for Chicago Style Deep Dish. It was like 3/4" of bread on the bottom with a generous sprinkling of toppings on top with a crushed tomato type sauce. It was good, don't get me wrong, but I paid 32.00 for a 12" and was kind of expecting the full on pie experience, like a slice of pie but pizza.

    Was hoping to put off replacing my drive tires to just before the snow starts flying. Looking at them close today not so sure they are going to make it. Truck just turned 210,000 miles so guess I got my money out of them. What kind of mileage do y'all get out of your drives?

    As long as Nestle gets their cut from people stealing "their" water, that idea might fly. On the other hand, maybe they could stop trying to grow cotton in a desert, and use that water for people instead......

    First of all, how did you find an open weigh station in Wisconsin?

    Secondly, there is always a cost to get into paradise.

    Finally, did y'all know that sunscreen expires? Because I certainly didn't.
