    During the 1st 18 yrs of driving, I worked road construction, so I was laid off every winter. Had to find something to do, cause most years plowing snow didn't always cut it.

    When I bought this house, about 17 yrs ago, or so, I gutted it. My buddy was a union electrician. Said "This is a stick of pipe, this is a 1900 box, this is a connector and this is a coupler." Told me to call him when I was ready to pull wire. Called him 3 days later. His jaw dropped when he could only find one mistake (I only piped the upstairs). Told me I needed to quit driving and sign up for the apprenticeship program. Well, I'm still driving and he's making dryers as the housing market went belly up around here.

    Hey... I would have to do some online searching to decipher what that means... "busted out the spiffy duds..." English is my second language and I have no clue what you are saying... :biggrin_25513:
    But I am in a real hurry right now... Just stopped by to check some news and post where I am... Will have to catch up with you all and find out what this is about tomorrow...

    Now I am at this other zoo.... I mean, this Pilot on I-10 TX...
