    Its true,.. my wife can make me a PB&J,.. the only difference between hers and mine is that she cut it up into 4 squares. Yet hers tastes like a $10 gourmet finger food while mine just drips jam on my shirt.

    Absolutely. I was married before,.. I would always go for the easy white trash girls because,.. well,.. thats what I was too. Birds of a feather. Ex wife got the 7 yr itch,.. caught her with another guy,.. long story. Ended up leaving my home state to avoid a bench warrant. Bought a place in Fla.

    Pretty much gave up on finding a nice girl to settle down with. Used the dating sites to score booty calls. Got drunk one night and put up a ridiculous ad on a single parent dating site. 2 days later my current wife emailed me. Said I was either drunk or really pathetic when I signed up. With nothing to lose, I told her I was a little of both. Chatted on Yahoo messenger for about a month before we finally exchanged phone numbers. We ended up talking for 3 - 5 hours each time. Burned up all the extra roll over minutes I had with Cingular. Finally met for a 'date',.. I never was too sure about love,.. but pretty sure it was the closest thing to love at first sight I had ever experienced.

    And Mac,.. yeah,.. I found that unicorn. We come from complete opposite back grounds. Yet some how we cant get enough of each other. Even now years later,.. I am as much in love with my wife as the day we met. Its that new love feeling you get when you first meet someone. The weak knees, butterflies in your stomach. I still have that. Its the most wonderful feeling in the world to me and why I will do what ever I have to do to keep my marriage as fresh and wonderful as the first day we met. She is there for me, gets involved and shows an interest in everything I do, she is everything to me. Nothing we wont do for each other. Very rare kind of love these days when you hear friends complain about arguments or stale marriages. I tell them.. just buy her some flowers and tell her how much you love her and what she means to you. Women go for that simple sentimental stuff. Some guys just cant do it. Too stubborn. Rather let the marriage fall apart.

    I have something no one can take.,. no matter how bad things get. I always have my sweetie to fall back on.

    Judging by the "feeling" in Hurst's post,

    I think they've both found their unicorn.

    Moved a K-Tec scraper today, we bought two with 40 ton Volvo trucks pulling them this is the first time we moved them so we're learning. then moved a curb machine and finished the day in the shop.

    Johndeere420,

    What do you use to pull that scraper?

    Edit: seen you wrote 40 tonne Volvo. Wouldn't that get stuck easily?

    No it pulls it real good (surprised me) it hauls twice as much as a 627 but on relitivly flat ground it'll run around the 27. They're pretty neat they take an acre to turn and on a steep grade the slow down some but they still move a lot of dirt.
