    I may have you beat. An Iron Roughneck on a drilling rig. It took the place of chains and tongs. Had to be greased everyday and it had at least 5,793 zerks……..or maybe that’s just how it felt. There were so many. I thought it was a cruel punishment at first.

    I see they plan to use it on the only good highway that runs through that state. I-49 is like a mansion built on the edge of a Section 8 housing project.

    lot better than old 71 up there, even had a curve called “Tyson Curve” cause so many of their trucks turned over there.
    I had to deliver up the old road not long ago to an unincorporated town, ‘Cane Hill’ not in atlas either.

    Winslow hill is not good either.

    Old 71 sure was a pretty ride though.

    We were going to build a place there and kind of disappear. But hell with all the houses they are building up there might as stay here. I still do a bit of logging every few years just to handle the taxes.

    Chains and tongs is much more interesting to watch done... Tis an artform. Someone once refered to it as the Steel Ballet
