    Did she give you a shot of Jager for a reward?





    LS inspection is done. Work tomorrow. More than likely. Yep it's cold here too, 20 mph winds and 16'F. It's 55 in the trailer. I need to go to work, rather than heat this thing.

    Struggling to give a #### on this here Monday.....

    Half hour late for the pickup because the preloader was using my truck.

    Sitting under the loading pipe now, loading the thickest grade of corn syrup. It's gonna take awhile. Gonna be late for the drop. Might not even bother calling dispatch.

    Three more days working for these bums.....

    Well, not trying to sound like an AH here, but just remember they gave you a job when you needed one.
    It helps your heart. Be thankful and move on.

    If you read far enough, there used to a house on that property. It kind of sounds like the neighbors under the guise of "protecting the stream" don't want their view tarnished. Yes, it appears the owners skated around the rules, but the others aren't innocents either.

    And property rights are very much part of the reason we had that little scuffle with King George a few years back. It's what "Pursuit of happiness" refers to.

    Similar thinking in Colorado Springs: there's an old quarry that is where the rock that built the town came from. Now, instead of being a part of the town's history, it must be reclaimed so the newcomers can enjoy a pristine view of the mountainside.

    Wow Opus that’s quite an honor from the OM don’t think a first class Savage medal has been awarded on WIIS in well over two years. Congratulations

    Actually, I think they have a program that spots these things. Perhaps @REO6205 could enlighten us.
