    Welp, my brewery load for tomorrow got cancelled. So I'm just heading on home.

    I scored some Chester's chicken, tho. So there IS that......

    Driving test for the cryo outfit is 2 weeks from now. I wish I could put in my notice, but I don't know when they're gonna schedule the piss test. Aw, well. A few more weeks or months won't matter......

    Haven't been to Dayton, WI. I originally thought you were talking Ohio but upon better reading comprehension I figured it out.

    They are lazy with it . the problem is u have idaho on 1 side and montana on the other. Idaho is good with maintaining their side of the pass. Montana not so much. Also if u are there early in the morning , whoever controls the chain up sign lights is still in bed. A good rule of thumb is if it is snow covered at the bottom of the pass go ahead and chain up even if the lights aren't on.. Sometimes they have the lights on but the road is just wet and I will run barefoot instead of ruining the chains and never had a problem. But the montana side of the mountain is always going to be the worst side . so just keep that in mind

    Both are good points, but I prefer the large porcelain mug. Quaffs quicker...

    Looks like a lathe I used when I attended Pasadena City College in California. The chucks were so large I had to use a lifting crane mounted on the back of the loathe to swap to the various other chucks.

    Speaking of scratch off tickets. There was a local here that got in hot water here for falsifying his winnings. He worked in a store that sold lottery scratch offs. Rick would go and take three scratch off loosing tickets and make one a winner. He would over lay the tickets and cut the 100.00 number out and stick it back in on a card that could be a winner. Alas the gig was up after he had won about ten grand. That is when the lottery realized what he had done to win.
