Morning fellers. Met up with some friends this morning for breakfast and had myself a western burrito with hot sauce and a couple cups of coffee. Was gonna work on getting that harbor junk motor in the cub today but the usps is slower than molasses in Antarctica and the parts that were supposed to be here today are still sitting God knows where so I guess I'll just be a bum today

Morning Brent. Just outside receiving a delivery. Tractor trailer waiting to get into the dock. Little dog in the cab like Tia just barking its head off and showing the teeth. Protective little bastid.

Good morning Ray how’s your day going, are you still able to get a bike ride in .

No cold weather biking, temps just above freezing. Daily hikes are replacing the biking.

My friend was asleep in her living room
With her three kids
It was midnight last friday night.
She heard a noise as
These three tried to break in
She keeps a loaded g19 on top of her kitchen cabinet out of kids reach.
But since she didn't come from her bedroom she didn't have time to get it
As she held the front door.

This guy used to date her mother until he got hooked on drugs.
These other two she'd never seen before.
All three live a couple county's away.
She showed me the surveillance footage
They had a plan
As they
arrived and surrounded the house a split level my brother actually used to own.
Trying the front,back and basement doors
And all the windows.
She woke up to them looking at her through the picture window.
Luckily a neighbor called the police
Or who knows what would've happened.
They were arrested with counterfeit money.
She did good and didn't panic
If they were to get in she would've got to a gun and handled them.
I told her if it happens again that hollow core front door will not slow down
.556 or even 9mm
*f-wording scum going after a girl home with her kids.

i probably do as well. Your eyes will be shot before you get to it though. I can always apply for a city inspector job as they are the same union but I can’t see me doing that for a while yet. I enjoy doing the work to much.

20 years as the calendar turns or actual man years of work.

One will happen the other won’t...

 

[cuinrearview]

15 more years for me. 13 if I figure the 57 1/2 loophole out. The 401 should double a couple more times by then and it'll all come together.

Good afternoon all. Someone told me it's Monday?

I know a real good non-union electrician that went the city inspector route a couple years ago. His back was giving him issues so he thought that would be better. Lasted less than a year, doing 3 hrs work in 10 hour days was killing him. He was continually told to slow down and stop working so hard.

Of course these were the same guys that ended up on the news for slacking on company time that would make Dal look like an amateur. All have since lost there job but that only happened once the Union withdrew support and wouldn’t provide lawyers for the criminal charges...

My buddy is back in tools but only doing light duty and difficult decorative installs.
