I guess my dog wants me to quit smoking. Or she's started chewing?

I hope my son decides to quit. I wish he never started. He didn't start from seeing me smoke. Never did it. He started when his mom left. At least he's a moderate smoker.

Like most contractors around here this guy had several things going at once all closer to his shop . It amounted to demo took place two months before anyone started the rebuild . then toward the end of things he tried to hire local guys to do some of stuff . I drive up and bust them blowing dope on the front steps . This kept up with different crews until a husband and wife team showed up . They were slow but lots better . You could turn you back on them and not worry. We were nearing a year and with the rental house being sold out from under us and the years worth of problems we finally reached a point I could finish things . Lacked 3 days of being a full year . Kind of a mutual agreement he was done and we needed back in . |
Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
Sounds like a bad situation. If he decides which job has priority based on how far and is busy, what was he thinking taking on a house fire restoration farther away? Sounds like a family being displaced by tragedy didn't play into his figuring. Only about the money.

When I got hit it didn't even hurt. Then my girlfriend started screaming. And then I realized that blood was pouring out of my head. And I thought "This is a problem'. I was a bloody mess when they got me to the ER. And they shaved a big patch of my hair to stitch me back up. I forget how many stitches but it was a bunch. But I looked weird with this big patch of hair missing and the Frankenstein stitches on my noggin'. The weirdest thing about that was that I had a massive bruise on my left arm. On both sides of my arm. Like it went clear through. I hadn't fallen or anything. But I couldn't straighten my arm for about a year. |

My new to me S10 wheel arrived. My buddy that I bought the truck off of had a flat tire and put some funky spare wheel on it and now he can't find the other wheel which means I'll never see it. So I bought another so all the wheels match. I got a nice center cap too. I also got a new shifter. He was using a piece of PVC pipe for a shifter. :rolleyes: I always liked these wheels on S10's I have no idea why because they really aren't my style. The wheel nicer in person than in the pic. Time for new tires. Get the old girl back on the road again. :) http://67-72chevytrucks.com/gallery/.../S10_wheel.jpg |

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
That's how gov't allotment works down here, too. They scramble to spend surplus money once the final quarter comes up, once the bulk of the year is behind with surplus funds left. What shape was the old roof in? Could be they know a building is only as good as it's roof and, although they closed the school, they want to save the building for other purposes or to sell.
They want to close down the elementary school in the town my mom lives in due to shrinking student body. I remember when they built that school. There are only two jr/sr high schools in that county. I guess the elementary school kids will get used to a long bus ride before jr. high |

I have this random poster in my hallway. A guy that I knew was the singer. He died at 39 of brain cancer. Too bad. He was a nice guy.

ST tires are typically rated for 65mph hence reduced trailer towing speed limits in most states.. trailer bearings, brakes, suspension, and couplings are also not designed for high speeds.. load stability and weight distribution, wind and weather, etc. are also major factors far safe towing speed.. see those guys in the ditch all the time, usually the median after going too fast in left lanes.. brought this big fella down through the mountains from Ojai few years ago slow and steady no trouble at all :) https://dl.dropbox.com/s/82jvcx19w15...49516.jpg?dl=0 |

Attachment 2221982Attachment 2221983Attachment 2221984 is actually 3 roofs on this job. you can see the old roof on this one section we hadn't got done yet- is not really that bad of shape, some maintenance and prob could have easily got some more life out of it. Attachment 2221985 Quote:
as the trailer is insured as commercial, it goes for an annual inspection, which was just last aug, at which time some new Carlisle TrailRated HD tires went on it. the Carlisle's are rated for 81 mph. sure, we were over the limit, but new tires, 3 weeks out and a burning desire to get home to see my wife, kid and dawgs meant the hay with it...lol |
