    ...you'll be fine. Go out and rotate your tires, volunteer to rake the sand traps at the local golf course, maybe dig some post holes...

    Having done left and right inguinal hernias I would suggest you at least check in with the DR if it really has bulged further. They tell you what happens if it gets caught out there and strangled ... if they did then you know that makes for a bad 6 months or so depending. If they didn't think strangulation ie blood flow cut off and what happens to body parts with out blood flow... Do the math..Oh and if your smart you blame it on the rail road ties so the wife feels at least a little sorry for you :}

    I say a nicely fashioned girdle from duct tape would really give it excellent support.and remove any unwanted "nuisance" hair.

    I just got a otima batt. Out if a Prius and charged it up. Won't work the Prius but will roll over the second gen real good. I'll make a hold down adapter to secure it. I'll clean it up and then flip it or sell my little 2300 watt job. I was going to do that this weekend but it's to dam cold and I am in blizzard mode so I don't want to waste the kero in case I need to do some emergency work....
    As far as chains IMO when I used them I had a second set of tires with the chains all on. I mean they were ON..... I custom fit them with no extra chain AND NO SLOP. I fit them with the tires flat and then when you added air they became one with tire. No straps needed or extra links flopping. To me it was so much easier to swap out a tire than rolling and fitting chains in a storm or getting ready. They never fit the same. This was by far the best for me..
    Just a thought...

    Thanks guys, NOT! I just need to slow down and take it a little easier. If I was smart I would be laying low milking this for all that it's worth and getting some perks, but there is just too much to get done.

    Expanded steel as a filler takes care of that problem. And gives the dog and you something to step on. Heavy mud and snow likes to stay on top when it is really bad but just find a large body of water and hit the skinny pedal to clean them off.

    [​IMG]

    Went off the well a couple years ago, as the city keeps growing they are sucking us in and provided water. Now if they would just do sewage so I can rid of my septic tank that has tree roots growing into it :anonymous: I'm now paying city taxes, without all the "benefits".

    As I was making coffee this morning realized that calcium is building up once again. Damn city water isn't any better than the well water I had.

    I like it, I have thought of the same thing. Remember I don't have snow where I live, we go to it to "have fun". Sorry for you that have to live in it.

    Yeah man that looks good! Now you got me thinking about removing my bug guard. I have found out that the pelfrey skids will work with my truck with a little modification. Idk I was talking with my buddy I used to weld with. He's building his own metal shop at home. He said just go get a half sheet of 3/16 and build my own.

    Same aquifer however they claim to not only chemically treat it but to run it through a softening system. I call BS. And they should just go back to bromide injection and ion exchangers like we used on the ships. Of course that was back when Moby Dick was still a minnow, likely more effective and cheaper systems out there now. Wait that is what they are doing...
