Happy Birfday @robssol

 

Well the skunk Rut is in full swing. they breed here in Feb.- Mar. saw 6 dead ones in the road comin to work and swerved to miss one standing in the road and smelled one at the house.always was a problem when i had the beagles.

 

Morning all

Happy bday @robssol

Local taco/sandwich deli has good food. Got to know the owner, George, a Romanian, nice guy great sense of humor.
George has a yelp review that is my favorite.
Customer complained that he asked George if his food was organic, George took him by the arm and walked him to the window, pointed across the street at McDonald's and said," you want organic? You go there"

 

Seems to be universal, the smell and the dead skunks in the road here too.

 

@Casper66 Have you thought of joining AARP and get them to look at your case? They often take on cases pro bono were age discrimination may be an issue.
Just throwing it out there

 

Good Morning
No plans for today.
Happy Birthday @robssol

 

On my first coffee.....

Teens above zero so snowing. Again. 6" more of the white shit by end of the day they say. Only day isn't supposed to snow is Wednesday this week.



Last Sunday I did a couple racks of ribs on the smoker and had the snow cleared.



Have meat to cook need to shovel at least to the grill. Don't feel like it.

Guess my weather station is broke, started when got down to -30. It was stuck at -6. Changed batteries and it got stuck at 6 above. Brought it inside for a few hours and now it is stuck at 57. Going out on a limb and saying it isn't 57 outside.

Might go back to a LaCrosse Station. They are made in China but couple of years ago shot in La Crescent, Mn. which is on the Mn. side of the river across from La Crosse, Wi. One of the guys squaded with worked for LaCrosse Technologies doing tech support for the weather stations.

Nice flock of turkeys. Rogers Sporting goods is clearing out the Federal Heavyweight Turkey loads so I bought a hundred rounds of 2 oz. loads. So I can pull the tungsten iron shot out and reload it in 1 oz. loads for the 16 ga. It is 15 g/cc and the 11 lbs. I will get is $40 cheaper than bucksrun or BPI sells it in bulk. Use it for waterfowl and pheasants where the Feds don't allow lead. That 15 g/cc shot is a true 60 yard dead in the air shell. I hate steel, too many cripples. Must be getting old and soft I'm willing to pay $2 a shell to make sure they are dead and not wounded. Don't go through that many shells in a hunting season though so it isn't bad. Thank goodness I don't hunt sky carp though (snow geese).

 

With out building my own I have 2 Stations if I could find one that would handle 7 sensors I would be happier. I looked at doing it with raspberry pi units but a lot of BS and have to build all the components . Been debating doing WIFI ones if I can find an app I like I might try them.
I keep track of Outside temp, Dog Box Temp, Dog Kennel Temp, Small shop , large Shop, Camper , Crawl Space

Good morning.
Happy Birthday @robssol.
Good night last night. I'm need a couple more cups of coffee.

 

True. Try this they will be terminating me yet still call me for snow duty. I feel like telling them to pound sand but I need every penny. But since I’ll have the call in sick on Thursday to go to attny I’ll only get paid strait time. Mike hard work gets you absolutely nothing but screwed over. I busted my ass at the state and I was the first one laid off. I’ve worked my ass off here and now my body is torn up and loosing my job. What a reward for working hard huh?

 

Nothing bud.

It’s like you have said.
The old fuckers are the only ones with work ethic.
However in this new society we are the dumb ones where mediocrity is accepted and expected
And the people that actually make the money pull the strings in the background to twist us a little more.

 

This is so true

 

If I could magically add one zero to the end of my 401k, I would leave today with a smile. The retirement party can kiss my ass.
Never really wanted to be a grumpy old bastard, but I guess I am.
