New England B.S. Thread

Haven't had a sip in about 3 years, and while I do have a smoke sometimes, it isn't something that I need to do while working. Hopefully I can pull a day shift and all the younger guys who have school and stuff or party won't want it.

 

I was a liftie about 100 years ago in Vermont at Mt. Ascutney. I think it was a requirement to smoke during the job- or at least it seemed like it. Failing a drug test would mean you didn't have any drugs in your system.

 

Ya, as I have aged and become more responsible, the baked working shifts don’t work anymore. But dam it when I worked for Walmart, I am not sure how I was able to see I was so fried. A buddy of mine would laugh his ass off at me as I strolled in at 3, with a cloud of smoke rolling off me and just grinning ear to ear.

 

Happy Birthday @Pugga

 

That's fantastic sir! Good for you....keep up the good work!

 

Thank you

 

oh snap! Happy birthday @Pugga

 

Thanks

 

Happy birfday!

 

Happy birthday Mike!

 

Installed the ambient light sensor yesterday. One of those things Toyota does where it's all pre-wired and ready to go, but didn't include the not so expensive sensor

 

When the headlights are on, it sets the brightness of the dash lights depending how bright/dark it is outside.

 

Happy Birthday Mike @Pugga!

 

@Pugga - Happy birthday!

 

Thatd be nice to have, wonder if my 17 has it..?

 

I'm not sure. There is a light sensor for the 3rd gen Taco (89121-0E060), but a quick search shows it's for auto headlights if you have the tech package.

 

My 1998 Landcruiser has it......

 

Thanks, guys! On our way to VT for a birthday camping trip, hopefully the monsoon stays south and east!

 

Mt. Ascutney? Holy smokes, I haven’t heard anyone talk about that place in ages.

My friend has a place in Perkinsville which is our winter hang for trips to Okemo and Killington.

I think I could handle being a liftie at a townie mountain like Gunstock in NH (my local hill), but dealing with some of the folks I see at Killington would make self medicating a necessity.
