    I deleted my FB account 27 days before I bought the Taco. I wasn't planning on buying it AT ALL. Got a deal I couldn't resist. Didn't want to sell other cars on Craigslist - too many jerks. So I remembered when I deleted FB that they said they kept it for 30 days in case you changed your mind! I sold my 2001 Rav4 to a friend who needed a car for his daughter in 2 days and then sold my 2007 Durango to another friend for his son 2 days later.

    I really didn't miss FB for those 27 days but it came in handy this week when I needed a plumber upstate.... debating whether to cancel again...

    What I find most interesting is that they can censor you in minutes but can't keep people from hacking your account - tells me where there priorities are....

    I found out my Prerunner was pre-wired for fogs as well. I went with after-market Cali-Raised fogs & an OEM switch and I am very happy with them. They were plug & play.[/QUOTE]

    Which fogs did you get? 2x2? 3x2? Happy with them?

    You can't go wrong with with either @Arcticelf or KORE 4x4 @Skell. KORE's has a plasma table that might make the bolt on plates easier.

    I went with ATS springs. They're the ones blackout used to sell on here. I went with the heavy option. It is a little stiff, but loaded out to camp it's perfect.

    Good morning fellow Pennsyltuckyvanians! I actually have someplace to be this morning - two announcements to attend: one for my old college and another related to a new veterans service center here in our area. Man, I guess I need to find some pants and underwear!

    I saw two geese flying close to the house yesterday around 4 and then heard a large flock flying north about 9:30 last night when I took the dogs out for a walk. Spring is on the way!

    Stay safe!

    G’morning fellas, day off today. Brother joe asked if I could check his valve clearance on his kubota b2230 today. It’s down for fan shroud repair. Then I probably split some wood to get caught up with that. I’ll definitely have a couple cold ones while I’m enjoying my work away from work day :thumbsup:

    Good Morning PA Folks. I have a real exciting morning today...haircut day woohoo. We haven't done much since Sunday because we got the second covid shot. I only had some soreness in my left arm where I got the shot. The missus was fine until yesterday when the mild fever and joint pain started. Hopefully it is just about 24 hours or so that it sticks around. Like they say, it affects people differently.
    Have a great day and be safe.

    Funny same thing happened to my wife, pretty much lasted ~18hrs. Tylenol helped knock down the fever. Good luck.

    Morning Pa. I have heard if you drink OJ the day before, day of, and the day after your Covid shot it will lessen if not eliminate side effects of shot. My Amanda did this trick and got both shots, other than a sore arm she was fine. Getting my first shot Friday so I will try this.

    I arrive at work this morning only to discover an employee hired 2 weeks ago survived an 8 man layoff yesterday. This employee’s mother works in the office.
    At least 4 of those laid off were more deserving to stay...
    Ethics and professionalism have disappeared in my industry!

    Please explain ‘furloughed the same classification’
    We are all classified as carpenters
    We are union, if that helps.

    Furloughed= laid off. Were all eight employees within the same job classification? Least senior should go first. Bumping rights should be in effect. Someone should be contacting the union if employee hired two weeks prior is in the same classification did not get furloughed.

    The union does not have our back. Apart from our benefit plan, the Union SUCKS. At least 4 of the 8 had 6-8 months working this site.
