    Same as everybody else...
    At work one of our interns, I'd say she was maybe 20, asked for the phone number for one of our outlying warehouses. I provided the number and off she went only to return about 15 minutes later. She complained that something was wrong with that line cause when she calls it there's a funny noise. I was puzzled so I asked her what the noise sounds like so she proceeded to mimick the sound...it was a busy signal. I broke out laughing and the look on her face was priceless. That's when I realized I'm getting to be a dinosaur.
    I hope everyone has a great day and stay safe

    shame on you...

    I have a guy at the shop that just found out about 3 weeks ago he's type 2.
    Totally devastated. Crying etc. don't blame him.
    Trying to help. Might have to slap him around a little to wake him up.
    His girl friend has been talking to me. She came up yesterday and gave me a big hugg saying thank you.
    My friend is getting a replacement the end of March. Rotator all worn out...

    Oh crap.......
    Snowblower just broke.
    Just called Tacoma Mike's Small Engine Repair.
    Parts are in stock. Dam he's good. He's never let me down yet.
    Bad news is it's going to be a long day. Will have to fix it after a crappy day at work.
    Or I just may say screw it and just use my backup untill Saturday and fix it then.
    Just about can't tell I did it earlier.
    That's ok it's Maine.
    Going in later than usual.The shop is packed with cars so no early work.
    Guys come in just before work starts so they won't have to pull cars out.
    Well I'm not going to do it alone.

    Happy humper day. Damn I got muscles I didn't even know about after spending most of yesterday lifting and slamming that root chipper on the ice. A lot heavier than an ice chipper but it is more effective. And all my bricks will have chip marks on them come spring. Got to do what you got to do. Couple more cups of coffee and keep stretching and start again.

    25 here now even the deck is an ice skating rink for the dogs, me with those fancy dandy new boots not a problem. Supposed to get up to 38 and only down to 32 next 3 days in a row. Then 42 and rain on Saturday. Never seen this in January here in Mn. Weather is certainly strange this year.

    Outstanding Tim and Congrats! Have fun working with that new slate :)

    Good luck with your doc this afternoon, hope things turn out well and it is good news for you.

    I've heard good things about that Mike's Small Engine Repair. Even a backup blower?!

    Used to do mine by hand everyone told me with paver bricks a blower will chip the bricks. So did it with a shovel for almost 10 years 60 yards long by 2 vehicles wide. Sometimes took me 2 days straight to clear it. 6 years ago got around 3 feet of heavy wet shit and got the biggest baddest blower I could find after that. What the hell I'm out there now with root chipper smacking away chipping bricks anyways. I can live with a few chips. But if the blower died now would cringe at the thought of shoveling that much snow again. A backup blower sounds like a damn good idea...

    Thanks everybody! I'm loving the truck!

    I actually found it here in town at the Nissan dealership of all places. Honda has a silver OR like yours but I couldn't touch it.

    Thanks! The bed cover is black. It's a Rugged Cover.

    @Casper66 the sliders are still on the other truck, but they will go on this one eventually.

    OOOHHH a Cub Cadet! I like. I've seen some older Cub Cadet mowers and blowers last for a long, long time.
