60+ year old thread.

Morning all:
Sorry to hear about the Motrin incident with the dog. Hopefully all will be ok.

Hi Sue!

Off to clean a couple of walleyes from last night!

 

Sorry to hear about the Dog 6 ,, They are like Fam..

Hope Duffy fully recovers poor pup

Hi Carl

^ this

 

^^^^^^^

 

Ordered some Redline goodies today. Time for 60K maintenance.

 

Busy day at home today. I have a repair trifecta happening. Safelite windshield repair in today to fix 2 dings in the Tacoma windshield. Belair Engineering in to replace a broken thermostat on the HVAC system. La Z Boy in to start the repair process on a sleeper chair we purchased earlier this year. Should be an interesting morning.

 

Good Morning Tom. One word for that ... Coffee(s)

 

Coffee coffee coffee.....
New JD arrives today.
My Buddies New race car on the way.
Weather still sucky but it has to change sometime.
Boat runs great. Caught a few little shit fish but they have been raising and lowering the level 5 feet so everything is messed up.
Was hoping to get a few days in me before the vacationers came .
They act like the are the only ones around.
Late work day today but a 3 day weekend for me

 

Morning Mike. for new toys!

Here's the local cliche for the "vacationers": If it's tourist season, why can't we shoot them? That might be just an Alaska thing, but you made me think of it.

Short week for me, work Tue/Wed/Thu nights, then a 4 day weekend.

Enjoy your break.

 

SHOOT THEM ????? Naaaaaaaa

Would just like them to bow in submission and move out of the way...
Hehehehehe
Actually it's like everything else, it's only a few....
Had to instruct a local on boat ramp stuff last week. He wasn't happy but I told him he would get a much worse reception in a few weeks.
Off to work . Later people's .......

 

yep, But sometimes I think the few are multiplying too fast. Have a good day Mike.

 

Ill trade you the vacationers for what just showed up Sun PM a few doors down from me. A new white Chev van with Tex. plates full of mexicans with small suitcases. Ten or so got out & went in the house.. I called the police. A roller showed up to tell me they cant do anything ,, they have to call ICE from 8 to 5 on Mon.

 

NO TRADE.

At least our tourists help our local economy. In fact many up here make their living from tourism.

And WTF ... ICE can only be contacted from 8 to 5 Mon-Fri???? You have got to be kidding me? Are these the same idiots that crashed the economy in 2008 ... I mean damn, those are banker hours?

// Break - Break //

Good Morning WBO.

 

The Officer gave me the ICE #..I called & got the answering machine. Called back on Mon. AM. told them what I had seen Sun. PM.. Was told they would check the house when they had time. I asked for a time for the check & was told it would be checked in the next 30 days..

 

I'm not often lacking for words, but I really don't know what to say to that.

 

Morning all:
Was thinking about what Mike said about raising and lowering the lake where he fishes. I think the water level is also dropping at the lake we are fishing. Last night we caught 7 more walleyes and 2 legal stripers.
When we got there, there were two guys leaving. They told us we might as well turn around and go home; nothing was hitting, they didn't even have a bump.

 

What, ONLY 10 got out of the van? Over here in Texas there would been at least 20!!! My son worked an accident scene where 23 of them were in a pickup that ran off the road and hit a tree, killing most. Ugly situation.

They own this state .... WE are the minority.

I thought the Cubans owned Florida.

Tex

 

How ya' been Tex?

 

Been real busy. As always spring brings a lot of mowing, trimming, etc.. Aside from buying and traveling soon to install a window A/C unit for my 88 year old mom in SE Texas (100+ year old house), I've, after several months of soul-searching, decided to sell my glider and leave the sport of soaring behind. I've simply lost interest .... do more work at the club than flying. I'm currently in the process of replacing the rudder cables (due to some fraying I recently noticed) and a gas spring that lifts the instrument panel. Right now waiting for a response from a guy in Germany for the part.

Hope everyone is doing well .... I'm still lurking.

Tex

 

Sorry to near of that decision. You should not be doing the lion's share around there. I still miss flying. Especially the float plane. Nothing like it.
It's your decision for sure but I am very sad for you..
