How'd it go today?

[pantheraba]

hahaha...T-shirts!

Good approach on working with him. Quiet ones often have a lot going on inside...may be some very good potential there.

 

[Bermy]

AW he looks about 12...nice of you to ease him in, they can get scared off easily with too much too soon.

 

[Bermy]

Poor Nick Araya must think I'm stalking him, I'm in LA...been juggling phones and sim cards to try and get in touch, nothings working very well. His last text to me came over all goobledegook.
He must have at least two voice messages and a bunch of missed calls, I'd better ease off or the missus might get worried...

 

[CurSedVoyce]

LOL..... SOrry I'm not down that way Fi... We could send him gobblygoop over a cup of tea while we wait... LOL

 

[Grendel]

Had some pretty wild bands of southerly wind come through early this morning. Stripes of trees were laid out like dominoes all over the place. Worked out some pretty gnarly hemlock mousetraps (that I didn't get any pictures of), and managed to put four tanks of alkylate through the new saw. She's oiling great with a 28, basically one to one with the fuel. Cool beans

 

[Grendel]

Between the MS441 CM and the Huskies, this is new and unfamiliar. I've never had to blow out the filter on that 441, never once. haha



And this little number works like a charm. Evens out the teeth and leaves a screaming sharp edge. Big like.

 

[Raj]

Nice!

 

[hseII]

It's not gay unless you push back.

Dew Tail.

 

[Steve Mack]

Now I see what she was talking about, had me a bit puzzled.

LOL..... SOrry I'm not down that way Fi... We could send him gobblygoop over a cup of tea while we wait... LOL

Ended up in the wrong thread.

Stephen, that would have been fun, but now this stupid phone isn't even sending texts, just putting them in a queue, IMA bout ready to drop kick it

 

[Raj]

Back from my GF's specialist, guess her kidneys are doing worse than ever, they are going to try some treatments to avoid the nasty stuff.

Still don't have my truck, guess finding a front bumper is pretty difficult. They are going to weld it up, still a slim chance for this afternoon. Would be nice to have it for the weekend, do some cleaning and fooling around with it. Cruise the strip, pick up chicks....

 

[MasterBlaster]

Lordy... hope she gets better.

 

[Raj]

No, unfortunately, she's had it since she was 17, looses protein through her kidneys. It will and has slowly get worse. high doses of Prednisone slows it, but not much.

 

[Grendel]

Ooff



More storm damage from yesterday. Punched a hole through a skylight on the porch and the wall of the house, right into the entry/living room.

 

[Raj]

Truck!

 

[treebilly]

Looks good. Looks like the sides fold down as well. That can come in handy if you do stump clean ups.

 

[Grendel]

cool. Like that box.

 

[Raj]

$40 cad puts 3/4 in the one tank, now to see the fuel economy, has over drive, guess I should put something in the other tank.... plan on replacing the side boards with some oak I have, perhaps router my name and phone number on it. Going to pick up a mesh tarp. Hope to fly under the radar, have it rated for 4500kg right now, no CVOR required, going to apply next week. Ownership says it's 3180kg.

On another note south sound sent me a text to say hi to all the housers.

 

[pantheraba]

Glad you finally got the truck...should be a busy weekend fussing with it.

Glad to hear Sean checked in, too.

 

[CurSedVoyce]

I can say the 7.3 gets better fuel mileage than my 460CI
I see possibilities right there.

 

[flushcut]

I can give you some pointers on building a chip box. Nice ride!

 

[Bermy]

Prednisone is nasty stuff when my hubby was diagnosed with aggressive cataracts they asked him if he took prednisone (he never has) it is implicated in the formation kind of cataracts, they develop very quickly.
Sorry the GF isn't too well, all the best for her!

Steve, see what you get for coming in halfway in a conversation!
I really think nick thinks I'm stalking him...poor bloke putting up with my phone trauma.

 

[Steve Mack]

I like the truck, not too high and the idea about the sides sounds good. You should pick up some work with it I reckon.

Best wishes to your GF, sorry to hear about that.



Loaded my truck today, heading north for a few days.

 

[Fiddler]

Chipped a small pile of brush this morning that was left from Spring when it was too wet to get to.

Now setting up a little musical entertainment for the train this afternoon

 

[Fiddler]

Rats! Didn't have the amp set up when they came the first time...just the stereo out the window (loud enough so I didn't hear the gunfire)...conductor guy was holding his hand to his ear to talk to the other guy and looking annoyed...have the amp set for the next round now.
