  1. #**k you- just have your people call my people...
  2. Time to move this equipment out of the driveway and into the back yard. Maybe if I took the wheels off the two old tillers in the junk pile and clamped them to the legs on the grill with vise grips, I could just roll it like a wheelbarrow... Good in theory, but as I was afraid, the vise grips wouldn't clamp tight enough. On to plan B- this oughta work, i'll just get a helper to steady it while I pull. That'll work! Think i'll leave it right there.
  3. You need to go sit in a truckstop parking lot to see all that.
  4. I didn't know the proper category to post these in, but here's some pics. I got in an e-mail.
  5. I don't know. I can put it on youtube.
  6. Dang it, i'm out of "likes" again- here, just take these.
  7. I thought about getting one of those little cheap trailers from Tractor Supply and mounting the grill on it, then I could tow it all over the place and grill. I still have the big Char-Grill smoker in the back yard too.
  8. I heard some years ago that 2 guys crossing the tracks to go fishing in the James river in Amherst set their aluminum boat down on the tracks while they took a break and it caused all sorts of confusion.
  9. It should, I didn't know the bottom part was stainless steel. The guy at the machine shop told me he found out when he went to cut the hole in it. Now I need to get it moved around to the back yard.
  10. "Oh...hadn't noticed that- but we're still trying to work out all the minor details. I can assure you that this problem will be the no. 1 priority at the next board meeting"- Ed, chief engineer and CEO of HACME Technology Research and Development Laboratory, located in sunny south Florida. "In the meantime, try not to put yourself in a position where you might have to back up".
  11. ... for your quadruplex is now available. Just happened to run across this ad on the interweb machine.
  12. Joseph Petree is a truck driver for La-Z-Boy. He's usually hauling truck-loads of furniture. And now he's helping people on the other side of the world. Dr. Greene connected with La-Z-Boy and they are taking the supplies to their next destination for free. Petree says, "It kind of feels like you're doing something right because there's really not much you can do you would think from sitting behind the wheel of the truck but now actually you're helping people." http://www.13abc.com/story/26816259/local-volunteers-send-supplies-to-w-africa He's known as Nocluejoe66 here.
  13. Wonder what ever happened to this one? I've been to Rutrough Mack in Roanoke many times. It's Virginia Truck Center now, still right across rt. 11 from the scales.
  14. Didn't see a lot this week either, but I did see a few blurry big Mack trucks- I even saw a couple that weren't blurry- This one was really sharp looking! Some road shots in West Virginia- rt. 60- rt. 20- rt. 19- Looking west on rt. 60, Sprouse's Corner, Va. Rt. 220 in Md...hit a big purple bug. It was purple on the inside anyway. Looking east from Moorefield,W.V. I saw a big peach and a big loader- Got the grill back from Moore's Machine. I already had the bottom part, they put the lid and offset firebox on it for me. They'd had it since May or June, but they only charged me $50. Looks great! Brought it home and sprayed some paint on it- Picked these this morning too. Still got lots on the plants, and they're still blooming, but the first frost probably won't be long now.
  15. Well done! A guy told me where he needed me to back in one time and said "think you can do that"? and that's what I told him. He said "i've seen a lot of truck drivers like that, but you're the first one i've ever heard admit it." Then I backed in right where he said to. I'm a little better going forward though, get more practice that way. This was with the old 379EXHD Pete and a 48' spread axle trailer-
  16. About 85 for me, but I'm not much of a wheel man.
  17. I'd never heard of it until I heard you mention it in a post one time Larry, so I had to check it out. It's very...uh...interesting, to say the least. Those folks get right after each other, all kinds of insults and name calling going on, along with the sex, nudity, and violence! That's why I don't go there anymore, in fact I must have typed yellow bullet by accident when I was trying to sign in on BMT.
  18. We have stinkbugs everywhere too.
  19. The stew pot holds 30 quarts, I made one stew and put it in the containers then started making another more. I think we made $280 selling the stew and I took Macho Man- that was his cb handle- $300 cash. He had nothing coming in at the time.
  20. then somebody said "This is such a sad day for all who knew him.. Such a good boy.. such a good son and brother. And man that dude could make a sammich!"

    WTF? 2

    I was looking around on Yellow Bullet again, ran across this post- Another fucking piece of shit thug had to be put down after shooting at a cop and now these "peaceful protestors" are busting out police car windows, throwing bricks, and burning American flags in the streets. I remember seeing that same flag draped over my grandfathers casket at his funeral and I have been to several military funerals where that flag is folded up and placed in the lap of the widow or mother and it tears my heart out every time when I hear the "on behalf of a grateful nation" part. But to see that symbol of ultimate sacrifice being burned in our own streets? Not on my watch. I've grown sick of this shit . . . I have to agree. Then this guy replied- They burn our flag and in the same fuckin' breath they except food stamps and welfare provided by our government. When you burn the flag, you have renounced your citizenship so you should not be able to except any benefits. Fucking savages! ...and I couldn't agree more.
  22. Plus you have the entertainment- i'll rent a bunk space at your place if it isn't already sold out.
  23. I made a couple of trips this week, went to Fairview, Pa. with lumber, steel from McKees Rocks back to Lynchburg, then steel from Lynchburg to Knoxville, Tn, and a machine from Asheville, N.C. back to Lynchburg. I didn't see much all week, so I didn't take pictures of much . hmmm...if I add some emoticons periodically, maybe it'll seem like more substance... Uh...I... uh...picked this peach off the pear tree when I got home though, nice peach . I tried to take a picture of the moon...it's very hard to take a good picture of the moon. Saw a St. Germain truck on I-79 in W.V. Saw the sun going down before I got to Knoxville. I saw the sun coming up the next morning. And I saw a big hill- I saw a girl in a car- Saw some new trailers when I got back to the shop. Saw a sleeping dog at home. And Jo found this today- I might have posted it before. I printed some flyers when I made stew to sell for one of our drivers at H.H.Moore's. I made 2 pots of stew and put it in quart styrofoam containers to sell. He was bitten in his heel by a brown recluse spider and ended up losing his leg just below his knee. That was probably in the 90's, maybe early 2000's.
