other dog

Yes,thank you very much indeed-man, that two story International looks awesome!

Last day of vacation is over,so back to the old grind. I was ready to go after a couple of days off, now it'll take a while to get motivated to get back at it. Hope they fixed the list of problems with the truck,instead of just putting somebody in it and sending them on their way. By the way,water,hot sauce,and soap does NOT deter rabbits- -as a matter of fact,they must think it's pretty tasty-3 of them were in the garden last night,one was standing on his hind legs holding onto a cabbage plant with his front feet while he ate. Think i'll move the owl back to the garden and let the squirrels have the peaches-if that doesn't work i'm gonna put a white flag in the garden. Once again-I must be off now.

so much for that experiment-I was going to go to Concord today to make another mixer video to post on youtube,but Jobyna pulled something out of the refrigerator this morning and said "what tha' h! is this?-it's leaked all over the place!". D@%&! It was a boston butt I took out of the freezer Monday or Tuesday and plum forgot about. Couldn't put it back in the freezer,back to work tomorrow,so-I had to cook it,no other options. Smoked it in the antifreeze cooker to see how it worked,and Cooked it with the Neeley (The Neeleys- new show on Food Network) rib cooking method-indirect heat on both sides for a couple of hours,then I put it in a cheap aluminum pan and covered it tightly with wreynolds wrap and cooked it 'til it probed 180 degrees in the center with my meat doneness detection device (a.k.a. meat thermometer). Came out perfect! I'll probably slice some of it,and just chop the rest for bbq sammiches-I'll take some with me tomorrow,and leave Jo a little tiny piece. If I won the lottery,that's what i'd do-open a barbecue joint!

...FUNNY?...everybody I know here is as serious as a train wreck

wow,I hope I never break a spring,I didn't know they were that expensive. Each spring leaf on the mixer looks about 3/4" of an inch thick though-rides like it has no springs! Bad part is if I were to break one,they'd probably be even more expensive...harder to find...harder to remove used ones if you can find them-wow,hope I don't break a spring!

You're busy as usual I see-i've been on vacation this week. didn't go anywhere,just hung around the house. By the way,my Norton 360 antivirus that came already downloaded on my pc was about to expire and cost $59.99 to renew for a year.I was talking to Old Bill,the diesel gypsy,on Skype the other day and he sent me a link for a free antivirus download called "Avast". He says it's better than Norton. He uses the pro versian himself,but said the free version was all I needed for my pc.I like that part-"free"

oh yeah,i'm still cooking-cooked the best ribs ever just yesterday,but I used the antifreeze drum cooker. The old electric range was burned out, but it was still setting behind the shed.I replaced it with a brand new gas stove I found by the dumpster a while back. I haven't tried cooking/smoking anything really big,like a boston butt or a ham or turkey in the antifreeze cooker,but if it works ok for that i'll probably get rid of the gas stove too-to redneck looking

I took an old dryer,electric range,and a hot water tank to the recycler yesterday-brought $22.40...not bad,but I guess I need to keep digging before I can afford a truck,huh?

uh-oh. that's what i'll be using from now on then.

yeah,that's armstrong steering. I drove many trucks with that type steering. My b-model has power steering though,I've always just put motor oil in the reservoir.

glad we could help brighten your day-Joe is very funny.

beats me-the other day I got out of high school,got a job,got married,raised a family,now all of a sudden that's history,children are grown,I'm on the back side of 50...wtf?!!

I knew a screamer once,every time she-ahh,never mind!

http://youtube.com/watch?v=y2aOccbfAqE&feature=related ...now THAT'S what i'm talkin' 'bout! if you want to check out Pink Floyd,all their albums are good except "The Final Cut"...sucks,big time. "Dark Side of the Moon" is the best,"Delicate Sound of Thunder" is their best live album,but if you're only gonna get one,"Pulse" is the one to get-it has all the (well,most-it doesn't have "Pigs" on it) best songs,plus the entire "Dark Side of the Moon" on it.That's the concert tour they were on when I saw them at Carter Finley stadium in Raleigh,N.C. in the early 90's. The awesomeness of it defies description,especially the part when the giant inflatable pigs pop out from over the speaker towers during "One of These Days"...So much for today's music review

yeah,if I could do that i'd just take a bottle of ketchup with me for lunch every day

never mind,call off the search party again!

do you have a separate category for people like me,don't have a clue ,as opposed to those who really do know what they're talking about?

http://navlog.org/anwr_truth.pdf I found some interesting facts about ANWR on 700 WLW's site

very true too Kelly-I've known of several instances around here where parents have given their kid a car,for graduation or birthday,or just because they could afford to I guess,and they'll just tear the car all to pieces,dog it to death because they had no appreciation for it in the first place because they never had to work for it or pay for anything.

yeah,that's the part I understand,power and comfort,which I have none of either,and don't drive the mixer near as much as you drive yours. The short trip (little over 20 miles each way) to Toga will almost cook you in the summer. This is my favorite of all the trucks i'ver ever driven- a 2000 W900L w/N14 525hp Cummins,13spd,3.70s. Truck ran great,drove great,pulled strong,never broke down, but Jeff traded it for a P.O.S. Peterbilt w/ a cat engine because it had almost 700,000 lies on it.

Day 2 in the books,Might need to start a journal like a sailor finding new land. Captains Log Day 2: Having a hard time living with this woman, she cooks and cleans, calls me honey, then curses at me. I've yet to figure out how to successfully make her not complain....... Just pullin ya leg.... you don't know how true that is,Mr. Spock! She woofed all the way home from the store the other day when I looked over at the peach tree in the back yard at the house on the corner of Marysville Rd. and 699,just to see if there were any peaches on it. The very,very, attractive blonde that I said had a nice tan on the way to the store,wearing tight blue jeans and a red tank top, had gotten in the car and left while I was putting gas in the truck at the store,and when I looked at the peach tree she said "don't break your neck",insinuating that I was looking for the babe. Of course when I said I knew she wasn't home I was digging myself in deeper. I've never paid any attention to her-even the day she was out there pushing the lawnmower in those cut off short-shorts and tight white tank top,with her long blonde hair in a ponytail. She was on a riding mower yesterday,wearing jeans and a yellow top...but I didn't turn my head when we went by- I hardly noticed. I really don't pay any attention to her at all.

geez,all you had to do was rip 'em in half,and saw 4' off of them - 2 12' 2x2's-how much simpler could it be?

yeah,that's what I thought,but it's nunna my bidness

Rob has never been known to be wrong about anything...yet-but be careful,sometimes he's a B.S.er,though not in this case

I can understand that, but you know you'd miss it when you rolled into Norwalk and John Force ran over to ask "what tha' %#*! happened to your hauler? What tha' *&$! is this,a loaner?" It just wouldn't be the same
