HeavyGunner Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 I slept through it my wife was awake and said she could feel it. http://mobile.reuters.com/article/idUSKBN19R0JV Quote The problems we face today exist because the people who work for a living are outnumbered by the people who vote for a living.The government can only "give" someone what they first take from another.

BillyT Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Any of you guys see the aftermath of hurricane Andrew? Worst thing I've ever seen! Katrina didn't look nearly as bad,but it was water, and Andrew was wind! Some guy from Ocala brought a couple of rigs down to Homestead and Cutler ridge Florida and hauled away so much aluminum siding that he created a glut on the scrap aluminum market, and the price was so low it wasn't worth hauling away! I hauled roof insulation from La grange Ga to Miami for several months continuously! A lot of contractors got rich after Andrew and every disaster!

BillyT Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Mower man,I hauled two little reefer trucks into San Francisco two weeks before that quake in 89, crossed that bridge that fell into the bay! Crossed that bridge on I 35 in Minnesota that fell a week before it did! Makes you think! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mowerman Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Man you are a lucky guy....man I was hooking up a set at the dock with a U model when it struck I thought it was a forklift running out of the box at first. Then it just got worse everything shaking. Trailers swaying like trees power lines looked like jump ropes I was frozen stiff death grip on the wheel. Horrible....but yes Oakland suffered severe damage was TerribleSent from my XT1096 using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
