More snow here...then cold, more snow again, then cold.
Blah blah blah.

Tried to tie the plastic arm onto my coat but it kept falling into the snow.

The latest ingredient [censored] was/is going to give some interesting result on the PHo00.

Scotty Its Kind Of Hard To Explain To People That Injured Lims Seam To Have A Mind Of Their Own .
Your Mind Tells It To Do One Thing And It Does What It Wants Instead.
Tablesaw And I Had A Run In A Fiew Years A Go - Lost Index Finger On Left Hand And Split Thumb In 1/2 Parrelell With Palm-lost Joint In Thumb -
I Have Overcome Most Problems With The Hand (cupple More Fingers Got Mangled Also) However At Times The Left Hanf Still Has A Mind Of Its Own -some Times Frustrating Some Times Amusing -in The End You Will Work Through It.
Stay Warm -

Angry *!@#$*!!!!!!

Dagum good for nuthin' ULSD..... Crap gels way too soon (think tempeture wise). Truck ran for about 2 min this AM when I went out to start it before getting off work. Weather guessers said it was only -35 or -36*F last night but it was apparently -45*. Good thing I suspected it might happen and took everything to change one in the cold with me to work.

I can change the filter and bleed out the injectors on my own in 10 minutes flat but it's a bit chilly to doi it when it's -45*F.

Gotta love life in the last frontier. Gotta get the kid off to school and hit the rack for a few.... See y'all in the PM.
