Madhat's sleeping and feeling 'nothing'
Josh the cowboy is drunk and singing (do de dohhhhh)
Chaikwa the blind, hairy guy WANTS to feel nothing, but drank a spider
Tim felt that Eric was in over his head while fixing the septic, and both felt the slimy goo that was Tim's yard...
hehehe Scotty- did you get 'pinned'? LOL

Glad to see things are looking better. Stuck at work so no Labatts till Saturday! I got my wife a Wii for her b-day. I got a game pack with cow racing in it. Try that after a couple beers, fun and funny, loooots of laughs.
Enjoy the concert,

Looks like someone tied one off last night!
Evening DTR and morning Madhat. Slow again at work. It was in the 80s today, very nice day. Got a side job this weekend changing out a VP44, should bring some good money. Taking an nice train ride with the GF sunday evening, bought tickets for a steam train last week, 2hrs in the country of rural Indiana near the kankakee river, I'll have some good pics to share from it. Got a set of 5" grand rock straight cut stacks for free today. Brought them home and gave'em a good polish. They look like mirrors now. Dunno if I'm going to install them on my truck, kinda want a single 7" stack instead but these were free. Spent some time with the GF tonight and also talk to a good friend from Texas too. enjoying a beer now.

Yeah what else can they do to a diesel electric locomotive its already part hybrid in that sense! They might be refitting it with a couple smaller engines instead of one big one. Idleing around it runs on one smaller diesel, need some power and its starts up the second diesel, need even more power and the third one starts up. Seen one up close before, it was using 3 700hp Cummins engines, might be QSK19's
Gnight DTR.

I've never seen that before... you'll have to teach me that one. You mean standing still, not moving, right?
Sicko... Lucky you on the stacks, I want some, but don't want to give up my tool box.
Who are you?
Afternoon, DTR. It's been a rough few days. I have a long weekend now with nothing going on, just gonna hang out in the bks, drink beer and stare at the wall all day. And sharpen my knife.

You're still talking about Josh, right?
Good morning all.
Here's your history;
On this day in 1841 - Henry Kennedy received a patent for the first reclining chair.
1849 - Abraham Lincoln received a patent for the floating dry dock.
1868 - Near Marshfield, IN, The "Great Train Robbery" took place. The robbery was worth $96,000 in cash, gold and bonds to the seven members of the Reno gang.
1892 - Dr. Sheffield, a British dentist, invented the toothpaste tube.
Have a day!
chaikwa.

Awww, what could possibly be that bad?
Skidder pin went better than I expected it to. Removed the old ones, split the machine, replaced all the parts and put it back together in a little less than 4 hours.
Now it's time for lemonade and a nap!

WOW, where was everyone today - - off goofing around? Even the ph00 is old an still almost full. Was there a party and no one told me about it???
Heidi- - I will grab some pics some time - - I only have one blooming right now -- I am a newbie with these things. I have about 200 gardenias in my yard. My goodness, the spent blooms are so thick on the ground I am having to periodically rake them up. Never had this many - - three of my bushes that have never bloomed are just full. Whole yard is ablaze with colors - - so pretty.
Slept lousy last night, so heading in early tonight. Sorry Claude, not going to keep you company. Heading in - - have good sleep gang.

Claude you got rain? Still seeing dust devils here. Lot of tent worms popping up too with the trees being so stressed from the drought.
