WILL YOU GUYS MAKE UP YOUR MINDS????
YOU'RE the administrator... CHANGE IT!
It should be 'watercooler'. W-A-T-E-R C-O-O-L-E-R! We've always done it that way! It's a tradition! We don't call our Dodge's 'Chevy's' or 'Ford's' or anything else they ain't, why should this be any different? Ya ever notice the ones that are forever changin' the name are the same dang people that are always floatin' around in the water? I think they're just tryin' to FORGET about water!

I need more

Not to disagree with you but ah, I disagree with you. I believe it was "weekly thread" or something like that before it was water cooler or all that other stuff.

Yeah, but SCUTTLEBUTT has the ring to it !!! General Store sounds kinda "Little House on the Prairie" .... and water cooler, well it sounds pretty industrial.

All in favor of SCUTTLEBUTT say Aye ..... well there you go, the Ayes have it !!

It's time for bed, my eyes are crossed and I'm all confused.

But changing the thread title keeps you guys on your toes.

Planned on having a quite weekend with everyone out of the house, but got call from hubby's friend saying they were moving and I needed to come get his stuff that was stored over there. Figures that they would have to move when hubby is gone and it's all heavy stuff that's got to be moved. Good think I have the truck to move stuff and friends I can call on when I need help.

You DO know that to post a picture, you first need a camera of some type, right? 'IMG' means 'Image', not 'Imagine'. I guess we could imagine a chipper, but an actual picture would be real nice!

<sigh> Poor ol' Arkansas boys!

Not that I really expected any "help" from one of the "Bostonian Bubbas".
I do, in fact, have a 10010101011101001 (aka +5,0,0,+5,0,+5,0,+5,0,+5,+5,+5,0,+5,0,0,+5) camera. I do know how to use it 'cause there ain't many moving parts. I just have problems at times hooking up the jumper cables. The battery posts are kinda small.
It's an Olathe(as in Kansas) Model 816. 300 ci Ford 6 banger. 3-16" blades/teeth/tree eaters. The hours are actual. It needed tires, plugs and wires, and a good flushing. Gonna guess $500 or less will get it up and running. It is a beast.
Hotdram, being the very considerate converted Yankee that he is, is gonna fix me up on the pics(insert a tongue sticking out smilie).

Where is that darned janitor/maid/coffee making person?
Need some SERIOUS high test caffiene to even think about getting out of the chair this morning.

SR's still pushing wet stuff toward the right coast.
Florida looks to be getting their first major storm of the season.
Hope the rain helps with the drought and wildfires they've been experiencing.

Ohhhh, 'chippa' ! I wasn't really sure what a 'chipper' was, but with the pics, now it all makes sense!

Hey Chris, good to see you back, if only temporarily!

's done. Yeah, yeah, I know it's late. Had to do some 'first thing in the AM' stuff before I could tend to the coffee maker. Sorry. Oh yeah, and I made it a little stronger than usual this AM, just for you Shovel!

Have a dandy day!
