That stinks hav. You too Mark. Maybe that's why I've never had cats or dogs. The neighbor's cat comes over and hangs out for a while then it goes back home
That's plenty good enough to me because I don't feed it.
Next door neighbor at times had their own dog, and their son's dog at another point in time. When I got home from work, the dog would run over and request a rub on the head and then go back home. that was good enough for him and that was good enough for me.
 
You know what I did today?
I drove my project car into work, the whole 58 kilometers. I was terrified! I didn't know for sure it would make it, im a floor layer not a mechanic and well to quote a famous TV show from the last little while "you know nothing John Snow"
On the weekend I finished the exhaust and the waterpump/timing belt replacement then took it for a rip around the block... except I forgot to fill it up with coolant and apparently didn't torque my lugs back up because my tire went rolling down the road beside me. Lucky it was all of 2 houses from mine and I could just trundle across the street and get my jack and impact and go again but she made it in boys and im still alive to tell the tale :)
Now I can work on making it all pretty again because in this state..... well.... its anything but.

This was my last project. A tree fell on it end to end. One of 300 made.

Did a pressure sensitive adhesive hardwood removal, had to go home and get the ride on for @ 350 ft,

Is that a Buick Regal standard shift Rusty? My friend got into those, then the Buick Nationals.

That's a Lesabre. I had redone the whole car. Only 300 were made with the metallic paint, the wire wheel covers and the 1/2 vinyl top. I did the re pinstripe myself. After the tree fell on it , the trunk, hood and top were down on the floorboards. Only thing salvaged were the new tires.
 
Or “Rusty” but it’s not rusty, reminds me the same friend said Hey Dick to a family friend, so after they talked his friend said why did you call that guy a Dick? Classic stuff still makes me laugh.

so, what’s the value of that car?
 
One reason why I don’t like working far from base.

That’s why my van looks like this. We all want to see what Mark’s van looks like inside;) Nothing worse than having to run back to the house or adding an extra day on to a job because you don’t have something you need. You pull a trailer all the time? Or just when necessary? Is that something you put on and off as needed? Prolly not worth it to pull around an extra couple thousand pounds if not necessary.

I can’t really say one side is better than the other, they both have their down sides. Maybe we can put them all on a cruise ship and sink it. Kinda like turning your letters in in Scrabble. Take your chances and start over cus this hand sucks.

Oh they MORE than suck. I had the idea we move the U.S Capital from Washington DC to somewhere in the middle of the nation and forbid Democrats and Republicans from entering on penalty of death for their Crimes Against Humanity.


Just them though. The rest of us are free to participate in Democracy.

That just might be the best idea I have heard in a long time!
