  1. What do YOU do, when this happens! lol!!

    Car radios? I don't understand.
  2. Happy Holidays from John & Kathy

    Nice job, looks good but where's the snow? I've already been plowing in Massachusetts. You're not to far from me.
  3. Lisa from Princess Powerwashing Hospitalized

    How was her health before the H1N1? I'm sure that plays a part in the recovery.
  4. best Christmas decoration

    That's Funny!

    Did insurance help out?
  6. Alarm clock set

    Set for 2AM to plow snow, Winter sux.
  7. Amanda Knox - guilty?

    I've been there a few times in recent years and was never impressed with it. Rome is not a clean city at all and many people have few manners. I'll never forget the lady that took a whiz on the sidewalk about 20 feet in front of me. Nasty. Beautiful statues spray painted, trash on the lawns... You get the idea, similar to some parts of the USA. To be fair I've been to Europe many times (going again in three months) and each country I have been to has it's "places."
  8. is every one cold enough yet?

    Snowing right now. Just put the plow on the truck.
  9. Strange things

    Enough water getting to the pump? What size supply line are you using?
  10. Love those headlines

    It went something like "JLo fall on her butt during awards but is unharmed. Stage floor is in critical condition." Still makes me laugh.
  11. Nine years ago tomorrow.

    Yeah, it was nine years ago tomorrow I got married to a beautiful girl I met while walking around Eastern Europe. Her name is Polina and I still can't understand why she wanted to marry a guy who makes his living washing buildings. Wow, so much has changed. Baby boy, new house new cars, new man toys, new garage next year, etc.) On top of that she sold a small piece of land she owned in Bulgaria for half a million dollars last year. Life is good. Nine years, feels like last week.
  12. I loved Sam Kinison. "This is sand.. want to eat some M... fuc....er. God, I loved the way he laughed.
  13. Nine years ago tomorrow.

    Yes there is Dan, you're right. In fact that's how she got her first "real" job in the USA. She started with Comcast through a friend of mine as a disptcher because she was the only one that could speak Russian. (She actually speaks Russian better than English). Now she is a real big shot with Comcast. Russian is one of her 7 fluent languages including Latin, (along with 6 others that are not too flient). Aside from that she has two masters degrees. I always wonder how you can get a package like that. Someone that doesn't mind being married to me. I guess I'm not too bad after all.
  14. Who's your Daddy?

    Wow, too cute. Better not let my wife see this or she'll want another!
  15. I refuse to get out of bed for 45 an hour.
  16. I've heard it a million times, mostly from the more affluent older retired folks. I call it the AAPR speach. " I'm on a fixed income, bla,bla,bla." Meanwhile there's a new Caddy in the driveway of a 3/4 million dollar house. If I tell the average working-class Joe that I charge 250-300 an hour to do his roof and I'll be done in less than two hours he'll jump at it. The older affuent people think I'm nuts for charging that much. Move on to where the money is and do a good job so they tell their friends.
  17. Avoid mixing these together!

    Go to youtube and search for brake fluid and chlorine mix. Lots of idiots out there.
  18. Winter is upon us, so?

    Soooo not true in my little corner of the planet.
  19. Winter is upon us, so?

    Every year I say I'm going to give up plowing but never seem to. If you have someone riding in the truck with you it's not too bad but if you're alone in that truck for 8 hours it can get pretty tough. The money's great but many times it doesn't seem worth it. I hope my son wants to plow when he grows up.
  20. I'm not sure how long you can let it dwell for. Good question.
  21. Hey Mike, how's it going? Nice job on your first wood cleaning, it looks good. The acid would have made it a little brighter but as long as the customer was happy... I was thinking of you a few days ago while coming back from a job. The transmission started acting up on the truck! Turns out it was just low on oil due to a leak in the return line. Cheap fix thank God. I don't need anpther one of those 2500 dollar bills like I had on the last truck for a smoked transmission. Standard shifts are a lot cheaper but they are a real pain when plowing snow.
  22. Last night my wife asked me if I knew where the round pizza pan was. Sure I told her, it's up on the roof of the house being used as a ground plane for a mobile magnetic ham radio antenna. She didn't think it was too funny but I thought you guys might get a laugh out of it.
  23. Have you tried misting a little fuel in the carb just as it begins to stall? If that keeps it running you may have a little dirt in the jet preventing the fuel to flow. Wouldn't hurt to take a look at the float if you've got it apart.
  24. Downstreaming rig

    Warning signs on ebay.
  25. Go with the oxalyic acid.
