PA Dutchman

We've been installing GutterFilter and have gotten great responses on jobs we've bid. Pricing of this is a little better than what we're paying. Not to much info on the warranty but an easy sell regardless.

Ditto on that one... I had to sneak some to into the fridge ahead of time...we tend not to have any leftover....Lots of stuffing left, Tonya made 2 kinds.

Last evening, Tonya and I got to meet Beth, Rod, their family, Roger, Celeste, and the puppies. It was great to finally shake hands with the folks I've had the pleasure to speak with and learn from in the past...(Always is) Made it home safely and little Miss Cocoa loves the girls and her canine brother Moogley... I swear I saw a tear in Roger's eye when he said his goodbye to Cocoa...BUT she's in good hands. Cocoa, Moogley, and I are listening to the Panthers play until I go clean some banks. Thanks for the hospitality Rod and Beth. Roger and Celeste, thank you for the pup, she made us laugh the whole ride home.

BUT Wayne you are working on extra miles...:lgbounces

GREAT LOOKING RESULTS!!! Can't wait to see how the roof turns out!

Jeff, I wasn't taking a shot at you buddy. Just posting a comment.

Well, at least they are still in business......BUT I feel for you, I'm glad I didn't take the "public humiliation" route to get things taken care of.

Congratulations...we hoped to get the little man, but we're going to settle for Cocoa...

the beaches look very relaxing.

That is just showing off Celeste!...Nice use of skills and resources. I remember in school building a project with a bucket of joint compound....got a B+....wasn't quite cured and the isthmus made two extra pennisulas. Is it topographical to scale or just the basic outline of South America?

Sorriest thing is the 'leadership' issue at state levels can be just as frustrating. In PA we have a governor who has done some good things but, in the same respect has done some questionable things. Twice as many lottery options, raised taxes with the promise of relief once slot machines arrive...conveiniently after the next election, his focus on his old stomping grounds, and to top it off he has been more concerned with the Philthedephia Eagles than his own constituents. The mudslinging at our senator level is getting ugly...Santorum threw the first punch... Considering the source of the information plays a role, but, sometimes our 'instilled' beliefs cloud our judgement. An educated choice is the best choice. Most important thing is to vote period. WEW may not like harleys but he makes a valid point about voting.

knock on wood, I've never lost either trailer, but I have run out of fuel going up an incline on a fairly busy highway. Having learned from a friend's mistake I double check connections at the first stop....hey "f" the guy honking the horn behind me, its for his safety as well. Actually my 'new to me' truck has a nice reminder to verify connections...a big ole dent mid tailgate.

Florida is a vacation/retirement destination. as far a my APW skid....I've had issues with it and the expenses incurred did hurt, was it RPC's fault??? No, he didn't assemble the machine nor was he responsible for aquiring the suppliers for the components. New coil...burner fuel pump..."powdercoating failure"....leaking tanks.... Machine works great now thanks to consults with Steve and Bob.

no kidding. Too bad, if they knew what they were doing they'd still be in business. APW seems to have been a 'hack' outfit. TOO bad they snookered others into selling their secondhand product. Just goes to show what Florida is about......$$$$$

If the result of our mission is to better the industry why should it matter WHO'S board gets the most traffic? Educating newcomers should have NO direct involvement of a vendor, advising of what works for "us" should be more relavent. Bragging rights are a waste of energy and a waste of time

You need to change YOUR name to Phillip DoesALOT. Nice site.

That is interesting. I'm sure their are legitimate reasons and BS excuses for all the complaints.

great piece of advice mr. phelps. Sometimes we are blinded by the all mighty dollar.

If you're driving from Fredneck to Deep Creek its paying enough. "chicken ladder", fall protection, good chems, right application with a rinse. don't waste $$ on a boomlift. Where abouts are you in Frederick? I've got friends all around down there. Good luck on the job it can look real good.

Don't jinx them......:lgsideway .......Can't argue with SI....they picked the colts and the panthers for XL......guess we are one week closer... The colts were just outplanned...the Pats.....they've had their chapter in the book..... If I wasn't as committed to my location my blue blood would be in Charlotte. Its my sister's fault really...she live there first.

Football is played on Sunday. visitors have delivered. underdogs win. can't think of anymore cliche's

skins patriots steelers panthers last two....super bowl xl. should it turn out pats and panthers...this time not by a field goal but a panther td.

about the original post....the company whom Ken has "brought out" is one of our competitors....Though their techniques leave them out of the loop, they do have a TV commercial on late at night....during UPN's 10:30 pm programming, 'king of queens', 'everybody loves raymond'.... From my own observations their equipment sits more than it is ran. In their defense their was snow on the ground in the video....so anything over 40 degrees would tend to create "steam"

Got my Sirius Satellite for the truck/headphones, a Maxim calendar, and our headstart for 2006. My two VERY happy little girls were pleased and my wife was pleasantly surprised with the gifts we gave her.

You know this is exactly how that BNI works, everyone knowing someone.
