  1. yeah, that's the bad thing about here. It's 104 right now and it only gets worse in July and August. I use to work at a Solar Plant and we would see the temps around 130 pretty regularly...with all the reflections and stuff...I don't think that it was really that hot out, just being around all those mirrors.


  2. :) that's what all my family says back there in Kentucky. It hasn't been a big deal yet, and I've been through about 4 pretty big ones. The last one was centered in Big Bear about 4 miles from my house...knocked some stuff off of walls and my wifes hutch, but other than that I was back asleep within a half hour. You kinda get use to it I guess.....

    If there were 6 or 7 a year, I would leave here. You guys have all kinds of storms and rain, doesn't it get a little depressing? That is about the only reason that I don't move back to KY myself. I love it there and it will probably always be my home, but I don't think that I could live there because of the weather.


  3. I've been so busy I haven't been able to watch any news or anything lately. Just heard on the news that Al-Zawaqari..(or however you spell it) met God yesterday. I'm pretty sure that he wasn't granted 72 virgins upon his judgement day yesterday. Bout time this jerk gets whats comin!


  4. Looked at a very nice job today, black roof, will turn out great but she has oil stains in the drive way. I have heard hot water machines wiil take them out but I have a cold water unit. Any ideas?

    get a hotbox :) You can try some sodium hydroxide, but without hot water I'm not sure that it will remove anything, just kinda spread it around. Try what John said if it's wet. I use it on roofs all the time, just like he said and it does work great.


  5. I love mine...I like them for hood cleaning as well, they are black ( at least mine are ) and they don't show any grease if/ when I splash a little grease on them. I also like that they are bib bottoms so out here when it's still 90 degrees at night I can wear a short sleeve shirt and the bibs.....

    Hope you like them as much as I :)


  6. The only time I take cover is if the weather brings in a lot of lightening. I'm a little scared of lightening.

    your not kidding.....I had lightening strike in my yard about 20 yards from my wife last year. It split a tree right down the middle (vertically) and destroyed my computer through the phone line....It was pretty scarry.


  7. When I'm cleaning a hood, I tell them that I WILL not spray the chemicals with them in the kitchen. If they want to watch the rest of the time...hey go for it, they are usually so impressed I get referrals or a tip out of it. Because of insurance though, they must not be around the chemicals.....

    My father-in-law is one of these guys. Retired Fire cheif and is use to bossing everybody around. The other day he was telling the satelite guy how, where to run his cable. It was hilarious....the rest of us sat in the house watching this poor installer guy get red in the face.....
