Yeah - but I've been reading about your parousing with Nevada Ed and his collection! ;)

We're all envious of your Coleman kills, Scott. ...and what's "parousing"?

:R



A good three hours here so far this morning...

Helped fork off a truck and trailer load of heavy redwood planking and some 30' long "silent joists"/TJI/engineered lumber/whatever for a different show. Needed two forklifts to synchronize the single lift of the bundles of redwood... that was fun.

Since then I've had a bite to eat, washed the truck, washed the truck rag, etc... plugged in the shore power (e-cord) to my lil' laptop here...

And now I get to hang out witcho0 gize! ...for a second.

:lol:

Two fairly decent nights sleep in a row, I'd forgotten how that felt. Almost feels strange NOT being tired all the time lol. Maybe the days at work will go by faster now, that would be a bonus. Time to get back at it and keep all those needed products safely moving around America for all the wonderful consumers. :roll:

Hump day is here, so lets be careful out there and have a fine day! 8)

drivin' the desk mostly these days Chris. My back can no longer withstand full time driving, some of my parts are getting old faster than others. Paying the interest on a reckless youth I reckon :lol:

That's weird. Why would anyone take issue with whatever you wear around your neck? It's your neck! :roll:


probably someone with an "axe to grind" :thinking: I tend to be a little progressive in my thinking and I would not ever comment about what a person wears for religious purposes - other than to please explain the significance (and that is just out of curiosity)

I think he doesn't know how lucky he is to have encountered The Reverend Mr Scott and not Scott the Marine :lol:

Good answer by the way :thumbsup: I could not be so eloquent with such an a$$


My first thought was to "rip his head off and shove it up his. . . but would be very "Christian" of me either!

:lol: :lol: :lol: Marines always lay somewhere close to the surface when challenged


:x NO WE DON'T!!!

I do have 10 lbs to lose to reach my goal. :roll:


that would do it.. and then some.. :D :roll:


I tend to loose around 30#

although a significant amount is water... and the hard thing is.. after you want to EAT.. and your body has gone into survival mode.. so it likes to hang onto everything you eat.


And I'm sure your body resorts to eating your muscles through all this as well. :roll:


maybe not too badly.. it is not like we are very physically active..
