Just did an oil change on the Lotus.... Ho..... ly...... Fa..... rk.... You have to remove the right front wheel, then snake your arm through to the back of the engine, curse a lot and figure out how to get your arm back out, then figure out how to get your arm back in with a filter wrench, curse some more, finally get the damn thing free and dribble out all over the differential then repeat in reverse.... |

There's no gardening chore that can't be successfully accomplished through the proper use of napalm.

What? No pigs?! And what if you find wild Restrictions eating up your garden. Since you can't shoot em can you at least trap em or poison em or something? What kind of fence keeps restrictions out anyways?

So, story time.
Back in April, I got tagged by a hit/run driver. Got a plate number, filed the report, police investigated and charged her. Mysteriously, the morning of her trial I come out to three tires cut on the DD, surveillance camera didn't kick on, so no video of the incident. I get to the trial and as I walk in past Ghetto Skank, she gets this shocked look on her face and says "how'd you get here?" Hmmm...... She gets 180 days. FF to Christmas, get the TPMS warning when we start the car to go to the parents house. Yup, another cut tire - luckily the one that didn't get replaced. Caught on video. Cut to New Years day, look out the window and there's paint all over my roof of the car. Caught on video also, rather clearly. Uniform and detective come out, find the empty gallon can of paint, the lid, the bag she hauled it here in. Showed them the video, the officer (who's had dealings with this person over the years looks at it right away and says "that's her...". They file criminal damaging and retaliation charges against her - picked her up on Thursday. Turns out the retaliation is relatively new F3 on the books. Looking forward to this, gonna be fun.

Last shrub I messed with was an evergreen. Started to go back up the car to pull it up and visiting friend said just a minute. He took a few steps back, tackled it like a linebacker and it came right out. Didn't have much for roots.

Be careful, the unemployed and squirrels have something in common. Neither have anything to do all day except mess with your stuff.
Two blocks from the house in my old neighborhood referenced earlier guy came home drunk hitting a neighbor's trash cans, scattering the trash and smashing a couple cans flat. That neighbor took an axe and broke out all the windows in the the drunk's car. The drunk then went a visiting with a kitchen knife and stabbed the trash can neighbor 27 times. Over the next year the surviving wife of deceased neighbor put an eight foot chain link fence with barbed wire at the top around the house like you see at prisons, got a new Mercedes, then moved away. After the house sold the new owners did take down the prison fencing.

 Although I felt a bit like having a spit, fortunately it never eventuated. Cutting the hob out of the shower recess this morning - playing with a 9" grinder with a diamond blade and a jackhammer, woohoo!  Afternoon/Evening Y'all

Richard - The good thing is I work from home and travel has been pretty non-existent lately as I picked up local projects instead of having to bounce between coasts. There's someone here 90% of the time.

Hehe, took my pup to the dog park today. She's all of 20 inches high at the shoulders and 60lbs. There were two Malamutes there that were right on top of her from the moment we arrived. Finally, the bigger of the two peed on her she flipped the F out, tore his rear end up and sent him whimpering! Needless to say, she got a bath today after the dog park.

my 32lb english setter gets feisty at the dog park. just today, she went bonkers because she thought another dog was picking on our newfoundland/pyrenees 'puppy' (60lbs already). one of these days, another dog is going to beat the living bejesus out of her.
