Hi to all my friends that I havent talked to in a while.Im sorry I havent been around but its been kinda hectic in my world lately.
After the big storm and 12 inches of rain my internet at home came back,only to go back down a few days later.So getting on at home is out.
I do a lot of my work online and cant do any from home anymore so it makes work time less available.I dont have any Mechanics this year as nobody wants to work,or they put out terrible work,which I cant deal with,so Im the only mech. I have this year.
On top of that,I have caught 2 secretarys robbing the till,so Im the secretary and parts person as well.And Im having to do most of the bookkeeping as well.Alas,Toms been pretty busy this summer.
Ive had a hard time logging on to PB too,but Im sure its a glitch in my new puter,as is has quite a few bugs my guy is trying to get worked out.
So fear not,I didnt drown(yet)or get killed doing something stupid at the house or work(yet),just been really busy.I do try to get on and lurk sometimes but even thats been hard.

Hi Tom, we've missed you and glad to hear that you're at least alive.
Hope things ease up for you soon.


Just do it...

the oxen is slow, but the earth is patient

Remember, there's no problem that can't be fixed with the proper application of high explosives.

Theo, you beat me to it.

Good to hear that nothing is seriously wrong Tom. Time and cooler temps will make things right.

TOM G, I'm always at your disposal to fire you.

Hey Tom, yep I hear that it has been hot at home. I've been in Seattle for the last 6 weeks. Lots of time the temps have had a hard time hitting 75. I'm thinking Snowbird.

Tom, Tom, Tom. You know if you pull this disapearing act again we will have to send someone out to hunt you down (probably JHAP). You are forgiven this time but don't let it happen again. You are not immune to explosives.


In Dog Beers, I've had one.
