    They're having a "fiesta party" for lunch at work right now. Everyone is cutting up with each other and being chummy. It's unbearable. If I had fish to reheat in my microwave or something to make a smoothie in my blender I would do that to annoy their party. Guess I'm going out for lunch.

    Lol no. I can't possibly explain my reasoning but the few people I like are older and ready to retire, one already has, and they work in completely different areas.

    Completely normal. I wouldn't want to work where I like anyone.

    I did that once with my truck license plates and registration. I got pulled over for doing a farmers stop at a stop sign. Highway patrolman came up and informed me the plates were expired for 2 years. He asked what I was doing and I replied ,"Not getting into too much trouble or one of you would have informed me earlier.". He was not very amused but wrote me a fix it ticket.


    I picked up my anvil like object yesterday. I have my grandfather's 125# hay Budden wrought iron anvil. Now I have this #1000 piece of steel for an anvil. I drilled and tapped it for the lift eyes so it easier to move. When stood up it's knuckle high. I plan on making a base for it out of 3" angle iron along the sides and have a long section of angle on one end to stabilize it. Anvils go for $5-$8/pound. I got this for $250 at a scrap yard. No hard face but I'll never wear it out being a hobby blacksmith.

    According to pictures I've seen on our local TV stations ULocal group page, even the caterpillars are confused. Some are all black, some have no/almost no black, and others are in between.

    I would go get my free food and then take it out where I normally have lunch (in my case, my desk or outside - if I still went in to the office).

    When I was a young lad I was really interested in weather and these type of things kept popping up. So I started paying attention to them. After several years of lieing caterpillers I have always scoffed at them as just another old wives tale.
