    I've been eyeing some BFG's from Discount Tire via ebay, some different brands and sizes are on an awesome discount + they are running a $100 off coupon.

    Lots of rainbows today. I hope you can see it in the picture. Not often do we get the full bow effect.

    A guy i know has a shop near me and he's a cooper tire dealer. He sells them at basically his cost plus cooper offers an "up to $70 off" rebate from time to time. I've purchased two sets from him (at3's for my truck and ultra touring for the mrs car). I'm leaning towards another set of at3's. They're an awesome all around tire.

    Finally was able to get back out to the city woodpile dump. Two loads of a mix of mulberry, maple, and hackberry. It had been since November that I did any wood work. Feels so good to be back at it, but I do admit i'm sore!!!!!

    So, if oldie olderson jumped out of the car with it in drive and running, and on a collision course with a Ferrari and a Lamborghini, how was he able to get back in and stop it?

    You'll get 10 years/ 120,000 miles of warranty on the motor once they replace it. Hyundai recalls 470,000 Sonatas to fix engine problem

    Yep, my buddy already has almost enough sap collected to run a batch.

    My Kawasaki bayou is getting a lot of use between me with the firewood, and my buddy and his maple syrup.

    I'm sore too from my wood hoarding today as well.


    It's all good though. The heat from a wood stove is hard to beat.

    I wish guys like you were around here when I was buying wood. The cheapest I ever bought a cord around here was 200, and that was all catalpa. Low btu stuff.

    Good morning, we might see 60-ish today and a good chance of rain. No "arbeits haus" for me today, still swilling coffee.
    Need to tend the greedy hungry wood monster out back and start a fire in the garage stove..thinking it's a good day for "pacing" myself and puttering around doing nothing important.
    You good people be safe in whatever you do today.

    (I had originally posted this in a different thread before I realized my mistake)

    Went into work this morning and waited around for an hour for the boss to show up.
    I am now sitting at home waiting for a call from him when he wakes up (his wife answered on second attempt to reach him).

    It is so slow now that I offered to stay home this week, but he said come in. Since that offer, he has stayed home two days himself, not counting today!

    I'm thinking he forgot about me and thought I would be off all week as my partner is.
