    NO chit!! WWW and kiddo were walking across the road when he heard the truck coming and got her to the shoulder. Not Funny. I went through a fire 6x this size and 10X the residents evacuated and never had to dodge a flipping gov't vehicle to get a picture.

    As much as I want to side with you, I can't on this. If the gubbament oaf-ficials can get to one area to help others sooner by speeding, so be it.

    Normally I'd be all over that.

    Rules are meant to be broken, sometimes. Keep the kiddo and critters off the road for now.

    For a photo op?? Sorry. I'm on your side again. A picture won't be speeding the extinguishment of the fires.

    Just had an epiphany this morning! My friend gave me his multi tool a few years ago and I have since replaced the old one with it. I use it daily and it almost never leaves my side! When my truck shifting cable broke I took the truck apart with it! It gets used at work ALL the time... It has saved my bacon regularly. It's a joke at work and called the death knife because it's metal and we do a lot of electrical work..:hair::rofl: :lol:



    So today I decided it was worth looking for a needle nose plier version then realized the name was MP600...... And then I realized he had given me his military issued multi tool.... I had a totally different version when I was in and it didn't look much like his. I lost it and felt terrible when I lost mine. I was on a greyhound bus coming back from a Utah job interview many years ago.

    Now I want to give it back to him! If I'd been able to keep mine I'd have been a happy man a good tool with lots of memories for both of us....

    That should be called in to the police. A pic is not worth a life. Hang in there.

    What a cool thing to do Pallet Pete ! The fan speed controller broke off in the Blazer, the plastic was brittle after all these years, I had a mini leatherman in the door pocket all those years it was my primary vehicle to change the fan speed, and.....Lost it. I hope yours turns up soon Dennis.

    Installed the window ac unit in the garage so I'm not sweating while I drink my cold beer :coldone:
