There'll be a party in my pants and I hear everyone's coming.

Cool, Frankie's going to be a special guest. We've corresponded several times, but never met. I'll save him a special seat next to me at the Spearmint Rhino.

LOL!!!! I lasted three weeks as an outside lineman. First week was great. Second and third week found me falling off poles three times, once from ~20' with 40 lbs. of tools on. Since then I've stayed off of wood poles as much as possible. LOL! Steel poles and towers, now that's a different...

I would never give someone step by step instructions if they have no experience, but I recall Gonz had some experience in wiring. It's always best to consult an expert, unless you're doing plumbing. All you need to know there is that shit runs downhill and payday is on Friday. :whistling...

I'm more of a Sipowicz man, myself.

Wow... $2000 for a new service!! I wanna do that all week long!!! Replacing a service in a house, shouldn't be more than a days work for one guy. Maybe two days if the current wiring needs a lot of work. Depending on what needs to be replaced, I'd say $1000-$1250... but hard to say without...

To add a bit, after re-reading your initial post. The wires coming into your new 200 amp panel will need to be either 3/0 copper or 4/0 aluminum in order to be the right size. I don't know what your power company does in your area, but we have to provide everything on the house, which means all...

Put in a new panel today.... First, you'll need the meter pulled and the electric company will need to verify that your existing service is big enough for a new 200 amp service. If not, you'll need a new meter base outside, along with new wiring into the new breaker panel. YOU CANNOT REPLACE A...

Chris Mitchell, waliguy passed away Friday in a car accident. I feel lucky to have known Chris and called him a friend. Please have your thoughts and prayers directed toward our brother Chris and his family and friends. CF Tribute To Waliguy

I just got back from picking up a pack of Backwoods to use as my exchange cigars. I'll keep them out on the counter until the box gets to me. I wouldn't want them to get too wet in my cabinet.

Invictas are not for handing down to your kids, IMHO. While they are nice watches, for the price, they are not going to hold any value. For $500-$600 you're probably going to have a hard time finding something that is going to increase in value, though I don't know if that's what you are really...

We've told our kids since they were babies. At 8 years old, they still don't really know exactly what it means in all aspects. But, they do know where they were born and that they were adopted. Being an international adoption, where they will more than likely never be able to know there birth...

That's one thing I've never seen, though I've been called donkey d*ck from time to time. LOL!

We adopted our children internationally, so we didn't have to go through what you are talking about. But, you may want to contact your local Catholic Charities. They were able to answer several questions for us when we first thought about adoption.

Sometimes when we touch, the honesty's too much, so I have to close my eyes and cry...

El Laguito has changed immensely since 2000, Harris. While I personally have not been there, I have seen very recent pictures and not only has the quality control been severely improved, the place looks like a hospital, as far as cleanliness. I know Wilkey has seen these pics as well and can...

I'll be on the road here in a bit. See you guys ~4:00 or so.

I just won $100 on a scratch off lottery, so unless something comes up, I'll be there. Will need to come back home after, but that's no problem.
