randyp Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 The National Seismographic and Theoretical Nuclear Federal Department of Terrestrial Land and Tremor Survey called me on my cell phone today. I dont know where they got my number. They said sensors and alarms were going off in my area and wanted to know if I had any giant brushpiles going on, well, magine that, I said I did. They said earth had tilted 4 degrees off its axis and was in danger of spinning out of control, due to my large piles and inbalance of nature thereof and offered to go ahead and pay me daily wages to just quit and go home. I suggested they load all the cargo planes they had with ball bearings and peterbilt scrap (oughta be lots of that) and go on other side and dump it for counterbalance cause I had work to do and hung up on them. The nerve of them folks! Y'all just get a grip and hang on, i aint done yet,,,heh heh,,,randyp (sorry, got bored again) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 I was in Fleetpride one day and they had a pallet of "blemished" 5" chrome 24" long stacks for $20 each. I slid one over the muffler on my D21. Better than lipstick on a pig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better than lipstick on a pig."Lipstick on a Pig". "Momma" asked me how a new lipstick looked on her once and that was my answer. You have met my wife and I'm certain can imagine how she dealt with me for that one.It was not a happy day for ole Rob I tell ya.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

Todd Moore told me to be careful because the last driver he sent in there to get a load of it came back with both stacks laying on the trailer. Thought he could get under a 12'6'' underpass.What size pipe is that? Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
