Bad Business First Day Of Work

King of Obsolete ยท 2007-04-21 14:11

well bath and treat was cancelled again last night because i was in the bush with the td-9 known as BAD BUSINESS. this is his first paying job in 3 years of ownership and he performed very well. i was driving through the bush in 3rd gear and went over a humick and the front end came down hard. i slid forward on the seat and my knees hit the dash, i banged my head on the windshield and "THE BOYS" took the trans out of 3rd gear. so "THE BOYS" were not is the mood for bath and treat last night. i learned not to drive in 3rd gear because it is too close to the seat, drive in second gear instead and it is bath and treat every night. LOL thansk

    You gotta be careful there with the boys. Looks like your snows going pretty fast. We had about four new inches yesterday but it warmed and is raining now.

    thansk, on the trailer is the walls, roof and floor for this helicopter drill. we have been dragging it around on 6 foot wide trails which works great when everything is melting away. i have to work on sunday with BAD BUSINESS moving the drill to the next hole. so "THE BOYS" will be rested up by then. thansk

    That southern belle's a good woman.:notworthy Looks like bath time for Bad Bidness wasn't too much fun, but obviously turned out O.K. I have a question: Why for don't you have a full cab of some style fabricated to keep old man winter's miserable bite away? I'd have one with a Jeep auxilary heater tied into the coolant lines or something, so I would rather be inside of Bad Bidness than anyplace on earth on those exceptionally nippy days in the Kingdom.:my2c Thanx.
