    This morning the national weather map had it snowing in the BB area.:baldy

    I've got the boat sitting on a trailer out here. This snow and cold have me thinking about going back to work on it and spending next Winter someplace warm!

    Eddie, how about you get it running and I'll let you borrow it so you can do both of our driveways? :thumb


    My son's got a Pathfinder and it worked great in the snow until he moved to LA. :evil

    Man, if I had one of those I could do all of Brookside (except for suicide hill, of course). :lol3


    I can't figure out what the battery being dead has to do with his wheels not working. But at least it still works better than mine.

    I'm going to have to listen to those at home where I have some speakers hooked up. I'm not getting the full effect at work.

    Sounds like a 2 stroke. They tend to be cold blooded. :dunno

    I haven't even had one stroke yet, :evil but I might if the next storm lays down as much wet snow. Damn that stuff is HEAVY!

    I just dug out the One Ton Dually. Drove to work then drove back and forth over the parking lot. Stayed nice and warm in the cab. :lol3

    That said, I do wish I had a snow blower at work.

    Happy New Year's you FF's.

    I thought that within one/two years I'd have something orange, but Lisa and I have found our new home possibly in Butler. It is 10 miles out of the town, 10 acres, 3300+ sq ft, full kitchen/bar in basement, massive garage.... did I say 10 acres? Room for shooting range and motorcross track... :dunno

    Considering that 90% of our client base is south of here it only makes sense. We commute 100 miles/day if we take one car. If we have to take two... double it. That gets expensive and spending two hours/day in a car just to get to/from work gets old. We've grown alot this year. 140 new clients.

    God bless, good luck, and don't do anything you wouldn't do in front of your mother.

    Sounds nice! Can I ask what you guys do? (if you don't want to answer that's cool)

    We're both insurance agents and currently (for the past 4/5 years) specialize in the senior market. We take very good care of our clients and get tons of word-of-mouth referrals. Most of our new clients were from that source.
