yesterday was a good day..

[CaptainGonzo]

I caught 24 hours of OT! (the 10 hour day and 14 hour night tour):cool:

Engine 1 had only three runs for the entire 24 tour! :cool: :cool:

My new leather lid was delivered! :cool: :cool: :cool:

Maybe you should have played the lottery, too, Cap!

Details Details, I hope you went with a Cairns, really what mfg did you use and what model?

[CALFFBOU]

Gonzo- I see the good news- OT!
And the bad news- Leather helmet. (I am sorry)

As for the OT, come and work with me in Cali.
I got eight 24 hour OTs in July. Yummy. I
might just buy you a Phenix lid!

Ps- Check out his cool photo-

Cairns N5A New Yorker with Bourkes. It's more comfortable than my N6A Houston

Carved brass helmet front holder and front to be ordered tomorrow, should be "in service" in a few weeks.

I am looking at a Phenix leather lid as my next "purchase"...

What are you going to do with it? Use it as a chock block?

[Dalmatian90]

#&$(&@! Sharkie...

I'll have you know I'm now wiping my morning coffee off my computer monitor...

So, you gonna send the old one on the West Coast Lecture tour??

And, Sharkie, You got any idea how hard it is to wipe coffee out of your keyboard with those big paws?:D

[DaSharkie]

Sorry guys, I saw an open door and I just had to take the opportunity to throw a zinger in there. I do love to stir the pot ya know. I am glad I had the opportunity to give you a laugh.


As for the crud in the computer devices, look at it as a an excuse to get a nice new LCD monitor or maybe even a new computer. Take that money you might spend on a Phenix chock block and put it towards a new toy adn support our economy. :p

Actually I looked at the Phenix a few years ago and it is a great helmet, so long as it comes from the hide of cow that so gallantly gave its life for my personal protection.

Sorry Bou. Just personal opinions and likes.

Sharkie...just wanted to make sure you saw it right!:D

Love, the Gonz! :p

[DaSharkie]

Yeah, I realized it later on this afternoon, but I figured that I still made guys blow coffee all over the computer so what the heck.

You can still use it for a chock block though. It will add a sense of sophistication to an otherwise mundane job of just stopping a truck, ya know what I mean?

Gonzo.............that IS a good day ! :cool:

Dell, IBM, Apple and all computer salespeople thank you from the bottom of their hearts! :D

Why use a leather when "tactical tupperware" filled with cement will do the same job? :D:D

[DaSharkie]

Good point cap. I think Bou might differ with that take on it but that's alright.

[FFTrainer]

Cap - Unless you are a believer in the "saved the best for last" theory your criteria for a good day is slightly out of order... the receipt of the new leather lid should have been right at the top of the list :D
