Thanks for the welcome S-2. I started my day out actually trying to get some work done, but seem to now be sidetracked. I read down thru the welcomes and saw a few familiar faces I was pleasently surprised to see. No wonder Strategypage seemed to be sucking hind tit when I started reading it again last week ... all the good ones have moved over here!
I hope y'all don't mind, but I fired off an email to Mike_Golf with the link. I'm not sure it's still his current address or not ... I guess I'll just have to wait and see. By the way ... try as I may ... I just can't seem to get very fired up over Niel Young. |

Cato once threatened to punish himself for a misdeed by listening to Neil's ON THE BEACH album. That you even try is commendable and shall be rewarded in your next life, if not here! ![]() |

I'm sure I'll be cussing you (respectfully of course, sir) before long. The contractors I mentioned the other day are for a new house I'm building from the ground up. I'm already 4 weeks behind as it is!
The woodshop/place to play with motorcycles was the first thing built ... for someplace to store materials (or at least that was my story at the time). So actually, I've already done the important stuff. Now if I can just get them to finish putting in the freakin doors and windows before the floors are ruined! |

G'Day mate,
I see your reappearance on SP was just a feint designed to cover your main axis of advance - an assault on WAB. You military types are so crafty. I think you'll enjoy it here. The calibre of discussion is generally a few notches above the playground sandpit stuff that often breaks out on SP (of course, yours truly is above such things ). You'll also discover some mighty bright folks hereabouts.I feel your pain on the house issue. Had a 3 week reconstruction turn into a 7 month nightmare. Still, small beer compared with actually building a house from the ground up. Good luck |
