Your punishment is as follows: For the next 30 days, you will wear a Michael Jackson GLITTER GLOVE wherever you go! :thumb: Just one, of course. :wave: Moonwalking is permitted. The Michael Jackson hat is optional. :mrgreen: No time off for "good" behavior! :yum: :yum: :yum: Dougster...

You ain't never gonna convince anybody or get away with a lame story like that! :rolleyes: Your hands are so dang dirty with this devious hoax played on the poor old Dougster (NTT's only official OLD MEMBER) that it's obvious to even the most casual observer!!! :thumb: All I can say is: GUILTY...

Oh please Jim... no No NO!!! :rolleyes: For better or worse, computers, cell phones and mainly the Internet replaced amateur radio as a hobby long, long ago for most folks including yours truly. I was mainly a 2-meter guy back in the old days and... like so many things I had to give up after my...

Oh, it snowed here today... and sleeted... and hailed briefly... and rained... and even some bright sunshine for a bit... but it just wasn't enough for a billable push to break the current snowplowing income drought. :rolleyes: In fact, I haven't seen this much variation in weather in a single...

... which, of course, is exactly what a tub grinder does! :thumb: Dougster :starbucks:

Well, I'll be darned. ;) And here I thought I was the oldest here by far... and I think I still am if you go by how I feel and act instead of them chronological years! :rolleyes: And obviously you are rich if you own all those expensive Kubotas... but we do have one thing in common. We are both...

My tub grinder guy is in Rhode Island near the Connecticut line. His prices are very reasonable (compared to here in MA) but the ride down there takes forever. It is all slow, congested back roads and in the wrong direction from where these potential clients are located. It is still very...

Whatever happened to being kind to your poor elderly friends. :o Dougster :starbucks:

Ha!!! :mrgreen: I guess you are right about that Mith! Last year, I tended to be very cautious and selective in taking on jobs and clients. I starved. This coming year, it will be a "no holds barred" battle against the competition, the elements, the physical risks and doubts in my mind over the...

Now there you go talking in them funny psychologist riddles again!!! ;) Either Brian is guilty or not! :rolleyes: And I say he is guilty!!! :) Crazy weather day here Jay. Nuthin' billable/plowable... but it sure is active with every form of weather in the book! :D I made snowplowing optional...

I never walk away from anything anymore. But your point is taken. We'll just have to see where this goes. Obviously not practical given the cost in this case. We did use some monster burn pit blowers down in Florida before the costly tub grinders were authorized and brought it. The burn...

Oh Lordy! :eek: NOW the whole truth should come out!!! :thumb: :bangin: :bangin: :bangin: Dougster :starbucks:

No matter how you slice it, the man from Hollywood with the Big Blue Mahindra is responsible for this... maybe wholly, maybe in part, maybe before-the-fact, maybe after-the-fact... maybe BOTH before and after the fact!!! :bangin: Clearly, at a minimum, your earliest denial was NOT the truth...

So, in other words, Brian should just admit total responsibility and get it over with! :thumb: :yum: Dougster :starbucks:

You should have seen what we used down in Florida right after Hurricane Ivan. A 454 Chevy wouldn't have even turned those crazy monsters empty. :rolleyes: I believe that in all cases, the homeowners must pull the open fire permits. Maybe Larry can confirm that for us. Well, I gotta tell you...

Amen Mrs. B! :thumb: I hear you loud and clear! ;) :wave: Dougster :starbucks:

You folks are fast convincing me of the wisdom of pressing these clients yet again for a haul-away and pay-for-disposal solution. :( The only question remains: Let these clients discover the limitations, legal/physical pitfalls and potential costs for themselves? Or try to do it all on my own...

Your motive in this devious mischief may forever remain an NTT mystery... but it might have something to do with me kidding you relentlessly about your close relationship with next door neighbor Michael Jackson!!! :yum: Duh!!! :rolleyes: Sorry... but I refuse to pin the blame on such an...

I always go to the local authorities before any new job to ascertain the local laws and their interpretation/enforcement by local police and fire authorities. The old Dougster simply cannot afford to be assessed fines and maybe even worse. :( Probably so. :cool: Is it a PTO driven model? I'm...

It is strangely reassuring to see the extent to which a good wife will go to stand by and protect her man... even when everyone knows that he is guilty as sin!!! :cool: The question is: "Does Hollywood Brian really deserve it"??? :rolleyes: Correct Jay! :thumb: I think we can cancel this...
