Hey Murph,

Some engineers did a 'stress'-study on that first truss...

So far, seems to be holding up, but we need a hobo to do a long-term study, and report back IMMEDIATELY should anything break.

You available??

:D

Hev, beautiful pics! The last one, right at sunset, really brought out the definition in those clouds!

Can't wait to be sitting on that back deck and smelling the dirt and the hay and listening to the Amish horses snorting and their harnesses creaking and slapping and their equipment clanking through those fields, while we sit there drinking beer and laughing about Jon's latest escapades!!

:D 8) :D 8) :D

Dirt,

I'll spend some time studying that action and if I come to a conclusion I will let you know.

The wife said if I didn't go with her to her moms and watch Dancing With The Stars tonight she was going to drag my balls through a mile of broken glass. So far I've managed to come up with 8 cases of empty beer bottles, and 4 boxes of mason jars. :D

How about throwing in her favorite lamp, her make-up mirror, the bottle of Bailey's, and her crystal wine glasses?

Now, there's some quality video AND something really worth getting "worked-up" about....(See Mitch, I aint always focused on the heavy stuff.....but maybe I should be more focused on such heavy stuff. It would probably be more worth my energy, right? :D )

LOL, DaZzzIIEe!!! :lol: :lol: I'm glad you didn't include wine bottles...the last few picked up at the local grocery store were in plastic bags covered with cardboard!!!!

"For some reason in our society there is an outrageous prejudice against box wine. It is often thought of as lower-class and I know many people who won’t drink it because of this. As an excuse they will say that it doesn’t taste as good as more expenisive wine-in-a-bottle, but the real reason they will not drink it is because they do not want to be associated with the lower class (these are usually the same people who will only drink bottled water). I have mentioned before how one of the wonderful miracles of nature is that wine has many health benefits. Boxed wine is less expensive and it keeps better because it prevents oxidation. I have been called a Goon Dog because of my beliefs, but I can’t imagine paying $7.99 for a 750ml bottle when you can get 5 litres of the same stuff for $12. Plus, once you are finished drinking the contents, you can use the empty sack:


Once the sack has been fully consumed, it can be inflated and used as a pillow or tied to a tree to scare away birds and small children. Country Australians have been known to use discarded ’sacks’ on statues to create a postmodern effect."

Those are the funniest posts of all time you Goon dogs! Andre, you have the best English ever.

And I'm sorry Perrine [nice video!] that I can't help as usual, but I've had to leave the running of this joint back to Bill even if he's still on his 18 week bender because I've got enough to handle here at home filming Tramp as I'm making him crawl through miles of cardboard boxes of wine for not watching licking the stars!

ps. i meant to say congratulations hev on the new home, i love to imagine you there all cozy.
