Good morning Marshall.  I'm just waking up....................

this isn't bad for sid vicious
i didn't want to burden anyone with it so i put it here...

Very good Marshall.............I've been watching college football........the "US" version.........most of the day today with the hubby and some of his friends.........how was your evening????

Good evening, Marshall!!!!  Whatcha doin'???

the internet connection is funky...it keeps disconnecting 4 some reason...i am good...thanks 4 asking.....and you?

fine thank you. ready to grunt?

That's so cool John and Yoko lived in that same apartment.  So........how ya been doing????

truck troubles my fair lady...i have an f250 deisel and the injectors are leaking...i need to fix it today or tommorrow as the fuel consumption is double normal...and how are you?

We're fighting the aftermath of Hurricane Ike right now.............tornadoes, winds and rains all through the state.  We've been "under the gun" with warnings all afternoon, but the stuff seemed to go north and west of us.......lucky me.....

maybe you need roofers up there??i got laid off sunday....they claim there is little work....but i know there is an under current there...i was singled out and disposed of....i won't go back there...it's is sad people feel they have to lie to you when things like this happen...supposedly the owner told me i would work for him as long as he had work but i found out he doesn't run the place i guess...i will take a few days off however to rest after all i was working too hard...maybe we did all the houses that needed being done....

I suppose the downturn is going to hit you pretty hard Marshall? Do you think you'll have to travel further, maybe stay away during the week? I've got friends here who have to do this.

yeah probally as i live in the country....i was driving 50 miles just to work and then to the job...it is a shame but it seems more people do this than i wanna believe...maybe i'll write a book...or make a movie....there is a director living down the street...i may get out of roofing...

Do you do the whole roof? I mean, if you're a n experienced carpenter I suppose you could branch out? Pardon the pun!

yeah we tear it off and replace wood,facia and whatever...build crickets behind chimneys...i did carpentry b4....i will find something...i am considering changing professions for sure...

Hate to hear that Marshall.  We'll be needing a new roof next year.  Our house will be 15 years old this November and still has the very first roof on it when we built.
