All Righty ... What's on the bench today?

All Righty ... What are you doing today ?

SA Dave: Suck doodoo and die!

WInd chill is above 0 and we have taken off our sweatshirts... It is a Cleveland thing.... We are in for a very long and rough

The Union has the Canada Geese out on strike for better conditions... and spring has already called in sick...

Well it's 26 degrees C in our house with the wood stove in full power ;)

They were going to finish my front porch re-build, but they claim that the weather this AM (-8° windchill) was too severe. Wimps

I remember several years ago when I was doing construction. We had to call it quits for the day due to it being -30° outside. We were trying to side a house. But the moisture in the air compressor lines was freezing by the time it went from the compressor inside to where we were working outside. That and the Hardee Plank siding was shattering from being so cold.

I'd be wimping out with them.

Ryan I loaded bombs in that temp, the bomb lift trailers had heaters on the hydraulic system to keep the fluid from freezing. Pressure valve popped on one, fluid went squirtin' about 50 ft from the trailer. I went out to look where it was landing and it was bouncing...little balls of hydraulic fluid. :blink :blink Baby that's cold!

Plattsburgh Winter 76 - 77, It was -63° w/o windchill the week before I got there...

Nothing exciting like bouncing hydro fluid... just lots of frozen body parts... They kept the temp at 85° in the barracks to keep us warm. If they set it at 68° IAW USAF regs, the temp remained a nippy 50° in the rooms.

I always wondered why the IG, CAFI and other inspectors were never seen between Oct 15 and May 15? :coolio

Well at present I am in central Japan. I went to the hobby shop I normally got to and got some goodies that i will post when I get back. I have some nice photos of the Golden temple i went to in Kyoto on Saturday but I dont know how to upload to MA so I will post when I get back.
Here all week - last night had an earth tremor that rocked the Hotel room while I was lying on the bed. Glad I was lying down as it would have made me fall over!
Talk again soon.

You talking about uploading from mobile Ian? If so that's a nut I haven't cracked yet, I'm finding a need for it myself so I'll start check things out.

Saw the news about the quake, hope everyone is ok! Be careful!

Well there's a surprise !! - Got a call from my oppo this morning,

"No need to come-in, light day, the truck can do it all.... 'sorry if this messes-up your day !!"

So here's an unexpected day-off, apart from a quick trip in to town to get my license endorsed for transporting 'dangerous goods', I have a day to get back to the bench... Now where's that Catalina :idonno

We have a plant right there at JohorBahra, who doesn't? :rotf When I first came on they made me get my passport to go there to deploy 10, yes only 10 PCs. I knew there had to be a better way so I developed a DVD with all our software and scripts that would add them to our domain and shipped that to them instead. Saved me that 18 hour flight, just do deploy 10 pcs...smh..

Travel safe Ian. :pilot
 
All Righty ... What are you doing today ?

Ah, young Jedi! I though we taught you better than that!

Why else did you enlist? World travel! Exotic places! Unusual food! Model kits you cannot buy in America!!!


What is an 18 hour flight compared to the wonders of the world?


Why I used to do that just so people could shot at me!

Never said I was sane!
 
All Righty ... What are you doing today ?

HA, Barney after seeing the world of Grand Forks North Dakotoa I had my fill. I'm doin' just fine with my fat butt parked here in the sticks of SC. :eek:hyeah
