[ThoseBackPages]

Good afternoon all!
Rare lunch time check in.
They made me leave the office as I usually eat at my desk while getting things done.
With sequestration, I can't do that any more as all hours are closely monitored.
On the up side, I HAVE to leave at 1600 since I got there at 0700.

[AmishDave]

Howdy all. Started a new football PC. Ugh x infinity.

I know, right?!?!?!
Are you looking for anything specific at the Natty or just winging it?

How about infinity TIMES infinity? (Makes gesture as if head explodes....)
I watch too much TV.

Well we got 2 headstones set in this morning. One of them was a XXXXX. First it was too high, so we took a little dirt out, then it was too low so we put some in, and we did this about 2-3 times. That leaves us with one more to go this afternoon. What makes it even better, the maintenance supervisor left at about 8:15 this morning because "he wasn't feeling well." My guess is that that lake sounded a lot better than setting headstones

Well, every headstone we get is a different size. Some are 2-3 inches longer than others. Our genius supervisor made a gauge that is supposed to help us when it comes to the depth of the socket. Any little bump on the way out to the burial field can bump it. When we measured the sockets yesterday using his gauge, it came out just right. We had no problem with the first one this morning. But in case you can't tell, I'm not too fond of my supervisor :lol: Yesterday he broke the tow sprayer and dumped a full hopper of fertilizer in an area of 10 sq. feet. It was kinda funny to see him out there with a little electric vacuum in the grass though :lol:

Like Michael said, you're provideing a great service to the family members. That should make it easier to overlook your supervisor. That and the image of him vacuuming the grass.
Back to work, see y'all later.

As of now, pretty much only my True Gem Trout/Luck collections. But honestly the Natty isn't really the place to find them. EBay is much better.

Oh I know we are providing a great service to the family. Especially because its either a veteran or the veteran's family member out here. The other maintenance guy and I got a huge kick out of vacuuming the grass :lol:

It's in the same ballpark, FLA Dave :benson:

 

[michaelstepper]

Did he happen to be wearing shorts an open button up shirt and straw hat while vacuuming said grass? Lol

Good afternoon

I just about blew the engine on the mower last night while mowing the lawn... turns out it's completely out of oil. So, I have to go get some and fix it so I can finish mowing.

 

[tramers]

Good morning all!
Hopefully it stays sunny for the next several days so I can cut the grass before pygmy's move in and take over my yard.

We have had so much rain that boat people are planting rice

 

[MansGame]

This one...

Can you believe this guy said he doesn't collect A&G? I mean really who doesn't collect A&G????

George - he declined the Red ink....WOW.

So what's the back story here? Alex, you hit a road block with the seller/owner of this? Card is sick!! MT'ers trying to get it for you and the guy is even sticking them up? If that's the case, wow... I guess the guy isn't letting it go.
