I was invited to go for a snowmobile tour today since the chopper ride evaporated like the alcohol in the pilot's brain cells.... like I'm on a friggin snow machine most of the day at work. I elected to stay at the office and do some serious drinking! :-D... where it's WARM!!!

A leopord can't change it's spots... but it can sure dye them a uniform brown. I understand from the posts that Bob is now an E-Bay Retailer!!!??? I hope he's all stocked up on Brody Boxes for shipping! It's a Loon Fest on that site! CM |

Hi Wally.... glad to see you're still hangin' in there! Aye, still here. :-) I was invited to go for a snowmobile tour today since the chopper ride evaporated like the alcohol in the pilot's brain cells.... like I'm on a friggin snow machine most of the day at work. I elected to stay at the office and do some serious drinking! :-D... where it's WARM!!! A bit of indoors can make a nice change on occasion. I'm looking forward to a bit of outdoors, now that I've secured a regular Sunday crewing slot in my area (club racing on a Sonata). A leopord can't change it's spots... Quite - he almost relented and had a little go at Loco, I think it was. ... but it can sure dye them a uniform brown. I understand from the posts that Bob is now an E-Bay Retailer!!!??? I hope he's all stocked up on Brody Boxes for shipping! It's a Loon Fest on that site! He is indeed - some sort of deal to do with getting rid of excess kit that's lying around various marinas, whereby he does the eBay bit and gets a percentage. Something like that, anyway. He also says he's also on course to become a daddy... -- Wally www.artbywally.com www.wally.myby.co.uk/music |

Mooron,
Glad you're surviving that bitter cold. Are you putting the air conditioning fin on the steel, as we did for the pipeline? When they told me I was heading North during pipeline construction, I told them it only was because I was Standing looking in that direction. Birch Bay, Wa. w.as as far north as they were locating me. I did get to see some of the construction problems they had with the "Perma Frost" Keep 'em warm, ole Buddy, You got a lot of year yet to use them. Ole Thom P/S I ran into a Northwesterner the other day in a restaurant. Wearing Short pants and a straw fidora, with long Johns and a hooded parker and hiking boots, Springtime in the NW |

Steel work is on the abutment bin walls and piling for the bridge placements. Massive panels that need to be manually heaved into place, spudded and bolted. Handling 5/8s bolts at -42c is an exercise in frost burn. I've got a special suit from Northern Outfiitters that handles the extreme cold quite nicely. The survey work is another matter.... waiting 4 hours by the GPS to confirm coordinates and travelling site to site to plant steel pins into rock. Sometimes you have to dig up to 2 meters of snow to get to the ground. It's a blast... and everyday is an adventure. I'm lovin' it.!! :-D When they told me I was heading North during pipeline construction, I told them it only was because I was Standing looking in that direction. Birch Bay, Wa. w.as as far north as they were locating me. I did get to see some of the construction problems they had with the "Perma Frost" Yeah.. we're on fine grained soils here.... old glacial lake bed. Lots of perma frost problems. We're using liquid nitrogen to freeze the holes below the frost lines. Keep 'em warm, ole Buddy, You got a lot of year yet to use them. You bet Thom! I'm dreaming of the day I get to go sailing again in warm weather... which by comparison will seem like blistering hot weather. Take care of yourself and keep these guys here in line and on subject! :-D CM |

"Wally" wrote in message He also says he's also on course to become a daddy... Well there goes the toys.... no more "latest & greatest gadgets" for Poppa Sprit!!! Suzanne will make certain all extra funds go to the child! Think about it.... a Baby Bobby! Whoa Nelly! I'll bet that mellows out Brody faster than anything! He'll need all the extra funds from his Dumpster Diving/E-Bay sales just to afford his Marina fees! The A/V room he so cherishes will be converted into a playroom for Lil' SweetPea Brody.... Baby proofing the pad will consume more of his cash and require his gadgets to be stored out of harm's way. Yup.... I hope Bob keeps us updated on his new comic strip... Brutus, Olive'n Sweetpea! I'm thinking of going Ice Fishing today.... I leave tomorrow morning to return to the bush! Take Care... I'll check in again when I return to Halifax. CM |

It been decided. For a boy-- Lamont Sanford Brody.. If it's a girl I guess it will be Ester.
