Shipments on way from Montreal. These models are costly here...a

plus HST and a PDI and freight charge of $75.00. Outrageous...first
that crap started with cars and then new boats. Now on generators??

By the way it was just below 45 degrees F inside our house this morning.
No country for girliemen Jack Goff.

Bundle up real good. Have you put a deposit on a genset yet?
Better yet prepay for one and go to the head of the line. How is
your house heated? Please don't say elec. Have you protected your
pipes from freezing? How about your heating system? Watch out for
spoiled food in your freezer and fridge. Hopefully you are
keeping your dog warm.
Good luck, buddy.

Oops..meant to say we were back on power when I sent that message.
Just work up from a snooze on the reclining chair...all this heat is getting to me.
We actually lost power early in the storm at 1505hrs on Thursday
afternoon. Power company arrived quick enough..but only to secure the
wire knocked down by a large tree branch a few hundred feet up the
street. It took a full 24 hours for the city crew to show up to cut
the big hanging tree limb down and then 3 power company trucks show up
at 0720hrs this morning. Took them about 4 hours to fix whatever had
to be fixed in very cold windy weather. I'm still waiting to see how
our tropical fish fare. Spring Spaniel great but we put ont one of
his jackets this morning. It was getting real cold inside and out. We
do have electric baseboard heating. Thought it was a good clean,
relatively cheap conversion from the former oil furnace (converted
from coal in 1959) that only send warm air upwards through a floor
grate in our entrance hallway. House built during WW2 and guy who
owned it was tight with a dollar.
Anyway, all is good now but after losing power to a fallen limb and
then Hurricane Juan back in 2003 and then this weeks storm, if may be
time to prepare better....especially since winds keep getting
stronger. (there's your Global Warming at work).
As far as the generator, I want something that is easilt transported.
The ones left at the dealership were big and expensive..and heavy.
One 2800w model roughly the same price as the 2000I weighed almost
twice as much. Can't rely on the wife to carry her end on something like that anymore.
"work up"?
"we put ont one..."?
"easilt"?

Nice job, spelling cop.
Hands and brain were still partially frozen...what's your excuse?

Alex is a snarky little dip****.

Not really. Payback is tough. Eh?

Those two idiots will never get it.

Not to be mean, but it is a fact that one reaps what one sows. Maybe if you stopped being so quick
to jump, you would be jumped on so quickly.

Explain yourself!
