  2. Waiting for them to be operational, guess Im using this as an excuse for my self imposed "grounding" Hey George, need a water truck driver again ------------------------------------------ The Dude Abides. -
  3. Same deal here...Every so often we get one of the little bastards flying around the house. Im in a big log house, LOTS of places they can sneak in. ------------------------------------------ The Dude Abides. -
  4. After watching tonights local news I thought I'd "bump" one of the many threads on this subject..... ------------------------------------------ The Dude Abides. -
  5. Think Im a little late here...but....Ran into an old instructor of mine (back in 99) day before yesterday at "Mojave Mile", from Air Adventures West in Taft and was told George has his operation running, Skydive San Joaquin Valley, close to the base of the Grapevine (I-5). Anyone confirm this?? ------------------------------------------ The Dude Abides. -
  6. 2 on, 2 off, 2 on, 2 off, 2 on, THEN 8 off. Kern County Ca. Private ambulance (Hall) in Frazier Park (Top of the Grapevine). ALS unit. Borders LA County and Ventura County. And actually 6 off with a 12 metro Bakersfield and yesterdays 24 in Taft. OT's slow right now ------------------------------------------ The Dude Abides. -
  7. I've been on the same schedule for just over 5 years now-2 days on, 2 off, 2 on, 2 off, 2 on 8 days off. a lot of those 8 days off I do day 12 hours, night 12 hours, a 24 here and there, whatever I can pick up (OT is where the $$'s at). I work in emergency services so those 48 hour shifts are generaly nights of broken sleep, naps when I can. I found that temazepam works for me. If I need it. I do get to the bitchy stage but its generaly only for that first day off. I dont know, dont really have any suggestions....the way I look at it is My deal is absolutely voluntary so if I dont like it, I need to just get the hell out of it. Good luck. Ed *Edit to add===Im working a 24 in Taft, lets hope the dz stays safe (and sane tonight) ------------------------------------------ The Dude Abides. -

  14. My mother is from San Francisco (now lives in socal), just LOVES the Giants. I thought what the hell, she'd love to go see them when they come to town (LA). This> http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-04-02-dodgers-20110402,0,5917572.story came up when I googled to look at the schedule. Seriously, fuck you you little faggot motherfuckers Of course it wont break anyones heart that some little old lady baseball fan wont be attending a ball game at dodger stadium, fuck that!! Anyways, Im gonna just drive her to San Fran. Tough on her that way but fuck it. Ok, I needed to vent. I just went to a Kings game at Staples wearing a Sharks shirt. No problems. Some fun banter (expected) and all part of it. And of course I know that it is always a few fuckin jackasses fuck shit up, but seriously.... whew..better! Ed. ------------------------------------------ The Dude Abides. -
  15. So how they doin now? I just got tickets (YIKE$) for the 24th at Staples in LA. Havent been to an NHL game since they called the Cow Palace home. ------------------------------------------ The Dude Abides. -
  16. Yep, registered last night. Great site thanks!! As far as the lathe its a South Bend Precision Model-C 3' bed. Got it running with my Dad yesterday (he's staying at my place for a few days, out snowbirding). Seems it only needs mainly a new leather flat belt.. The drill press (forget details at the moment) needed a new power switch and power cord, replaced that yesterday. The Band saw is a Walker Turner, mainly needing a guide assembly. Havent seen my Dad light up like he did playing with this stuff in many years. I remember all this stuff in the garage and him working with it all the time (tool and dye (sp?) maker). GREAT stuff

Thanks, Ed ------------------------------------------ The Dude Abides. -
