Congrats, let the worries begin. I just hit 5 years with my company last month, guess I am doing something right.
 
Ya see some unique things out on the job. In my short career, I have saw some unique things, met some interesting people. There's always something that leaves you speechless tho.

Well, Friday I was doing service calls. My last call before the long weekend here (Natal Day in Nova Scotia) I respond to a no water call.

The customers driveway is a good 400 feet long, and the second I pulled onto it, something just wasn't right.

I sat in my van, in tears laughing so hard when I realized that the driveway, I kid you not, was 400 feet of carpet. The homeowner seriously scrounged up 400 feet of carpet scraps and covered the entire length and width from the road to the house.

So after I gained my composure....I pull up to the house to find him sitting on a couch in the yard, on the carpet, watching tv out of the back of a Ford Aerostar van. I could hardly contain myself when he put his beer down and the first words out of his mouth are "ya like my driveway son?!"
 
FROM THE LIARS BENCH

Snowed today. It was a fairly good storm and I wasn't planning on doing anything so I had a drink or 3 waiting for the power to go out. I decided to go blow the driveway and about half way done a bunch of snow machines show up. I immediately pulled the bottle out of my skidoo suit and passed it around and they passed around what they were drinking. An hour or more later and lots of likker down range one guy decides to go for a spin. It's an old Olympic, probably a 70-73 or so that the hood clips on etc. Anyway, he squeezes the throttle, gives it a pull and it fires and is gone! It's maybe a 300cc or so maybe 340 at biggest, but damn can that thing climb! It went up the road and across the ditch at a 45, jumping up the other side and climbing the steps to a neighbors house crashing into the door and knocking it open. Luckily it veered off and didn't go in, it just kept going, between the front of the pickup and over his snow bank into the next neighbors yard, across his lawn, through the ditch and off the side of a car parked on my side of the road. By this time the boys fired their sleds and were after it, (I took another drink..I couldn't chase with a blower now could I?) and watched them go up the road screaming after this thing. Last I saw it was back on the far side of the road, climbed the steps and busted through the gate of the guys pool beside his house then blew out the other end of the pool fence. It dropped maybe 6ft and went screaming out of sight. About 10 minutes later there was 4 cop cars, 2 fire trucks and an ambulance in the road in 3ft of snow. Cop asked me if I knew what happened so I said "I saw some guys chasing a kid, looks like the kid stole the sled I guess". He said my eyes were glassy, was I drinking? I said his eyes looked glazed, was he eating donuts? The wife looked out the front window as I was being stuck in the back of the cop car, ran to the front door and yelled "don't bring him back this time" Women, can't live with 'em, can't sell 'em for parts...course if you could, and it was by the pound
I'd ...anyway..Cops in the front seat reading me the riot act, after 5 minutes of writing and telling me all this stuff about public intoxication I said I'm not drunk I was just blowing my driveway and my face is froze, that's why it's red. He turned and looked at me and said your red face is only the beginning. Well that was enough, I started yelling racism and screaming I'm being held because I'm a native (I'm not, I'm whiter than Martha stewart....why the hell did I go there?...anyway, I'm screaming, he's screaming and a female paramedic comes over to the car and knocks on the cops window. I notice she's native....he, he, he....he's stammering, I'm screaming and now she's upset and writing notes. The other cop pulls open the door and drags me out, telling me to go in the house. I got by my door and start yelling it's a cover up! The cop's a racist and it's being covered up! Just then a snowmobile comes tearing down the road, sees the cops/firetruck/ambulance and slides around and takes off. It looked like a benny hill show, snowmobile and everything else up my road, across the subdivision and back around the loop and out the other end, sirens blaring and lights flashing, just needed the music. I pulled out the bottle and finished he last big pull and tried the door...locked. So I went to the garage where the aging takes place and got another bottle. I was fairly well into that bottle when I realized the back door on the house is never locked. Went in and she said she's going to bed. (at 8:32!?) I put a show on and fell asleep, just woke up, it's 12:22 and I got a text from my buddy saying they caught the sled about 6 miles from my place on the far side of the 4 lane jammed between two trees, track still spinning. They couldn't even follow where it went, jumping ditches, through back yards and front lawns, through alderbushes, across four lanes of traffic...old steel chassis thing is a tank!

And how was your day today?
 
thinking about opening a mom/pop store

over here is a 300 lot camp ground that is expanding by 1000 spots.

every one of the spots will have a 4 wheeler or 2 and need gas/oil and snacky snacks

my family owns the land right at the entrance,

thinking of a 1 pump ethanol free small store that carries ju-jus and wam wams, snacky snacks

lookin into the pump and tank, looks like a 15-20 k investment

good spot, the 4 wheelers that are not allowed on the road can drive up to fill up

dry county...thats a joke, their is more beer drank on that river than an 18 wheeler could haul every weekend

but the county is dry

funny law, [wet county] you can not buy a single beer on sunday, but you can buy a 6 pack.

in a dry county, its against the law to transport it , but it is ok to drink it on your property

Ok my American friends.....you done went and upset the Canadian

Please, put this Donald Trump foolishness to rest. Just tell him no and make him go away.

Last night was hockey playoffs. Instead of coming up with a game plan and pep talk.....all anyone wanted to talk about was stupid old Trump. Got us off our game and thus, we were eliminated. Now no hockey for a few weeks. :mad:
 
Blame the media and all who are making it the up roar. He is winning because of votes. Obviously the majority wants him or they would vote differently. They make it hard because his party doesn't want him.
 
Who else we gunna root for? Pre-convicted Hillary? Socialist Bernie? Ya give us crap to pick from, so guess what, crap will become prezzydent.
