That damned Tool Farie stikes again
After a Computer crash and the demise of civilization, it was learned
Gunner Asch wrote on Mon, 17 Sep 2007 02:54:52 -0700 in rec.crafts.metalworking : This sort of fast and furious meat harvesting is fairly common in the western states. Usually illegal aliens will shoot a cow out in a distant field, and have it chopped up (chainsaw), loaded and be gone before the rancher hears the echo of the shot. Errg. Not good. Tends to sour the milk of human kindness. tschus pyotr Indeed, and in some cases...earn you the S3 award Shoot, shovel and shutup. Sounds fair to me. I don't like it, but it sounds reasonable. pyotr when I say "I don't like it" that it more on the lines of "I don't like the fact that such things are necessary." In the same category as abortion, divorce and capital punishment, things there would be no need for, did we not live in an imperfect world. -- pyotr filipivich "Quemadmoeum gladuis neminem occidit, occidentis telum est.

That damned Tool Farie stikes again
When I wasnt looking, someone stuck a nasty old cast iron table with 2
drill press thngies mounted on it. in my trailer Both the table and the drill thingies say Walker-Turner or some such. Each got one of those 110vt plugs on em. And while they were at it...they also stuck in something that I dont recognize. Sorta kinda like a grinder thingy. Name plate says Harig Tool Cutter Grinder. WTF? Whats a Harig? And they put all these plastic wrapped thingies...Indexer? In there with it. There is some sort of accessory thing with an air connection sticking out of the middle of it..and something with a motor and belts. The stuff is all oily and shiney inside the plastic. Something must have leaked. And a box of wierd ashtray looking round stone things and some flat round things. But they all got holes in the middle, so they wont hold butts worth a damn. Might be pretty good RC Cola soda coasters though.... And a flat thingy with lines running across it. When I put my truck keys down on it..they stuck tighter than a pig. Had to pry em off with a rope . Would this stuff make good boat anchors? Mighty pretty though...nice shiney paint and stuff. Be a shame to dump em in the creek. Though..they might look pretty good in the front hard, with flower pots on em. I asked the guy whose shop I wuz working at about em, he claimed he never saw em before..then mumbled something about needing the space. Space is pretty big, aint it? Gunner |

Each got one of those 110vt plugs on em. That happens to you a lot, doesn't it, Gunner? Pobrecito! Would this stuff make good boat anchors? Mighty pretty though...nice shiney paint and stuff. Be a shame to dump em in the creek. What, and have the enviros all over you for harming fishies? DON'T DO IT! Speaking of that, the U.S. gov't is giving us 8 million dollars to remove the local dam. Seems the fish ladders (smooth concrete) harms fish (salmon and steelhead, specifically) who spawn upstream but who have never been damaged by swimming miles and miles over sharp rocks in 3" of water. These enviros, I swear... Though..they might look pretty good in the front hard, with flower pots on em. Let 'em rust up in your front yard like everyone else does. sigh Space is pretty big, aint it? Not at your house.

WTF? Whats a Harig? And they put all these plastic wrapped thingies...Indexer? In there with it. There is some sort of accessory thing with an air connection sticking out of the middle of it..and something with a motor and belts. The stuff is all oily and shiney inside the plastic. Something must have leaked. And a box of wierd ashtray looking round stone things and some flat round things. But they all got holes in the middle, so they wont hold butts worth a damn. Might be pretty good RC Cola soda coasters though.... And a flat thingy with lines running across it. When I put my truck keys down on it..they stuck tighter than a pig. Had to pry em off with a rope . Would this stuff make good boat anchors? Mighty pretty though...nice shiney paint and stuff. Be a shame to dump em in the creek. Though..they might look pretty good in the front hard, with flower pots on em. I asked the guy whose shop I wuz working at about em, he claimed he never saw em before..then mumbled something about needing the space. Space is pretty big, aint it? Gunner Congrats on the catch of the day! TMT I was wrong though...sigh...its not a Harig. Only the air thingy for sharpening endmills is. Its actually a KO Lee. Sigh...front yard for sure. Its people like you, whot cause unrest. pyotr -- pyotr filipivich Old farts these days - no like when I was a boy. We used to have us Real Geezers in those days. Now, they'll let anybody with a little gray hair be an old fart. |

Grayling, Mi is whopping 32 miles from me. If the company ever sends me for training in California, I'll drop you a line. Wes Since I'm only a few hours away, If you go to CA to visit Gunner, I'll go with you. We could drink all his Mountain Dew and play with his toys for a few days. I'd look forward to lessons in .45 calliber. I wonder how long it would take to be asked to leave. Sounds like fun. You could pick me up on your way past TX. GREAT IDEA!!! Let's ALL go to Gunner's for a few weeks! Throw another shrimp on the barby. |

Rubber suits are for sissies. But with you guys..Ill have to draw straws to see who gets to head shoot it...or lay out in the pasture with the 4570 and do it the indian way. Gunner |
