Probably got that just in time, N'Obama will likely put an end to rednecks having fun toys such as that.

Everything down here is good, still busyer than a one armed paper hanger. I called Leon yesterday, they have been off since the 20th of Dec and just got back to work on the 6th. Should have another update in a week or three. Daughters been on house arrest for the last month on a bogus charge of being there but not doing anything wrong 25K bond, courthouse wouldn't take a check so I went to the bank and plopped cash down $25,000 in 5's 10's and 20's on the Clerks desk, she freaked out and took her and another gal 1 1/2 hrs to count it, She told me that was mean of me. Heee!. I'm taking it to a jury trail. The system sucks they just want the money so they charge you with anything noadays to get it and expect you to plead to a lesser charge and pay pay pay. The only thing I worrie about is there are 6 to 12 jurors deciding your fate for you but they aren't smart enough to get out of jury duty. Hows everything up there Ragged, Sami keeping you in line?

Well today was dog chit. Fixing frozen pipes in a rental unit, I love f'n plumbing work. It's a college student rental and the dumb f'ers left for the semester and left the windows open and chit froze up, then the copper split, then I caught it, then I thawed it out, then the f'n water starts coming out of the split pipes, go figure . Discovered the mess the day before Christmas, cut and capped the pipes in this unit so the rest of the building could still have water, now I have it re-rented so I have to fix all this chit. The problem with plumbing is if you figure you need two of everything, then go and get three, you will inevitably will need four. I'm a pretty good plumber, but if I had to do this for a living ........ I would quit and go on welfare.
On the brite side, one of my oldest and closest friends called me today and told me that on monday I will finally get the money back that I loaned him for a "few days" over a year ago. First was the 2500 to keep the bank from taking his house, then 7500 to keep the sheriff from putting him in jail for fraud. He wrote me a check to pay me back, oops! it bounced. Then he was nabbed by the Feds for bank fraud, out on 50k bail on that one. As the Feds released him on bail he was nabbed for grand larceny bad check charges by the county mounties and tossed in jail for the weekend till his sister bailed him out and bought back the bad checks. Now that he has made a deal and put that behind him his sister gets back the bail money she posted and has decided she will buy back the check he wrote to me. I guess she figures that is less dramatic than going thru the "bail his worthless arse out of jail" deal all over again. In that the local DA had agreed to nab him again for the grand larceny deal with me. Smart girl !!!
So things are looking up around here! I do spend a lot of time asking myself WTF I was thinking when I covered his arse in the first place. I guess it was his very sweet wife and four super kids that swayed me to do it for him. Live and learn, as they say. The Bank of Ragged is now closed for the duration. Odd thing here is that yesterday I get a call from an old friend in Colorado, he's broke with the cards all maxed out, wondering if I could call his car guy and put 2300 on a card to cover his transmission repairs so he could get his truck out of the shop. Of course, he would send me a check to cover it in a week or so. I'd love to help you pal, but .............. I'm tapped out, went way over board on Samantha for Christmas .
Ever feel like a CHIT MAGNET????????
Sorry to hear about the daughters deal, the old crash'em days must look pretty good about now. I would have taken them change!!!
