Okay, I can take a hint, I'll chat about weather because its about 50 degrees here in Maine, which kind of changes things around from the 40 degrees you Southerns are getting. It's also kind of funny too that in Girdwood Alaska where my sister lives, the jet-stream makes for a rather warm winter. As a rule it is warmer there then it is here in Maine.

That's alright, I knew when I bought my new snowmobile we wouldn't get any snow. That's just how it works. Murphys Law.

Hey - Can we get back "on topic" here ?  :)   Last year or the one before ? Didn't 1/2" CDX go to about 30.00 a sheet?  It was blamed on the hurricanes, rebuilding Iraq, and the Chinese economy?  Is it still 30.00 ?  Just wondering...........

In one way it is the governments role to do things we cannot do

Wonder if this is why we see so much corruption in govt?

Gee, I wonder if I need to change my prices for the burl I want to sell.  I just place an add in the For Sale section yesterday.  Ther have been about 70 lookers but no takers.  I must be gouging.  I best had lower my prices?   Then, I would be accused of undercutting the competition and be in just a much trouble?   :'(

I checked prices on 2x4 studs 3 months ago and they where like 1.65 a piece, yesterday at lowes (same place) they where 2.65 each.

I just ate a sausage egg and cheese sandwhich on homemade rye bread. 4 pieces of sausage, 3 slices of cheese  and of course the bread. THe bread is sticking to the back of my front teeth.........

Thats actually not a bad idea, if you have stuff like that and its not moving can't you throw it on the for sale section?

I just added a photo to Franks ad. I think they are outstanding and I hope the photo helps move some of them. I think they are works of art.

I kinda wish it'd cool off some here.  I need it to get down below forty degrees for a few days or so I can kill that ole bull that's been pigging out on corn before I butcher em and hang em up to age some so i can cut it up into steaks and grind em  up into hamburger. Getting hungry for me a big ole t-bone or rib eye just thinking about it.

Thinking if I lived where Chet lived I wouldn't even need a extra freezer on my back porch to keep em in.   Maybe just build me a wood box  and let the meat stay froze all by itself.    Thinking I wouldn't use S4S boards to build my freezer box out of though!  :)

Oh Frank, them's some REAL nice burls.  If it was me i wouldn't blame you for selling em for as much as you could get for em!   8) 8) 8)

Back when all da kids were home we used to raise a big garden, and shot lots of venison. Plus buy a half of beef and at least 1 pig. We had 3 large freezers in the garage that never turned all winter.   :)  In fact 1 didn't work at all, we just made sure to empty that one first.   ;D

Chet,

Are you sure you are supposed to live that far north  ???

We figure the only frozen water we want to see is in our drinks.  :D

So, how did I end up here anyway?
