I did intend to run to the gun store/range and get some more 9mm rounds today... but on my way, I decided to swing by Lowe's and scope out some sales....
Well, they didn't have anything cool on sale...but I grabbed 2 little taxus.
Totally forgot to hit up the gun store....but it's OK, I have plenty ;)

Got buck on one already....might tackle the other today as well.... we'll see.

Here 'tis....#1 mini taxus...

I don't really like it....the top should not be all twisted when the rest of the trunk is basically straight....
But that's it for now.
It'll grow into its new shape eventually, and be cool some day.

Dont know what OT means hope nothing bad ...

In time it will be nice!
A man cant have enough yews!
Haha, Over Time...
I have to be On-Call 24 hours per day for 7 days at a time, every 6th week....it's the worst part of my job. Especially since most of the calls that come in on over time are at least a 1-2 hour drive from my house.

I can get enough of them either! ;)

Awesome!
Yeah, my stuff is a little more specialized, I guess you could say...
I'm always looking at Ice Machines, Walk-In Freezers and Coolers, Soft Serve Ice Cream Machines, Slushy and Frozen Drink Machines....and the smaller kitchen stuff too....reach-in coolers and freezers...
Ice machines are my favorite.
It's good work.

3 kids:eek:!
Yeah I bet!...
I am busy enough with one....for now.
There's a second one coming down the pike in a year or 2 :D

Yeah man!
Watching water freeze is when I do most of my Bnut reading!

Beer coolers....bars in general...nasty, nasty, nasty....

I can tell a clean restaurant/ bar by the smell in the lobby....and there ain't too many out there.
I like to cook at home :D

I know what you mean, the wife and I went to a restaurant for a free lunch meeting aka sales pitch, and the parking lot behind the building smells like a pile of dead bodies.

It's really sad, the level of disrepair some managers and owners will allow their restaurants to fall to.
I guess they don't have any pride in their work....must suck.

I guess my point here is if the first impression a customer gets of what they are about to eat is the aroma from the garbage they have to walk by to get in the door, I wonder how many turn are find somewhere else?

I just finished remodeling the kitchen of a very upscale hospital in Fresno. I found this about ten feet from the back door of the kitchen.
