Belmo Posted October 8, 2020 Report Share Posted October 8, 2020 Did you know that the expression "the whole nine yards" might come from a concrete truck? At one time, the capacity of them things was nine cubic yards, and when a job was big, the concrete guys would say to "give 'em the whole nine yards." It stuck, and spread to general usage. That's your useless fact of the day. Terri Mae does not approve this message, but screw him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not always about the killing. The communing with nature is just as good. You know it must be a penguin bound down if you hear that terrible screaming and there ain't no other birds around.

bigfish4me Posted October 8, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2020 They were just about done pouring when I left to drop the chuckleheads off.... if someone don’t climb up on that truck and divert the wires when he backs out he’s gonna take the rest of them with him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn’t get all the dental work done in time for the first date which was Monday..... I finished up the dental work and have my clearance now. I’m gonna try and schedule it for right after Halloween, the boys are 5 and I don’t wanna miss taking em out..... and it gives me some time to build up the spare parts at work since I’ll be out for 5-8 weeks. Thanks for asking. I wish you luck. Maybe you could reconsider taking the boys out for Halloween, perfect recipe for a Covid disaster, a grandfather that has heart issues taking his grandsons trick or treating to strangers houses that you have no idea of who could have it or been exposed to it. Wake up folks, this isn't gonna kill kids but it will kill older people. Doesn't this concern you at all?

I am a grandfather though, I’ve got 23 and 21 year old daughters from my first marriage. I went for my 3rd covid test yesterday.... fun stuff..... if I haven’t caught the kung flu by now from one of the 90 China men from Philly at work....I’ll take my chances trick or treating.
