So sad. We can't help the elderly but can help all these lowlifes than can work as good or better than I can!
How's your day been?

Yeah, and then they want to give ILLEGAL ALIENS health care coverage, while penalizing Americans for not having any.
The entire health care system is absurd at this point. No disrespect to the doctors among us, I realize you guys are not the problem, but the system is seriously F---ed UP. Niece and her old man are expecting their second child. Have excellent insurance, he's in the medical field, harvests organs for transplant, just completed his masters in Hospital Administration. She was a manager at LensCrafters until recently hanging it up to be a full time mom. Although I think she still has some nature of job with them that she does from home.
With their insurance, which damn sure isn't the cheap variety, I think he said they're paying close to $1500 a month for the 2 of them, they will pay $14,000 in deductibles and co-pays to have this child. AFTER paying $18,000 a year for insurance.
But, the retard working for me, who won't show up for work on time, makes 25 - 30 hours a week religiously, is uninsured because he can't afford insurance, although he's driving a newer vehicle than the 2 college grads with high dollar jobs, is also expecting his second child, with second mother, and the government will pick up 90% or more of the tab for their delivery.
And, that is somehow supposed to be equitable and fair???

Yeah, Eric, my friend, get this. We have to pay over $1600 a month health insurance and jump thru hoops to get our meds thru pain management these days.
Yet, in B'more, they hand out opioids to junkies like it's candy every day for free. Which my hard earned tax dollars pays for.
They do nothing, except steal, rob, and kill people because they don't get enough dope. There was a cop that was just killed there recently because he tried to keep a junkie from robbing a Dr. working there.
And they get their dope for free.
Can someone please explain that to me so I can understand it?

Well on a better note, the weather was beautiful here today, low humidity and a nice breeze and in the low 80s. So Betty and I loaded up the cruisers and headed to a local metro park on lake saint clair. Absolutely beautiful day to be riding bikes by the water.
Yea, we see it all the time.
Great weekend. While wife is with daughter in law about to have her first, and our first grandchild, I continued to clean up our 5 acres. Limbing up trees and mowing.
Well, started yesterday at 11:30 a.m., got home at 8:30 this morning and went back out at 1:00 and just got home. Another officer and I got a good one off the street. Got a bunch of meth, dope, pills, other drugs, illegal guns, other illegal weapons, money and some other stuff. Then had to process everything. I'm tired and going to bed. Got tracking team training tomorrows.
You supposed to be chasin possum poachers, not pill pushers!
Went fishin today. I Caught a big ol pike using a mepps #4.
Looks like fresh fish for dinner 
Looks like bait! 
Just found this and although not in budget I think I need to jump in it for a $1000. Including all incra fence stuff
Boy I hope someone is being lazy this morning and sees this

Well, talked to my Woodcraft friend, went back and looked again and am passing. I bet the saw is great, but actually too much of the fence is gone once I was given a clue. Bummer, no rails and such, no miter gauge, etc.
Oh well, wasn’t ready to spend that money anyway. He also has a Powermatic shaper, model 27. But that certainly isn’t on the list right now.......
Boy, do I ever get excited about things like this.......and I usually buy too quickly.

Miter gauge is a matter of how much you want to spend at Incra. Couple hundred bucks will get you a really nice miter gauge. Can't imagine the fence rails being real expensive. The saw is worth that without the accessories. Might be able to talk Incra out of a set of rails for a reasonable price. Can't ever tell...

I had a 66 and it is an awesome saw.

House on the next block over from me had a garage sale, same address as my house, lol. I saw a kennedy top tool box in the driveway so I skidded to a stop to check it out.
Scored the box for $25.00
This box will sit on top of another kennedy tool box in my metal shop.
This model sells new for between 4 and 500 dollars.
And I scored a whole tub of klingspor sand paper for $20.00

Nice grabs Greg!
Back on June 4th, I wrote about my lawn tractor catching on fire.
My wife froze up, etc. I had to wait until today (almost 3 months later) for the weather to be decent enough for me to work on it.
I cleaned out a bunch of dried grass that was packed up under there, and fired the old girl up.
It didn't want to start because it's been sitting so long, but it did start on the first try.
Nothing major was damaged under there. Some paint burned off the mower deck, but the belts & other stuff was still fine.
I was mildly surprized, and very glad it turned out to be OK after all.

Ice afternoon NOT sitting on my tail after work. Oil changed in bike and ready for an anniversary trip next week. I am very lucky to have a lift, nice not to have to get on concrete for jobs like this.
