How's it going, Snippy?

Much better today. Still foggy. Some days we get plenty accomplished, other days seem slow. All in all we still are targeting sometime between Thanksgiving and December 1st to open our little shop.

Just finished reading. I've got tears in my eyes. Kudos to you all. A wonderful, superlative job of telling a magnificent story. As one who has long been an avid student of the US submarine campaign in WW II in the Pacific, without in anyway detracting from the heroic exploits of all the boats, the person who perhaps deserves the most credit, and who receives the least recognition, is Charlie Lockwood.... He was, fortunately for us, the right man at the right place at the right time..and amazingly, CinCPAC had the good commo sense to , for the most part, leave him alone for much of WW II..

Unlike Sam, I've read the instructions. LOL.

We mix 2 parts to 1 part of the epoxies and pour it over the river rock (pebble size), mix and then spread out with a trowell a 1/2 inch thick into our area of coverage.

It's going over a flat cured and hardened concrete floor. :-)

I wish I had one BIG cup that would hold all 3 pots. :-)

Snippy's got a picture of you standing next to that cup.

Howdy.

The electricians are in bright and early this morning, the plumber too! We notice one of the sprinkler heads leaking a little. Grrrr. Of course the plumber is not doing the sprinklers, that's another person to wait on!

The number of trades is bewildering, isn't it.

Last spring I was mad about the what looked like a botched Fallujah operation. Looks now like excellent strategy.

It made the worst types flock there, and gave those worth saving a chance to contemplate "Islamic" government. The bloodthirsty fools killed everybody who looked at them funny. Now it will be their fault, not ours, that the town is gone.

I will bet you a nickel that that decision was made by George W. Bush. Underestimate him at your dire peril.

This business is going to get rough. Been "tiptoe through the tulips" so far, because in any war the real enemy is always the "liberals". Remember that Fallujah, after those that want out leave, is filled with folks who would fly a hijacked airliner into pretty much anything that struck their fancy, that have tried to weaponize anthrax to put in shopping malls. Every bit as important to me is that Fallujah is full of Saddam Hussein diehards. Me, I remember the Stark.

That first lad, the one with the legs gone, bled out trying to close the valve. The second guy figured the first guy wouldn't be able to get the job done. The second guy closed the valve putting his hands over the dead hands of the first. The second fellow got out of the hot compartment OK, but of course died of his wounds a few hours later. The skin is a vital organ. Burn it off, there is nothing that can help but morphine.

Rest in peace, lads.
