Roy - a few years back I was involved with implementing an ISO 14001 program. Heavily involved in both the initial program and subsequent audits. Brother I KNOW your pain. Just recalling the headaches is enough for a month worth of night terrors. Good luck!

I remember the audits. It got progressively more detailed over the years.

Just won this in an auction. I love stereoscopes. Excellent for detail work or inspection.

Here you go Drew. This is shot pretty well, so you should be able to follow along. This knot will handle the stripers and speckled trout in your neighborhood.

Here is the rock and roll version of the gag.

Who痴 on First Rock Edition
Costello: So I hear you're going to have a rock festival with the some of the big groups from the 60's and 70's.
Abbott: I certainly am. Would you like to buy a ticket?
Costello: Well, depends on the bands. You got a band schedule?
Abbot: Of course I do! Guess Who's on first . . .
Costello: Who?
Abbott: Not Who. Guess Who. Who's on second.
Costello: Wait a minute. Who's on first?
Abbott: Guess Who.
Costello: Who?
Abbott: No. They're second. Guess Who's on first.
Costello: That's what I'm trying to do! Look, after the first group plays and you write them a check, who gets the money?
Abbott: No. Why should Who get the money? Guess Who gets the money!
pause
Costello: The band that's playing first. Who are they?
Abbott: No, The Band is playing third. Guess Who is playing first.
Costello: Who?
Abbott and Costello together: They're playing second!
Costello: Let me try again. The band plays, right?
Abbott: Right. Of course The Band plays.
Costello: So who is onstage?
Abbott: No. Why should Who be onstage if The Band is playing?
Costello: Who is onstage while the band is playing?
Abbott: No, Who is backstage while The Band is playing.
Costello: I'm not going if you're not going to tell me who is playing.
Abbott: You don't like them?
Costello: Who?
Abbott: Most people like them.
Costello: Can you at least tell me which group is playing LAST?
Abbott: Yes.
Costello: Who?
Abbott: No, they're second.
Costello: Who is playing last?
Abbott: No. Who is second. Yes is last.
Costello: Who?
Abbott: No, Yes.
Costello: Do you have a contract from the band that's playing last?
Abbott: I do. Yes.
Costello: So it's who?
Abbott: No. I already told you; Who is playing second.
Costello: The contract is signed by who?
Abbott: No. Why should it be signed by Who?
Costello: Who signs it then?
Abbott: No, Yes signs it.
Costello: This is nuts! Guess Who's on first, Who is on second, the Band is on third, and Yes is on fourth!
Abbott: You finally got it right!
Costello: I don't even know what I'm saying! Forget it.
Abbott: Forget it?
Costello: Right. I'm not going if you won't tell me who's playing; and if you say they're playing second, I'll sock you one!
Abbott: OK! OK! So what will you do instead of coming to the concert?
Costello: I think I'll go to Boston.
Abbott: Oh. We couldn't sign them!

Watching all those guys on You Tube tie knots got me motivated. I have hooks on the two new reels and retied the hook on another, all using the polymer knot. Don't forget to spit on it:D

64 right now...high of 82 and clear today.

Well, 2 days into the audit and 4 minors so far...not bad, actually. At least one of those minors should have been a major since it was a repeat from last year. The auditors are pretty thorough. I have no complaints about that. But I will be glad when this is over!

Good morning. No rain today, chance at last to try and eliminate some of those pesky weeds that have done so well in the moist ground.

Thanks for tips RNG. Compressed air is quite baffling at first, not so much the principles, more the huge choice of parts, with most of the quick release fittings being
incompatible with one another. Fortunately there is a very helpful air and hydraulics supplier based in the local town and they have set me up with hoses, water trap and couplings.



Drew. When you start out fishing, try and keep everything simple, it saves a lot of frustration with tangled lines. Some use rigs with multiple hooks, however you catch almost as much with a single hook.

I stopped using hooks with a barb on a long time ago. It makes them much easier to remove from the fishes' mouth, or from your clothing - or your flesh. You can also use pliers to pinch off the barb.

If you want to give your neighbours some amusement, leave the hook off completely and have a go at practicing to cast on your lawn.

Just poured first cup of coffee. 51° with mostly clear skies this morning. Heading to 78° with sunshine and low humidity. Cutting lawn is on the list today.
Good Morning All.

75 out this AM. A sprinkle came through yesterday evening right after I managed to beat down the grass around the back of the house. Today more lawn time. Working in this heat and humidity slows me down a little. A lot of water going in and out.

Have a great day all. Enjoy the weekend. Be safe.

70 heading to 87...a bit cooler than last few days. Caught a few drops from the edge of a t-storm last evening.

More mowing today. Had to cut at highest setting yesterday due to how thick and still damp the grass was from the rains.

Saw a green snake hanging from a tree yesterday - first one I've seen in years. Glad to know they are still around.

The phoebes are feeding their young constantly - fledging coming soon.

76 degrees going up to 94 today, and my second floor a/c unit quit last night. Compressor just stopped outside. Made emergency call to hvac folks and left a message. Thankfully downstairs two units still work but they are running pretty constantly in this heat, plus now the second floor is 81 degrees. Only reason to go upstairs is my office, so not going to chat long as I'm already starting to sweat. I put the circulating fan on; that helped a bit. I hope I have better luck than Wingsprd; this Trane unit is only about five years old.

I have one last little bit of trimming to do outside, will do it early, hose off the front and rear porches, and then call it quits. Leaving about 2pm to go get my friend coming in to town from PA on the train.

thanks for the video on fishing knots. I'll watch it several times. They always make it look so easy...

58F headed to low 80's today. Yesterday clouded up so much it stayed in the low 70's. Sunday is supposed to be near 90F.

The Ford has an appointment for an oil change this morning. Later today I will mount the backhoe on the tractor and get started digging out rocks in the field that stick up too high and are too big to take out with the FEL bucket. I've gotten over the whole field now with the hand rock picking and getting the surface stuff cleaned up by rooting around with the FEL bucket.

Enjoyed our day trip yesterday lots of sights and sounds to see. Great dinner in McClenonsville last night. Spelling may be wrong but old fishing village very neat. Today will be beach time

Good morning, a chilly 59F heading to 79F. Rode my bike to work for the first time today, a 4 km ride took about 12 minutes, no real traffic to deal with but this afternoon's ride home may be a different story.

78 this morning and headed to 93. Hopefully we don't see the 93. We're packing up to head back to Kentucky. Return trip will be a two day trip. But we will be making some detours. Going to take wife over to Okeechobee and then up through central Florida not back up the coast like we came down.

Dave. With all your cloudy weather how's the solar panels doing?

Drew good luck with a/c.

Used to do that when I wanted peace and quiet.
Go out to the pond, hook on a bobber and sinker, NO HOOK OR BAIT, cast it out, lean back and enjoy several beverages and not be disturbed. When someone would come along I'd say "Shush, you'll scare the fish".

Just don't reel it in when someone's looking.

58F @ 6:00AM, cooler than I've seen it in quite some time. Partly cloudy. A stray shower or thunderstorm is possible. High 82F. Winds S at 10 to 15 mph.

TGIF gang!

Good Morning. 0850, sunny, 82F with 85% humidity. Forecast high of 94F with 20% chance of thunderstorms today, and a low of 73F tonight.

I have office relief today. Got here almost an hour ago. The boss is home waiting for the Maytag Man. The time slot to expect him was All Day. I'm always happy to get extra hours. I'll read and listen to concerts on You Tube. {I have the 7-19-14 Big Head Todd and the Monsters show on now} Then parties tonight, tomorrow and Sunday.

You guys have a good one,

Larro

We're packing up to head back to Kentucky. Return trip will be a two day trip. But we will be making some detours. Going to take wife over to Okeechobee and then up through central Florida not back up the coast like we came down.

Farmer, if you stop there to eat, make sure you don't order un-sweetened tea. You don't want to get on Big Sugar's bad side;) They are scarier than the mob.
