I was in my back yard trying to launch a kite. I threw the kite up in the air, the wind would catch it for a few seconds, then it would come crashing back down to earth. I tried this a few more times with no success. All the while, my wife is watching from the kitchen window, muttering to...

Anyone know where I can find some Carryall-N-Haul Big Strong Tarps? Can't seem to find anyone selling them any more.

Hey all, Just looking for a beat up old saddle we can strap on a rescue dummy. If you got one that belongs in the trash but hasn't made it there yet give me a shout. Thanks! :thumbup:

Morning! Some folks here are aware of my battle with familial cardiac disease. 15 years ago today I had my first heart attack (Since then I've had 3 more that the doc's worked on and at least 1 "silent" MI) Over the past 18 months I've been able to turn quite a bit of that around, getting my...

I got the double so I could do a modified mitchell system. I've ended up using Gerry B's system so have only used one of the rollers at a time. Nice feature of the double is that depending on how my climbing hitch rides I can use either the right or the left roller to allow better feed...

You can buy just the base. We bought one this past spring. I spoke with Gregg Good and he told me to check in wtih Luke at Tree Stuff. I had also talked with Tom Hanson outta Clearwater, FL who said he could get one for us too.

Two small jobs yesterday and today. Both finished way, way under budget. Either we were working in awsome syncronicity or I over bid. And even if we were awesome machines, those jobs were priced right. Bought the guys an after action lunch and paid for thier time too. If we can keep this...

We finally got ourselves situated with the GRCS this past spring and I agree with treesmith that our cost per use is fairly steep. However, the time savings it has made on several of our jobs more than made up for it. Our first job outta the chute with it would have had to be dozens of smaller...

WE used to carry canned bacon like that into the canadian bush during our canoe trips. Damned good stuff to have when halfway across the tundra and all your fresh food is gone!

Snopes, transcripts, voice recordings and Armstrong all say, "Negative Ghostrider, the story is bull."

While hiking down along the border this morning, I saw a Muslim terrorist fall into the Rio Grande River; he was struggling to stay afloat because of all the guns and bombs he was carrying. Along with him was an illegal Mexican who was also struggling to stay afloat because of the large...
