Haha....how true! And when you stop to ask if they want to sell it, you "Get " Oh no, I plan on finishing it someday". years later, it's still there.

Yeah, I heard that too. Heard that his "budget" went out the window real fast and he hadn't even started working on it yet..

That yard werk I skipped yesterday? Ain't gettin done today, either, not with ducks swimming in the back yard again. I shall enjoy a day in the house, might reduce the size of the old 55" projection tv so it'll fit in the garbage can. Kind of a shame to break up that glossy black cabinet it's in, but it's just taking up room. Nobody wants those old Jurassic tv's any more. Gotta do a recycle place run soon, take the electronics from it and a box of old 'puter parts, and about 50 4' fluorescent bulbs, old replaced ones tucked behind the basement furnace and the stack from replacing them with LEDs the past year. Too much stuff that just gets in the way now, I need more room for bikes in the house in the winter.

Sounds like my Tour Glide... the one that's in the garage, in the basement, on the living room wall, and in a downstairs bedroom closet. I actually did do some work on the parts this summer. Another 16 years at this rate and it should be done.

Good morning. Checking in real quick, super bust today and don't know if I'll get a chance to make it back.
