Tore the carb off in the windy ass weather and found a chunk of the rubber fuel line that had deteriorated stuck in the seat. I've got a million big branchs' and trees down in the yard. Dougs yard looks like a hurricane went through. Got in a good pissing match with a truck load of hood-rats at the only gas station that was open. They bought some scratch-off Lotto tickets and thought it was a good idea to sit in front of the pump and scratch them off, with cars backed up into both roads at the corner. Of all the cars and trucks sitting there waiting on the fat-assed fools to move on, I'm the only one that said anything to them. I hate people. Merry Christmas.

PS...in my best soup-nazi voice......NO CHAINSAW FOR YOU !!!!!!!!!!!

Well that sucks. I have a gen you can use and since it sounds like Ric is all set if you need any help or anything else you have my number. My generator is 30 amp connector plus 4 110v, 5500 watts continuous. If it will keep you from hauling one around it's your's to use.

We never did lose power here. Lights flickered Sunday morning while we were cooking up some pancakes and bacon. I was thinking great, just when this stuff is half done but it didn't go out.
