Hey ya'll!!!!!!!

[Jim Boyd]

How ya'll doing? I got a message from marK and suddenly remembered a lost part of my past Since I took the job with Orkin any and all free time went out the window. If there is one job that will withstand the downturn in the economy it is pest control. People will cancel many services but they can't stand roaches so my job is secure I am the regional "roamer" meaning I go where they are short handed for some reason or another. Currently I am driving to Beaumont every day helping with a franchise buy-back and doing alot of termite inspections.
The message from marK made me realize I need to get back in the shop and do something. He77, I have not even been in the thing since hurricane Ike to check for damage. No damage to the shop but 5 trees down on the house. Somebody is probably trying to tell me something

I was just thinking about you a couple of days ago. Kinda wondered what happened to your sorry hide! Figured maybe you ran into a roach bigger than you.

Don't make it so long to check in again.

Good to hear you're back. This is like an airport pedestrian conveyor, where it runs all the time and you can get on and off anywhere.

Glad to see you are back! I was wondering what happened to you also.

[RodKirby]

Welcome back - remember Houston

Welcome back and don't be a stranger! We can't forget ya! Sure is good to hear from you again!

You are right about the job. LOML would spend her last dime to get the roaches out.

[Uncle Cracker]

Nice to get one back once in a while... Losing folks is frustrating.

[Jim Boyd]

Thanks and nice to be back. Just went out and told the dogs "Barn". They looked at me like I was nuts till I started down to the barn. They beat me there and were waiting at the door Boy, I forgot how messy I left it. Stuff strewn everywhere. It will take a few days to straighten it up. And critical items like glues and lacquers are all dried up. No rust on the Unisaw but some of the old stanleys will need worked over again. Dang, I have alot of old planes

[gsmittle]

Welcome back Jim. And watch out for those Texas roaches. Some of them are big enough to saddle and ride!
