Yep!, I've seen you guys up there many times. Just before I retired the EPA made them extend all the stacks...had helicopters and the whole bit going on up there.

Hey Reubent,

The thing about PJ Harvey is it was new at the time & I didn't realize she went back that far. I take it you don't get her music? I only get some of it :-}

I would go as far as saying most radio is putrid redundancy & in fact I drove the last 550 or so miles of a road trip last week w/o listening to it.

I guess I'm required to chime in on this thread having been an electrician for ever (23 years) and counting. I don't complain though, the trades pay for a nice house in the Santa Cruz mountains, plus all my toy's.

In my spare time I've been remodeling which has put me in touch with almost every trade. I haven't had to do any roofing yet, but today I was mixing and pouring concrete for my new fireplace hearth. Next week I'll be cutting marbel, and re-facing the fireplace. Then the Pergo floors are going in 900sqft.

I've got to pick up the pace a little since this is my listening room we're talking about. I'm without my main system until I get it all done :^(

Driver,

Correct, I don't get PJ Harvey's music. Painful!!

About this thread: I have two different color collars that I wear depending on the day. I'm a manager for one of the big computer companies and I have a group of field service engineers that report to me. I'm also a licensed Realtor and help my wife when she has too many clients. I manage several rental properties that we own and I do a lot of repairs on those properties and maintain the lawns.

My favorite one of those jobs is actually the lawn care! Kind of a brainless activity that nets instant gratification!

Enjoy,
