    I'm pissed. One co-worked has a 2 week layoff another is off at least one week more likely two. My boss will be off a week.

    I guess me and one other coworker are the most essential of the essential.

    I have a mountain of wood to stack.

    So most know I am not a big fan of the hippy craft beer, check out the website beer advocate.com. What a bunch of prentecious d-bags, it is beer shut up and drink.

    You can enjoy all the craft beer, just don't talk about the mouth feel you get as you enjoy your beer.

    Don't forget the initial piney essence from the hops and citrus top notes to finish.

    So being one of the top roofers in OKC with 43 years in business and a stellar record.. I received 6 leads yesterday and when I went to call them, 4 were bad numbers, 1 was disconnected but the other three were realtors. Then I read the names again, Lou Grant, Rhoda Morganstern, B.J. Hunnicutt and Maxwell Klinger. We have a younger office admin that has been handling the phones, I wish she was a little older.. and I wish other roofers weren't so jealous of success.

    not really a rant...
    dropped an almond on the floor- reached down and immediately grabbed it- 3 second rule, almost popped it into my mouth when something just didn't seem right and I stopped to take a closer look...one of the dogs tracked in a perfectly-almond sized piece of poop.

    So bad news is I almost ate dog poop. Good news is I almost ate dog poop. So I got that going for me today.

    I would almost say I'm jealous that you have something intricate to do but just as sure as I say it karma will provide it.

    If you have dogs and have not cleaned your coils in forever, skip to pulling out the fridge and clean the drain tube where it meets the drop tray.

    Don't ask me how I know this.

    I found a video on youtube also; and yes that is part of this process.
    Don't let anyone tell you a Giant Schnauzer doesn't shed- one of the worst shedders I've ever had and it's super fine hair that gets everywhere. Even up in the back of a fridge.
    This process is also not as easy as they make it look; or mine is just really froze up. I've only cleared about 18" down from the drain so far.

    Mine used to pee out the freezer door on the defrost cycle. Just cleared the drain tube of ice only to have it happen again a couple months later. When I finally pulled it out to clean the back, I found a hair ball mixed with dust clogging the drain tube. And that tube is about 1/8 inch off the pan.

    Hair from another breed that supposedly doesn't shed much- lab.

    I've put the compressor to the fridge side of that drain tube before. A frozen blueberry came shooting out. Problem solved.
