Well gang, sorry for not posting much the last few weeks.  Have you WIS nuts ever haD a streak of BADDDDDDD Luck???????

Well, My recent streak Is really just starting I gather, and Sad to say that; my future purchases will be very limited!mistake.gif

Recently in the past few weeks......

CASE 1: broke a finger that has been broken 4 times in 5 years. Great news however; I will not require surgery again Thank god.

CASE 2: Stabbed myself in the other hand with a #2 Robinson's  driverbit....attatched to a corded MAKITA drillmistake.gif Sucker went 1/4 inch in between my fingers while spinning at 28000 rpm. Luckily I missed the tendons and bones, but left a nice hole resembling the drill bitsubtlelaugh.gif

CASE 3: Just got the wordmistake.gif..............Now awaiting ORAL surgery to extract 8 teeth in the next week or 2. ESTIMATED COST: AT LEAST 2-ROLEX SUBS OR SD'S.  THERE GOES MY WIS FUNDS!!!!!:X:X:X

CASE 4: COUPLE HOURS AFTER TRIP TO DENTIST YESTERDAY, THE FEVER AND PAIN FROM INFECTION KICKS IN AND HEART RATE THROUGH THE ROOF AND.......BACK TO THE HOSPITAL!!!!mistake.gif THOUGHT I WAS GONNA DIE RIGHT THERE. ANYWAYS, THE GOOD OLD DOCS POKED ME FULL OF HOLES AND HOOKED ME UP TO ALL THE EEG, EKG THINGY'S AND ALL SORTS OF OTHER FUN STUFF, lOADED ME UP FULL OF DRUGS AND SENT ME ON MY WAY 12 HOURS LATER.  I'M SO STONED RIGHT NOW I DON'T KNOW 10 FROM 2subtlelaugh.gif

ANYWAYS GANG, HARD TO KILL AN OLD CAT LIKE ME I TAKE ITcat28.gifAND GLAD I'LL MAKE ER THROUGH ANOTHER FEW HERE. NOT LOOKING FORWARD TO THE SURGERY AND ESPECIALLY THE PAIN AHEAD OF ME!!!!!! BUT, THE GOOD LORD ISN'T READY FOR ME AND THE DEVIL HIMSELF DOESN'T WANT ME SO...........KEEP ON TRUCKING FOR NOW.

OH PS-subtlelaugh.gif FORGOT THE WHOLE THEORY TO THIS STORY, I WAS WIS WATCHING ALL THE DOCS AND PATIENTS AND EMT STAFF AND DENTISTS AND  THE NICEST THING I COULD SEE WAS A TISSOT T-TOUCH????????? MAN, WHERE THE HECK DO THESE GUYS SPEND ALL THEIR $$$$$DOUGH$$$$, CERTAINLY LACK TASTE IN THE WRIST CHECK DEPARTMENT!!!!!!!!

ON THE BRIGHTER SIDE OF THE TRAUMA, FINALLY GOT TO CHECK OUT AND WEAR THE BALL HYDRO'S PAST FRIDAY MORNING...............I'M DIGGING THESE PUPPIES!!!!! AND WHEN THE FUNDS ARE THERE SFTER ALL THIS MEDICAL STUFF, I THINK ME GONNA SNAG ME ONE (OR TWO)

CHEERS FROM A SORE AND GROGGY 3T WIS!!!!!!!!!

JD Tony and Watchboy are wright watches well always be there (your health is no laughing matter).  Looks like your hell of a contractor too.  Your work looks awesome.  After looking at that driveway you did, looks like you will have your watch stash cash built up in no time.

JD I just thought (cheer you up) I would give you something to laugh at in my aforemention post, but buddy I wish you all the best.

Thanks again Teddy!!!!!!!!! I managed to finish that project (with the broken finger)and will post the final pics soon.  Things a guy will do for a friend eh HAHA. I supplied all the brick as it was pulled up from another driveway, ripped out his 20 year old pavers (the red boarder bricks in the pics) ripped out his Concrete dura curb Boarder and built window wells and a small planter box with the leftover Curb, extended the driveway (excavated by hand-the good ole fashion PICK-AXE and Shovell Method, 10 tons of Gravel and Base by Hand and installed this Driveway- with tons of extras for-free (minus the extra material costs)

heres a quick pic......Will post the before and after once I get her scanned in the printer




But heres what I really Like to do!!!!!!!!!







CHEERS TEDDY and thanks for the confidence!!!!!!

Thanks PAX, Shady and WatchDAWG for your support.............

The Luck may be starting already!!!!!!!!! I was out to a local flea market today in hopes of finding something to show the gang here but......:(:(:(

HoweverBouncy.gifI was thinking about purchasing a better camera and looking hard at NIKON d40's for the the dollar value and a nice camera I hear.  Well I came across a near mint NIKON coolpix 880 with 3 memory cards, battery charger, bag and desktop tripod......... for $40.00 what an exceptional camera with all the goodies.  Much better than the fuji junker I'm using now.  This thing has many of the options the Professional models have including changable lenses, filters and such?????? I just saved myself at least 800.00 for now, and as a novice to Digital cameras and photography as a whole.............BEAUTIFUL HAHA, Cheers Guys

Wow you do some excellent workhand6.gif I remember a few years bck doing fences, decks and porches and me and a friend of mine were working on a couple of houses to make some quick sales anyway, we had this thing where we made a bet on who could finish a job quicker and better and the loser had to buy lunch, and dinner and drinks for that night, well I won several times because once he shot himself with a nail gun thru the finger and thru the hand, then he missed a couple of times and smashed his hand with his hammer it's not over yet, he then burnt his hand torching down a roof we were installing talking about bad luck and having to pay for afterwards. During that time i just told him to suck it up and stop being a baby and till this day he brings that story up to other friends.

Good luck to you and hope you feel better soon, remember work isnt done until your done.....................tired

PS that brotha on the otherside isnt ready for you yet so you still got some time to play with a few more watches................Heehehehehehehe
