I don't bother with such fripperies as hot dog buns. I save my carbohydrate budget on more important fare.
Fair day if I imbibe a 6 pack...

Why? I wouldn't have it any other way especially as there isn't a generic Lounge on this forum.

With Musigenesis' help on Fri and the Ginge's help on Saturday, I almost ran out of revits holes to fill. I forgot to fill the last of the 1/4" holes before packing up Saturday night. I already had everything put away when I noticed them. About a dozen total. Didn't feel like dragging everything back out. Next weekend they'll get filled.

I wish running out of rivet holes meant I was done with riveting but sadly that is not the case. I got as far as the emergency door on the driver's side. That's the 9th rib of 16 so better than half. The passenger side still has about 4 ribs left. 11 ribs plus a little here, a little there... call it 12 of 32. Three eighths to go. Damn was hoping for a third left. So close now.

That was some nasty work in mine. Wasn't rotten enough to crumble but was too wet to remain rigid and pop the nails up. Then I had to go grind down half the nails that ripped thru the plywood. Almost July FL heat. No thx.

but honestly retirement is just as tiring. Having a never ending weekend is just another way of working yourself to death and not getting paid for it.

Hey Robin, hahahahaha , you have got to be kidding...

1. You guys gotta work on your quoting.
2. Why in the hell would you want to retire from retirement?
3. There are only 2 options I can think of; work and death.
4. I'm not sure which is worse.
