Live and learn. [thumbsup]

Yeah exactly. It all looked good when I ran it all through the gearing calc but experience trumps everything

What did the tranny come out of?

Live and learn. I already have the next one planned in my head and it will be bonkers.

I'm angry.  At least I think that's what I am.  My older sister walked into a hospital for life improving (although she was already not so hindered, just something that probably might be best) routine heart surgery... has now been there for 6 weeks for what was gonna be maybe a 2 night stay.... and will go home needing full time care, can't walk without assistance.... and has been told she has weeks or at best months to live.

I wanna kick doors down.  I wanna know who make the beast with two backsed up.  But when I do that, when I learn the answers... it won't change the outcome.  So.... well..... make the beast with two backs  :'(   >:(

Not my fault, but I'm sorry for the result.

Not exactly excited about the results of my recent surgery.

I spent about a half hour tonight on the phone with dhhs. Talk about maddening.

I'm afraid to ask. Please tell me something didn't happen to the dog.

I should have been more descriptive.

We dropped Rowdy off at the trainer for 'steadiness training' yesterday.

He's a hunting dog, and he's make the beast with two backsing awesome at hunting...he hunts everything. Unfortunately he's a little bit too exuberant, and makes birds fly away. This round of training is to teach him to ...stop. Just keep pointing.

The other side of the coin is he's T's couch buddy, and he makes me laugh. He's about as whacked as a dog could be, and I love it.

So the house seems empty without him here.
