He wanted to sell me a Woodsmetal triggered spring alarm like on a clock. for $300. I laughed at him. He was indignant and said, "Where can you get anything better for less". I said I would put firecrackers on the window frames and sills. He shut up and went away! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Batesmotel Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 I passed the blast site on the way to work. Looks like they started secondary fires. Lots of fresh smoke. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batesmotel Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 I have to stay late after work tonight for training. A long work history and many “training” sessions has taught me one thing. I pissed someone off. Bad. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
