Then I'll do my best to work myself to death today... :)

Go ahead, knock yourself out...I was nearly killed by a rockbreaker that "accidentally" disconnected from the hitch today. Operator sticks his head out of the cab and says "I wondered what that switch was?":dizzy :Banghead

Ahh yes, the optional "KSS" (Kill Squizzy Switch):bouncegri

I see we have a new Blue Box on top of the scene now too, which links us to our new sponsor(?) affiliate(?)partner(?):thumbsup

I had a look at it today..typical hire machine with everything broken and hotwired. The operator wasn't to know, the switch was not identified at all...but its alright...the hydraulic hoses broke its fall:mad:

After I have finished with the machine and paid the bill I will make a polite phone call to those people who are supposed to look at these machines from time to time. In the mean time we decided to call the machine "Egor". Its a 32,000 lb wheeled excavator and moves around something shocking with the breaker. The operator looks like he's a permanent AC/DC fan.

BTW Who is mailing out my copy of CE when we hit the big time???:rolleyes:

I just have this feeling that there must have been a gross miscalculation somewhere. Once they really read just what's been going on here, rather than doubling HEF's membership it'll actually have the effect of cutting CE's readership in half.:eek:

But don't dispair elderly Squizzy unit, once the American Journal of Medicine decides to do a series of articles on "The retardation effect of industry induced stress on written human interaction" then we'll be golden, baby:thumbsup

I signed up for the magazine online but haven't seen it in the mailbox yet.
Anyone else?

It takes a little while before you see the first one.


I read through the October issue and didn't see anything. Maybe I didn't look close enough:beatsme

I'm sorry but now that I've written proof that you said it, I'm going to hold you too it.

In the spirit of compromise I'll let you take back the "No more horrible e-mails to digger", but then that's it.:wink2

Are we talking about Construction Equipment Guide, or something different ?
