| cmaloney | Lockharts is not in Lake Orion. ;) | 00:40 |
|---|---|---|
| jrwren | no? | 01:15 |
| cmaloney | that's in Royal Oak | 01:20 |
| cmaloney | snow day | 14:30 |
| cmaloney | also: good morning | 14:30 |
| jrwren | snow day indeed. | 14:30 |
| jrwren | good morning | 14:30 |
| wolfger | isn't every day a snow day for you, cmaloney ? | 14:32 |
| cmaloney | right now it is, but having JoDee here is a + | 14:33 |
| cmaloney | Having to go out and snow blow the driveway is not a huge plus though | 14:59 |

| cmaloney | well, I made it a whole season last year without winding the extension cable into the snow blower | 16:25 |
| cmaloney | this season, notsomuch | 16:26 |
| rick_h | oops | 16:33 |
| rick_h | my wife did that last year, blew up the blades on the blower | 16:33 |
| rick_h | took a few weeks and replacement parts...sucks | 16:33 |
| rick_h | cmaloney: hope it came through just needing some untangling | 16:34 |
| _stink_ | i bought a snowblower, used it for one season. forgot to empty the gas tank after the season. now it only runs on choke. instead of having it cleaned up... it has collected dust for 4 years and i just shovel. | 16:40 |
| jrwren | lol. | 16:40 |
| _stink_ | every fall i hear 'hey you should get the snowblower working' | 16:40 |
| jrwren | that sounds like something I would do. | 16:40 |
| _stink_ | every winter i hear 'you should have gotten the snowblower working' | 16:40 |
| jrwren | all you gotta do is give it fresh gas, yeah? | 16:40 |
| _stink_ | i have tried fresh gas plus gas goo additive | 16:41 |
| _stink_ | still no go | 16:41 |
| jrwren | oh, weird. | 16:41 |
| jrwren | small engine repair is not something I enjoy. I know some people actually like it. | 16:41 |
| _stink_ | i would like to learn it for sure | 16:41 |
| _stink_ | but you know... it's pretty far down the list | 16:42 |
| rick_h | yea, would be handy | 16:43 |
| jrwren | i've intentionally avoided owning any small engines, so I've not needed to repair them ;) | 16:45 |
| rick_h | one way | 16:47 |
| rick_h | my wife didn't find getting handed the snow shovels while I was having summer across the world appealing though. | 16:47 |
| rick_h | with the lawn service though, all engines are put away in storage other than the snow blower one yay | 16:48 |
| jrwren | ha! nice! | 16:48 |
| jrwren | i miss lawn service :( | 16:48 |
| jrwren | but when the lawn service weed whacked our herb garden... i knew we were done with lawn service. | 16:49 |
| wolfger | You should have the blower repaired or replaced. Then it will refuse to snow much that season, and the rest of us will thank you for it. | 17:04 |
| wolfger | The year I bought my blower was the least-snowy year in memory. | 17:04 |
| cmaloney | rick_h: Unfortunately the shielding tore, so it's ruined | 17:17 |
| rick_h | cmaloney: ouch | 17:17 |
| cmaloney | Amazon is bringing me another one. :) | 17:17 |
| rick_h | cmaloney: the cable or the blower? | 17:18 |
| cmaloney | Extension cord | 17:18 |
| rick_h | ah ok, yea that's easier to deal with for sure | 17:18 |
| cmaloney | Yeah | 17:18 |
| _stink_ | wolfger++ | 17:21 |
| cmaloney | Yeah, John (my old boss) bought a hefty snow blower one year | 17:22 |
| cmaloney | that was they year we had the mildest winter | 17:22 |
| jrwren | in fact, _stink_ you are now the reason we have had so much snow the last 4 yrs. | 17:23 |
| jrwren | _stink_: I blame you for not fixing your snow blower. | 17:23 |
| _stink_ | really sorry guys | 17:23 |
| wolfger | ^ +1 | 17:23 |
| cmaloney | ++ | 17:23 |
| _stink_ | at least your kids like it! | 17:23 |
| _stink_ | i did it for them. | 17:23 |
| jrwren | that is true. She is sledding right now. | 17:24 |
| _stink_ | mine have already been out and back in | 17:24 |
| cmaloney | likely story | 17:24 |
| jrwren | my tailbone still hurts just thinking about it. | 17:24 |
| _stink_ | hah | 17:24 |
| wolfger | The reason adults don't sled: everything hurts more. | 17:24 |
| cmaloney | We're not built like giant shock-absorbers anymore | 17:25 |
| wolfger | mass++; flexibility-- | 17:25 |
| cmaloney | hah | 17:26 |
