Go inside and drink to this milestone. You're working far harder than I could and you deserve the celebration.

I wanna see that truck rooster-tailing and spraying dirt and snow all over the yard.

Hell, by the sounds of things you were rooster-tailing on your own after all of those pickled eggs.

I felt personally assaulted and violated by that dump and am awaiting to hear back from HR over the formal complaint I filed

Eh that's not gonna be an issue tonight. Last three nights or so I've averaged about 4 hours a night sleep because of how sick I felt I'd just toss and turn but now I can barely jeep my eyes open

Alright, let's do this
Technically, pure ethanol doesn't freeze until -173, so we just need to liquor you up a bit more so you can withstand the temperature.


Seriously dude, we don't want a 14" ice pop, it's a good idea to some sleep and do it in the morning when the temperature is a bit north of arctic.

Back off. I think we should let the liquor do the thinking.

Windburn hurts just the same, and there's probably a little sunburn on there. Snow reflects light like a sonofabitch, and you don't realize how much UV you're taking on a cloudy day.

Good to see you wearing more socks as advised.

Yeah, drink more warm drinks. Not only do they warm your insides up but you can warm your fingers on the mug whilst drinking it.

Perfect weather for working outdoors with small parts in tight spaces.

God is dead. God remains dead. And we have killed him. Who will wipe this blood off us? What festivals of atonement, what sacred games shall we need to invent?

I live dead east of Valentine, but across the boarder in Iowa. Just taking the dogs outside this morning had my hands burning. Keep fighting the good fight 14, but stay warm goddammit.

If the plan is to build an impromptu garage out of painting tarps and spare lumber and then heat it with one of those kerosene-powered deals that looks like a jet turbine, I'll throw down to help cover the heater's rental fee.

We could have him frozen alongside the jeep so that they may be thawed out in 30 years in order to do battle in the new San Valentine.

Looks like the Iowa border is about 220 miles from Valentine as the crow flies. Not exactly right next door.

I looked it up and it'd be a 6 hour drive for me if poo poo got gnarly and you needed a former TBI 350 owner on-hand to scratch my head and drink beer.

I am presently massively under-employed so this remains a possibility.

What 14 is doing I'd only be useful as a gopher. I'm super basic when it comes to under the hood stuff, like plugs, alternator and belt replacement, etc. That and working 6 days a week.
