You betcha cool guy!

I've been known to drink a beer in 8 hours, which is a testimony to my bad taste, but it's all about safety on all fronts, even if the beer is warm and flat.

Now you know we have to stop this Ever-Ready bunny of a saga on the rapids that beat you up. I seem to recall that you had information that said there wasn't any rapids on that stretch of river. I also recall that you tried to stop, then picked your line down the drop. That took some serious moxie, more then I ever hope to have. I also recall you were the one who then spent some time salvaging the wreckage. I think you did real good.

: Hear, hear! The only time I engage in alcoholic management is when I'm doing
: the sanding. The hooch helps ease the boredom and usually directs my
: thoughts to thinking of ways of running those rapids in the rebuild so I
: can get a little revenge. Oops, I hear Brianne swearing a little. No
: worries, they're only thoughts, not action plans. As for workplace safety,
: I lost out on full grades when you mentioned the epoxy. I have ruined most
: of my clothing because of mysteriously appearing epoxy smudges. I sure
: don't know how they got there but I can now wear anything I own and call
: them my work clothes.

: Hey, when Ken Sutherland gets here he's gonna be able to do the yakboggan
: thing. It has been snowing here for four days now so there is enough to
: make a good go of it. I'll get the wife to video us having icy fun so you
: can all see how neat it is to do a put-in the canadian way.
