I took Spanish 9th and 10th grades. The teacher was really hotThe drywall guys are here. Dang I wish I had taken more Spanish in school.
. One major drawback though, she was married to a CHP officer .
Yeah, I get that. I do speak some Spanish. Not a lot but I can get by. So the other day when the Latino guys were here cutting trees and branches I was communicating with them. But the damn problem is every time I open my mouth Vietnamese came out of my mouth. We had a good laugh about it and I finally got on track with the correct language. LOLThe drywall guys are here. Dang I wish I had taken more Spanish in school.
I also speak pretty good German. I'm kinda glad none of that came out of my mouth....
Wiring wednesday. Chopped every wire out of engine bay. Have to get in cab with vacuum, pull seat to make room. Lots to sort out.
I saw something about translating hearing aids. There is Star Trek again.I also speak pretty good German. I'm kinda glad none of that came out of my mouth....
I believe the new apple air pods will be able to do that
Today isn't working out as planned. Met the drywall guys at the rental house at 9:30. They just took off for lunch and are coming back. They are using Quick Set mud and they may be wanting to do the whole job in one trip. I expected them to patch, tape, and fill and come back tomorrow. I was planning on taking the trailer back and meet @lkopaska for lunch. Nope. I thought I might as well cut the grass. Nope. Too wet. I ran to Burger King and I guess I will just stick around here and play on my phone.
Dude, can I get fries with that?
it will get better. Humpdays get better in the evening as I recall.
No harm, no foul. I can go tomorrow if needed. I think.Dude, can I get fries with that?
What the hell, it's a coffee shop right? The mention of Shitrock brought back cousin Jack. I was helping a neighbor complete what we called expando addition on his single wide. He's a car sleman. I'm a wrench monkey (Jacks words). Of course I enlisted that boy Jack. 4 x12 drywall going to the 8 foot ceiling. I forget how many plus me were holding it up. Jack sets 2 nails 3 or 4 inches apart. Steps maybe 2 feet and 2 more nails close spaced. After a few sheets, cigarette break. I asked, "Why that bolt pattern cuz?". Jack, "you already know."
Grrr damnit, tell me anyway!
Jack, "Space them like buttons on a shirt and one nail turns loose, they may all go like buttons on a shirt. We grew up like brothers and learned to see the chit behind one anothers eyes. I was so glad I wasn't wearing a button up. I clinched a fist full of my Tee shirt collar. With a grin, half a wink, half a stuck his tongue out, back to work. Both of us knew I might have worn my shirt like a cape the rest of that day.

Back home after a 200+mile trip to Menards and got my new garage heater, just a tad over $800 bucks.
