Looks like the sun was out, so should have been pretty warm.

I've been there many times, so it wasn't new, but the new guy that went with me commented about how different it was that the roads weren't melting with the sun out (and that was at -25 or so).

Laptop screens get sluggish in about 90 seconds, and actually stop working in about 4-5 minutes.
Hands without gloves to type never feel cold. They just hurt from the get go. With no breeze, you can still feel the hurt for about 5-6 minutes. Any breeze, and that time frame drops to about 1-2 minutes tops.

United won't try and fly planes, so I got to drive to Billings to fly home.

Tried to get the customer to cancel that trip, but no dice. Thankfully the majority of the week was only -20 to -30 D.

I laughed.

Walking out of the hotel at -40 to head for the airport (dressed for flying, not working) and we were all joking about that anyway...

The adjuster thingy apparently doesn't work anymore, so my buzz cut is basically "bald".

I'm not worried about it, but my GF is upset...?..and I now look like the head of the local chapter of the Aryan Nation.

Oh well...it'll grow back.

They can fly, it's pretty much ground crew or deicing equipment or fuel equipment not working that keeps things grounded. I was in Chicago the week they got the -50 -60 wind chill temps and was fortunate they were still flying hubs. 1500-1600 flights/day to regionals got cancelled.

Oh, I know they CAN, they just didn't.

Apparently actual temps at -40F kept the planes from coming in. Since none came in, none left...

I'd like Irv to join me in welcoming all the PWT posters, who have topped the 25-30 K post count. In to the

TIER - 1 PWT Club.

welcome, welcome, welcome.

I'm going out on a limb [LOL] to welcome as an honorary T-1 member CN, who came up with said ranking in another thread.

Which by my lack of math skilz should be closing in on the PWT monday evening, tues, the latest.

I knew a "PWT" as a Praise Worship Team.
I was wondering why you guys were suddenly talking about the praise worship so much. I did PWT search on the internet and found out what it was.

Were you in a cult or something?
02-10-2019, 17:58

LOL no cult but I've seen some cultish tendencies when it came to money/offering/tithes.
02-10-2019, 18:02
ray1970

The first few times I saw this thread referred to in other threads it took me a bit to realize what PWT meant.

Although to be fair I made no link between PWT and any sort of religion or religious activity.

Never heard the song before, interesting.

Mr. Jones and some others have had some strikingly proficient success at what they were able to do.

Just thought it was funny how it makes fun of cults, while the board is discussing cults...

I actually prefer this version, but it doesn't have the lyrics.

Not sure. But if you find one just make sure you're allowed to have multiple wives. Wouldn't be much joy in being in a cult if there weren't perks.

Damn skippy...

Only way to roll. Gotta spend all the monies for something to be reliable...

Biggest things about this one is it comes setup for air/hydraulic or electric/hydraulic, does 180? bends, and includes the first set of dies.

Getting a JD2 or Pro-Tools to the same set of options is more expensive.

Need to change out the traditional cult attire to yoga pants and sports bras though.

Have you met most of this site???

And that's your suggestion???

We hire strippers to be exclusive pwt posters who routinely post up pics of stretchy pants pics with the site logo liberally printed on their painted topless upper bodies.

Who's IN?

I'm hoping that my work will be delivered to me at my house tomorrow.

Is BuffaloBo on? I've got a question for him about flooring.
