Well got out a little late this morning abou 8:30 because we stayed out till about 2 last night (go to the same party every year but I sure could have stayed home). Go down the road from my house and start seeing truck parts and the road and ditches all torn up, then look up ahead an see my backhoe on one side in the ditch an a pickup on the other side. Get out to move my hoe an it is running wide open, get in and it won't move. They had broken a line and the Hyd. oil all pumped out under it an burned the pump up. Go over to the truck an one boy is still in it and just can't even wake up. Go to anothers house (the owner of the truck) and go in and wake him up off the couch. After the hoe cooled some I put in 10 gal of oil and was able to get it off the road then get the truck out of the way (they broke a tie rod off of it so we just hooked a tractor to the front an yanked it off the ground and pulled it to his shop. Then I see they tore some rafters out of the shed when they got the hoe, I was not a happy camper). So after all this I call the Cat place and they start rounding up people and parts on news years morning. The reason for this is the backhoe is the main part of feeding 550 cows so it has to run. They will have a good size bill after all this, I won't be paying for this one. More proof that you just can't fix stupid.
 
Your New Year sure got a crappy start. Shure hope it improves. Best of luck.

All you got to do i think Riggs and you will get a bill. When they actually have to work on something it gets bad in ahurry. Last i knew the charged $125.00 per hour from the time they left the shop till they got back to the shop. That was a few years ago.
 
I cant believe a big tuff guy like you would whine about a sprained ankle. Oh by the way WTF is the difference between a first and third degree sprained ankle. :lol2: :lol2: :lol2: :lol2:
