Yeah, but you have to come back. That's the worst part of going on vacation.

Yo Chad whats up!? I had to run up there by you a few days ago and now I know why you didn't answer. I woke up at my friends house and the news said it was -41, -59 wind chill. I feel sorry for the dog having to go outside to pee at that temp.

It's gonna be COLD next week! I got to go stock up on parts again, and get a couple more pair of long underpants, and maybe even break down and get some insulated overalls. I hope I get a bunch of emergency late night calls so I can rake in that OT!

Once I bought a pair of insulated "bibs" (overalls) years ago.... I was hooked. I have 2 pairs all the time now. One in my work van and one in my personal pick-up's back seat. I prefer them to long johns because they are easy on and off in a snap. This eliminates the problem I used to have of going from too cold to too hot. You know from the roof to the boiler room, etc..... besides bibs are better for kneeling in the snow for rooftop units, they keep your pants clean and dry and I find them more comfortable. Over the years I have also found that owning them has been cheaper then buying longjohns.
