    I don't want to wind up with a 1200 when the 12,000 is on it's way.

    Not that I think that the 1200 is a lesser instrument, it would just piss me off.

    Every GOOD Reefer Mechanic has 4 gauge sets in his truck.....light er up and we'll give you a discount on the next set....

    Wait till you see the HIGH Tech unit we're working on...hopefully it'll be legislated and you guys will be making tons of money....yes sir....I came from the field and I know who butters my bread....
    Whoops...the ole lady just took my keyboard....aw......ay.....can't ......tell...........yo..u all teh detale..........s

    evening all.

    TB That often happens to me when I am getting a cold, or just a typical ear infection.

    I stay away from the edge of the roof when that happens.

    Yea strange not dizzy just out of no where I start loss my balance then it goes way. Happen a lot during the last 6 months of treatment. But then My I was so weak I end up falling a lot of the time.

    I'm a very patient dude, but I've been being very good, and hopefully, if all the money falls into place, I'll be pulling the trigger in a week or so on a new 1200.

    Can't wait to see what you have brewing, Doug.

    Hey, maybe Doug will let our group be "beta testers."
    I do get 'regular techs' to Beta test the product if they do a lot of Reefer work and they have to agree to do a write up on the product so I get the honest feedback about where I screwed up. You know what it's like....you can be on a service call for 4 hours and another tech walks up and 15 minutes later he nails the problem....same for me...I THINK I got all the features and needs figured out and BANG, I get blind sided by an overlooked real life situation that I failed to address. It exposes me to the competition earlier but makes sure my product is better applied AND built....I think.

I appreciate everyones advice, words of encouragement, and sharing their quitting experiences. But seriously Doug, a four peckered West African Stud Buzzard?Who knew there was a plus side to withdrawls?


    Hey Bubz, How about joining me in quitting?
    Dont tempt me!!! My wife and I did Chantix... I was down to about 4 smokes a day... wife quit the chntix cause she heard about the depression aspect and she felt like it was affecting her that way. I have an appt for a physical friday... I may say something to the doc then.

    Thanks Monkey! It sure does bring back memories! I miss it terribly.
    The only problem with that presentation was that it was a Trident Submarine. A missile shooter. A real submarine is a Fast Attack Submarine. We dont do the 90 dys out 90 days in. We do a schedule that would make your head spin. Out 1 week in a weekend, out 3 weeks in 1 week, out 8 weeks in 10 days, out a week in 2 weeks. We averaged in port 100 days a yr. and during that 100 days we would spend one month in for a mini upkeep. That leaves 2.5 months to throw about the rest of the yr.
    That pic of a sub shooting a torpedo was a fast attack. Seawolf I believe.
    The pic of the torpedo room with the orange and green torpedoes.... the orange were dummies used on the torpedo range. The green were live MK 48 ADCAP torpedoes.
