CFM Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 (edited) I love Christmas. My seemingly yuge family comes up here for a week (overfill 6 houses - some are yuge )and parties. Skate, play hockey in the cove, ride sleds if snow, downhill skiing / sledding / etc/etc Most all the food and beer are from the US. Good times ! Been doing it for near 50 yrs.

Precisely Don Maybe we can put all the Afghan refugees and those literally dying to get in at the southern border together in a big factory and start cranking out widgets and gizmos that spoiled rotten white American children demand to find under their holiday trees.

You could always weld up old engine parts and make her something from the heart. I know my wife would appreciate that. Probably even save you a few bucks.

SayatodaU.P.eh? Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 Does anyone here even know what the average yearly salary is for a Port of LA operator is? It makes the UAW jealous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
