Step 2 Foundry Update, oil slicks, vagabond, and camping

All of these things do relate, especially for those of us with a one tracked mind. Let me explain.

So, as I mentioned before, I am producing a small foundry. I have started the blower furnace image and furnace image alt but have yet to connect any juice. I had a random day the other day. I was at my companies DisplayDirect.com or www.displaydirect.blogspot.com or www.myspace.com/displaydirect warehouse and on my way back (this is the short version) ran into a tow truck driver who have a nasty looking 55 gallon drum, who said go to this and that their station and ask for Jimmy John or such, and they gave me the 30 gallon drum (very nice gas station people too) and sent me over to Billy Bob over off of this and that street where I bought (for $3) the 55 gallon drum. In the meantime I run into a friend of mine from Jr. High, and he has something like 15 Moog type 1970's organs. So, I was in a big hurry when I got home and dropped off the drums below as shown. I find out later that I had mistakenly turned the 55 gallon drum upside down! Ahhhhhh! Oil slick. I am still working on this mess. About two weeks later after cleaning as much oil out of the drum as I can, decide to put our campfire from the campout that Sister and Mr. C and I had in the backyard. I looked like a vagabond with the white smoke that rolled out of this thing! (Don't try this at home). I was very safe though. I even had a fire extinguisher (as water will not help and oil fire).

Ebay, Fishing, Dolls and NASCAR

I went to the Kansas Speedway two times last year to help with a fundraiser for our church. While I was there working (cush job) the crazy expensive suites, one of the bar tenders asked if I would go and by him a "Danica" t-shirt, because she was "huuuot!" (I tried to show the accent he used). Anyway, I went and bought the shirt for him. On the way back, I stopped by Ford Racing and picked up this license plate and then sold it on Ebay.

I love Ebay! So far I have sold over 5,000 pegboard hooks, turkey feathers, deer hair, glass shelves, and I don't know what else. Oh yea, I sold some dolls (HA!) for Heckbar! Oh, now that was funny. He brought these old dolls over. I threw on some music and we started taking pics for Ebay. The music was like boom-chicka, boom-chicka-boom! And here we are he is undressing these dolls, and I am doing a photo shoot! It was hillarious! I wish I could roll the music over this site, because, ah you just had to be there. That reminds me about another time when I saw Heckbar running around in tights, but maybe that is for another time! :)

Well I did go fishing with Heckbar not too long ago at C's Beautiful Lake. We had a great time. We were fly fishing in between spinning casting. He threw a bass bug over a sunken log and called up a "bohemuth from the deep" as he said it. About a minute later, I heard a huge splash and looked around to see the tail of this monster fish heading back down. He swears the thing was 5 or 6 pounds. ;) sure it was. But it was a big fish. He just pulled the bug out of his mouth in anticipation! Oh well, we only cried a little while. Then we went over to his honey hole and caught crappie like we were at a state fair playing the fishing game and stealing all there stuffed animals! Check out the amount of fish we caught in around an hour.
