    Yup. Had to remove the fluid end of a Gaso quintaplex injection pump to replace a piston and crosshead in Anith, UT. Only way to remove and install the nuts was with those wrenches. Fluid end weighed over 2.5 tons and was a bitch of job in the middle of the summer working in the pump house...

    Bradycardia. Resting HR in the low 50's and unless your doctor is familiar with athletes they get all freaked out. Miguel Indurain had a resting HR in the mid-30's when he was racing.

    Heading up to the San Juan this weekend to float the quality waters for two days. Beautiful time of the year to be up there relaxing in the boat with a flask of Red Breast.

    I'm a big fan of Owls personally...

    We have Great Western Horned Owls that roost around our orchard with plenty of dove and other small animals to feed on. Also several Red Tails as well as other hawks hang out around our place. Beautiful birds.

One evening my dog in a fenced in portion of the property started barking like crazy and went out to investigate. There was a skunk that acted like it was rabid...
