If you get to the point of buying a machine, you'll get itchy to quit your other job. That and its tough to convince a bank to give you a loan if you are only doing something on the side. Not saying you're going the bank route, but you get the jist. The itch doesn't go away.

That itch you speak of is more like a tooth ache that won't go away without drastic measures...

like an ice skate and large rock...

I'm putting feelers out trying to find some kind of contract work, unfortunately no one answers the phone around here and very few if any call back. I'm hoping to be done clocking in within the next year or two and go logging full time.

There is a factory mentality with the people who work inside all day, sort of like rats in a cage. They know they can get out but life is better inside, they don't have to try everything is provided as long as you spin your little wheel.

Not lazy. I talked to a guy who works in a cubicle as a computer programmer. He does trail maintenance on the weekend. He says he gets into a different world when at work, and before he knows it, the day is over. It sounds strange, but I guess he likes it. I remind folks who want to work in the outdoors that it isn't always sunny days and flowers. But, every day is a picnic in the woods, rain, wind, snow or sun.

I agree 100% to much fluff and to many middle men tryin to make a buck on the same commodity. we have got to get back to common sense. got to throttle back this big gov.t too.

I was referring to folks that that think it better to do nothing than work for less than they think they worth. nothing wrong with that fellow, he trying to get ahead.

Morning Men! Just got back in from huntin' with Colt. Seen a little scrub buck...I almost pulled the trigger on him, Colt froze up wouldn't even shoulder his gun and about the time I was about to squeeze the trigger the litle buck decided it was time to skidaddle.

Factories SUCK BAD! I worked in one for 2 weeks...I could hear the buzzing from the flourescent lights...heck with working in doors.

Dang Rob, I didn't know you don't have work yet. What are ya wanting to do?
