Re: MTD Yardman Transaxle Rebuild
AHHhhhh Sunny FLORIDA... a little cool this morning , but very refreshing after hitting 96 recently...
Yeah ...I just cant understand why folks love to put up with wood-stoves, boilers, radiators, snow, ice-dams,
shoveling, and all that bundling up routine ....... go north on vacation & PLAY in the snow ...then LEAVE !!!
Did you guys know FLORIDA has NO State Income Tax !! And I don't know of any County or city taxes either..
of course a state Sales tax .... 6% - 7% depending on county !
Think I'll take a ride over to the beach later & check out the latest in THONG Bikinis the sweeties are wearing..!!
..............
..:cool2::banana::drool: ..:laughing:
yes Rog I sent the sunshine... but heard one of the guys in Tenn. HI-JACKED it on the way...
will send more as soon as I cash your last check ....which I'm still waiting for ...( LOL )

Re: MTD Yardman Transaxle Rebuild
Roger,,
Let's not forget some hard rules of all plumbers: Never park closer than a quarter mile to the current job. Never carry any parts that may speed the repair time on the current job. Never purchase the correct part on the first three runs to the plumbing repair parts warehouse. Never leave your helper working on the job while you're on a run to the repair parts warehouse. Never forget to run by the girl friend's house or work on the run to the repair parts warehouse.
There are several more, however, it will be a bit too long for one forum. lmbo

Boo,
I'll get another sunshine check in the mail ASAP.. I appreciated what you sent, the sun actually peeked out of the clouds yesterday for about five minutes.. I cheered! Then it went away...
Blazin - Don't complain about "mowing", no matter what you have to wear! You'd have to use a snowblower here to mow with...
NO-BA-MA - They keep promising that we have warmer temps coming, but they never seem to get here. Stopped out to camp yesterday and the upper half of the lake is still frozen over..
STU, (de-baker) "Avanti" - (Get it?) The only plumbers rule I can think of that you left out was "Never pull your pants up high enough to hide your crack when you bend over!" . . . And you should NEVER worry about how long something is for this forum! We are striving for the world's longest posting on any lawn tractor forum, anywhere!

Hey there Rog ..... looks like we got a new enlistee...?? I saw that "Avanti" post too!
And a PLUMBER to boot... does that NOT make him a pipe-fitter as well ?? He'd be right at home building those
"sewer-pipes" you served on ... When I became an electrician ...Waaaayy back .... I went crazy learning all the different fittings we used in doing "pipe-work" I did pipe many years and learned to do a pro-looking and functional job.... then comes the "rope" ...(ROMEX --BX cable) easier to work with but learning circuitry rules over again because NOW a WHITE wire has become a HOT or a FEED and a real PITA when trouble-shooting... new stuff to learn ..then "smurf" plastic-pipe came along ... just as I left that trade and went back to fixing aircraft....then one day I happened to be in a huge military /civilian complex and visited down in its bowels to find a parts pick-up area... the pipe-work for plumbing alone blew me away.... lookin back ...all I can say is ...GLAD I was'nt a plumber ...too much SHEET to remember
and that Studebaker Avanti ... A former boss of mine had one.... it had a super-charger ( from the factory) and that thing gave a lot of "muscle-cars" a sheet-fit ... and that's enough sheet for now ... lets see if the newbie stays on board ... HEY NEWBIE ...Avanti .... hang in there !! ...... later ..all you outlaws !! Boobala

Re: MTD Yardman Transaxle Rebuild
I mowed this past Monday and apparently, I mowed all the newly acquired color off the Hybrid Bermuda. Had plenty of storms this past week and the color is beginning to restore. By the way all, being Hybrid Bermuda, is that the reason we can't hear it growing? Well at any length.
I still have my Avanti and that reminds me, I need to run out and find a new car cover worthy of the ole girl's value to me. She is old, but, not dead and still draws looks from the fellas wherever I take her.
Y'all have a great day.
