  1. Working around cranes in the States, most cranes in the last 10 years or so have limit shuts down on them.

    It will sound alarms and basically shut it down, thus stopping the lift if you are over capacity. Plus 99 percent of the cranes have onboard scales.

    Yes they can be over ridden if the operator hits the controls.

    But any smart operator will not over ride the controls.

    I have been on some spooky lifts.

    Damm near shit my pants one day when a rubber tired crane did a 3 point stand. The fools set the one outrigger pad on a seam line between concrete and asphalt. Uh guys. You really want to do that. Yes we will be ok. Right. Mid lift in sank. Causing the crane to sink at that corner. Thank goodness the operator got the load set down in time

  2. Voter rolls need to be current and correct.

    Reason I say this is, I used to live in the state of Ga. I moved 3 years ago..

    This last election I kept getting calls and text msgs.. to make sure I get out and vote in the Ga. Election

    Huh. Yep I was still on the voter roll.

    Took 10 minutes to get off it..

    Oh and now a funnier thing.

    5 years ago, my wife gets a notice for jury duty. Yes Ga. Again. I call the court.

    Don't you need to be a citizen for jury duty. Uh yes.. Well we have a problem.

    I explain she is not a citizen. I had to send in a copy of her green care. Certain things blocked out. Oh she was even on the voter roll..

  3. I can't afford the Affordable Health Care

    I am self employed and my wife is also on my payroll. Yes she helps me with my work.

    I had a heart attack in 2014. They installed a Stent. Not fun.

    That deal was over 55,000 US..

    Yea here's my debit card... Not

  4. There is a Thai restaurant in the States, that the wife and I vist often.

    She has become somewhat friends with the owner and some of the staff.

    There is a sever there, who misses home much. But their Visa has expired and now worries about what will happen if they try to return home.

    So this person justw works and then goes to their house. Not going out much. She asked how did it happen

    The reply was, Well I was going to go back at the proper time, but I missed the date and then I got worried about what would happen. So now I just stay here.
