After a long holiday seperation, the guys gather again to work their magic.
OK, it's not really magic, but don't tell Wes... It might upset him. :-)
 I dunno. Can he hold a wrench? |

| Ross: | Ugh, what a headache. |
| Wes: | It's not a headache it's more of a hangover. But, yeah! Like every other time we get together we ended up with some nasty fumes wafting. Thank goodness Steve wasn't there to add to the senses. SO, the order of events: Hood stripping, Door grinding, and Bird housing. I wonder if that's a popular sporting event..."Bird Housing" ?? which brings us to the odor of events: Chemical stripper, burnt paint, glue, stain, and Methane! |
| Ross: | "Bird Housing." Sounds like a makeover show on TLC or something. Actually, should be "BirdBRAIN Housing." You like the little feathered friends, huh? So it WAS a hangover?! Gee, with no beer and no Steve, I thought I'd get away without it this time. So when are you picking up another gallon of that sludge, bud? Some that hasn't already eaten the can that it's in? |
| Wes: | I like the projects, not so much the birds. When this is done I doubt I'll actually sit around watching them. Why are you in such a rush to get more stripper? Is it so you can shake it around and splash it all over us like you did with the Elmer's glue bottle? Thanks for that tip bye the way...hey....at least you got the glue out. |
| Ross: | Hey, that works with ketchup! At least if you leave the cap on. :-) Quite a bit of paint left on that hood, BTW. You're going to need more stripper to bare that sheetmetal. Especially since the sander was annoying the missus and kiddo. And I promise not to slosh stripper all over your shop. |
| Wes: | Well - I'll get more stripper if you promise not to shake it. I'm still trying to get the glue off everything. Racka fracka...Shmo! Yeah - who'da thunk the kids would be trying to sleep at 8:30 at night? Crazy aint it? |
| Ross: | Tsk... Children. ;-) I TOLD you that Elmer's glue makes a great waterproofer when applied in a solution. So what if it wasn't diluted and we weren't waterproofing anything at the time. Sheesh, the grief I take for trying to help you. ;-P Ahem... So what's on the agenda for next time? |
| Wes: | Not my turn next time. Don't know. In the mean time I'm hoping to get my car into a workable space, and get the tunes connected for the summer. I'm picturing a cartoon with peanuts entangled in wires, music blasting and them yelling "Shut it off! Shut it off!" |
| Ross: | Just an ordinary Guy's Night in other words, huh? Anyway, if my basement doesn't tsunami on me with this weekend's rain, maybe we can resume work on my garage walls then? |
| Wes: | Oh - they are never ordinary. Ordinary to us maybe. I'm all for working on the walls. Tell the mice we're a comin' ! |
| Epilogue | And so ends another episode. Maybe Steve can join us next time, if he ever makes it back from the frozen tundra. |
