    Anyway, recently we went out to a grassfire on a Friday afternoon. It seems welders around here don't like carrying fire extinguishers, water or even been with which to put out the fires they cause...

    I want to be a welder. Hell, I just want to make 6-fig's a year too, but I know that's not happening

    Most of the time the welders start a fire, then get in their trucks, call 911 and haul ass.

    Common sense does not seem to be a requirement for the guys who weld fence line. Ranch welders...

    I've gotta make another 500 posts to learn the secret handshake, plus there's the spanking initiation...
