can't make Rausch Creek this month but me a buddy from work are talking about going around the end of March. Thinking about going on the North east side this time around.

Sweet! I cant wait to have new parts well new to me parts at least.

Can you blame her? lol
Tell her not to worry, "whats the worst that could happen" lol

March is my birthday, and I have a whole extra paycheck that month.
Sounds like a good time to go to RC to me..

Anyone know a painter (spray booth) that is in need of work? Job is in Curtis bay painting big metal containment units. Pm me if interested. Must have experience. Part time or full time.

jakbob

might sound stupid, but how hard is it to use a paint gun and not get runs?

-on another note-

i have to ask THAT question, what size tire can i fit with 4.5". for some reason the "lift and tire" thread wont work here... at my job...

and who here had wanted to buy my wheels... i think it was dukie? cant remember and i dont have the text messages anymore...

dukie564

33s with some trimming, 32s w/o.

and I have a set of those wheels already in my shed that I picked up of craigslist a while back

jakbob

thats what i thought. i was hoping that pic was more like "these are rims that i used to have, and then i was stupid and got rid of them... now i want them again" but its all good.

we need to get like a karma thread going... anyone local to southwest baltimore got tires for sale lol

so my girl went back to work today. i am so relieved. a family of 5 on $12/hr is a hard thing to do... phew.

Good for you guys. That should help out. I also have a family of 5 so I feel your pain. It sure makes the jeep build a lot slower!

jakbob

yeah... so many times it was "too close to call" on rent and food... but that tax return she is sharing with me more than makes up for it... can i get a KA-mother ****ing-CHING?!

my waggy has been on 235/75's for the last year... and a 3" (guessing) lift on it from the previous owner... just saying, needs long arms...

Awesome. I have a family of 5 as well. How you managed on 12/he is very impressive. We are blessed that my wife can stay home. She also just started homeschooling this year. Everyone is home. Thank God I have a job.

jakbob

we were prepared, and some luck.

her biological father basically was extorting her for her car (co-signer) and didnt like me, so he took it. (whoop de doo, long story). jeep is already payed off so now we dont have to worry about any car payments, only gas. Food stamps played a big role, and since we had a baby on thanksgiving, WIC as well. and somehow we havent gotten a turn off notice from BGE but havent paid since october... but, now combined we will make 24.25 and hour and i get a lot of overtime, plus the tax return, so we are in the clear. we actually moved 18 days before christmas because we couldnt afford the 1600/month rent in arnold (landlord was awesome) and went to a 1400/month in ferndale. so luck, luck, and me working my *** off at 45-50 hrs a week made it happen. im glad my jeep never took a **** on me lol

Pudgy Fingers

That's pretty awesome. It's refreshing to have a man stand up and take care of his family and do what he needs to. It took me awhile to learn this lesson. We do without a lot of stuff but I am happier now then ever. We pretty much squandered my wife's $2800/month income but we are living in the same house even after losing that chunk of change. That's a great story. Thanks for sharing.

jakbob

thanks. what is even better is that one of the kids isnt mine, so im stepping up for another dead beat (as in he is 21/22 and still has his mom do everything for him) dad as well. i mean, he lost his job at advance auto of all places...

but anywho, i actually bought the waggy cause it had 4 doors, and it already had some random lift on it. it kept me happy. it just has to be BIGGAH!!!

Pudgy Fingers

Right on. When we start hiring again, likely April, I'll post here. We start at $11/hour and I can pretty much guarantee getting you an interview the rest is up to the individual. Hopefully he finds a job before then but I like to throw it out there.
