We almost used helicopters a couple years back and ended up finding a crane 3 hours away that could reach and was cheaper...real bummer
10k for the chopper and ground crew.
Re: Whatcha smokin tonight?
Drinking cheap tonight. Went into the liquor store intent on not spending more than $50 on a bottle. The cheapskate in me saw the Tullamore Dew 1.75L for $45 and grabbed it. Smoking an Armada with it.

Re: you can't make this stuff up
In early June, Toyota announced the recall of nearly 100,000 Tundra pickups and about 3,500 Lexus luxury SUVs to fix a problem that could cause their engines to lose power while driving.
At the time, Toyota said it was working to find a solution to the issue. The solution, it now says, is simply to replace the entire engine on each one of the 103,500 big trucks and SUVs.
The vehicles involved are 2022 and 2023 model year Toyota Tundras and Lexus LX 600s. Only regular gasoline-powered versions, not hybrids, are involved in this recall, according to Toyota. (The Tundra is available in both gas-only and “iForce Max” hybrid versions.)

Went to the UPS store to return this to Amazon: 
It’s lipstick on a pig. Just a fancy tube over a drill bit. Picking up a perfec draw instead.

Went and picked up a water heater yesterday as there was no heat in the water yesterday morning. In the process of pulling the wires to replace it I ran across a red button so I pushed it, it clicked so I turned it back on and had hot water a few hours later. Will watch it a few days before returning the new one.

Re: $300 lighter vs $3 lighter
@Ksqsmoking is correct, @ShawnOL.
Go to that website and fill out the form and it'll give you an address to send your lighter to. Magically, it'll come back 12 weeks later. Brand new. You don't have to show receipts of purchase or anything else. I did it once with a table top lighter, triple flame $100 jobby. Third time I used it. It fell off the grill onto the pavement. Came back a couple months later. Brand new.
