    Well, My neighbor Vance and I were talked about how to best demolish my old Jacuzzi. In the course of doing so, a group of guys quickly congregated around my backyard from out of nowhere. A bunch of 20 somethings came over and started quickly adding their EXPERT advice, at which point I encouraged them (he he he). They came over with a bunch of Sawzalls and cut that thing to bits. It was on hell of a lot of work. Vance and I are still taking stuff to the dump.

    So, for the price of a couple of beer suitcases and some steaks on the barby, the thing is demolished.

    I mostly Supervised and told them what a great job they were doing. He he he! :)

    I'm glad you took my advice :cool:

    EDIT: I just realized that I gave the advice to someone else, not you Abner. Oh well... it was a good idea anyway, and it worked! :cool:

    Hopefully you made a few new friends as well. :smile:

    Very good ideas. A couple of the guys that were helping me were MMA guys, so I am teaching them how to fight "in close" ranges. Plus, maybe I can teach them some very ancient ways that are no longer taught in many of the McDojos of today.

    Have a good one!

    Well Anber anytime you feel the need to motivate others in order to get some manual labor completed, feel free to swing by cause I have a fence that needs replacing, lol.

    I'll supply the beer and the BBQ, if you supply the beef !!!

    He he he! Nothing beats a tender juicy T-bone steak, or some milensa steak (minus the breading) in some tortillas and hot sauce, and your ready to eat some beef cave man style!!!!!!!!!!! Yeah baby! :smile:

    I know fence replacement well. Most of my yard is block wall, but there is side between one of my neighbors and I that covers about 200 ft and is wood. I replaced the whole thing about ten years. I came out good, but it was a lot of work. Luckily, my neighbor pitched in to help me, and paid me half the cost of the wood. I had Home depot deliver the treated lumber posts and the sections of pre-made fencing. I have since then replaced some of the treated posts with thick metal tubes. Lesson learned - use metal posts and braces instead of wood!!!!!
