I just wanna know why the mcdonalds flags blow when no others do. Maybe they are just cheap material! Gets me all hot and bothered when i drive home, then a block away-nothing!

Straight out of the West- right at the sea-wall I'm constructing... ONE LONG DAY..

and to add I had the fire another worker. big/cocky bloke too- thought I was going to get a nice can of whoop-a$$ dealing with the guy.. After I give him the word he starts playing some imtimadation racket on me.. I find out at the end of the day he's quite the skroundral from my other worker and that everyones afraid of him.. kinda scary stuff..

You should carry your kite bar in your back pocket for protection.

naugh, better to just put a stop to it before it gets that far, besides I actually liked Fred. He started out as a sharp-likeable-friendly guy, we chatted a few times between waiting out rain storms- interesting personal histroy (not sure it was all true).
Furthermore, I was mistaken that my other worker, Jean-Claude was friends with him (recommended him), seems Jean-Claude acted friendly to him because he's afraid Fred would hurt him in some way (I put Jean Claude in charge of Fred while I was away running erronds, dont know what was happening while I was gone but it was clear it wasn't working out after a few days)..
I guess I should have known something was up when I found he normallly worked for Floid Sawyer (a notorous ex-drug smuggler that runs a highly profitable and high quality construction company with an iron fist). When Fred got up in my face telling me he was "Boss-Mason" etc.. I know he was out of controll and probably one of Floids strong-men.
This might sound weird but now that "hurricain-mode" has subsided and the construction companys/workers are looking for work instead of never returning calls because they a rolling in money the local population is tranzformed to the rat pack.. But that is what happens in a closed society with limited resources..
Anyway, alls well. Wind is blowing/ stormy, maybe I'll get to kite..

Seems like the best wind is going to hit during the night...They're still calling for 15-25 on Sat, though.
