djunkie,do you work at the docks in LB? Longshoreman by chance? Picture kinda looks like it.

I heard y'all had 60 mph winds :2purples: That's almost what we call a hurricane.

Yes I do Shadow. We did have some nasty winds last night that did shut the cranes down. I was told at about 11 PM that there was some sort of a Tornado or something like that brewing out by Catalina. It never made it to us but it did blow hard for a while. Its crazy being under those cranes when the wind starts blowing. They do sway quite a bit.

Do you know my buddie Ed Derringer? He's a Lonngshoreman down around there somewhere.

[djunkie]

No that name doesn't sound familiar. I know a lot of peoples faces but not their names. Work with different people everyday, maybe if I saw him. There are a lot of people down there now. We just had a major hiring and it is crazy. But with all the work they needed to do it.

I'm sorry hun, I know it sucks, try to keep yourself dry and look forward to a nice dry evening in a nice warm bed

Unfortunately I work nights so I don't see my bed until 3 or 4 AM. But it isn't that bad. With all the good weather we have around here I can put up with a little rain and wind once in a while.

He used to be on here as Edroe I believe. I met him at the first OP6 at RD's place in July 2001.

Ya that does describe a lot of guys down there. If he works out the hall I am sure I have probably seen him before but if he is steady somewhere than I probably haven't.

Yes, he most definitely is. And your description of him is dead-on, obviously ince you knwo him. But anyway, he looks like he could/would beat the crap out fo you, but he was just super cool.

Funny you should say that.I've got nothing but respect for Ed.Last season at the river I had to tune up some gang banger for harassing some friends daughters and causing trouble.Busted him up pretty good.Anyway about 2am Ed and i were standing in the dark talking and here comes 6 homies.Ed didn't flinch just stood there looked at me and said"here comes your buddies theres 6 of them.You take 3 and i'll take 3."Turns out they were headed in our direction but didn't want any trouble this time.One was already at the hospital :hammerhea
Most people would say oh shit what are we gonna do :eek: ?Ed just stood there with me.
