Yes, the shape of the your other crank should not effect the performance of the compensator.

The I.R.S. just called, again. They're still going to take me to jail. I told them I'd be here all week.

Larry,did you "act" concerned and worried? . I would like to get one of those calls, I bet I could get them really worked-up.

The initial call ( today ) is a recording. I didn't call back the number provided. I did last time. It was pretty funny actually.

I'll throw a couple bucks in your compensatory so you can get some tooth paste.

Morning all, another beautiful day here in the land of ten thousand taxes, spent the day on the river enjoying being out finally.

Water was way up so fishing sucked but the tenps close to 80 made it an enjoyable day.

Got home about 3:30 and the wife was ready to go Kub and go to supper.

Kub was great, other than me leaving the windshield off and of course catching a fair sized pebble just below the eye.

Supper was a perfect example of how not to get a tip, gal forgot the lemon for the wife's iced tea, forgot she wanted buttered toast on her chicken sandwich, forgot my extra rice for the jambalaya, served the main meal 2 minutes after bringing us the appetizer, never got the second beer I ordered, told her we were done and would like our bill, 35 minutes later it arrived, just as we were getting up to leave.

And they want $15 an hour??

Anyway, good luck to those replacing body parts, and have a great day.

Al

I'll try to pull some strings and get in one of the "Country Club" prisons, I think they have a Concierge service there to provide that. Might need some money for golf *****, though. I think you have to provide your own.Thanks.
