I believe you can make moonshine for personal use but its illegal to make it and sell it. You know the Gubment don't like when they don't get that tax money.

I think "moonshine" is defined by being illegal to sell...then is sold.

I won't touch that garbage again it smells like brake cleaner and tastes like rubbing alcohol
Yep.
"According to a book about the illicit production of alcohol in Scotland, "Moonshine Whisky" is that made in the dark, akin to "black market" or "Uisge Breatha Dubh" which is Gaelic for "Black Whisky""
Another reference: "Moonshine, or untaxed liquor, is made from fermented corn mash distilled in a cooker. It derives its name from the term moonlighter used in England to describe the night time runners that smuggled brandy from France."
Note: Moonshine originally referred to brandy: "The word moonshine appears in about 1785, referring to brandy that was smuggled into England at night under cover of the moon. "

Spent today doing more storm cleanup. Probably the rest of the month as well.
It was a balmy -16C to -18C degrees out (0-3 degrees F). That's without the windchill factored in. Thankfully mostly groundwork (planned due to the cold). Just as cold tomorrow, but it should be warming up for the weekend.
Lent one of my guys (climber) to another company for a few days until their climber (company owner's son) returns from his vacation in Cuba (yes, a lot of Canadians vacation there). Another example on why its good to network with other tree companies. However, we are fortunate enough to have such a large market.

We had a job come in today that I bid back in Dec. 2011, 25 months ago. The guy called and asked if the bid was still good. I told him I would honor the bid although I usually don't from that far back because as I remembered I bid it WAY on the high side.

Well it's minus 25C (-13F) this morning. Going to be minus 30-40C (-22 to -40F) with the windchill.
I'm glad I remembered to plug in the truck last night. I put Mike's diesel chipper in my friends heated garage. It should be easier to start this morning.

Plowed all day yesterday on the large account I have. It was 33 and slushy in the am when I started turning to water so I decided to wait to salt after pushing all the schit over so the salt wouldn't run off with the water.
. Well the temp plummeted so fast that by the time I was done in some areas the salt was not doing anything but pitting the ice. Gotta get a handle on this salting schit. Wouldn't want a Nun to fall on her keister.

I'm struggling to get motivated enough to drag myself outside to plug in the block heater on wifey's car.
Will open the floor hatch to the basement and screw around with the new Haas knee ascender later. Another TCI Expo impulse purchase (thanks Mr. Bonner!).

Looked out there for a second earlier. Not good.
