nrb1.....thanks for the plug dated 7/15/2001 here in Wet Cement. 'Cable Dawgs are our best and the only teachers we will have'. Lemco spends a lot time here hoping to learn things we can incorporate into our tools as improvements. nrb1, we are glad to have you as a new and valued customer. You are right. The XP coring tools do save time($). One tool strips the jacket and preps the cable. The XCP coring tools do all of that plus bevel the center conductor (making the Y-190 last longer) and control its length.....all in the same amount of time($). Here is the kicker.....with Lemco you get more cuts per tool($$$). You can see them at www.lemco-tool.com. Sorry for the commercial intrusion, but you can (will) find this beneficial. $$$$$

Good morning all,I received a call from one my oldest friends yesterday evening.He said his back had finally gone out on him and both his legs were numb.Here is one of those old dogs that has always been able to accomplish the seemingly the impossible construction task.I hope he will get over this.I need him to head up the construction division of the new co.I asked him last night he said he would.I am steadly gathering old dogs,men let me tell you'all the dream will come true this time.I'm personally glad to see Comcast buy At&t's cable endevor.I've worked on Comcast systems many times over the years.I like their people.They have well trained people that respect old dogs for their ability,and the fact we come to make a dollar and get the job done.I personally can't understand how anybody in this business can be a hack.My work is to me like leaving my signature behind.Would you Fuc. up your own name? What you do in this business will follow you through out your career.Its a funny thing when I think back to the men that gave me my beginning in this business Mike Brakefield thank you for starting American Spliceco in my home town,and Wayne Blanchard(GOD REST HIS SOUL)for being a hard ass on me.(Wayne didn't play no shit).Let me ask everybody a Question.If it was still the horse and buggy days,and you were travling across this country on a wagon train .Lets say you had two choices two wagon trains.One was headed up by this old hard ass that had made the trip many times,even had a few scalps of his own,been there and back .The other was ran by a bullshiter,a liar and a cheat.His price for the trip across the country was much less than the old man.I wonder could you see through the bullshit and spend your money to get there safely? Most of you out there only know me from this computer,I am one of those Big Old Dogs that they always send into the worst gettos because they know know the bad won't fuc. with me.I'm not bragging I'm just stating "FACT".When this new Co. takes off I just wanted people to know who is at the helm.It is very seldom I get used in this business,just ask Mike Keyser ,Eily McKay,and Jim Schindledecker the President and Vice Presidents of PROTEL.Well I've flapped my jaw enough for now,the damn boats outside are calling me,time to get at it.I hope everybody has a great day and makes Big $$$$$$ and by the way if you want to call me a give me a piece of your mind here is my #'s252-###-#### or252-###-#### See Ya
