    Politically incorrect thought of the day

    I think most that wear the ribbons are Hollywood types that engage in that type of behavior, and are some of our favorite actors. I don't know if telling anyone about their behavior is worth the breath it comes out of. My father is in stage 4 Lung cancer after quitting for a few years. We told...

    Dreams

    I don't ever dream, maybe 3-4 times a year. I am not sure it would help much. I think much of my success is talking honestly with people who have helped me meet people that have things for sale. Networking i think is the number one strategy, that has helped me along with working twice as hard as...

    Reducing Startup Time

    I just went to $2 for 3min. Up just a quarter, But at the same time went to $1 tokens, and give a free Token on a $10 bill. Had very few ask, and those that did i told them they could save money with a $10 bill, and they were fine. When i am washing hunters blood and mud off the walls and entry...

    Just when you thought government couldn't insult us more.

    Even doing these procedures- There are many ways to hide contraband. A friend runs a jail in town, and says the woman with DD's may have only AA's. Cavity searches are the only way to make sure. Is there a secondary agenda to this?? Maybe it is making the airlines take over the screening and...

    Floor heat temp settings?

    There are too many variables to say if that will keep the bays warm. I think it may be too cool. In the middle of winter my concrete is probably close to 100 degrees or warmer to heat the bays. I have a Good indoor outdoor thermometer with a remote sensor. I put the remote sensor out in the bays...

    Door Openers in SS

    I had electric openers on one wash. Shaft drives will unravel the cables, and drive you crazy. If the door sticks at all the opener will unravel the cables. The chains will rust really bad. We tried nickel plated chain and it lasted a little longer. I have one wash that is automated with...

    Tow Truck Driver of the Year

    Tow trucks are notoriously bad. I sent one a bill for $50 to clean up a mess it took an hour to clean up after, I figure about about 50gallons of mud. I did get paid!! The flatbeds are extremely oily and full of parts. I had a driver lower to boom to go into the vector, and in the process...

    NRCC convention in Atlantic City

    It was fun to have you stop by Bill. Had a great time showing you around. I know making you go to all five washes in wild 50mph winds was exciting. But chicago bested us with 80 mph winds those days . You should buy a last minute ticket and see us all again at kleen rite on the 10th. Its a fun...

    100% tokens. I would like to give more incentive for a 20 but The POS Rowe 1400--uses the $10 bucket twice for a $20. The $1 tokens have made the customers much more generous in their dropping coins in. It was way too many quarters to wash a vehicle. And now instead of a quarter they drop a $1...

I have 5 washes-- the first 12K tokens just seemed to disappear out of the changers, I bought another...

    Rebuilding an Airlift MagnaGlide Carriage

    I called today for 3 more seal kits. I got the same crap from them, i need to go to dealer and pay big money. The tech sent me seals two weeks ago for free. A Monkey can replace the two seals after the two snap rings are removed. I also am as mad as you now about their service.

    Rebuilding an Airlift MagnaGlide Carriage

    I just rebuilt a magnaglide last week/ airlift sent me the seals. After the tube is down its easy to use a block of wood and knock the carriage off the tube. Then remove the seals. Inside the carriage you will find a rust buildup that needs to be removed--easier with a non magnetic tool. The...

    Middle eastern operators

    Mac - you are right. I have renters from the middle east and they think every one is out to screw them--Mainly because thats what they all do-- try to screw each other. They are tighter than birch bark. I was just down to florida, as due to the economy, picked up a place at a bargain. Every gas...
