Now that's some smart advertising. And the welder probably had some fun putting it together. If I saw that, I'd call him if I needed some welding done.

From the city that gave us this girl.

Yup, he's a welder all right. I hope the mortician doesn't get any ideas from this.

That's a heck of a deal for welding.

Must be interesting running it through the car wash.

momof4, that's what I thought. About five years ago, when I was unemployed for a while, I worked at an oil refinery near Bellingham (close to the Washington-Canadian border) during a shutdown-and-maintenance period. Aside from the guys (mostly Latinos) who went in to clean the tanks, almost everyone was a pipefitter or welder and I was amazed at how much the welders made. Some of that, they said, was a premium for working at refineries, but even the pay they said they got for other jobs was pretty damn good.
