Could not agree more!! And Marcus, my hopes for your complete recovery.


And addition to Marcus' issue with the ladder condition, make sure the base is on firm footing. Mine wasn't during a cutter cleaning job and broke my elbow when I hit the concrete. In a cast for 6 weeks and PT after that. Lucky I didn't hit my head!!


And John, my dear wife doesn't yell, but she's not happy when I'm up on a ladder!!
