From the looks of the earlier picture with Joe, our desks do need some cleaning! I did clean them up after a few emails...

I think that is the first time I have ever seen a broom in my brothers hands.

I didn't see much debris being pushed around there - was he hamming it
up for the camera? My bet is that you keep that place pretty darn clean.

Well, David, it looks as though we now have proof of the Peter Principle:
"In a Hierarchy, Every Employee Tends to Rise to His Level of Incompetence."
I sure hope that I get promoted some day to sweeping!

I think I have risen as far as I can go...that is, unless I eat another burrito.

Back to the car.
Today we really started to bend up some tubes. I imagine we will have the front and rear clips "tacked" into place tomorrow or Monday. "Clip" is and industry term for the front 1/2 (front clip) or rear 1/2 (rear clip) of the body. I am pretty sure by the end of next week the body will be on for good.
I will post more pics and videos tomorrow.

Go ahead, have TWO more burritos. You've earned them for Meritorious Sweeping Service.

With Don Aristeo around the shop, you can hardly let a chip fall before he is right behind you cleaning it up. Problem is, you can't set anything down either as it gets "put away."
I don't know what we'd do without him. People always comment on how clean our shop is. (I always think it is a mess, but what do I know?)

I throughly enjoyed all 84 seconds of that clip, twice.

Anything else you would like to see?
(We will do a running shot of the car once the body is on).
