concrete is explosive!
Rather, the cylinders broken today were. The scale reads from 0 to 400,000 pounds. We started getting nervous when we passed 300,000... I have now had my excitement for the day. -
not now
I can't afford to be sick. Not ever, but especially not now. The time it takes to get to there, get seen, and get back it significant.
