 Well the only thing that might lead me to believe such a statement is that it did not end with "For good this time".

 If I remember right you're no spring chicken and have been around long enough to have known some vintage iron?

 After so long you pass a point of no return then no matter what you say or try and do otherwise is futile, you're a pump operator. Like so many and "Many" you're just gettin out of a pump or parkin it for a while. Heck Many pumps almost every day. This morning he packed off a placing boom system with hot mud now he's out pricing traffic cones. What time's your mud tommorrow Mnay?

Hey and thanx for some great old pump pix and keep droppin in now & again!

 Didn't you post this one also PumperTom, serial # 2001.001

 There's an outfit down here that has had that same little pump guy as their logo for years, many years. He has always looked more like he's spillin oil rather than pump'n mud?

 I ran # 2001*003 a few times, I know 4 different people that owned #3 since I first ran it. It's last owner, Gene Clark, just sold it last summer, a guy from back east bought it so it's still out pump'n somewhere!
