im not sure exactly what your saying there. yes i am confused about that you mean my name godzuki or the name of the thread.

yep woodsy i am all about having a good attitude i was just saying that in general in our field of electricians, the smaller contractors have a harder time keeping busy. with our current economie though its making it evenharder to keep busy as more and more people are trying to do the do it your self method. which is okay if you have a comprehesion of how to do what it is you have to do.
normally with the smaller contractor ive seen smaller jobs that last less time, where as a large contractor has large very long lasting jobs.

if i had to pick i would take the small contractor over the large one just because its more personable where as the large company is more ov you are a number to them not a person. this is all in general to.

The name Godzuki, there's a song by that name. I found it a little too coincidental, that's why I asked.

Hey Mark - lets steal this thread too wanna?? Met a guy at a Speedway last night last name of Hunter.. Said he works with Luna and I asked if he knew ya. Said no.... I was hauling another scoot home - an XT-550 - and he commented on it about all the great mems he had. He was really impressed with its condition and all... Started yapping bikes and talked for an hour or so... Seems he knows LOTS of the same folks as I do - he is/was an old racer and such and ridden with lots of the guys from the Club.. Anyway, I told him to find ya and say heyyyyy!!!
Sound like anyone you know??
Sorry for taking your thread Zuke..

hehehe no problem woodsy, to get to Mweissen's answer, well i have never heard that song.

nope my screen name comes from my 1992 suzuki GSXR 1100 that one of the guys i ride with on the street named my bike back in 94 or 95. kinda like woodsy names bikes, ive also found out since that in one of the godzilla movies godzilla had a son named godzuki. i had actually forgotten all about that but hes right on the movie.

right now this same guy and a bunch of other friends are nameing my new to me street bike i got a few weeks ago, a 01 TL1000R. so far the names for it in the running are these

1. Garden Weasle
2. Tiller
3. troy built
4. Evil Twin
5. wart hog
6. ugly duckling
7. wild weasle
8. toheller
9. moto mole

here is a pick of it and of my old 92 1100 named godzuki

yea i dont like the paint job on it so its going to get repainted here pretty soon, i dont know its just something about the yellow that i dont like, that and the white wheels. well feel free to add to the new name list for the TLR we are trying to find a nice fitting name for it.

although i already have to Evil Twin stickers for the bike, hehehe.

I don't know the name. After I went from Division Manager to an admin puke, I've lost track of people in the plant I ran where Luna is. He may be a newer guy, otherwise I would know him. I'll look for him to come and say hey. I do still get in that plant once in awhile because I have 3 support depts. in that plant. I talked to Luna yesterday actually.
