1
00:00:06,506 --> 00:00:08,041
Ladies and gentlemen,
2
00:00:08,041 --> 00:00:10,110
the story you are about to see is true.
3
00:00:10,643 --> 00:00:12,946
The names have been changed
to protect the innocent.
4
00:00:22,822 --> 00:00:24,190
This is the city.
5
00:00:24,190 --> 00:00:26,326
L.A., I work here.
6
00:00:26,326 --> 00:00:27,761
My name is Highlander.
7
00:00:27,761 --> 00:00:29,929
So does my partner, Johnson.
8
00:00:29,929 --> 00:00:32,065
It was August Hot, muggy.
9
00:00:32,966 --> 00:00:34,134
Just another routine call.
10
00:00:34,134 --> 00:00:35,668
This 503 square miles.
11
00:00:35,668 --> 00:00:38,104
They call the City of Angels.
12
00:00:38,671 --> 00:00:41,307
I'm Highlander, he's Johnson.
13
00:00:41,875 --> 00:00:44,010
We heard you had a floor cup.
14
00:00:44,010 --> 00:00:45,645
Yeah. I mean, floor was just.
15
00:00:45,645 --> 00:00:47,180
It's been flat forever.
16
00:00:47,180 --> 00:00:49,382
I got to know what happened.
17
00:00:49,382 --> 00:00:51,418
All right. You tell us what happened.
18
00:00:51,418 --> 00:00:52,886
Some crazy party.
19
00:00:52,886 --> 00:00:54,954
You guys hopped up on something.
20
00:00:54,954 --> 00:00:56,823
Your husband got a little excited
about the game
21
00:00:56,823 --> 00:00:58,892
and spilled some joy juice on the floor.
22
00:00:58,892 --> 00:00:59,159
I'm sorry.
23
00:00:59,159 --> 00:01:00,960
My husband I got nothing.
24
00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:02,162
Doesn't happen to tell you.
25
00:01:03,363 --> 00:01:05,632
So that's
the story you want to stick with about.
26
00:01:05,632 --> 00:01:07,200
We worked you over.
27
00:01:07,300 --> 00:01:08,735
It's a little aggressive, Hollander.
28
00:01:08,735 --> 00:01:10,203
Let's hear him out.
29
00:01:10,804 --> 00:01:11,004
Yeah.
30
00:01:11,004 --> 00:01:12,672
How do you maintain your flaws, tough guy?
31
00:01:12,672 --> 00:01:14,841
Or do you.
32
00:01:16,309 --> 00:01:18,178
Why don't we start with this?
33
00:01:18,178 --> 00:01:20,146
What did you use to clean those floors?
34
00:01:20,146 --> 00:01:21,014
Based. Right.
35
00:01:21,014 --> 00:01:23,249
Based works, I tell you.
36
00:01:23,583 --> 00:01:24,751
Paste wax.
37
00:01:24,751 --> 00:01:26,286
I'd like the piece. Wax you.
38
00:01:26,286 --> 00:01:28,088
Oh, what does that even mean?
39
00:01:28,088 --> 00:01:31,291
I mean, you haven't even seen me
until Johnson worked you over.
40
00:01:31,324 --> 00:01:33,326
Just answer the questions.
41
00:01:33,460 --> 00:01:35,528
I Now, look,
42
00:01:35,528 --> 00:01:39,499
we're going to get the answer
sooner or later out of you.
43
00:01:39,966 --> 00:01:42,869
You might as well save yourself
the trouble.
44
00:01:43,470 --> 00:01:45,171
If you're not interested
in helping yourself.
45
00:01:45,171 --> 00:01:46,372
And neither am I.
46
00:01:46,372 --> 00:01:48,308
The monkeys on your back, kid.
47
00:01:48,308 --> 00:01:50,910
So if you want help scratching it off,
you better come up and cough
48
00:01:50,910 --> 00:01:51,644
up some answers.
49
00:01:52,745 --> 00:01:55,081
Tell us, Eddie, the meat.
50
00:01:55,081 --> 00:01:56,983
I think it means someone's holding back.
51
00:01:56,983 --> 00:01:58,651
Who's holding back?
52
00:01:59,252 --> 00:01:59,686
I don't know.
53
00:01:59,686 --> 00:02:01,054
It's in the manual.
54
00:02:02,388 --> 00:02:05,792
Did you happen to save any leftover
sanding belts?
55
00:02:06,392 --> 00:02:08,361
Oh, yeah. I got a few in the garage.
56
00:02:08,361 --> 00:02:12,499
I kept a couple so I could my watch
as part of a derby car.
57
00:02:13,266 --> 00:02:15,902
Let's just stick to the facts, sir.
58
00:02:15,902 --> 00:02:17,504
By the way, did he win?
59
00:02:17,504 --> 00:02:19,672
No. No,
he lost interest pretty quick and quit.
60
00:02:21,341 --> 00:02:23,843
Every had trouble with him
before being a quitter.
61
00:02:25,044 --> 00:02:27,213
Listen, son. Want to be a quitter?
62
00:02:27,213 --> 00:02:28,081
What's next?
63
00:02:28,081 --> 00:02:30,416
Homework out. Little too hard
so you don't do it.
64
00:02:30,416 --> 00:02:32,785
Pushups are tough,
so you sit on the couch,
65
00:02:32,785 --> 00:02:35,121
eating a good old bar
gets crumbs everywhere you stare.
66
00:02:35,155 --> 00:02:37,524
The package
all day starts with a plane with.
67
00:02:38,491 --> 00:02:40,059
Next thing you know is you staring at 50.
68
00:02:40,059 --> 00:02:42,695
Does not even know who he is anymore. Oh.
69
00:02:43,763 --> 00:02:45,632
Let's see those belts
70
00:02:48,301 --> 00:02:49,202
I wonder.
71
00:02:49,202 --> 00:02:50,336
Smell this
72
00:02:51,804 --> 00:02:52,605
not my beard.
73
00:02:52,605 --> 00:02:53,873
The belts
74
00:02:55,642 --> 00:02:57,277
What's that smell like?
75
00:02:57,277 --> 00:02:59,546
I'll tell you, it smells like.
Smells like wax.
76
00:02:59,546 --> 00:03:01,347
Damn right it does.
77
00:03:01,381 --> 00:03:02,448
That's your problem.
78
00:03:02,448 --> 00:03:04,851
Employees used to be wax
79
00:03:04,851 --> 00:03:06,452
Moisture can pass through the wax.
80
00:03:06,452 --> 00:03:10,823
Now can buy surface finish
sometimes in which you can be your friend.
81
00:03:11,624 --> 00:03:13,660
And sometimes it's not.
82
00:03:13,860 --> 00:03:16,796
Even know what causes moisture, kid.
83
00:03:16,863 --> 00:03:19,232
With basements, broken gutters,
84
00:03:19,232 --> 00:03:21,601
cracks in the foundation,
local sprinkler system.
85
00:03:22,402 --> 00:03:24,771
On whose fault is that?
86
00:03:24,771 --> 00:03:26,339
Certainly not mine.
87
00:03:26,339 --> 00:03:27,840
Well, how can it be your fault?
88
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:29,075
You're the detective.
89
00:03:29,075 --> 00:03:30,643
That's right, pal.
90
00:03:31,411 --> 00:03:33,546
Listen, you can get away with it forever.
91
00:03:33,646 --> 00:03:36,316
No rain gutters, a plastic
front of the house,
92
00:03:37,116 --> 00:03:40,453
letting a cake quit
when the going got tough.
93
00:03:40,453 --> 00:03:42,455
Knowing that moisture can lead to.
94
00:03:42,455 --> 00:03:43,823
Cut flowers.
95
00:03:43,823 --> 00:03:45,959
Soft cookies and soft graham crackers.
96
00:03:46,593 --> 00:03:50,063
Damp windows you can hardly see
out of my wife's flat hair.
97
00:03:50,897 --> 00:03:52,632
Wet bedsheets.
98
00:03:52,632 --> 00:03:53,933
Crazy mixed up kids.
99
00:03:55,134 --> 00:03:56,402
If I use your restroom.
100
00:03:56,402 --> 00:03:58,371
Yeah. Yeah, I kind of do
101
00:03:59,572 --> 00:03:59,706
what?
102
00:03:59,706 --> 00:04:02,041
She just doesn't happen, pal.
103
00:04:02,041 --> 00:04:03,276
It's like the sweat on your forehead.
104
00:04:03,276 --> 00:04:05,311
Moisture is there. It's under the surface.
105
00:04:05,378 --> 00:04:06,312
It's insidious.
106
00:04:06,312 --> 00:04:09,048
Constantly working, watching and waiting.
107
00:04:09,282 --> 00:04:11,317
It's time it got to a family here in L.A..
108
00:04:11,317 --> 00:04:13,419
Family with the kids came with this.
109
00:04:13,419 --> 00:04:15,722
Poindexter, Poindexter and.
110
00:04:17,056 --> 00:04:19,058
Take responsibility for your home,
and your life.
111
00:04:19,826 --> 00:04:20,593
Starts with water.
112
00:04:20,593 --> 00:04:23,863
And then before you know it, water turns
the mold and alters the hanging around.
113
00:04:23,863 --> 00:04:25,865
Truck stops
wearing someone's yesterdays T-shirt.
114
00:04:25,865 --> 00:04:26,532
To get
115
00:04:29,068 --> 00:04:30,970
We hope this helps.
116
00:04:30,970 --> 00:04:33,473
Oh, that was an easy one, Highlander.
117
00:04:33,473 --> 00:04:35,642
Yeah, this one was an
118
00:04:36,009 --> 00:04:39,779
we should be happy about this report.
119
00:04:57,497 --> 00:04:57,797
Hello.
120
00:04:57,797 --> 00:04:59,232
This is another episode of On the Floor
121
00:04:59,232 --> 00:05:02,602
with Way to Rob Wayne Highlander,
national sales manager for Bona adhesives.
122
00:05:03,036 --> 00:05:07,307
And I'm Rob Johnson from Bona Training.
123
00:05:07,307 --> 00:05:09,542
We got a special guest with us today.
124
00:05:09,542 --> 00:05:12,111
Always a pleasure to have you, sir.
125
00:05:12,578 --> 00:05:16,816
I'll tell you what he is
He could have been on The Tonight
126
00:05:16,816 --> 00:05:19,619
Show, you know, when Johnny Carson
was doing skits and stuff.
127
00:05:20,253 --> 00:05:23,856
So he could have been the go to skit
guy for Johnny Carson.
128
00:05:24,390 --> 00:05:27,660
We called Trey Harrison
with no time and said, hey,
129
00:05:27,660 --> 00:05:29,128
we need to throw a guy to read this.
130
00:05:29,128 --> 00:05:31,230
And he came in cold
and didn't even have to.
131
00:05:31,364 --> 00:05:33,566
He nailed it on the first attempt.
132
00:05:33,566 --> 00:05:35,735
Today. He's a professional man.
133
00:05:36,169 --> 00:05:37,737
He's a professional.
134
00:05:37,737 --> 00:05:40,340
We're lucky enough
to catch up with Ray Harrison,
135
00:05:40,340 --> 00:05:43,142
our adhesive manager
for the Rocky Mountain Territory.
136
00:05:43,710 --> 00:05:48,681
He covers of probably well, for sure,
the biggest swath of America for Bona.
137
00:05:49,248 --> 00:05:51,417
And welcome to the show of three.
138
00:05:51,417 --> 00:05:55,455
Fresh Air guys that I can't, you know,
can't act without some good co-actors.
139
00:05:55,455 --> 00:05:57,390
So I just follow my lead from you guys.
140
00:05:59,225 --> 00:05:59,792
That's it.
141
00:05:59,792 --> 00:06:01,260
Always kissing up.
142
00:06:01,260 --> 00:06:02,995
That's the way to do it, right?
143
00:06:02,995 --> 00:06:03,996
Yeah. Always a kiss up.
144
00:06:03,996 --> 00:06:05,998
No reason to kiss down.
145
00:06:05,998 --> 00:06:07,667
Always kissing up to the big man.
146
00:06:07,667 --> 00:06:09,869
Good. Good. Good one.
147
00:06:09,869 --> 00:06:10,870
Had a boy
148
00:06:13,005 --> 00:06:13,973
Three covers.
149
00:06:13,973 --> 00:06:16,676
The largest part of America
for us on the adhesive side.
150
00:06:16,676 --> 00:06:18,978
And a lot of responsibility.
151
00:06:19,045 --> 00:06:22,081
A lot of distributors
and a lot on your shoulders. Man.
152
00:06:22,081 --> 00:06:24,617
So a very important part of our team.
153
00:06:24,650 --> 00:06:27,620
So thanks for one on there, Trey.
154
00:06:27,620 --> 00:06:28,221
Yeah.
155
00:06:28,221 --> 00:06:31,557
And so we're having a little fun
with this, but this is a
156
00:06:31,591 --> 00:06:36,129
this is actually a true scenario
where somebody had their flaws.
157
00:06:36,129 --> 00:06:38,131
They were face wags forever.
158
00:06:38,131 --> 00:06:40,867
Been down forever and ever and ever.
Floors are nice and flat.
159
00:06:40,867 --> 00:06:43,736
The floors are no issues.
They had to see the finish.
160
00:06:43,770 --> 00:06:46,172
The guys did a beautiful job
sanding the floors,
161
00:06:46,172 --> 00:06:48,207
and then all sudden the floors cut.
162
00:06:48,207 --> 00:06:49,509
Why did they come up?
163
00:06:49,509 --> 00:06:51,911
And so we just had a little fun with that.
164
00:06:51,911 --> 00:06:53,246
And then we thought we were working.
165
00:06:53,246 --> 00:06:56,115
We actually, you know, craft
oil would be a good segway for this
166
00:06:56,115 --> 00:06:59,252
because we'll do the same thing
a lot before is breathe a little bit more
167
00:07:00,553 --> 00:07:03,055
and scenarios where
168
00:07:03,055 --> 00:07:05,458
abortion might be a concern
169
00:07:06,426 --> 00:07:09,629
And I wanted to talk to you, Trey,
while you're on there because also
170
00:07:10,062 --> 00:07:13,833
these are the five 40 obviously
get put on top of a finished floor.
171
00:07:13,833 --> 00:07:15,034
You want to put them on a sub floor
172
00:07:15,034 --> 00:07:18,738
before that starts but that you cover
the Rocky Mountain territory.
173
00:07:19,439 --> 00:07:22,108
There are some dry arid climates in that
in that area.
174
00:07:23,643 --> 00:07:26,512
Are you seeing guys using the five 40.
175
00:07:26,712 --> 00:07:28,681
First of all, we should bring.
176
00:07:28,681 --> 00:07:30,316
But it doesn't though
we should probably mention
177
00:07:30,316 --> 00:07:36,022
what the five 40 is the moisture barrier
for for either wood substrates
178
00:07:36,022 --> 00:07:39,425
or concrete substrates
for for moisture protection.
179
00:07:40,660 --> 00:07:42,528
So I'll ask you, Trey,
180
00:07:42,528 --> 00:07:46,165
are you seeing a lot of guys
using the five 48 in new territory.
181
00:07:46,899 --> 00:07:49,268
So you know it's it's funny because
182
00:07:50,703 --> 00:07:52,605
Colorado, Utah,
183
00:07:52,605 --> 00:07:56,509
Idaho, Wyoming states like that
are considered a high desert climate.
184
00:07:56,509 --> 00:07:58,110
You know, it's very, very dry.
185
00:07:58,110 --> 00:08:00,046
We've got a lot of dry air.
186
00:08:00,046 --> 00:08:03,282
But there's also a lot of these areas
that people don't realize
187
00:08:03,282 --> 00:08:06,219
that have a high water table
and any time that water table is
188
00:08:06,552 --> 00:08:10,189
you know, is pushed up a little bit
because of, you know, seasonal rains,
189
00:08:10,189 --> 00:08:13,459
different kind of flooding,
things like that, there are big issues
190
00:08:14,393 --> 00:08:17,597
we're having we're having a lot of success
with guys with the five
191
00:08:17,597 --> 00:08:21,167
41 of the biggest you know,
one of the biggest things we talk about,
192
00:08:22,101 --> 00:08:24,437
especially in Colorado and some in
193
00:08:24,437 --> 00:08:27,406
Utah, is the curl spaces
194
00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:31,210
Crawl spaces
are usually terribly inventive.
195
00:08:31,210 --> 00:08:34,313
They usually don't have any air movement
and they're just a breeding ground
196
00:08:34,313 --> 00:08:36,949
for moisture even,
you know, we'll will see them even
197
00:08:36,949 --> 00:08:40,520
without any kind of six monthly
or anything even lead over the dirt.
198
00:08:41,153 --> 00:08:44,123
So that's something
that's been really really
199
00:08:44,724 --> 00:08:48,060
beneficial for some of the contractors
because they can
200
00:08:48,060 --> 00:08:51,364
do you know, they can they can roll that
on on their wooden substrate.
201
00:08:52,098 --> 00:08:54,433
That moisture
can still go into the substrate.
202
00:08:54,433 --> 00:08:56,602
But then when it off gases, it's,
203
00:08:56,602 --> 00:08:58,905
you know,
taking off gas at a slow enough rate
204
00:08:58,905 --> 00:09:00,506
that it's not
going to affect those floors.
205
00:09:01,507 --> 00:09:02,275
Well, yeah.
206
00:09:02,275 --> 00:09:02,742
And I don't
207
00:09:02,742 --> 00:09:05,711
care where you are in the country, if
you're in the driest part of the country
208
00:09:06,512 --> 00:09:09,749
everybody deals with, if you don't
any new construction, all the construction
209
00:09:09,749 --> 00:09:13,653
dampness, you know that just moisture
from the construction process.
210
00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:15,454
And that was you know, that was my guess.
211
00:09:15,454 --> 00:09:17,857
My other thing
is, is that you have a new construction.
212
00:09:18,457 --> 00:09:21,827
You know, you've got right now
the hardest thing for people
213
00:09:21,827 --> 00:09:25,464
to get are windows
beautiful systems of garage doors.
214
00:09:25,831 --> 00:09:28,200
When you talk about windows, skylights,
stuff like that,
215
00:09:29,035 --> 00:09:32,405
as the house is being built, they're still
moving on with this construction.
216
00:09:32,405 --> 00:09:33,239
They're going to put the windows
217
00:09:33,239 --> 00:09:36,576
in whenever they get an issue being
is those windows stay open.
218
00:09:36,609 --> 00:09:38,778
Rain, snow, anything comes through.
219
00:09:38,778 --> 00:09:40,513
Now you've got a wet substrate.
220
00:09:40,513 --> 00:09:42,281
Tile source tells us.
221
00:09:42,281 --> 00:09:44,550
I mean, you know,
guys are in there doing tile.
222
00:09:44,750 --> 00:09:47,420
Those stores are just pouring water
over a wood substrate.
223
00:09:47,753 --> 00:09:50,256
The other one that I always joke about is,
you know, bad guys.
224
00:09:50,389 --> 00:09:52,825
Guys are what guys are putting texture
and mud on the wall.
225
00:09:53,426 --> 00:09:55,561
I think those when you buy one,
I think they come with,
226
00:09:55,962 --> 00:10:00,232
you know, pre drilled holes in the tubes
just to make them look that much more.
227
00:10:00,232 --> 00:10:04,003
So when you're talking about that
and going back to the, you know,
228
00:10:04,003 --> 00:10:08,574
the desert climate in the West where it's
really dry, even in the driest areas,
229
00:10:08,574 --> 00:10:12,612
if you needed to bring up woody substrate
down the percentages
230
00:10:12,812 --> 00:10:17,249
by just letting it sit, letting it dry
naturally, you know, 6%, 7%,
231
00:10:17,249 --> 00:10:20,353
we don't test if you have to move
at that much just two to three weeks,
232
00:10:21,253 --> 00:10:21,921
that that's
233
00:10:21,921 --> 00:10:25,625
where you start to really, really mess
with everybody's types of tables,
234
00:10:26,158 --> 00:10:29,595
you know, and destruction,
as everybody probably is listening
235
00:10:29,595 --> 00:10:32,632
knows it's a it's a tight window
when you can come in and do
236
00:10:32,632 --> 00:10:35,601
the floors, you're going to tell the guy
you got to wait three weeks.
237
00:10:35,768 --> 00:10:37,470
That doesn't usually go over very well.
238
00:10:38,704 --> 00:10:41,540
Well, and
you said the the magic word is timetable
239
00:10:42,041 --> 00:10:45,711
is that, you know,
nobody has time anymore.
240
00:10:45,711 --> 00:10:49,315
I mean, is it labor shortage or what
have you for callbacks and problems also.
241
00:10:49,415 --> 00:10:53,085
Is a really good point about their
not being able to get the windows on time
242
00:10:53,085 --> 00:10:54,654
and these different things so.
243
00:10:54,654 --> 00:10:58,157
Well, everybody knows the guidelines
and all these different things
244
00:10:58,157 --> 00:10:59,258
that's involved.
245
00:10:59,258 --> 00:11:02,094
We don't always get perfect scenarios
for for doing floors.
246
00:11:02,094 --> 00:11:03,162
We know that.
247
00:11:03,162 --> 00:11:04,630
And so, you know, it
248
00:11:04,630 --> 00:11:07,466
just it gives it one more thing
and puts on your side of the equation.
249
00:11:08,234 --> 00:11:10,703
It's been it's been also
250
00:11:12,038 --> 00:11:14,240
really nice for our nail go system.
251
00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:16,108
And maybe you can talk about that
a little bit.
252
00:11:16,108 --> 00:11:17,043
Absolutely.
253
00:11:17,043 --> 00:11:20,713
You know do we have a now is just saying
anything over four inches
254
00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:23,916
should get a should have should be done
with an elbow assist.
255
00:11:24,383 --> 00:11:25,418
When you do that
256
00:11:25,418 --> 00:11:28,788
you take away the 50 power roofing cells
or the different underlayment
257
00:11:28,788 --> 00:11:31,824
the paper underlayment that people
are putting under there because you can't
258
00:11:31,857 --> 00:11:33,926
you're not going to glue to that paper
it doesn't do you any good
259
00:11:33,926 --> 00:11:35,261
don't waste and glue
260
00:11:35,261 --> 00:11:39,298
but so now perfect marriage
between the sausages are the quantum
261
00:11:39,398 --> 00:11:44,770
the quantum so the quantum tubes
and the five 40 is for the quantum tubes
262
00:11:44,770 --> 00:11:48,841
and being able to put a moisture
barrier down is that five 45 40.
263
00:11:48,841 --> 00:11:52,178
Also when you talk about going over
a wooden substrate, it's going to give you
264
00:11:52,178 --> 00:11:55,681
the best
most continuous coverage on there.
265
00:11:55,681 --> 00:11:58,184
It's not you know,
you don't have to make sure that all their
266
00:11:58,217 --> 00:12:00,820
all the seams are correct
and all the seams are sealed down.
267
00:12:00,820 --> 00:12:04,490
The stuff that you have to go through
on those papers to make sure that you have
268
00:12:04,490 --> 00:12:08,160
a continuous moisture barrier,
this is a roll on that is going to
269
00:12:08,761 --> 00:12:12,998
you know, it's going to virtually cover
every square inch of that floor.
270
00:12:13,399 --> 00:12:15,134
Hey, so Trey, what's your name again?
271
00:12:15,134 --> 00:12:16,135
The states that you cover?
272
00:12:17,269 --> 00:12:19,071
I cover
273
00:12:19,071 --> 00:12:23,709
Utah, Colorado, Wyoming,
North Dakota, South Dakota, Idaho,
274
00:12:23,709 --> 00:12:29,048
Montana, Iowa,
Nebraska, Kansas, Missouri, Arkansas.
275
00:12:29,749 --> 00:12:32,017
When's the last time you saw the wife
and kids?
276
00:12:32,017 --> 00:12:34,653
Well, she likes it better that way.
277
00:12:34,653 --> 00:12:39,692
And, you know, as the monumental task
of covering those states
278
00:12:39,692 --> 00:12:43,195
that I came to train, I said, you know,
maybe we should take some states away.
279
00:12:43,195 --> 00:12:44,864
You got so much to do.
280
00:12:44,864 --> 00:12:46,632
And he goes, No, I don't.
281
00:12:46,632 --> 00:12:47,700
I don't want any I'm taken away.
282
00:12:47,700 --> 00:12:51,070
I want every one of them
and he does a great job managing them. So
283
00:12:52,238 --> 00:12:56,008
kudos in a really important player
for building our team.
284
00:12:56,008 --> 00:12:57,009
So appreciate it.
285
00:12:57,009 --> 00:12:57,710
One of the best things
286
00:12:57,710 --> 00:13:01,847
about those states is that I do
get to see so many different climates
287
00:13:02,381 --> 00:13:05,451
from the desert to,
you know, going into Saint Louis and stuff
288
00:13:05,451 --> 00:13:07,219
where the river is very prevalent.
289
00:13:07,219 --> 00:13:09,121
There's a lot of water there in the,
290
00:13:09,121 --> 00:13:12,625
you know, the Midwest and up above way
north where it's even drier than Colorado.
291
00:13:12,625 --> 00:13:15,795
So it's nice to have a bunch of different
a bunch of different climates
292
00:13:15,795 --> 00:13:19,665
and different substrates
that are sort of put down well in.
293
00:13:19,698 --> 00:13:21,500
You know,
you bring a lot of knowledge to the table
294
00:13:21,500 --> 00:13:24,170
because you do
see a lot of different scenarios.
295
00:13:24,170 --> 00:13:26,172
You do see a lot of different
296
00:13:26,172 --> 00:13:29,308
you know, if you look at the end
field guidelines, and regional moisture
297
00:13:29,308 --> 00:13:32,611
and everything like that, you get to
and you're a very analytical guy.
298
00:13:33,145 --> 00:13:35,581
I mean, and you you know,
I don't need to tell you,
299
00:13:35,581 --> 00:13:36,415
but you do a good job
300
00:13:36,415 --> 00:13:39,251
studying these things and what have you
you do a lot of great reports
301
00:13:39,418 --> 00:13:43,022
on on your findings. And and so anyhow,
302
00:13:44,557 --> 00:13:45,825
appreciate you making time with us today.
303
00:13:45,825 --> 00:13:49,461
We have a little fun, but get away
from our daily thing for a little bit.
304
00:13:49,461 --> 00:13:52,565
So appreciate you making the time tray and
305
00:13:55,034 --> 00:13:56,402
thanks for being with us.
306
00:13:56,402 --> 00:13:59,972
Any time before we get going,
I got I got to tell you this, and I swear
307
00:13:59,972 --> 00:14:02,808
this is true and this still blows my mind.
308
00:14:03,876 --> 00:14:06,312
Judy, went to California to visit her mom.
309
00:14:06,612 --> 00:14:10,249
You know what she's going through
and she's going on for a weekend.
310
00:14:10,249 --> 00:14:14,019
And as she was leaving the stray cat,
the gray and white stray
311
00:14:14,019 --> 00:14:18,624
cat came walking up with a limp so bad
it couldn't put his front right part
312
00:14:18,657 --> 00:14:19,992
down on the ground.
313
00:14:19,992 --> 00:14:22,127
You know, that's that's hard
to watch a cat that can't, but,
314
00:14:22,228 --> 00:14:24,029
you know, especially a stray.
You know what I mean?
315
00:14:24,029 --> 00:14:25,998
Shovel time. Shovel time.
316
00:14:25,998 --> 00:14:27,032
No, no, no.
317
00:14:27,032 --> 00:14:29,568
Okay, so I looked
we both thought at the same time,
318
00:14:29,568 --> 00:14:31,470
and she was, you know,
getting ready, put a suitcase in the car.
319
00:14:31,470 --> 00:14:36,008
And she looked at me, she goes, Oh, Wayne,
and I said, I'll take care of it.
320
00:14:36,008 --> 00:14:37,343
I'll take it to the vet.
321
00:14:37,343 --> 00:14:38,844
Just just, you know, get on your way.
322
00:14:38,844 --> 00:14:40,079
You know, I'll take care of it.
323
00:14:40,079 --> 00:14:42,448
So she goes, I'll get a cat carrier out
for the garage for you.
324
00:14:42,748 --> 00:14:43,015
Okay?
325
00:14:44,149 --> 00:14:44,783
So you
326
00:14:44,783 --> 00:14:47,219
ever try to put a wild animal in a
in a cat carrier?
327
00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:49,655
You never.
328
00:14:49,655 --> 00:14:51,390
Know. Yeah, well, you shouldn't.
329
00:14:51,390 --> 00:14:52,424
So I couldn't.
330
00:14:52,424 --> 00:14:54,093
I could not get it into the thing.
331
00:14:54,093 --> 00:14:56,595
I mean, it's feral,
but it would let me pet it, you know?
332
00:14:56,595 --> 00:14:57,463
I mean, it was friendly,
333
00:14:57,463 --> 00:14:59,932
but picking it up, putting
the thing is another, another story.
334
00:15:00,599 --> 00:15:05,237
So I managed to get into my truck,
335
00:15:05,237 --> 00:15:08,073
though, and I knew, you know,
so I drove it to the vet.
336
00:15:08,507 --> 00:15:09,842
You know, he's gone crazy.
337
00:15:09,842 --> 00:15:14,246
He's never been in a car before, I'm sure,
but but he had Dodge Ram rebel.
338
00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:17,516
But so I knew
339
00:15:18,317 --> 00:15:20,853
as soon as I open that door, he's
going to want to get right.
340
00:15:20,853 --> 00:15:25,424
I mean, I know that so I carefully
open a door, and as careful as I was,
341
00:15:25,424 --> 00:15:30,596
as soon as he turned into a mountain lion
and just ran over my face to get out
342
00:15:31,397 --> 00:15:33,632
and he takes up the field
and he takes off, and he's gone now.
343
00:15:33,666 --> 00:15:36,869
Okay, so Judy's gone.
344
00:15:37,169 --> 00:15:38,504
The cat is gone.
345
00:15:38,504 --> 00:15:40,806
And I don't know
what am I going do with this cat?
346
00:15:40,806 --> 00:15:41,640
I got to go back to work.
347
00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:43,809
It's like eight, eight in the morning.
348
00:15:43,809 --> 00:15:47,112
So that night, I go out looking for it,
bring again a cat food.
349
00:15:47,112 --> 00:15:50,282
I go look for the cat and fight
the next day.
350
00:15:50,849 --> 00:15:54,153
I get up early before work starts, right
as it turns daylight.
351
00:15:54,153 --> 00:15:56,121
I went out there
and I look for that cat, right?
352
00:15:56,121 --> 00:15:59,358
I put signs up missing
cat reward, gray cat,
353
00:15:59,591 --> 00:16:02,861
front paw you know,
I called the veterinary.
354
00:16:02,861 --> 00:16:04,563
I said, hey, if only.
355
00:16:04,563 --> 00:16:06,732
Somebody could have taken a picture.
356
00:16:06,732 --> 00:16:08,467
You put up cat signs.
357
00:16:08,467 --> 00:16:11,370
That would have been
that would have been awesome.
358
00:16:11,670 --> 00:16:16,775
I was so annoyed because here's and here's
why I felt bad because I screwed him up.
359
00:16:17,343 --> 00:16:19,445
I took him out of his routine,
you know what I mean?
360
00:16:19,445 --> 00:16:21,981
I even though he had a bad path,
361
00:16:21,981 --> 00:16:25,017
I took him and I moved him to a different
part of the world, you know what I mean?
362
00:16:25,250 --> 00:16:28,320
So I, too, I felt bad
because I was the one that screwed him up.
363
00:16:29,054 --> 00:16:31,290
So and Judy Collins said, you know what?
364
00:16:31,290 --> 00:16:32,458
What what happened with the vet?
365
00:16:32,458 --> 00:16:35,627
Say, well, I said the vet said, you know,
366
00:16:35,995 --> 00:16:38,664
pull this thorn out of its thing
and, you know, whatever.
367
00:16:38,664 --> 00:16:39,932
And it's fine.
368
00:16:40,199 --> 00:16:42,201
So she wouldn't worry about it, right?
369
00:16:42,434 --> 00:16:43,268
Mm. But
370
00:16:45,371 --> 00:16:46,939
on day four, Rob,
371
00:16:46,939 --> 00:16:50,442
that damn cat was outside of the back door
as God is my witness.
372
00:16:51,076 --> 00:16:55,581
And it looked like it never a since
since I fed it last you know what I mean?
373
00:16:55,881 --> 00:16:57,449
How did it know to get back.
374
00:16:57,449 --> 00:16:59,685
It is a it's a mile and a half.
375
00:16:59,685 --> 00:17:02,788
How and how is it possible
that that cat found its way back
376
00:17:03,689 --> 00:17:05,791
and I heard dogs will do that.
377
00:17:05,791 --> 00:17:06,392
I've heard that.
378
00:17:06,392 --> 00:17:09,862
But I'm absolutely blown out of my mind
and grateful that he came back.
379
00:17:10,562 --> 00:17:14,466
So how many cat stories
do you think we've done?
380
00:17:14,466 --> 00:17:15,367
On this show?
381
00:17:15,367 --> 00:17:17,970
I don't know, man. Look,
I got nothing else going on in life, okay?
382
00:17:17,970 --> 00:17:21,273
We got I bet we get a good 20 cat stories.
383
00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:22,474
Yeah, well.
384
00:17:23,442 --> 00:17:24,510
And I don't know a cat.
385
00:17:24,510 --> 00:17:26,011
So they're all
386
00:17:26,378 --> 00:17:28,547
Islander cats or I'm seeing a book.
387
00:17:28,547 --> 00:17:30,315
I'm seeing like a Christmas
book or something.
388
00:17:30,315 --> 00:17:31,683
No. I've just.
389
00:17:31,683 --> 00:17:33,952
Highlanders, Highlanders, cats, stories.
390
00:17:34,386 --> 00:17:36,722
I'm not necessarily even a cat guy, but,
you know,
391
00:17:38,190 --> 00:17:38,957
okay.
392
00:17:39,391 --> 00:17:39,992
You just.
393
00:17:39,992 --> 00:17:41,693
You're definitely a cat guy.
394
00:17:41,693 --> 00:17:43,862
I know you say that. You're not a cat guy.
395
00:17:44,563 --> 00:17:44,830
Right?
396
00:17:44,830 --> 00:17:46,598
You're a cat guy you love.
397
00:17:46,598 --> 00:17:47,800
Nothing wrong with that.
398
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:51,737
Okay, so we have some of the bottom
line is the cat made its way back
399
00:17:51,737 --> 00:17:53,472
about a mile and a half back to the house.
400
00:17:53,472 --> 00:17:54,339
On three legs,
401
00:17:54,339 --> 00:17:57,876
because the other one, he was so damn,
you couldn't touch the ground with it.
402
00:17:58,544 --> 00:17:59,611
So, you know, that's.
403
00:17:59,611 --> 00:18:01,980
Too bad they didn't take that leg off.
404
00:18:01,980 --> 00:18:04,216
That'd be cool. That I would love that.
405
00:18:04,683 --> 00:18:05,551
I'm not a cat guy,
406
00:18:05,551 --> 00:18:08,220
but if I could have a three legged cat,
I'd have a three legged cat.
407
00:18:09,054 --> 00:18:10,456
So, believe it or not, I'm not.
408
00:18:10,456 --> 00:18:13,025
I'm really, truly not a cat guy.
409
00:18:13,025 --> 00:18:13,625
You are.
410
00:18:13,625 --> 00:18:19,498
You know, look, we get we get 38
stories on on the floor of cat stories.
411
00:18:19,498 --> 00:18:21,600
So look, you're a cat guy.
412
00:18:22,101 --> 00:18:22,835
I said I don't have a life.
413
00:18:22,835 --> 00:18:23,068
You know.
414
00:18:23,068 --> 00:18:26,438
What? It's not that you're a cat guy here.
415
00:18:26,705 --> 00:18:29,641
If people don't understand
that, you're squishy, aren't you?
416
00:18:30,576 --> 00:18:31,777
You're squishy.
417
00:18:31,777 --> 00:18:32,644
Yeah. Yeah.
418
00:18:32,644 --> 00:18:38,417
You got a soft spot for
animals and, like, Tray and I
419
00:18:41,019 --> 00:18:44,056
so. You know, God, God bless animals, man.
420
00:18:44,056 --> 00:18:45,891
I mean, when he came,
what got me when he's he came
421
00:18:45,891 --> 00:18:48,160
back is like,
I'm the guy who screwed him up.
422
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:50,796
I'm the guy that put him into this vehicle
and drove him off.
423
00:18:51,063 --> 00:18:52,998
And when he came back,
he still trusted me.
424
00:18:52,998 --> 00:18:53,799
You know what I mean?
425
00:18:53,799 --> 00:18:55,868
I mean, I. Yes,
he probably had no place else to go.
426
00:18:56,435 --> 00:18:58,403
But he was hungry, so. Yeah, he. Was.
427
00:18:58,403 --> 00:18:59,171
And he was hungry.
428
00:18:59,171 --> 00:19:02,508
So but, you know, I just
I don't know any else, so.
429
00:19:02,508 --> 00:19:05,210
There you go. You're a cat guy. It's
all right. Thank you.
430
00:19:05,244 --> 00:19:07,646
You can admit it. You're an animal guy.
431
00:19:07,646 --> 00:19:10,516
All right, everybody,
I appreciate you listening.
432
00:19:10,682 --> 00:19:13,752

of On the Floor with Wayne and Rob.
