Interesting story. Those guys never give up. Wasting the court's time.

I saw the footage of the headache ball in action on the news and the interview with the crane operator Mr. Davis. Kudos to Geppert for getting the buidlings down fast and clean over the weekend. Awesome job.

We have the 1st phase of the project. We being Geppert Bros., Inc.
2nd Phase of demolition still remains unawarded.

Deacon is a wonderful operator. I'll have to upload some shots of him and Hawkey at work on the cranes
