ED, good job by the way getting the thread back to a name I can recognize. No flying lizards, stale coffee, and all that garbage.

Wow, someone actually listened to me... too bad I was jus' kiddin' when I said that!

No, I'm jus' kiddin' about jus' kiddin'. NOW, I mean. Not then. I wasn't kiddin' then. Well, I was kiddin' about the kiddin', but not the other. Got it?

Chris, I'm gonna take that whistle an' shove it in the f00-f00 juice so it'll taste nasty, then you won't wanna put it in your mouth again! That oughta keep things quiet in here.

Restrooms are clean, the coffee pot's next!

Oh yeah, stellar job. That's why we have a whopping 18 posts, (including this one), after a whole day.

Might help to have a few *too!

Monday already ?? Hmm .... doesn't feel like it yet, must be something going on that I don't know about yet .

Made a rapid trip to Va. Beach to drop the family off at some friends for the week and then back to N.C. for work this morning .... only to find out that our parts aren't in yet. Get to hang out until the FEDEX van rolls up .

Coffee is pretty good this morning ... someone forgot to unplug the pot on Friday didn't they ?? Just the right consistancy now !!

Have a good un and put in a good word to the Man upstairs for our troops in harms way.

Cheers,
PISTOL

The coffee is right because a certain someone is tdy to chadland.

Too dang much cheerfulness around here. Better get to it, or I'll be the object of derisive remarks....... Catch you on the flip side.

Be safe.

On to swisse mocha and sitting on the porch at 6AM, watching a small black bear (150 pounds or so) swipe Koi outta my Japanese garden pond......
He is not attacking me so i can't shoot him, but I WANT TO!!

I am tired but responsibility rears its ugly head....good to see the normalcy here!! Thanks shovel, NCDave, Davey two eyes Shortround, Pistolwhipt- and the beloved jan i tor who thinks he gets paid by the gripe.

Clean up in aisle five BTW, something about crushed sprinkles and dumpster grease...

REDLEG! had some great walleye and German food this Sunday!! brings back memories! good fun to you on your monster build! They opened up a Northern tool store about 70 miles North of me- course I had to check it out!! great prices on tools i don't need best Homer Simpson voice 'ahhhhh Toooools!

I thought you knew the law.... all you have to do is yell "COMEING RIGHT FOR US!!" right before you shoot the bear.

A fine good mornin, gang. Looks like someone really cleaned this place up - - even the coffee is fresh. I tried the regular since "SOMEONE" emptied the foo foo and didn't replenish - - not bad considering the slight taste of diesel.

Hey Don - - thought of you this weekend - - having a wonderful baked cod dinner with friends and thought Don would go wild over this one - - extremely well prepared. About time to fire up them jigs and start bringing in the salmon, isn't it? Wish I could be back up in Alaska right about now.

Gotta go - - I hear the pool calling. See ya,

Bob

Mornin' all,
Houston:Mostly Cloudy 85°F (29°C)

ChrisR, what you got home from work and figgered eveyone should be up in the morning early?. Guard that whistle, someone is going to try to hide it, or run over it.

Shovelhead, enjoy the motivational posters you hang up in the breakroom by the water cooler. Do need the **** donut sprinkles marking the way, so some people can find the breakroom. Kinda like lead in lights at some airports.

No haven't heard the "Joel don't make the coffee story." So DD4x4 it is up for the retelling, always like a good story.

Wannabe, when is bear stew on the menu? Only fair, bear eats your fish, you eat bear. Balance of nature and all.

Eyeball is doing fine, taking the tetracylene, eye drops, and hot compresses like the doctor ordered. Get checked on Wed the 18, and if all is well have the cateract surgury on Tues the 24. It will be my right eye. Left eye had retinal bleeding a few years ago, and just have a little periferial vision.

Waiting for an eletrician to show up and rewire a bathroom light, that the wires corroded and separated. Landloard don't want us to do any wiring.

Hummmm, sun shining, but I hear thunder from the loud cloud somewhere.

Compuer still having problems. I have't been able to fix it.

Momma spider is doing good, eats about 4 flys a day. Haven't seen her younguns.

Shirley just popped in to pick up her cell phone, so we had lunchn munchn time. Nothing exotic, she, tunna fish salad sammich, me, nuked a left over ratburger from yesterday, chips, and watermellon.

have a good un and be safe out there.
