THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:
Why do they put Braille dots on the keypad of the drive-up ATM?

Coffee's on.

 

Morning Scott. Thanks for starting the breakroom and the coffee. Sure is a sleepy bunch here today. Where is everybody? Yeah, I know, still in bed. Lazy bums!

Nothing to report from Paradise, not even any rain.

BTW, whenever I write 'breakroom' my spell check kicks it out. It wants two words.

Going to kick back and relax for a bit before we head out for church and then a nice Mexican lunch with friends.

 

RISE AND SHINE!

Garbage can lids are clanging against the dragons head, Pho0o pot is gurgling and Stan is on his perch. Could not ask for a better start to the breakroom.
Especially with me here helping Scott clean up in here.

Why is/are there wool fibers on the toilet seat?

Enjoy the day, eh. My last day of a 12 day stretch. WOO HOO.



STaN re: BreAkr0om BrEak Ro0m...I noticed that too.

 

Hey boy, you need glasses or something? That is NOT me. I don't perch and never have.

 

Highlight 'breakroom'. Right click. Select 'Add to Dictionary'. Problem solved!

 

I looked up and there was Stan. What else can I say? Ok, there was Stan in his recliner on the roof.

Mornin. Sorry I was UA all last week. I'm on vacation, supposedly. In San Diego now, I've been all over the place, going to Vegas this week...

Scott, nice sheep thing... lol

 

Hi. Tired and sore. Been a long week.

 

Oil & fuel filter changed; 9 gals of used oil to the haz-mat drop, Jr turned up to SW3, my brush riflestock (finally) inletted properly with Acraglas drying on the recoil pad install...now sippin' a cup of coffee wondering if Momma is going to wake up in time to go to church and half-way hoping that she doesn't

Good day all

 

Morning gang - - oh yeh, afternoon by now. Plane out of Aruba was late arriving, so going out was late - - barely made connection in Atlanta but the luggage is probably west of the Rockies or something. GGGGRRRRR Made it into bed about 1:30 or so - - slept in a bit this morning. Nice time, gorgeous condo about 4 or so steps from the jaccuzzi overlooking the pool, great food in the Tiki hut style restraurant on the beach. Neat place, but was definitely getting warm in the afternoons.

Scotty - - congrats man - - passed the course and the anniversary. Good man, I don't care what Punta Dunta says -- you are all right.

OK, gotta go catch up - - be good -- or careful - - or both.

Bob

 

Yikes. He's gotta be careful he doesnt marry a distant relative.

 

Getting transferred to the County lockup?

That's so not going to feel good when she gets back.

Ewe readiness training.

It's alternating between working and not working. If you're lucky you'll have an AC Delco unit and like Tim said, you can step up. Don't go smaller than 110 amp.


Congrats on life changes.

Afternoon all.

 

The one that's on there is a 200 amp unit. And it's BIG. Which means EXPENSIVE.


Yup, X 2! Now he can concentrate on the MID life changes!

Evening all.

 

Back in Yuma... depressing....

 

You have a beautiful wife and a great family... what's to be depressed about? I N V U !
