This space for Rent

Actually it was a double post but has to be good for something.

That's not the kind of air people are attracted to.

Hey, I use those other "toys" (as you call them) for a side business that provides a needed service to the community.

Hmmm, might be able to use this camera too.

Ok, instructions say to re-boot computer. I can do that.

1) Shouldn't this go in the Classifieds instead of in Other?

2) Why are you renting out the empty space in your head?

Excuse me for breathing!!

Im trying to do three things at once here. I was trying to upload a test video to YooHoo (it didnt want my 9Gig file), Im trying to fix our doorbell (Trooper showed up and threw rocks at my window because a neighbor thought I was dead cause the stupid thing is broken,, and most important---I am battling with a major shrew infestation. They may be responsible for the door bell. I got major issues going on here and Im starting to freak!! To top it off, if my wife finds out about the snoring video I am dead.
So take that to your classified other empty space in my head and------

Uh,,, nothing to see here, everythings fine, see!!!! Ive got a shrew under this neat foil cap and I can hear door bells. Life is good--please dont take me away I have things to do and the voices have been helping me but yet I cant get this embeded video to work

Bark... you scared everyone off!

Mornin. Coffee is on, just regular stuff... I'm not good at making the foo, so someone else can. I'd leave some breakfast, but it's just oatmeal.

Hope everyone has a great day today. Should get off early... we'll see.

That does NOT mean to kick it Bark. Just an FYI.




THURSDAY, DECEMBER 29th:

1812 - The USS Constitution won a battle with the British ship HMS Java about 30 miles off the coast of Brazil. Before Commodore William Bainbridge ordered the sinking of the Java he had her wheel removed to replace the one the Constitution had lost during the battle.

1813 - The British burned Buffalo, NY, during the War of 1812.

1837 - Canadian militiamen destroyed the Caroline, a U.S. steamboat docked at Buffalo, NY.

1845 - U.S. President James Polk and signed legislation making Texas the 28th state of the United States.

1890 - The U.S. Seventh Cavalry massacred over 400 men, women and children at Wounded Knee Creek, SD. This was the last major conflict between Indians and U.S. troops. (probably because there weren't any Indians left after that cowardly attack!)

1940 - During World War II, Germany began dropping incendiary bombs on London.

1972 - Following 36 years of publication, the last weekly issue of "LIFE" magazine hit the newsstands. The magazine later became a monthly publication.

1975 - A bomb exploded in the main terminal of New York's LaGuardia Airport. 11 people were killed.

1997 - Hong Kong began killing 1.25 million chickens, the entire population, for fear of the spread of 'bird flu'.

1998 - Khmer Rouge leaders apologized for the 1970s genocide in Cambodia that claimed 1 million lives.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:
Don’t be irreplaceable; if you can’t be replaced, you can’t be promoted.

I learned yesterday that you can buy an attachment for the Keurig machine that allows you to put in your own tea, coffee or ph00 so you don't hafta buy the expensive little cups. I just made a special mixture up for PhiverBob, let's see how he likes it!

I've learned a lot over the years from all of you and can really appreciate the truck knowledge I've gained and the chuckles and laughs I have from some of the good natured ribbing and teasing I read here. It's the one site I visit regularly.

A person can learn about beer, great neighbors, the weather from Florida to Alaska and even in Europe and Canada. We have those that have served their country and those that are serving currently (my thanks to both groups here). You can hear about personal events the good and the bad, babies being born, a new dog, a new house, a new job, the list goes on.

Anyway, maybe tomorrow if I wake up early enough - I can start the pooo.



Dave
Welcome Dave

Bark, whats the price on that space....

Nathan, keep your head. In all situations a cool head prevails.

Scott, sorry to hear about the fires. We have had a rash of fires here in town lately, but luckily, no injuries.

Mark, ummmm.... Hey buddy! How ya doin?



Morning Yall.

Been busy with the family. Enjoying time at home.

Was going to buy the wife a new vehicle yesterday. We went look at the Jeep Grand Cherokee's. Awesomely nice vehicle, price on it was right but they wanted me to take a 7k hit on her Durango. I just kinda giggled and left with the salesman following me asking "what'd I do"



One would think that after selling me 5 new vehicles that he would know me better than that.


Yall behave now.

JWBM, sounds like you're out on a fun trip! Don't spend all your money in one place lol Enjoy for sure

Yeah, feeling better. Guess it was just sinus hollows got all wierded with pressure. We had 'warm' day and I guess that was enough of a weather change to kick my tail. When in the world did I get weak? Weather never use to affect me.

Could you explain that in more detail please? Does youtube make them public if you don't access your account for a specified period of time?
