Hey, I just noticed. In my pic, you can see half my belt buckle. THAT is a huge milestone.

Might start a new weight loss gauge. The "How Much of My Belt Buckle Can You See" gauge.


Mark, gonna get them pics for you in a bit. Where my truck sits its right in the sun and its washing out all the shots. Gonna let it set a bit and snap a few.

Take your time, buddy.

I am suddenly feel depressed. Terribly. Not sure why. Maybe it has something to do with obama care. I'm not even sure anyone knows what is going to happen. Hope I still have a job.

I am with you guys - - totally bummed out tonight. I kept hoping there would be enough AMERICANS on the left side of the aisle that understood what liberty and the PURSUIT of happiness is all about. Since when is happiness handed to you - - go for it? I have resolved I will be involved in this next election like never before in my life - - many people's head HAVE TO ROLL. I will support those that believe in a free America - - regardless of the party.

Oh well, onward and upward. Hi gang. Busy Sunday down here and wow, did it ever rain. We had some pounders and lots of fireworks - - quite a day. Hopefully it will be dry enough to finish the cut back on the vegetation around here and go get mulch, kill weeks, clean up and make the place look purdy again - - sure grubby right now.

OK, gone - - going to join wifey for some togetherness.

Bob

Maybe we should go stay with stan...

At work. Evening shift is on. Luckilly, I have an extreme leftie here at work with me, and another guy that is super far to the right... I told them that they were not going to fight about it... I did not want to hear it.

It's going to be a long night.

Hey all,

One of those good news bad news days. Congrats blake, you lose anymore and were gonna have to take a couple of letters off your name, they'll have holes in em and be behind that belt buckle of yours.

I guess that is the only way a name like Bla could be good!!!

I didn't think military guys were allowed to talk politics on duty...

Learn something new everyday I guess.

Unless of course you have retired from the 'corp' ()

Being the fair and open minded supervisor that you are...........I can see you allowing them to have an open and frank debate, allowing each to express their opinions and declare their allegiance to their perspective parties, as long as they held their comments to one word each. Say it with me, left, right, left, right and a marching we will go. I wonder how far they can walk in an 8 hour shift?

Your stakes get bigger, and you get smaller...

Wonder what your horsepower increase will be?

There will be one who will go a long way, the other one will wait for a government program to do it for them!!!

Doubt it increases any. I wanted to put another set on the '90. The 5's look perfect on it. But as big as the cab is on the mega, it needed just a little more.


Mark, here is a shot of the 5's and the 6's sitting side by side. I think your rig would look great with a set of em. Id go 6's if I were you.

Um... no. I have 3 small children at home that I have to babysit, I'm not going to do it at work. I don't give a what their opinion is, and I don't want to hear it. I'm ticked off enough as is it...

I think the righty guy is gonna crack before the night is over.

Currently eating a steak sub from subway... it is awesome. Honey oat, steak, bacon, lettuce, tomato, banana pepers, black olives, mayo and red wine vinagar.... Mmmm....
