Get the partying out of your system while your young. Just dont kill yourself doing it. In a few years you actually have to grow up and be responsible for yourself and possibly a family.

Yes you are insane, I can write a note to your doctor if you like. [laugh
Thanks Tim, I hope that you can continue with Lodge. I enjoy it thoroughly.

I heard about it, had to miss the game for the Degree.

And yup.... Certainly insane... Certified too!

Bro Blake, good to hear on your brother's MM degree, and congratulations on being elected WM for the coming year.

Been down that road myself, just finished two years in the chair, now I'm IPM and helping the next guy along.

Weather is weather, ch ch ch changes by the minute. Still not cold though. Snow only, and not very much.

Chaikwa, the ford runs like a ford does... barely at best. I've spent more time working on this thing in 20,000 km, than I have in 250,000 on my dodge, 300,000 on my toyota, and over 600,000 on my 85 GMC service truck. Ford, we don't just build trucks... we build character.

Things are as they is, or is as they are, or perhaps what will be may come to pass.

BTW, don't take the "people and chaikwa" comment personally. Chaikwa definitely falls into the "person" category.

Enjoy the day, seize it, bind it, spank it like it should be good to you... IbettershutupandgettoworkPind

Very strange how this happens every year.
Big baby!!!!!!!! You know I am really crying for you - - you know that - - right??? Man, that speedo felt good in the jaccuzzi this morning. Wow, that was nice. Still quite dark out. So nice. Relax, enjoy the outdoors, bright moon, cup of java. Oh well, guess we don't have room for everyone down here, so I better shut up.

More ph00,

tell 'em you are leaving for a little fiver trip too...just don't say when you are coming back less house pest..er guests then.

well Blake, ya already knew where they were going with that. (actually) my friend's wife was huge. no clothes fit huge in the 80s. some medical problems caused treatment, lost weight in hospital , had to do the liquid diet thing, and lost phenominal amount of weight scary quick. bombshell. men askign her out, whistling. stuff she never ever experienced. bad scene man. Be glad there is a lot more CARE to go with health care. God's Best to you and yours through this wonderful , healthy journey you embark./If you are good at the doctor's, I promise I will send you a toy welder.

Pind- what is barrack? fish? yeah, after 86 ya can't touch a ford. good job on the build, sad way to have to do it....grumble... makes for a long er day.

LD, yes. be responsible, drink once to slobber state. toss your cookies. have to understand that once, so you will not do it twice. never-- nev er ---- be in a vehicle,plus or minus 6 hours, around anyone drinking. not you. not now.

but you should go to a strip club once to see that everyday normal girls can make a living doing things a future wife will never do. nuff said. if you bring home a very tattooed, multi-pierced, narely dressed girl for momma to see- she will kill you. take that to the bank. ok, life's lessons learned.

all of out advice on waffle houses, sorry eric.

Congrats Lodge men! ack ack a dak is what my friend's wife says. he is Past master. we just look for the buffalo hats ala fred flintstone. j/k

chaikwa- be safe. if you can't be safe. then be quiet. heheheheh
remember, joisey has wanted posters too.

stainless steel boiler has spider cracks. old boiler, time for it to do this. not looking forward to paying for a new one but at least it will be carbon. got to check into that more.
soooooo, old boiler being torn down. switched to propane heat system (we have two) and boiler put laying DOWN for better welds, in the barn, as it tried to snow and would just rather be windy now. beautiful 29 degrees though. like this time of year.

had three deer come look in the livign room patio doors. just as hubby reached up to turn a lamp on. bout sent him out of his skivvies.
laughing is not allowed in my house now.
he went out hunting this AM. banging around on the boiler now.
I am 'plugged in' for some nerve damage stuff. walk around with two electric leads coming out of the body, using a small system I can control. want to get some battery powered Christmas lights to walk around with now. REALLY get the townspeople talking. heheh (like uncle Fester) got to have a sense of humor...... my friends are saying I am the update to blow up dolls......what are friends for

heidi ON!!!
Heidi off
heidi ON!!!
like a bad neon sign.....

Don't bet on 6hours being enough if you're drinking enough to make you do the technicolor yawn. I've booked in plenty of guys who thought they had slept it off enough. 8hrs later they were still over the legal limit. I feel bad cause they tried to do the right thing.

Last time I had to see one I had the shrink talking to himself after the appointment was over. Probably thought I was crazy.


Evening DTR, did a little work for the farmer today. Loaded a few semis full of corn.

Got a call from mom, her and dad decided to have their rottie put down tonight. He had bone cancer and over the last 2 weeks he quit eating, could hardly walk, and wouldn't go to poop or pee. He was 10 yrs old, they got him when I was 16. He was a good dog and is alot better off now than being in pain. Dad took it pretty hard since Bronx was his buddy and shadow everywhere. I went with mom to the vet to get him in and out of the car and incase she wasn't good to drive home.

Everything else is going pretty well here. Wife should be home from work soon so I think we're gonna go out to dinner tonight. I don't feel like making anything and she said she didn't either.
