I think there's a picture of one on your home page.

Duckboy, I think bbq might qualify. It's much better than hillbilly road kill.

Nothing like that... see I completely missed your post last night.... it was a long day.... a lot of people (not on here) wasted a lot of my time and by that late I was frustrated anyway.

Good morning to all! Much better day, everyone showing up when they said they would. I even made it to the gym this morning.

Ya'll make'n me hungry with all the turky talk! Not helping the workout much.

I'm kinda like heavytruck- I would like to quote more than one post when posting replies. I've tried the "multi-post" but not sure how it works can someone edumacate me?

Well you have to excuse me using such a lamo quote as the first one here, but it was close so I grabbed it....

After you hit the multi quote and then the quote button you will be directed to a new screen which shows something like this...

If you type here the text will be placed within the quote window

If you choose to edit within the quote to remove unwanted text just be sure that the beginning - [.QUOTE=raymond21;2636726] and the ending [./QUOTE] remain in the text stream and you will have a perfectly formatted and professional looking response although some do not warrant such time and effort.

P.S. I added the "." inside the quote "[ ]" so it would not create a quote window. it should not be there when you are editing.

HTH

Oh ya,

if you don't get it on the first try, top had to stand over Rick with a whip and a teaspoon of peanut butter to get him to learn it. From what Larry told me it took rick quite a while. I think he just likes peanut butter and was faking it personally. So don't feel bad if it takes a couple of edits.

Do yourself a favor and just get a meg or two. It will really help things out.

I only wish it were the case but the truth is a far more disturbing picture to bring to mind......... he kept mumbling something about whip me! please Whip me ...... I still have nightmares of the whole ugly scenario

Its a little different than that one. Also, you can send styrofoam any way you want. Wooden box, bag, corrugated box and styrofoam box to name a few.

Gee wiz, what did I do... I sent up a post, made a typo, some guy in NM made a comment on it, then it was all over. The pounced like a couple of mice on stinky cheese.

Really I was minding my own business, just trying to stir the pot a little

I'm innocent - THEY ARE THE GUILTY ONES!!!!

Afternooner all!

Just finnished a lunch of moose burritos and mountain dew. Very tasty.

I'm playing IT guru with the computer. I think I got all the magic smoke back inside it where it belongs. Gonna rotate the tires and change the oil on it as well. Got a few more bugs to work out on it and maybe it'll last for a few more years. The 1TB external drive should help. We'll see. My old laptop was supposedly HUGE at 1gb. Never come close to filling it up. Yeah right.
