DTR Watercooler and Breakroom 06.27.10-07.03.10

Evening everyone, got the new breakroom started for you all! Got a couple fresh pots of Gulf Crude, tea, ph00, and sweet tea ready. Bob, don't worry, the ph00 doesn't have any frilly things in it this time.

The FIL got remarried this afternoon, had a good time at the reception and the ceremony.

Evenin' All! Whose pulling the all nighter tonight?

Raining outside again tonight. Pretty hard too. Sunny and 75* during the day but raining at night.... Not a bad deal. Keeps my water bill down for the yard.

Evenin, gents. Just checked in to make sure that the new one got started.

Good day today. Started out by taking the kids out to the desert and shooting the BB gun, helping the preacher move, getting in the pool, drinking a beer or two, and having some good friends over. Gonna finish off the one I have, and hit the hay. New week is coming up fast.

Knee is screaming. I'll live. Just weak, that's all.

Good church service this morning. Good lunch out with the blonde and SIL. Now to relax a bit. Too bad USA blew the game yesterday. They did good up to that one.

OK, gone - -

Sorry buddy... ((( I don't think it would make it. She took the leftover steak we had the other night, sliced it really thin, and fried it in some butter, then put two kinds of cheeses on it, with a busted yoke egg. Topped it all off with some real mayo. Mmmm...
