Ouch! Wal Mart was lookin' better than the Bills....
oh man, they must have had high school players still on the field..that was painful to watch! 1988, I saw Frank Reich overcome a 30 point deficit against Houston too....needed some DTR normalcy before i head off to bed...
then I read 'shrimp and grits'...... spent time in Fort Jackson where you HAD to eat them everyday; but nobody ever made us eat that. never did them with sugar either; but shrimp deserve better than that... guess i'll stick to being a Northerner. I even ate alligator....eek. just can't get into that ..
Monday!! yee haw (not really) but I thought you guys would get fired up if there was pancakes, maple syrup amber (sweeter), pan fried spiced sausage with scrambled eggs (not for you CHAIKWA- french toast goes your way) Amish thick cut peppered bacon (think jerky) and the DTR mother of all trucker coffee to wash it down or jump start your day......
I have four meetings and I don't know why....

Headed to the range today. Got 30 odd REMF's to get qualified on the alt C course. For most people, a couple of hours, including the weapons cleaning, should do. With this bunch, hopefully by dark. They spend too much time
1. keeping their berets smoothed out because of the humidity
2. whining because their starch creases get ruffled
3. whining even more because they actually have to get down in the prone position to fire
I hate these kind of days
Heidi, granite will go through a rapid catastropic disassembly when subjected directly to high heat.

I HATE when that happens! I can't count the number of times I've said, "If it weren't for these ruffled starch creases, this woulda been a good day!"
Yesterday was a cluster... ev'ryone around here thinks that Exmark makes the best commercial mower that money can buy. I beg to differ! Went and flipped the switch for the electric clutch to engage the mower deck and nuttin' happened. Exmark, in their ultimate wisdom, decided that they didn't need to securely mount the clultch to anything. No, this would mean drilling at least 3 holes! That costs money! So they use a piece of rubber strap instead! And besides, the holes in the rubber strap will wear out and cause the clutch to spin with the motor, thus rippin' the wires outta the clutch in the process, thus makin' the customer buy a new clutch ev'ry 2 or 3 years. IDIOTS! 
Ok, I'm done.
Back to finishing the 5 acres of leaves before it snows on Thursday!

Howdy folks glad to be back at work doing nothing. Spent the weekend at the FIL house digging up his meter can and digging new water lines to install hydrants and a new septic tank with a gutless Baby trackhoe. He just had prostrate surgery so I was glad to help out but man am I sore not used to all that manual labor. Guess this stupid office is really makin me soft. Oh well glad to be back sounds like everyone faired well over the weekends you all have a great day.

Chris thats a nice looking filly you got there. Sorry but I had to curb wifes enthusiasm, yea I'm the bad guy. Have to get her to ride the two she has now a little more.
She would have a hundred around here if it were possible. They just don't seem to feed themselves, I can't understand that??
Thats some kind of crazy weather you're getting there.
Davey stay home till that fog burns off. 1/4 mile isn't far enough when your going 60-75mph.
Scott thats their built in maintenance schedule.
Rice cakes and tofu for the guy with the chins. I love it.
Daughter did really well on Saturday. 2nd Dan now, she is the one on the right. Instructor in suit and his wife, the rest are people in the club. Stills didn't turn out that well so I was going to try and pull some pics off the video if I can. note to self ...Christmas present for wife, course on using camera
Everyone have a good day, have fun and drive safe.

Afternoon gang, foo is hot and good - - nice going. 
Sounds like everyone is normal. 
Been busy as a bee with meetings and dinners and meetings and luncheons. Gonna go burn some worms this afternoon - - gotta keep them webs outa them spiked shoes somehow. Looks like a good day for it - - see how many dollars I can leave in the woods and the water holes.
OK, I'm off for some fun.
