Morning all ....

Had to get up early on a Sunday to get #1 son to his job training for the day. Only the second day and he already thinks this one is not for him.

Mad .... don't feel bad buddy, every time I leave the house on a business trip,I come home to some new mongrel. I don't know where she comes up with them ... but they are usually the most pathetic looking mutts you've ever seen.

Enjoy the pancakes ... may have to find some myself .

Cheers,
PISTOL

Good morning everybody!

Sunday morning. Sleepy and peaceful.

Got up this morning and took the dog for a walk. It's the most clear sky with the slightest breeze and bright sun. Birds chirping. Oh and there's the Harley sittng by the door! Dusty tires from last evening's sunset ride.

Mornings in the desert are absolutely beautiful.

Hope you all have a fine week! Take care.

Mornin all

The weather for the long weekend is not that great. It's been windy and cold with some rain thrown in for good measure. All those campers will be heading back early me thinks.

Hat don't those sailors ring a bell or blow a whistle when it's chow time? come and get it, up and at em What kind of dog did she get Mark? Sometimes a Heinze 57 is better than a pure bred.

Blue3quarter The turnout hasn't been up in numbers but the quality is still here.

Redleg it's to early to be talking about wwwwin... see I can't even say it. And I don't want to think about it either. We still have lots of days before the white stuff starts flying around. The grass is still green and the trees still have leaves on them.

Time to get to church, have a good one drive safe and have fun. Later...

Poetic justice.... Tigers might as well operate just like all the other agencies in this state. They'll blend right in.

Thanks Heidi!

l jobb, I'll agree with that, the quality is still here. We have a good janitor keeping us on our toes.

Just got back from the party for my friend. He had a great time and was happy to see his friends come out to see him. He's dating my gf's sister and I guess when they picked him up at the airport the other day he proposed to her. So congrats to them! Had a couple beers today, some good food and played horse shoes for a while. I'm tryin' to relax for a little while before I go to bed.

It's Late...At lest for me. Just got done installing some truck parts today in 110* heat, and more to go. And of course the normal maintenance on the rest of the vehicles.

So the ER Dr. gives me these happy little pills that make me not care that my back hurts and ells me to take it easy. So, I am out in front of the shop taking it easy with the cutting torch on a reject 91.5 donor frame when I run out of oxygen. So, I undo the guage set on the oxytank and screw the cap on and go to lift the 4' tall tank out of the cradle by the cap when the cap pops off and I shove it with all my strength into my nose. So now I have a bad back, drugs that make me not care, and a broken nose. Now, if I only had a brain...

I'm just glad I was already medicated when I smashed my nose. Another bright side is that the bump keeps my glasses from sliding down.
