Yup, I'm sure.

Absolutely not! Between the ringing in my ears and the ding-a-lings that live here I don't need any more bells!

Makes sense Scotty, Chrome and Android are both Google products.

Afternoon all.

 

chainsawed "moorg" about eleven years ago or so.....he has a stove/chainsaw/firewood place. He used to hold a large coffee cup (vandals grrrrrr)
so pretty close, jonsonrued=husky told him I had to paint his suspenders green.

did some projects, took off front wheel of Harley; fender and gas tank to painter tomorrow. hopefully.

 

It is for your PC..I don't know if they have a phone browser....

 

You would defile the Sprinklie?

Oh the Humanity!

 

Read through three pages here, and now off to bed. Been keeping busy. Hauled a load of corn to the ethanol plant this morning then swung over to the new chiropractor's office. Filled out way too many papers and talked way too much before finally getting put on the table. Couple vertebrae didn't want to go back into place so she stretched me and shoved me and used a little electric air-hammer-type-thingamabob to get them to go. Shoulders and upper back have been grinding and popping on and off all day so something must have worked, that's more than they've done in quite some time. Little expensive, but a new practice, and seems to be effective, maybe once they get some more patients their prices will drop a little.
Tired. Tired tired tired.

 

Hello Shorts, Lary, oh well, everybody, even Scot.

Scotty/Tallguy: You need to keep your darn critters out of the road. Glad I wasn't the one who hit the bison. Ford truck/Terry trailer got it at dusk about half a mile in front of us after passing because we were slow . All toast but the old folks driving it were ok.

That wasn't a storm--it was a STORM
At least it washed a lot of the bugs and mud off.
I may change my driving togs to include depends. It would make the 1000 mile days a little more entertaining/aromatic


20 X 20. Ain't big enough for a DTR member to confess in.

Fell into hard times?

Haaaa Haaaa Haaaa....oh wait. I gotta go back there in a few weeks.

Tried to read all of last weeks posts. It hurt my head.
Now using a dial up connection in CA. Get to take my Dad hunting for probably the last time (I said that the last two years and he keeps proving me wrong).

Back to changing my oil and stuff. Good thing is there is so much fresh Veggies and Fruit around here I may OD.

Gotta love dial up. Keeps ya from posting pictures of tomatoes and red bell peppers on the vine.

 

I only do what I have to do to make my plans come together.

Well jeez, slip a mushroom in his coffee or somethin' and get it over with! You musta had a rotten childhood if you've been trying for 2 years to off him.

Guten Morgen meine treuen Untertanen!

Today is Friday, September 27th.

1779 - John Adams was elected to negotiate with the British over the American Revolutionary War peace terms.

1825 - George Stephenson operated the first locomotive that hauled a passenger train.

1938 - The League of Nations branded the Japanese as aggressors in China.

1939 - After 19 days of resistance, Warsaw, Poland, surrendered to the Germans after being invaded by the ***** and the Soviet Union during World War II.

1940 - The Berlin-Rome-Tokyo Axis was set up. The military and economic pact was for 10 years between Germany, Italy and Japan.

1954 - The "Tonight!" show made its debut on NBC-TV with Steve Allen as host.

1973 - U.S. Vice President Spiro Agnew said he would not resign after he pled "no contest" to a charge of tax evasion. He did resign on October 10th.

1986 - The U.S. Senate approved federal tax code changes that were the most sweeping since World War II.

1989 - Two people went over the 176-foot-high Niagara Falls in a barrel. Jeffrey Petkovich and Peter Debernardi were the first to ever survive the Horshoe Falls. (why did I expect to see Heidi's name here?)

1991 - U.S. President George H.W. Bush eliminated all land-based tactical nuclear arms and removed all short-range nuclear arms from ships and submarines around the world. Bush then called on the Soviet Union to do the same.

2004 - North Korean Vice Foreign Minister Choe Su Hon announced that North Korea had turned plutonium from 8,000 spent nuclear fuel rods into nuclear weapons. He also said that the weapons were to serve as a deterrent against increasing U.S. nuclear threats and to prevent nuclear war in northeast Asia. The U.S. State Department noted that the U.S. has repeatedly said that the U.S. has no plans to attack North Korea.

Today's thought:
Learn to get in touch with the silence within yourself, and know that everything in life has purpose. There are no mistakes, no coincidences, all events are blessings given to us to learn from.

C0ffee & ph00 are ready. Donuts with the sprinklies are for Top only!

TOB&F!

 

Good morning folks. Scott, nice thought of the day, I disagree with the no mistakes part, thats crazy talk!

What a crazy 2 months, been out straight both at the shop and at the FD. Lots of jaws calls. One hit home a couple weeks ago. My nephew was t-boned and 2 of his life long friend perished in the wreck. Nothing like getting dispatched out to a jaws call to extricate your own family out of a car and knowing everyone in the car. Fast forward to last weekend, the wife and I head out on a poker run to benefit a K-9 division of a local PD. First ride her and I had together all year. I figure I'll throw my rapid trauma bag in my bike for the just in case moment, I usually bring it when riding in groups. Sure enough a novice rider fails to negotiate a corner on the last leg of the ride. Stabilize and patch him up the best we can till the ambulance arrives. I clean up but my shirt was covered, luckily another rider had an extra t-shirt. I look at my wife and said, what (insert profanity) I cant get away from this crap.

What a crappy summer to quit drinking! I think a nice bon fireside evening with my bride is in order.

Y'all have a good weekend.

 

Sounds like a tough couple of months Tim....God bless you for being there to help when those people need you

I hope things get better for you this Fall

 

Good Morning Crew!....sorry I am so late but then I didn't get off the rack in the dungeon till 5:30 this morning....last time I criticize the broccoli casserole I can tell you that

 

Morning gang. Getting a break in the weather so I'll be changing over tires this weekend. Scary slow at work these days. Hearing of more lay offs/consolidations through out the company now. A lot of people here are not waiting and jumping ship. I'm just waiting for a nod from a place closer to home. Pay cut, but no more long distance commute.

 

If you had said she busted you in the back with her shin I would have said you saw Hannah Seaman. That woman is vicious!

Let's hope he continues to!

Tim, prayers to you buddy. Nothing worse than responding to friends or family, especially when you can't change the outcome. (BTDT, took almost 20 years to forgive myself.) Always follow your intuition when it comes to packing gear. If you hadn't had it things could have been worse.

Isn't that what you said the last time? You really need to start taking notes.

Morning all. I get to take the cath for the pain pump out of the wife today. Now where did I leave those BIG channel-locks?

 

Wear lots of padding.

He's been trying to get rid of me for 58.

Mine did a good impression of a rabid badger bat crazy banshee when I ran over her purse the last time.

Yeah. Only problem now is he tells time differently from younger people.
When he said we needed to run into town early to pick up his tags I forgot that early is sometime between 0800 and 1400.
We are supposed to leave early tomorrow morning.

 

Couple of weeks ago we were at this party, me sitting next to my sister, who was next to our granddad.
At some point it always turns into politics when we get together, this time wasnīt different, so we talked about this local politician that we all knew by name, but couldnīt quite pinpoint.
Thatīs when sis grapped her smartphone and Googled the name, seconds later thereīs a picture from a newspaper of the politician we were talking about, so she showed it to granddad, asking if this is her?
His eyes got as big as a beerglass, and he went "yup, thatīs her, but in that Little thing, how the heck did you get her in there???"
We all had a good laugh there, and afterall he is 97, itīs kinda scary to think about how everything has changed in his time.

Wow Slev GREAT Story!...

Amazing the things he has seen is his lifetime and the lessons we all could learn if we would just listen
