Guam Used to be a sign at the Naval Air Station or maybe Anderson that greeted you with "Guam is a four letter word." Great place for diving but do not like being stationed there. Check out Andy's Hut at Apra Harbor and a guamanian/mexican place called Joes and Flos.

Mornin all,

Up and at em early today ... trying to get my squaw work done for the week. Momma and the kids will be here in a week and I guess it's time to shovel out the trailer, hide the beer cans and buy some real food . The sacrifices that a guy makes for his family.


Fiver ... you were supposed to keep that cool air up north of Miami ... wassup ?
I actually had to put on long pants and a t-shirt today. We are down in the frigid 60's this morning. What should I do guys .... should I plug the truck in ? Hehehehe (I am sooooo gonna freeze my twich-it off in Germany).

Enjoy the rest of the weekend ... sorry if you gotta work

Coffee is done,,,,,, the Christmas decorations are up,,,,, [i](Whew! I think I'm going to invent a system that will release the icicle lights and then retracts them at the push of a button!
I may even change the oil on the truck and give it a bath today. Suppose tho be up in the mid 50's.

Y'all have a good one,

Yeah, now I can get my coffee. Shortround, Joe and Flo's got shut down I believe. The building still stands but there grafiti all over it and there is never any cars in the parking lot. Unless you count the abandoned ones.

Theres more coffee left y'all. Come and get it !

Around here you either get black clay (akin to gumbo and slipperier than whale snot) or sand. I have tried the WD-40 trick and it didn't work.
Don't ask how I know this little bit of wisdom but DO NOT under any circumstance spray your rotors with WD-40 (I got a little distracted while I was working). With the clay it is easier to let it dry and then bounce the bike up and down hard on the concrete and lots of it will fall right off. What's left is now done with a pressure washer .

GOOD MORNING DTRONIANS (CLANG, CRASH, BUGLES, AIR HORNS, ETC)
0338, AM, in the morning, before day light, Central Standard Time, in the middle of Arkansas.
Headed out to work to attempt to unscrew the screw ups from last week. May have to take the entire week off.

Morning all.
Off to start another week.
Hope you all have a good, safe week.

Now... if I could just figure out how to make the coffee heat up faster!

Rich.
