Is that a serious question, if it is, it post just once per page, after your first post on a page it does not show up. Seems this feature has been enabled for awhile put people are just noticing it, there have been a couple threads about it in the last few weeks.

I am always serious. I had noticed it but just figured it was something I was doing wrong (like normal). Thanks for the straight up info. The other guys would have ridiculed me for being stupid, hurting my feelings resulting in me eating the entire cheesecake I bought today.

Hmmm...if she'd only been a few months earlier (and I had a cow permit) I wouldn't be sitting at the dinner table eating chicken while I watched her play in my backyard.

And of course, the stupid dog thinks he needs to pee. Time to finish that fence I've been talking about

Claude!! You have been spending too much time on the radio. Glad you are alive and (for you) well.

Mmmmm, almost as good as Buffalo. Its been six years since I had one hanging in the shed aging. I would go out and carve some steaks off the backstrap and flash fry them in bacon grease. Better than cheese cake!

Back at work this AM..........
At least I'm not raking leaves.

20* outside, looks like I still have job security (Nothing got done while I was off for week)

Coffee's hot, trying to mold the leftover donut crumbs into a ball.

Have a great DTR day.

Nobody awake at this hour? Good morning to those that are.
Time for a second cup of coffee and getting ready to start a busy day. Need a job so that I can have some spare time. This retirement business ain't all it is cracked up to be as I am now busier than when I was working full time.

Should I tell you about our weather down here in Paradise? Nah, better not. However, I do have a deep and growing tan on my legs (not LEGGS!) from the bottom of my short shorts to my ankles.

Look... don't rely on use to give you a reason to eat the cheesecake, you have to do that on your own!

Ah, yes, 14 hour days. I love how everyone gets misreable and starts mean mugging each other by the 3rd day. Of course, I made my guys start at 0400... Be careful, Blake.

Mornin, DTR. Yep, I've got the crud, everyone stay away. I think I'm going to take a sick day today, go in and make sure the world is not going to catch on fire, then come home. Hope I'm better by next week, I gotta go to Cali for a week.

Ya'll have a good one.

I'da answered, but then you wouldn't have any cheescake left!






Morning all.

Today is Monday, November 29th. 25 days & 16 hours 'til Christmas.

On this day in 1864 - The Sand Creek Massacre occurred in Colorado when a militia led by Colonel John Chivington, killed at least 400 peaceful Cheyenne and Arapaho Indians who had surrendered and had been given permission to camp. Prob'ly something we shouldn't be proud of.

1890 - Navy defeated Army by a score of 24-0 in the first Army-Navy football game. The game was played at West Point, NY.

1929 - The first airplane flight over the South Pole was made by U.S. Navy Lt. Comdr. Richard E. Byrd.

1939 - The USSR broke off diplomatic relations with Finland prior to a Soviet attack.

1963 - U.S. President Johnson named a commission headed by Earl Warren to investigate the assassination of President Kennedy.

1975 - Bill Gates adopted the name Microsoft for the company he and Paul Allen had formed to write the BASIC computer language for the Altair.

1981 - Actress Natalie Wood drowned in a boating accident off Santa Catalina Island, CA, at the age 43.

1982 - The U.N. General Assembly voted that the Soviet Union should withdraw its troops from Afghanistan.

1986- Actor Cary Grant died at the age of 82.

1990 - The U.N. Security Council voted to authorize military action if Iraq did not withdraw its troops from Kuwait and release all foreign hostages by January 15, 1991.

1996 - A U.N. court sentenced Bosnian Serb army soldier Drazen Erdemovic to 10 years in prison for his role in the massacre of 1,200 Muslims. The sentence was the first international war crimes sentence since World War II.

2004 - Godzilla received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:
Whose cruel idea was it for the word "lisp" to have an "s" in it?

Coffee is... gone.
