f*ckin weirdo's.
20 degrees this morning. 15 degree windchill. Snow on board for tonight. only talking 1-2"
We are supposed to get into the 60's today.
~Brian
we have nothin but mid 20's on the slate for the next 5 days :clap: :clap: should be able to get out on the lakes and get ice fishing in no time. The whole no snow on the lake is really helping the ice formation out.
a winter day in cali was in the upper 60's to 70's. Lows at night could hit the low 40's and I've seen 30's out there. That's perfect for me, stays green all winter long. Just weird mowing the lawn in January, well not really mowing it....watching the mexicans do it for me.
I like the break from mowing the lawn. :thumbs: Mow from mid-ish april to about september but not to often.

The would do it for 20 bucks a week. And that was the grass mowed, trimmed and all the clippings blown off and raked. The yard would look perfect when they were done. They even trimmed all the bushes and trees once a month.

They mowed, I went swimming or riding. That's staying active.
:lol:
I'm picky.
I like my shit done a certain way. It only takes me about an hour anyway.
~Brian
It's not that I don't mind doing yard work, I've just grown up doing a lot of it..
My family took care of a cemetary, it was about 15 acres worth of lawn to mow and then trim around all of the standing headstones, trees, and flowers. Took my family about 3-4 hours / week to do. that's my mom and dad each on riding lawn mowers and my bro and I trimming.
Then we'd go home, and my parents have about 12 acres of lawn.... My bro and I, it would take about 3-4 hours. I don't mind it when I'm doing it like you've said before Brian, it's rather relaxing.
I'm very picky....ocd and German. But I have to be honest, there is no way I could do as good of a job as these guys do. They cross mowed it and their trimming work was perfect every time.

Small. My lot was 8500 sq. ft. Big bucks if you are in the half acre market.
1/2 acre in SoCal would be very expensive. Easy upper six figures in the 'burbs.
~Brian
San gabriel vally and OC would be well in the upper six figures for a half acre. You can get something that size out in riverside or San bernardino for under 500k.
Our yard is several acres, the rest the cows get to eat. But we have not had much yard work this year because of the drought. We are on track to be the driest year ever. :(
I had a guy call me a couple of months ago about buying my 3.5 acres. Property here when compared to elsewhere in the country is pretty cheap.
~Brian
It's finally starting to come back down here. It was fetching about $10,000 per acre
Did he low ball you?
I hope you can build out there someday. Building costs should be down next year.

damn, that's stupid rediculous... It's like California and I'm sure other places in the US.. But they are totally on their own... a computer guy makes like... 150k+.. But they only make that much because everything else is stupid expensive.

No, he didn't make an offer, he asked if I was interested in selling it. He owns the house just to the north of my property. I need to have a survey done. The person I bought the property from told me he thought that the guy's driveway was too close to my property line or on my property line. I would like to know, especially before he paves it.
I gave $24500 for the 3.5 acres. It is in an area with covenants, so I don't have to worry about some douche throwing a mobile home next to me, etc.. The road in and out is maintained by the county now, and is paved. The only negative I have is I'm afraid of not having adequate police patrols there. County police are responsible for that area, and I've never seen a county sheriff out there.
~Brian
~Brian
is it an area that needs the patrols?

It is slightly rual, but it is Sequoyah County, Oklahoma. There are some very nice homes there, and I have heard of some break ins there. I have a secuirty system on my home now, and would do the same with the new home, but people can get in and out well before police ever arrive.

Not a fan of Nickelback, let me know what you think of the Chinese Democracy. :thumbs:
There are three or four songs on Chinese Democracy that aren't that bad.

Where is the Squatch today? I had a morning worthy of a Socal rant!
Dropping off my son at Elementary school, a lady stops in front of me in a Chrysler minivan.(go figure) I see the parking lights flick through reverse, then her door opened. So I went around her and turned left right next to her to go back and drop Colin off at Mom's. At which point, she shuts her door puts it in drive and starts going just as I roll by. WTF. Local Police, in an unmarked Dodge Truck (where do we get the cash for that) pulls me over. Riot act! :rolleyes: Then, I can't find my damned insurance card. Only one that expired April of this year. :lol: Late as hell to work. He gave me three days to fax him my info... or he will show up at my door with a $380 ticket! :mad: Organization has not always been my forte' :lol: Oh, and I had forgotten the little guy's "blankie" and he was freakin out the whole time. :help: :lol:
Nice.
Great job.
I figured you'd be an organizer. Especially with explosive chemicals.

Extreme Car and Organization only when needed. :lol:
My organizational energy only lasts for a fleeting moment, then it is gone, replaced by incredible drowsiness. :lol:

You need to look at that mother f*ckers badge and get his name. Find out where that worthless piece of shit lives and go light his car on fire. I would spend the next year making that f*ucker pay for making my son cry. If only I had my umbilical cord wrapped around my neck when I was born then I could be a cop too. Waste of f*uckin air! FERK!
lunch time ho's :thumbs:
Some cops just tend to be natural pricks. They need to weed the power hungry ones out of the academy.

That piece of shit had two choices in life, a elementary school gym teacher or a cop. Both come with the gay ass shorts.

I took my full dose this morning. I just hate ass holes like that. You make my son cry, I'm coming for you and hell's coming with me. I would torch his car or truck, kill any pets that he may have and do anything I can to get his ass fired.

Classic Socal Thanksgiving moment....
Owen was dead tired before dinner and I took him up stairs, he went right out. Came down stairs to my aunt yelling for my uncle who was right behind her. Then he decided to yell "I'm right here" back to her. Thats when Owen woke up and started freaking out. I think he was just tired and woke up in a strange area. So I ran up stairs to get him and saw that sad face and lost it. I came down stair and stormed into the kitchen and said the next son of a bitch that decides to raise their voice when a baby is sleeping is going to be eating their dinner through a straw.
I'm an unstable man...
Damn!
So it must have not been your favorite uncle.
:lol;
~Brian
Actually one of my favorite. I was just pissed off and I hadn't eaten all day so my blood sugar was low. But when I see my son cry and I know its someone's fault I just lose it.
Big papa mode kicks in.
Wait until Owen is in school.
I pity the poor teacher that fucks up.

I pity the girl that messes up. :lol: :lol: :lol:

I about died last night when I saw that. I was laughing so hard and coughing like mad at the same time. This cold is really kicking my ass.
Do you have any antibiotics lying around? If you have fever, you've got a nasty infection that needs a helping hand.
~Brian
can't say I've seen it.
Lydia and I got a christmas tree last night and decorated it :) :)
I think we're going out this weekend or next to get a tree. They have a really nice farm west of the city that we go to.
We have two trees, and put a different one up each year. Can't do the real thing due to Brandy's allergies.
We have an 8 footer, and we also have a 12 footer.
~Brian
I prefer fake, but lydia really wanted real. So real it was. Bummer w/ brandy having allergies to that. Love the smell of the pine inside.
For me it has to be real. But we'll see how it goes since Owen has allergies.
I do too.
We have thousands of pines around us in the Ouachita National Forrest. There's nothing like riding down there. Fresh, clean, pine smell while you're riding, especially this time of year. Summers are a no-no due to the Timber Rattlesnakes.
~Brian
We're so lucky up here.
I mean granted we have mosquitos and winter.. But.. Timber Rattlesnakes only get as far as the southern edge of Minnesota. We have one other Poisonous snake, but it's so rare...
That is one thing we don't have here and I couldn't be more happy. I hate snakes. Out west they had the Mojave greens that would literally chase you, and if you get hit its game over. Never saw one and I hope I never do. But mosquitoes bug the hell out of me...same goes for winter.
oh, suck it up. It's not even bad yet. :rolleyes:
:lol:
bad enough for me. But the nasty cold I have isn't helping.
Snakes we have here...
All of these are poisonous!

The Texas Coral Snake
(http://www.snakesofarkansas.com/gallery/15164-2/2C3V6715.jpg)
Rule of thumb: Red and Yellow will kill a fellow, red and black is a friend of Jack.
This snake resembles the California king snake, and the native Arkansas Milk snake, but the red bands followed by a yellow band are the identifiying marks.
(http://www.snakesofarkansas.com/gallery/25539-2/2C3V9377.jpg)
These are just the ones you've really got to watch for. There are other non-poisonous snakes too, but too many to list. 35 others to be exact.
~Brian
Oh hell no! I would be screaming like a girl.
I forgot, we have cottom mouths too. Never seen one. but they are also on the southern end of minnesota as well as in Wisc.
The Cottonmouth is also known here as the Water Moccasin. They are very agressive, and will come at you rather than retreating.
~Brian
I mow the lawn for an elderly fellow and probably chop over 20 snakes up as im cutting grass! They are like a aqua color and i dont know what they are but they look funny as hell when they are all chopped up! :grin_nod:
haha, We get garder snakes up here. they are not very big and no teeth on em. maybe as big as your pinky diameter wise. get from 1' to about 2' long. quick little things. But when we mowed the cemetary it was a regular occurance for one of em' to go through the blades :lol:
I just got this in an email from Compass Bank:
You should be getting an announcement from us later today. I wanted to let you know ahead of time about this. With the announcement of what GM is offering as a business plan to receive part of the bailout loans, our upper management has reached a decision based on these reports. GM has said they would eliminate the Saab, Saturn and Pontiac lines. Based on this announcement, effective immediately, we will no longer offer financing on new or used Saab, Saturn or Pontiac vehicles. I apologize for the inconvenience this causes, but as you know, the times are tough and ever changing right now. All of us have to do what we feel we need to do to stay a viable and profitable business. I know you are doing business differently now, as well as we on the lender side are having to. Our goal is to be able to be around throughout all this turmoil and offer you the best interest rates we can. Again, I apologize for the inconvenience this may cause, but hopefully we will all get through this together.
~Brian
ELIMINATING SATURN AND PONTIAC?!!!!!!!!!!
That's fookin nuts!!!!!!!!! :jaw: :jaw: :jaw: :jaw: :jaw: :jaw: :jaw:
Wow, and saab get the ax too. Thats crazy that they are getting rid of all three. But then again, I'm not a fan of any of them. I just can't see why they are keeping buick around over those three.
I'm with you E.
Buick hasn't been profitable in years.
I would axe Buick or rebadge the better selling models as Chevrolets or low end Cadillacs.
~Brian
I can see Saturn.. They are big up nort' here cuz' they are cheap, and all plastic so the salty roads don't do crap to em.
But Pontiac, that is a shock to me.. They sell like freaking hot cakes up here. I'd say the cars that own the roads up here are the following:
Chevs Cavalier, Ford's Taurus, and Pontiacs Grand Prix and Grand Am.
Everyday that goes by more of Buick's clientele is dying off.
It's really to bad. They have a solid car. But.. They stopped listening to what people wanted years ago. I love the supercharged beasts though! :grin_nod:
Buick is doing well in foreign markets, so that's the reason GM isn't dropiing it right now.
~Brian
Really? I didn't know that.

I guess its the whole import factor. Like BMW here.
Hey ladies. Iam busier than Kyle in a bukkakke video here...and it sux! :mad: Workers laid off til Monday.
And the gm thing...long time coming in my book. Sad, though. Never understood the need for rebadged vehicles in the first place. Sunfire/cavalier/. Grand Prix/Lumina etc. Same hunk o junk with the same damn 3800 v6 or worse the 4 cylinder 2.2...but spend the extra dough for new body panels, dash light colors and plastic? :rolleyes: Same goes for Ford. Chrysler sort of figured it out sooner.

I guess it's the luxury aspect of the car, and how you can buy it thousands less than a BMW (example)
As you and I both know, a Buick compared to a BMW is like night and day. There are some cool gizmos on the newer Buicks, but they are no where near the quality of a BMW.

No argument out of this GERMAN. :thumbs:

OFFICIAL GM STATEMENT:
GM Submits Plan for Long-Term Viability to the U.S. Congress
* Reaffirms GM's commitment to energy-saving vehicles and technologies
* Outlines the need for Federal bridge loans and line of credit
* Requests Federal board to oversee loans, assist with restructuring
* Aggressive plan details GM actions to support long-term success
WASHINGTON – General Motors Corp. today submitted a plan to use Federal bridge loans to create a leaner, more competitive company, one that is profitable and self-sustaining for the long term.
The plan, submitted in response to Congressional hearings in November, includes a detailed blueprint for a successful, sustainable General Motors. Building on a product renaissance and comprehensive restructuring that has been under way for several years, the plan calls for:
* Increased production of fuel-efficient vehicles and energy-saving technologies;
* Rationalization of brands, models and retail outlets;
* Reduced wage and benefit costs, including further reductions in executive compensation;
* Significant capital structure restructuring;
* Further consolidation in manufacturing operations.
GM is requesting term loans of up to $12 billion to provide adequate liquidity levels through December 31, 2009. GM anticipates an initial draw of $4 billion in December 2008. In addition to the bridge loans, the company is requesting a $6 billion line of credit to provide liquidity should a severe market downturn persist. GM's intent is to begin to repay the loans as soon as 2011.
Any draws would be conditioned on achieving specific restructuring requirements in the plan. To help expedite these actions and protect the taxpayers, GM is also seeking the creation of a Federal oversight board to oversee the loans and restructuring plan.
GM is requesting the bridge loans and credit line because of a sharp industry-wide decline in vehicle sales. This decline, due in large part to tight credit and record-low consumer confidence, has led to a corresponding drop in dealer orders that is adversely impacting GM's first-quarter production schedules, revenue forecasts, and liquidity outlook. Federal assistance would enable GM to weather a credit crisis that has driven U.S. industry sales to their lowest per-capita level in half a century, and help the company emerge fully competitive with all manufacturers operating in the U.S.
The complete GM plan is available online <link>. Following are highlights from the plan.
Product Portfolio and Fuel Efficiency – GM has made significant progress in revamping its product lineup, with new GM cars like the Chevy Malibu, Cadillac CTS, Saturn Aura and Opel/Vauxhall Insignia earning car of the year awards.While remaining a full-line manufacturer, GM will substantially change its product mix over the next four years, and launch predominately high mileage, energy-efficient cars and crossovers.
In addition, the Chevy Volt, which can travel up to 40 miles on electricity alone, is scheduled for production in 2010, and GM is planning other vehicles using Volt's extended-range electric drivetrain. By 2012, more than half of GM vehicles will be flex-fuel capable, and the company will offer 15 hybrid models. GM will continue development of hydrogen fuel cell technology, which, when commercially deployed, will reduce automotive emissions to just water vapor.
During the 2009-12 plan window, GM will invest approximately $2.9 billion in alternative fuels and advanced propulsion technologies, which offer fuel economy improvements ranging from 12 percent to 120 percent, compared with conventional gas engines. As a result, we expect GM to become a significant creator of green jobs in the United States, as well helping suppliers and dealers transform the U.S. economy.
Market and Retail Operations – In the U.S., GM will focus its product development and marketing efforts on four core brands – Chevrolet, Cadillac, Buick and GMC. Pontiac will be a specialty brand with reduced product offerings within the Buick-Pontiac-GMC channel. Hummer has recently been put under strategic review, which includes the possible sale of the brand, and GM will immediately undertake a global strategic review of the Saab brand. As part of the plan, the company also will accelerate discussions with the Saturn retailers, consistent with their unique relationship, to explore alternatives for the Saturn brand.
Manufacturing and Structural Costs – GM will accelerate its current efforts to reduce manufacturing and structural costs, building on significant progress made over the past several years. GM currently has the most productive assembly plants in 11 of the 20 product segments measured by the Harbour Report, and it is a global leader in workplace safety. With the recently negotiated wage rates, turnover expected in our workforce, planned assembly plant consolidations, further productivity improvements in the plan, and additional changes to be negotiated, GM's wages and benefits for both current workers and new hires will be fully competitive with Toyota by 2012.
Balance Sheet Restructuring – Under the plan, GM would significantly reduce the debt currently carried on its balance sheet. GM plans to engage current lenders, bond holders and its unions to negotiate the needed changes. GM's plan would preserve the status of existing trade creditors and honor all outstanding warranty obligations to both dealers and consumers, in the U.S. and globally.
Compensation and Dividends – The plan calls for shared sacrifice, including further reduction in the number of executives and total compensation paid to senior leadership. For example, the chairman and CEO will reduce his salary to $1 per year. The plan also requires further changes in existing labor agreements, including job security provisions, paid time-off, and post-retirement health-care obligations. The common stock dividend will remain suspended during the life of the loans.
Temporary Federal Bridge Loans – GM is seeking a term bridge loan facility from the Federal government of $12 billion to cover operating requirements under a baseline forecast of 12 million U.S. industry vehicle sales for 2009. In addition, GM is seeking a revolving credit facility of $6 billion that could be drawn should severe industry conditions continue, resulting in sales of 10.5 million total vehicles in 2009. This bridge loan is expected to be fully repaid by 2012 under the baseline industry assumptions. Also, warrants issued as part of the loans would allow taxpayers to benefit from growth in the company's share price that might result from successful completion of the plan.
Once GM has completed the restructuring actions laid out in the plan, the company will be able to operate profitably at industry volumes between 12.5 and 13 million vehicles. This is substantially below the 17 million industry levels averaged over the last nine years, so it is considered to be a reasonably conservative assumption for gauging liquidity needs.
Federal Oversight Board – Given the importance and urgency of this restructuring for GM, other domestic manufacturers and the U.S. economy as a whole, the company supports the formation of a Federal oversight board. The board would help facilitate restructuring negotiations with a range of stakeholders.
GM's Commitment to Success
General Motors and its management are committed to the success of the plan summarized in the Congressional submission. The company's responsibility to its customers, shareholders, employees, retirees, dealers and suppliers is well recognized, as is its century-long commitment to our nation.
GM has never failed to meet a Congressional mandate in the important areas of fuel efficiency and vehicle emissions. We are among the leaders today in fuel efficiency, and set the industry standard for green manufacturing methods. We are committed to meeting the new fuel economy requirements of the 2007 Energy Independence and Security Act. The company's role in creating green technology and high-paying jobs of the future will increase substantially as a result of implementing the plan.
GM is proud of its century of contributions to the growth of our nation, and the company looks forward to making an equally meaningful contribution over the next century.

thanks for the post. Good read.
Mostly what I would do with a sinking ship. Start pailing out water.
"rationalization of brands, models, and retail outlets."
RIP Saturn, Pontiac, SAAB...you won't be missed...at least by me. :lol:
Seriously...how many times can you rebadge a cavalier? Cobalt, sunfire...IT is still a cavalier. :confused:
no offense to anyone in the biz.... I say let em' sink..
no one's fault but their own. I don't mean for others to suffer. But..
Maybe turn the plants into something else. Manufacturing weapons or something.

The bad thing is you can't.
1 out of every ten jobs in the US is related to auto manufacturing. If they fold, millions of other jobs fold too. Suppliers that supply, steel, plastics, foam, aluminum, rubber, microchips, electronics, wire, etc.. Would stand to loose billions of dollars.

An estimated 40+ million people have a job in some way, shape or form, because of the USA auto industry. (in other countries mostly) :lol: :( can't just let it sink. Unless they have a decent sinking solution plan. :grin_nod: They have to change their ways...period. 1000 people earning $15/hr is better than 500 people earning 30/hr for entry level work.
The fact that the cars are shit doesn't factor in? There sheer variety of people who have done a piss poor job is astounding, yet you guys are broken records..."union this, union that".
I get enough of this bitching from my family members in the industry (none of them union).
The Germans have higher worker labor rates than the US does and they seem to keep their head above water and turn out much better vehicles.
I'm not sure about that German automaker statement. I've been told that they are much less.
German's, I don't think have that high of pay, well maybe their engineers do. ;)
It seems to me as an outsider, that unions have ruined their work ethic as well working to get them higher pay. They made them feel like they deserve big pay for mediocre work. The rest was good old american slacking. :confused:

Average UAW wages are just a hint under $25/hour.

Labor costs in Germany's private sector average €28 an hour after taxes and other costs are added. The average across Europe's common currency zone is €26 an hour.
28 Euros = 35.4424 U.S. dollars

IMO, as an average, this is too high for unskilled labor.
The problem with that Routan would have been the resale, or the first time I looked at parts manual and saw chrysler on something. Can you say "flatline" :lol:

Average labor COST after taxes and other costs are added. I would like to see that number for the US after taxes and other costs are factored into the wage.
And another thing, I think that average UAW wage is way off. I can't think of anyone I know that makes that little working for the UAW. 25 an hour is close to their starting wage.

Yeah, no doubt.
Especially since the latest crash tests came out without a Chrysler, Dodge, and Jeep producting making favorable marks.
November 25, 2008
Ford Motor Co. offers the most vehicles in America with top safety ratings, says the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.
Advertisement
The institute today released its "Top Safety Pick" awards list for 2009, which recognizes vehicles that do the best job of protecting people in front, side and rear crashes, based on the institute's tests.
Ford had more winners than any other automaker -- 16 in all. Honda Motor Co. was second, with 13 winners. General Motors Corp. and Toyota Motor Corp. tied with eight each.
In all, 72 vehicles made the list, double the number of winners a year ago.
Chrysler LLC, based in Auburn Hills, was the only major automaker that did not receive a single top safety pick. The institute said Chrysler could have picked up five awards "if the head restraints were better in the Dodge Avenger and Chrysler Sebring, the Sebring convertible, and the Dodge Grand Caravan and Chrysler Town & Country."

Safety is one thing, rattling to pieces due to poor craftsmanship is another. I hate Chrysler minivans with a passion. No offense. They are waaaaayyyy better than they used to be, but I still can't shake visions of the old school Caravans and voyagers falling apart.

The new ones are some of the best American vans made, but no where near the quality of a German/Japanese made product.

Getting there. I have 1 or 2 fit/finish problems with our Quest that I would expect to see on a Domestic car. Japenese and German automakers design a good car, then try to make it cheap. Leaving you with a well designed car with a few cheap parts. (not totally true for Germans) American automakers design a cheap car then try to improve it. Leaving you with an expensive cheap car. They need to rethink from the ground up. Redesigning the cavalier, selling a new (same old) Camaro just isn't going to cut it. With less money floating around, people will demand more for each dollar. Chrysler has had the right idea it seems. Not financially, though.
Well thats it for me, time to head to the train. And yes Brian, we know.....till 7.

Case study of a German union auto worker with 20 years in (2007 data):
Hourly pay rate: Monthly gross pay scale of 3,400 euros ($4,692) works out to 24.28 euros ($33.50) per hour.
Overtime pay rate: 25 per cent premium per hour with two-hour daily cap.
Hourly cost to company including health care, pension and costs for long-term retirees: An additional 108.8 per cent of salary for holiday bonuses, health care, long term care insurance, sick and training time.
So your total cost to the company is just shy of $70 dollars per hour.
Now the average for US auto workers with the costs added is $42 dollars, not counting the legacy costs for retired employees. Using the ridiculous 73 dollar an hour figure that so many news outlets have been quoting would reflect what the company pays out when retired workers are factored in. The figure is misleading because it's adding the value of existing pensions to the wage of a current worker, not the actual value that worker gets.
BTW I think I might have a head :)

Whole different sytem over there. They pay more for housing, fuel etc. No income tax in some places though. :thumbs: I am just saying you can get by with much less in most places in America. Not be wealthy, just live well. At $25/hr you should be living quite well in
some places. Not on either coast but you get my drift.......

Saab was a pretty good car before GM got involved. They are good cold weather cars. Saab builds really good aircraft, but not the greatest cars.

Tiger was reportedly wanting out of the contract to spend more time on tour and with his family. Thank GERD, because he was getting $7 million a year from GM!

Well if I put it back together it would be easier to sell and I'm considering that route but I wouldn't get what I could if I parted it out. I guess I'll just take it slow and see what happens. Nice not having an ice racing season to put me in a pinch to get her running.

Rhythm method accepted by the Vatican as an approved method of birth control. Does the pope wear a condom?

Frank Zappa dead of prostate cancer in Los Angeles at age 52.
Another person I wish I could have seen. :( I've read quite a bit about him. A freaking ninja at music in general.
RIP Franky
Frank was a weird mofo. He was a genius musically.
~Brian
Producting. Writing music in Classical, Jazz, Rock, Country...... freakin awesome.
Happy international hug day!

Big giant 10-4 on that one good buddy. Make yourself indispensable. :thumbs: This is my motto. Do some things that others wouldn't do. Then become the guy they call when they need help. Pain in the a$$ for awhile...but pays off as you start to delegate. IT was tough for me here for quite awhile, being that person. But now, everyone relies on me, at least for answers....but I get to pick and choose what extra work I take on. ANd, surf the internet some days, and BS about quads and stuff right in front of the people who have the same seniority as me, but make nearly half my wages and do more. I know, not as cool as alot of you, but works for me. I used to be the other guy, that would do the minimum, when the axe came, I had no grounds for complaint. I proved to myself that attitude change goes a long way. Something I did not believe about 6 years ago. Lost my job, expecting our first child. Could have taken that as a negative...but it was a wake up call. :thumbs:
:thumbs:
But....oh yeah, meth sells itself. :lol:
This is the weather I could be in. Our high today is 21 here.

have fun with that man.
hey peels how strict(sp) are the police out around little sahara. i mean if they catch you riding across the street to get on to a day time trail out there do you think they will write tickets for that?
I have heard of it both ways. They do up their show of force for the weekend. With bigger crowds, I understand that. It is because you are driving by people's homes at night that they do that. Alot of people out there are not very respectful. Therefore, you may pay the price. We were good about it. Stopped at the atv parking area and walked over to the store. One guy started his banshee and walked it over the tracks to the car wash. You could always load unload at the parking area, then ride the trail. Then you don't have to tie them down so well. The trail leads into north camp, then into the north entrance of the dunes. :thumbs:
Are you thinking you just don't want to trailer them back and forth?

no i don't mind trailering them. it's just that we are getting a rental house and i think it would be easier to ride the trails to the dunes. but there's only 2 rental places that are right on the trails.

Today in history...
Dec 6 1793
Guillotining of Mme. du Barry, mistress of Louis XV. "She screamed, she begged mercy of the horrible crowd that stood around the scaffold, she aroused them to such a point that the executioner grew anxious and hastened to complete his task."
Dec 6 1917
At 9:05 AM, the munitions ship Mont Blanc explodes in Halifax harbor after being struck by another ship. It is the largest explosion before the atomic age. The ship was carrying 200 tons of TNT, 61 tons of gun cotton, 35 tons of Benzyl, and 2,300 tons of picric acid; the explosion destroys 325 acres of the city, leaving 1,900 people dead and injuring over 9,000.
Dec 6 1969
A concert by the Rolling Stones at Altamont ends in the death of a fan at the hands of the Hells Angels, who were hired for security.
Dec 6 1980
Televangelist Jim Bakker of the PTL ministry has a 15 minute quickie in a motel room with Jessica Hahn. The minister uses the line "When you help the shepherd, you're helping the sheep". Baaaa. PTL later pays Hahn hush money, but seven years later the incident becomes public and Bakker resigns in disgrace.
Dec 6 1987
Three teenagers in Missouri beat a friend to death and blame the incident on heavy metal inspired satanism. The jury didn't buy their story, instead finding a pattern of drug use among the youths and evidence of animal torture during childhood by their ringleader.
Dec 6 1989
Marc Lepine kills 14 women at Ecole Polytechnic, University of Montreal, and injures 15 others. It is the worst mass murder in Canadian history. On him is a suicide letter explaining his actions as being specific revenge against 19 "feminists who have ruined my life... I have decided to put an end to those viragos."

Don't think so, because I have the dark fantasy and requested the chat box on that theme.

~Brian
I am sorry to hear that. That is shocking it happend at 33 years old. I'll keep his family in my prayers.
I will set you up brian so you don't see it. give me a few mins. I was going to do it last night, but figured, I better at least let you see it.
What's crazy is his wife Jennifer went and got dinner, and brought it home so they could watch the OU-Missouri game. He picked at his food, said he was feeling sick and his back hurt. They were watching the OU game at home and he told his wife to get her shoes on, he needed to go to the hospital. As they walked out the door, he fell backwards onto her. She told him to "Stop playing, that's not funny." She's a paramedic by trade, realized he wasn't breathing, and she gave him CPR until the ambulance arrived. They hit him four times with the paddles. They got him into surgery and put a stint in place. After surgery, he was alert, and awake. He spoke to his wife for about an hour, and told her to go home to get some clothes, he was going to rest. She was in the elevator and heard a code blue call. She ran back to the room and he was gone. His doctor said he had the heart of an 80 year old man.

He led a wild life. He had a his child out of wedlock with a girl, and the relationship didn't work out. After he had the child it literally changed him. He settled down and got married, a year later and it was the best thing that ever happened to him.
Oh, and the kicker, today is his 35th birthday. He lived 34 years, 364 days.
~Brian
34? :( That's horrible...and scary! I am 33. :help:
Sorry for the loss....
sorry to hear Brian.
I got to go riding this weekend, Saturday. Super windy and all of the ditches were full of snow drifts. I was flying 3rd gear about topped out over a chissled field. And jumped into the ditch into a huge snowdrift. the rappy skidded sideways I shot off skidding on my butt, hit the dirt and flew backwards onto my helmet. Right before it happend I noticed a car coming towards my direction, As I looked over to the rappy, it was slowly putting away from me up the edge of the ditch, climbed onto the road. and.... it stopped. One wheel hooked in the ditch she stopped on the shoulder of the road. I sat up, and the car turned at the road before us about 50 yards away.... thank goodness. That was my excitement for the weekend.
Oh got to bake cookies w/ Mrs Clause yesterday. Santa Hat, new lacey red bra, and a sweet thong! :clap: Merry Christmas TO ME!
Damn, now thats how to make her cook. We've done naked dinner a few times.

When lydia bought me the game COD: World at War. It came w/ a free DVD "Enemy at the Gate"
It's a WW2 movie based on a true story about how snipers helped Russia win the war against germany, holding stalingrad.
If you like ww2 history, sniper movies, or just a good action flick. I HIGHLY reccomend it! I'd have never heard of it, if it didn't come w/ the game!
Kinda looking forward to the new war flick about the plot to kill Hitler. Can't remember the name.

wow, that's uncanny. Some of the previews he actually looks goofy in the costume (only because I know he is a whack-job) But that really is cool. Really more interested in the history, and the air battle scenes.

Me too. I made my wife read about it. I studied it in school, and she didn't have a clue. I also made her watch the Pearl Harbor story last night along with the bombing of Bikini Atoll last night. The spokesperson for Allstate Insurance (name skips me) dove to 165 feet on the boats toppled in the second explosion in an expedition to see the ships. It was a re-run, but I love stuff like that.

and I'm on spike and speed on saturday and sunday mornings. :thumbs:
I could watch that Planet Earth discovery channel thing a million times. That is some of the coolest natural footage ever.
there were a couplet hings I wanted to do when I was in high school
A: Astronaught
B: Computer Nerd
C: Storm Chaser
Found out you can't be color blind to be an astronaught.....

Birthday of Dick Butkus!
Dec 9 1967
Jim Morrison, vocalist for the Doors, arrested for immoral exhibition at one of his concerts. The arrest was due to him upsetting police -- he was maced, then made the error of badmouthing police onstage -- not for exposing his weenie.
Dec 9 1971
Indian air force bombs an orphanage in Pakistan, killing 300 children. Way to go!
Dec 9 1994
Surgeon General Joycelyn Elders dismissed after suggesting discussion of masturbation in school classes on sexuality. This gives rise to the euphemistic term "firing the surgeon general."
Dec 9 1997
Actor Christian Slater sentenced to 90 days in jail for battery and being under the influence of a controlled substance. He was arrested August 11 after a cocaine and heroin binge ending with him assaulting an officer. Slater's credits include made-for-TV movie "Living Proof: The Hank Williams Jr. Story".
Dec 9 1999
President Bill Clinton signs legislation outlawing "crush videos," which generally involve women stomping frogs, mice, or other small animals with high heels. This fetish is definitely a niche market.

thoughts go out to his family. That is way too young, and scares me.
No warning signs?
Again, I am sorry for your loss Brian.
You and his family will be in my thoughts and prayers.
Thanks guys.
He had high levels of stress toward the end, and was taking a few medications to counter that. He smoked like a freight train, and loved Red Bull. He was high strung. He was a fierce salesman, often putting up 20+ cars per month. It turns out he had the heart of an old man. He had heart disease.
He would always tell me "I'm going to die a young man, like my dad." I would always get mad at him for saying that. I would tell him he had a wife a nd kids to live for, and he needed to take precautionary steps to see his kids get old. It breaks my heart to know how he raved about his little girl, and now he won't see her grow up.

He had one daughter, McKenna, and the other three were his step daughters. He took them under his wing, much like his own.
Ryan had a wild side to him. I saw a positive change in him after he had a child and got married. I'm glad it happened.

Thats great to hear he go this life in order. Sounds like it happened for a good reason. And he will see his kids grow up, and he'll have a great view of it.
Amen E. :thumbs:
I hope so.
His father died when he was young, and his mother is an alcoholic. He's busted his ass to get ahead.

Yeah, I talked to him last night via phone, between work and moving into his new place he's been really busy. :thumbs:
Well that meeting wasn't what I was expecting. 10 people just lost their job here, no raises and no year end bonuses.
:mad:
Not like I'm too surprised. I've been out of work for weeks.

Silver lining is you are still employed. Don't shake your finger at that. You can find an exit strategy on your own time.

Thats the plan right now. I'll get the word out to everyone here and there. See what comes up. I'll go where the work is if it comes to that.
You going to pursue that one in cali?
I want to talk to him tonight. I don't want to go work there because I NEED a job, I want to go there because he NEEDS me. I just want it to be good for both of us.

Oh, and the thunderstorms last night produced a tornado last night....
... NWS survey results for tornado near Broken Arrow...
A National Weather Service team investigated the area northeast of
Broken Arrow this morning. Based on damage assessments and radar
data... it was determined an EF1 tornado occurred at 1136 PM. A
Mobile home and barn were destroyed near 43rd street south and
21oth street east. Along 209th street east from 43rd street south
to 48th street south... six power poles were snapped. Wind speeds
were estimated to be 100 miles an hour. The tornado was on the
ground for approximately one half mile... and was 50 yards wide.
Spring one day, winter the next.
Gotta love this time of year. I remember a few years ago sitting in a closet due to tornado sirens going off.

Today in history...
Dec 10 1520
The heretic Martin Luther burnt the papal bull issued by Leo X, titled "Exsurge Domine", demanding an end to his heresies. Luther had published 95 points against the practice of granting indulgences, and the Catholic Church only had 94 points in favor of them. Although technically he was the winner, Luther was subsequently excommunicated.

Dec 10 1958
Ralph Muller and Peter Kamenoff, two ex-members of the Fountain of the World religious cult, accost guru Krishna Venta at the cult's hillside compound in Box Canyon, Ventura County, California. The men accuse Venta of having fucked their wives. For whatever reason Venta, the reincarnation of and formerly known as Francis Pencovic, is unable to placate the men. So they detonate 20 sticks of dynamite they brought, 19 of which are strictly overkill. The three men are instantly blown to pieces along with 7 other cultees. Venta's remains are only ever identified through dental records.

I have seen that show. I just don't feel safe walking across frozen lakes. Let alone driving a truck. I guess I'm just paranoid that I would find the thin spot in the ice.

No thanks, I'll pass on ice.
I remember the first time I was out in a fish house and you hear a truck drive buy. Nothing but ice cracking... that's all you hear. And it's amplified in the fish house.
you couldnt pay me to drive my truck out across a forzen lake.
Why? ???
dang southerner's. Ain't you never seen Ice Truckers on Discovery?
It's not that bad. My bro and I last year took the quads down the river, that was sweet. 4th-5th gear just flyin. Rode what would normally be on trails a 30 min ride to the next town, took us maybe 10. :grin_nod:
I have seen that show. I just don't feel safe walking across frozen lakes. Let alone driving a truck. I guess I'm just paranoid that I would find the thin spot in the ice.
yeah.. difference between you and me.
I grew up on a pond basically. Skating every winter on the pond or lake. I've been in the river helping my cousin fish out his sunk snowmobile from skipping water 3 different times. nothin like goin in water thats..... 32-33 degrees and having to dive under water to hook a tow rope. ::)

Yeah, but they can only drive those roads like 2 months of the year.
doesn't matter where I'm at, all ice scares the crap out of me.
We had an ice storm ten years ago that knocked power out for 30-45 days for some people.

Busy today. :(
Socals predicament yesterday got me thinking. better keep my nose clean. :lol: In more ways than one....
same here, I was not impressed with their response this morning. Everything was still shitty on my way in. And the snow stopped around 10 last night, no reason they couldn't get it cleaned up.
And work sucks today, still have nothing to do and people are talking. Stupid people and their rumors.
Talking behind closed doors?
~Brian
That sucks E.
Haven't you guys been busy lately? Or was the airport the last big thing on the agenda?
I was crazy busy before with the airport but that is up and running. Phase 2 might end up on the back burner but we'll see. You guys know how it is for me, crazy busy one day and nothing to do the next.
And no closed door meeting yet Brian, just rumors. I'm not worried, just sick of moving.
this week is going by slow. :(

Just got this in an email....I'm sure it's not 100% accurate, but it is funny.
Two California Highway Patrol Officers were conducting speeding enforcement on I-15, just north of the Marine Corps Air Station at Miramar . One of the officers was using a hand held radar device to check speeding vehicles approaching the crest of a hill. The officers were suddenly surprised when the radar gun began reading 300 miles per hour. The officer attempted to reset the radar gun, but it would not reset and then turned off.
Just then a deafening roar over the treetops revealed that the radar had in fact locked on to a USMC F/A-18 Hornet which was engaged in a low flying exercise near the location.
Back at the CHP Headquarters the Patrol Captain fired off a complaint to the USMC Base Commander. The reply came back in true USMC style:
Thank you for your letter. We can now complete the file on this incident.
You may be interested to know that the tactical computer in the Hornet had detected the presence of, and subsequently locked on to your hostile radar equipment and automatically sent a jamming signal back to it, which is why it shut down.
Furthermore, an Air-to-Ground missile aboard the fully armed aircraft had also automatically locked on to your equipment location.
Fortunately, the Marine Pilot flying the Hornet recognized the situation for what it was, quickly responded to the missile system alert status and was able to override the automated defense system before the missile was launched to destroy the hostile radar position.
The pilot also suggests you cover your mouths when cussing at them, since the video systems on these jets are very high tech.
Sergeant Johnson, the officer holding the radar gun, should get his dentist to check his left rear molar. It appears the filling is loose. Also, the snap is broken on his holster.
Thank you for your concern.

Dec 11 1957
Rocker Jerry Lee Lewis marries his jailbait 13 year old cousin, Myra Gail Brown. Myra's parents are not told of their coupling until the story was broken by the press the following year. Lewis neglects to divorce his wife Jane Mitcham until April 1958.
I bet she was hot and a very "mature" 13 year old though. :lol:

w/ an agressive track AND long studs, it wouldn't take much to turn the grass to dirt. We haven't had sleds at my parents place for what will be 2 years this winter @ my parents place. You can still see solid track marks in the grass where we just TORE it up. :lol:

And, and I told Don too, because they've moved my desk four times already this year, and I used to be over by the window, and I could see the squirrels, and they were married, but then, they switched from the Swingline to the Boston stapler, but I kept my Swingline stapler because it didn't bind up as much, and I kept the staples for the Swingline stapler and it's not okay because if they take my stapler then I'll set the building on fire...

And, and I told Don too, because they've moved my desk four times already this year, and I used to be over by the window, and I could see the squirrels, and they were married, but then, they switched from the Swingline to the Boston stapler, but I kept my Swingline stapler because it didn't bind up as much, and I kept the staples for the Swingline stapler and it's not okay because if they take my stapler then I'll set the building on fire...
I'm literally dying over here.....

Got it working. I have one nice aluminum case and two crappy metal ones. I just got new mobo/cpu/ram so I needed to vacate the good case but after I moved my old setup I got missing BIOS and CMOS errors. Installed the latest bios but it turns out the new bios version didn't support the onboard LAN or RAID. I had spent hours trying to figure out why the device manager couldn't see the onboard devices. Had to back up 4 versions to find a stable/working one. Installed a few onboard drivers and all is well.
I think the Steel Reserve 24 ouncers helped :)

Not really, but Socal thinks I am. :lol:
come on get it peels
be a man and get a 700 :confused:
but i guess you may not be able to handle it ???
I think my 660 has more torque than a three mod 700.
~Brian
word Brian. :thumbs:
The 700 is a much more docile quad. 660 is not very forgiving and takes a very smooth touch or you are upside-down. i was sort of underwhelmed when I rode the 700 for the first time. Easy ride, smooth power. Not as big of a torque spike. Sure, you mod them and they are better, but not hard to handle.
:P :lol:

Completely different gearing and power curve. The 700 is silky smooth, the 660 is more spikey with power

We don't have a torque "curve", it is a 90 degree cliff at 5500 rpm. My grab bar will attest! :lol:

I'm sure $$ is tight for you just like everyone else, but perhaps sending her on a short Cali vacation to see her family and friends might be good for her until you guys can get more permenent plans in order?

I think its still a good idea, she needs a chance to get out there to see everyone. No matter where I live someone is going to be upset....weather its living there and having my parents/family being pissed or living here and having Jenee' be depressed. But if I left now I would always wonder if it could get better it we gave it time. What sucks is I tried to talk to my parents last night and they can't even try to be a little understanding. They just see it from a biased view of wanting us here. And if we were to leave they would see it as a mistake and would do major damage to our relationship. This shit storm I've landed in sure sucks. These are the days I wish I still drank, I could really use something right now.
its in the 60's today after it snowed 3"s or so on Friday
60 yesterday at noon. Took my boys and their new puppy for a walk to the park. 6 am this morning...0 damned degrees! :mad:

I know how that goes, fortunately for me I had my military requirements to blame it on. No one ever wants to be at odds with family. Ever. However, your going to spend 99% of your life with Jenee' and the kids, so there happiness is the priority IMO. Your folks are good people, but your responsiblity lies with Jenee', Owen, and your new daughter first. As much as your folks will dislike you moving, I think you already know where you would be happiest.

Hit the 50's yesterday. Melted all the snow and turned everything to mud. Now it looks even worse. Rained last night and then turned to ice so the roads are shit.

Yep, was 3 when I got up and everything was an ice cube. Wind was blasting like crazy and the ice was popping everywhere.

Her dad and two brothers. You know how we feel about the one brother but the other brother is doing ok, he's having a girl a few weeks before us. Her dad is just ok. But she is really close to her aunt and uncle (the one that wants me to come work for him). But we did hang out with one family out there that took us in as one of them. We did everything with them. Christmas morning we were right there with them around the tree. Jenee' sees the two girls as her sisters, and their husbands, Bob and Eric, and been like brothers to me.

The big trouble is We could do it, but it would require two full incomes, and I am not comfortable leaving my little one in an unfamiliar place. When they are older, maybe things will be different. :thumbs: I know my wife is into it, but she has the same reservations. By the time the kids are gone, I bet we are outta here.

I think you would be shocked to see that you can do it on one income out there now. Prices have really fallen in socal. If the kids are in school it would be fine because your wife could do something while they are away at school. Jenee's friend Misty cuts hair, Jenee' does quickbooks and her friend Amy babysits.
No room for back yard methlabs though... :rolleyes:
they don't do it at home. Most hid a shack up in the mountains or out in palmdale.

you do need to look at southern cali. You're too "normal" to live up in norcal. Bunch of frickin tree huggers.
Love the Oceano area. Pismo, Arroyo Grande, Paso Robles, SanLuis Obispo. That is where we are looking. Mom's side all lives in that area. Great people.
Uncle on my dad's side lives in the high desert. I like the weather, but the area is pretty disgusting. Outskirts of riverside. It is like Cali's version of SE Ia. Sans the trees. And double the Mexicans. :lol:

She works now, only because my parents enjoy watching their grandkids. And she has a less stressful job. If we move out there, I fear it would be too much. Quite the opposite of your situation.
She did work for a company out of Chicago. Have I ever told you guys what they did?
She was regional Manager for 8 stores. From Des Moines to Bloomington. Guess what the stores were?
Adult book stores!!! That company owned 60 stores across the country. Big Business. You wanna talk about ties to the Mafia in Chicago? :lol: She made killer money, but long hours, lot's of emergency travel.
Porn is not really a kid friendly industry. :lol: Funny to think about it having the same chain of command as other businesses. :lol:
There are a ton of things that she could do to make cash while the kids are away at school. She'll find something. Just get a place with a guest bedroom, I love it up there.

Love the Oceano area. Pismo, Arroyo Grande, Paso Robles, SanLuis Obispo. That is where we are looking. Mom's side all lives in that area. Great people.
Uncle on my dad's side lives in the high desert. I like the weather, but the area is pretty disgusting. Outskirts of riverside. It is like Cali's version of SE Ia. Sans the trees. And double the Mexicans. :lol:
First time my wife saw a Spanish Language Movie theatre. :lol: We were thinking of seeing a movie.
Perris was the name of the town. Very dirty. No grass grows, when it rains, it is a mess of sand and mud.
Perris is about 45 southeast of where I was. No way I would ever live out there. If you want to be down that way let me know, I could find work for you.

Yeah, I was getting signs of a cold last week, loaded up on Zicam and Orange Juice. Got nothin but a minor runny nose. I can handle that... If they can find a cure for the flu -via shot. why can't they cure the damned common cold.

Did you know you can't drink orange juice half hour before or after taking Zicam? The citrus cancels out the PH of zicam.

Yep, a big one, but I am not depressed, or have a family member that can't stand it here. I just want to move because I love it out there. Will be making a visit soon. I bet my priorities change rapidly then. :lol:
I'm not depressed, I just really miss it out there. But Jenee' has it bad and that is a ton of weight on my shoulders. Its been stressful knowing how she feels.

6 here. And a major storm on the way. :(
by noon here. I will have the rappy out on the streets. :thumbs: We'll see if they change the municipal code eventually because of me.
"considerable snow coverage" is how it is worded. :lol:
Who knows what we'll get, but I looked at the radar and it looks like we are going to get hit hard. My friends are in big bear today tearing up the slopes, 2 feet of fresh powder.
Just looked at the winter storm warning for big bear, looks like they are going to get hit again with another 6-14 inches above 4000 feet tonight.
We got freezing rain last night, so everything is slicker than greased owl shit.
I cross 18 bridges a day one way, and the biggest bridge goes across the Arkansas River and is at least 100 feet tall. Needless to say it was a little hairy on my 32.8 mile trek this morning.
~Brian
Todays drive was ok, just cold. Tonight and tomorrow are going to suck.
Currently 7F (-4 windchill) at ORD.
Today
Mostly cloudy. Snow in the afternoon. Snow accumulation of 2 to 4 inches. Highs in the lower 20s. Lowest wind chill readings 5 below to 15 below zero in the morning. East winds around 10 mph.
Tonight
Snow in the evening...then a chance of snow after midnight. Additional snow accumulation of 1 to 2 inches. Total snow accumulation 3 to 5 inches. Lows 17 to 21...except in the lower 20s downtown. East winds 10 to 15 mph in the evening shifting to the south...then shifting to the west during the predawn hours. Chance of precipitation 100 percent.
Damn, sounds like a great day for the gorcery stores, but a shitty day for you commuters.
~Brian
whats up guys? its sitting at about 37
I'd never believe a forecast though not dealing with snow.. Every one they've predicted has fallen WAAAAAAAAY short of what they say..
Duluth (right on lake superior) was supposed to get 10-16" of the white stuff sunday night... they got 7" total...
We were supposed to get 4-6"... I think we MAYBE have 2". :rolleyes:
They are spot on dealing w/ the temps though. ::)
Ooohh, and it got colder:
Bitter cold this morning with 8 A.M. temperatures around -9 below (wind-chill -23 below)

we did have days it would hit above 100. But by the time I got home from work it would be back down and we would be outside grilling out shooting hoops. Are you going to do that when you get home?

Shooting hoops? Brrrrrrr.... :lol:

fish house :lol: That is fun too, but you are stuck there. The valley out in Socal, you can drive 2-3 hrs and be in 5 different climates. :thumbs:
1000x better? You are full of shit or you are just sick. :lol:
I bet we would see 15 days a year where we would hit over 100 during the day. Some years even less, but when I got home from work it would be down to 80's.
I'll take grilling out in the nice weather any day over your ice shack.

No one must want to talk to me today, I can't get any of my family or my co-workers to answer the phone, and when I turn to the internet (sad I know) everyone is offline doing their jobs :lol:
I have a work question...I have 41hrs of combined vacation/sick time that I have to burn between now and year's end or I lose it. Our company gets Christmas day as a holiday. New year's is too, but I realize that's next year.
So is it better to take all of next week off and either this friday or the monday after christmas or to take the second half of next week (W-F) off and then take all of the week after off (using 1 vaca day from 2009)?
I'm going out of town for Christmas, but the festivities are held on Christmas day only.
Burn it next week. I wouldn't want to burn a day of 2009's vacation the other way.
~Brian
Like Brian said, I'd go for next week and run into the following week. :thumbs:
I couldn't pick one item to comment on.. All I can say is today is a bloody day in history. so many massacre's/mass deaths. :(
It's a great day if you're an aviation nut or Simpson's fan.....Today is the birthday of powered flight, and Bart Simpson's listed birthday.

Those things make it a great day in history. But as far as today goes its cold as shit outside. Tons of snow and freezing rain on the way for tomorrow night.
We finally got above freezing.
Thunderstorms tomorrow, and we may see some sunshine on Friday through partly cloudy skies.
~Brian
Gonna be warm enough there to get icey rain?
Sunny today, high of 10. Snow tomorrow through sunday. highs through the weekend around 20 :thumbs:
I got your picture too.
Looks cold!!!!!!!!
Brrrrrrr.
~Brian
yup, high of 32 tomorrow.
whats up guys? hows work going?
Last night sucked. Was the worst driving day I've had this year.
main interstate 1-5mph max. :(
Took me 55 mins to get home. (8 miles)
Damn!
I hit 75 mph on the interstate, but slowe down and coasted over bridges last night because they were slick. Took me about 50 minutes to go 32 miles.
~Brian
ouch dude that sucks. good to hear ya made it home okay though
Just take it easy. that's all people have to do.
Drive in today wasn't to bad. There was an over turned semi on the main highway I take, but it was cleaned up by the time I got there
last week was bad. 3.2 miles and it took me over an hour. Last night I went a back way and I was home in 20.

I made a post in the thread on RF about the mod position. I said my vote goes to dracus.
I'm guessing MD is saying he can pretend I'm not back on the forum but Stewie may see that and figure out that its me. So I deleted the post.

what did you get the european vesion..
To ensure a PG-13 rating, two lines were changed in the US version:
Original: "You all are about as useful as a cock-flavored lollipop" US: "You all are about as useful as a poopie-flavored lollipop."
Original: "It's like watching a bunch of idiots trying to FERK a doorknob!" US: "It's like watching a bunch of idiots trying to hump a doorknob!"
Original: "Sometimes you gotta grab life by the haunches and FERK it into submission." US: "Sometimes you gotta grab life by the haunches and hump it into submission."
I own the movie, and that's what my version says.
My version also says "f*ck a doorknob".
~Brian
Never heard of a different version. Just watched it the other day. This is the quote of the day.
"It's like watching a bunch of idiots trying to f ck a doorknob!"

Nope, post was for krandall...specifically to say that Michigan is better than Minnesota because we hold the nationals more years than not. :P

the 28" trailer and more importantly the propane heaters, salamanders and generators it housed are all gone...so no camping out at the races for me unless someone's bringing a motorhome :)
well WTH...... :(
Driving a motorhome there would be huge $$$ in gas alone.
I know, we used to have one with a dodge 440. but it was warm.
I will go watch the nationals, like I did last year. But drunk and in the warmth of a blanket in the stands, shouting about how much faster I am than all of them if only I could have been bothered to race. ;)
