Reading them is pretty entertaining too...


(ok that's it I'm closing my browser)

 

damn it....

 

Well, tonight its new pads, calipers, rotors, rubber lines, bearings, seals, shoes, drums and rear wheel studs for my buddy's '78 F100.

Tomorrow I hope to finish sealing up my 318, and putting some Clarions in another buddy's Expidition Then go by Harbor Freight to pick up a load leveler for my cherry picker, and go get my tranny (the Expidition buddy washed it for me )

Then "hopefully" Sunday I'll be dropping the engine/tranny back in the Belvedere...

That's the plan, but you never know...

 

As far as what I am doing, I will be in bed recovering from a biopsy I have to have later today in a place y'all don't want to know about. That's gonna be fun.

Hersh . . . about education:

While you are right about going to college right after H.S. let me share something with ya that might make you more grateful for how you are doing the school thing now.

After imprisonment in a college prep all boys catholic school, run by a tyrannical renegade group of sadomasochists posing as The Brothers of the Holy Cross, I went straight into college. My father, deciding he wanted me to learn the value of a dollar refused to pay for any of it. I went to school full time (16 to 20 units per quarter) and worked full time (40 hrs a week). I look back on it and am still not sure how I pulled that off. Back then I neither appreciated the education I was getting, and had no love for school.

Some 20 odd years after graduating I returned to grad school at the age of 42 or so and got a masters. I was fortunate enough that I could go to school full time and not work. What I found though is that I LOVED school this time around and really appreciated my education and got so much more out of it.

For you to be doing the education thing as an adult is great, and I am sure that you are getting much more out of it than you would as someone in their 20's. In the end, it's much better this way.

So I say congratulations on doing it as an adult!!!! You will benefit from it so much more this way and enjoy it so much more. Sure, it's hard work, but in a great way!

 

Just a few I would recommend.

HACKER-PSCHORR


BLUEMOON


WARSTEINER


All three are very good.

Beer - I don't get it. It all tastes like crap to me.

(As opposed to tasting like carp) (Hi Vader )

 

You move the chair to vacuum??????


Whoa, back up....... you vacuum??????

 

Then you must be drinking typical american watered down crap. Find a nice German wheat beer, pour it in a glass and enjoy.

If you want to try something a little different, get some Blue Moon, slice an orange into round slices( not wedges, I hate wedges...LOL) squeeze a little of the juice in the glass,throw the orange slice in and pour the Blue Moon on top. Now thats a great tasting beer

Thanks Kobi and Jamz!

Yeah, it's tough, but you're right. Had I gone when I was 18, I probably woudl have done just like I did in High School, go through the motions, doign just enough to get an A, and not really applying myself or retaining what I learned... Then again, had I gone to college (And I even had football scholarships ~Ole Miss, MIss State, and NLU~ I wanted to go to Grambling and play for Eddie Robinson.) But, seeing all the "@$$" walking around GSU, I'd probably still be there, in my 19th year, still undeclared on my major.

Now, just as you said, I car about my grades, and actually retain what I'm learning. although it's still nice to see all the "@$$" I'm not as distracted by it, as I would be if I were still single, and in the same mindset I had from 17 -27.

 

This is what I'll be doing this weekend, driving approx 200 miles to go bass fishing. Have a nice weekend everyone.

 

I'll be prepping us to head up on Monday for a nice two week vacation at our place up in the mountains.

1st real vacation in a couple of years, so you can image how jazzed we are.

 

He sure does! And he's really good at it too. I've hired Raoul to clean my house a few times and he loves his work! Here's a pic of him doing the vacumming thing:



See. Happy vacuuming.

 

Regardless....feces or fish...I'm not drinking it.

Never had a beer that tasted good to me and have no interest in acquiring the appreciation for it.

(ok back to work.)

 

I don't drink. All alcohol tastes alike to me. There is a different taste to many things, but there is also this underlying taste to all alcoholic beverages that is just AWFUL. I can smell it in wine, beer, anything. Same exact smell and taste and all of it bad. Beer is the worst. That bad underlying taste and then just the bad taste of beer to top it off.

And I can't believe how expensive drinks are. Had dinner at Flemming's the other night. Got my friend a glass of some wine and it was 12.95 . . . for a glass! (They had bottles of some wine over 500 bucks! Sorry, but no drink is worth that).

The beauty of not liking booze . . . I''ve probably saved eleventy kabillion dollars over my lifetime. Sweet!

 

I like how white girls are getting the round rumps now-a-days...

I mean, I really like it....

Raoul, you missed a spot!
