Thanks for the support everyone

I think it's about time to start looking for a new job. I had a customer threaten me on a table tonight and I'm the one who got the boot. So, I am going to get my ducks in a row, find a new job in a new place, and fire up the old Johnny Paycheck song as I make tracks.

Between Laughlin and Kingman would be best. (I have personal reasons for that area )

Well, time to go to bed. Gotta start looking when I get up.

Good Monday morning everyone,

I hope you enjoyed your weekend.

The races went well & there was only 1 accident (1 too many)! The guys engine blew & spewed oil all over the track. Te lost control & slammed the wall! The driver was not injured, just pissed/worried that he wrecked dads car! Dad wasn't to upset. He said, "The car is replacable... my son isn't"

Bruce - I'm glad you made it down to the rally. Now you know how important it is to help support Nevadas Wild Horses & Burros & why we do what we do. Kinda upsetting what their doing to them, huh? Maybe we should pass a law to send the State Legislature people to the Fallon Livestock Yard instead of the horses?!

Jeff - Congratulations! WTG! WOOHOO! I'm proud of you.

I don't know how the work scene is around Golden Valley, but things are looking better in Vegas. Home prices are still cheap, and interest rates are too good to pass up.

Morning everyone,

Have a Totally Tubular Tuesday dudes!

You guys are too funny... thanks for the compliments! Don't worry, a new avatar will be up next month so you guys won't have to take cold showers or get distracted anymore. LOL!

William - The guy couldn't see me, so it was probably his wife flashing him! LOL!

Dave - I have a patch on my leather vest (for Street Vibrations this weekend) that says... " Retired Firefighter - The fire is out, but I'm still smokin'" Jimmy picked it out for me.

Bruce - Hope the wood is gone by now?!
Have a great day!

Question Of The Day?

Question of the day...

Is anyone going to Virginia City this Saturday between 10am - 3pm to watch all the woman flashing everyone to earn their bead necklaces & check out all the bikes?


We're going! I'm not taking my bike though - I wouldn't be able to participate. I'll be on the back of Jimmy's Harley!
We'll probably only go from 10am - 1pm, because we're celebrating Jimmy's 50th birthday on Saturday as well & we'll have to get home to get things ready for his BBQ/Party at 3pm.
Hope to see you there! I'll try to remember to bring the camera again...like last year.
