Yesterday I went to a local casino to place a bet on the seachickens + over. While BSing with the sportsbook guy, I made a couple of Brady jokes and we were both laughing while I placed the bet. Not paying attention and with Brady still on my mind I accidentally placed my bet on patriots and over. While crossing the street, heading toward my truck, I thought to myself "did I say patriots?". Got to my truck and looked at the ticket and sure as hell I bet on the wrong team!!! Arrrg. I was in a hurry to catch the kickoff so I got on the road, ****'d off about the mistake... Well, I won. Next year I'm gonna bet on the team I want to loose. It seems to work better that way, since I usually loose the bet. I think I have a new system for betting.

Did anybody else loose re-taste their hotwings during the 1/2 time show? One of the worst ever, imo. I'd have muted the show (especially the hip hop part with the dancing wizard of oz monkeys) but the wife's nephew seemed to be watching it. I stared at the screen with my jaw dropped like a passerby'r looking at a car wreck. Pretty disgusting.

For some reason I thought the Super Bowl was next weekend. Didn't see any of it. Of course, since the Raiders weren't there, I doubt I would have watched it anyway since I didn't care who won.

Katy actually was not bad, Lenny soso, but when the flying monkeys jumped aboard it sucked big time. What happened to someone like Tom Petty? Hell wasnt it the 90`s before we had these stars(?) who I dont give a flying fu$c about anyway. Suppers ready, gotta go

Just checked the 10 day forecast for the weather here, and it is supposed to rain Friday night, Saturday and Sunday. Going to make moving a pain in the you know what. 70% Friday night, 60% Saturday, and 30% on Sunday.

rain? RAIN?! i don't believe it. yesterday on KCBS (106.9 on the FM dial) they were talking about possible mandatory rationing in the upcoming months if we don't see any more rainfall and usage doesn't see a continual percentage decrease…
rationing. in the bay area. this oughta be good.

hope all is well in your neck of the woods fella's. i know its a ways out but i'm already making plans in the back of my mind for the get-together at pismo bch. (if thats where its located this year)

cheers

I don't know why places like San Francisco don't explore desalinization to either replace the need for Sierra water or at least take some of the burden off, maybe for utility use. All that water out there, just too salty to use. Other countries do it.

It was not one of my favorite shows... She was nice to look at if nothing else though...

That's gonna be the future. It's going to need to be the way things have been going. I hear Santa Barbara is working on a giant desalinization project that's supposed to revolutionize things.

Placed this in wanted section, but that section doesn't get monitored apparently so I will make my request here as well. I am in need of a E4OD (Used of course) for a 1990 460 gas engine. Any year will work between 1989 and 1998, but prefer a 94 or higher. Let me know, if you know of one available for sale. Person I bought the truck from will be able to pay for it next month, so anytime between now and then if one pops up I would appreciate a holler.
