I still have the same torch. I used to carry it in my little Craftman's tool box in the trunk of my 65 Mustang. I have several others but that one is my favorite, it warmed up my feet on one cold night stuck in the SNOW.

 

Looks like we have a new comrad. Where you from and what do you do Johnboy?

 

Goin to Cincy for the winter. Gonna work a normal 40 hour work week for a while. Hang out with old friends.
Most importantly, hang out with his little brunette I met thru my wife.

 

Ryan, I thought you had to take a test tommorrow? Never live in a homeowners association, I would rather live in a mobile home on the top of a mountain.

 

Wow.....someone who works an 8 hour night shift. Thats not something you see everyday.
Welcome to the vanquished night shift. Pick any of the definitions...they all apply one way or another.

 

Does your wife know about this?

 

Yea.....its our daughter.

 

I work an 8 hour night shift. On the occasion I'll work more if someone takes off or calls in sick. Usually about once per week someonw ill take a day off, rarely does someone, other than a certain someone, call in sick.

 

Funny, I'm still laughing.

Kind of like Friday evening on my way home I had two really cute blonde girls in my truck with me. They were both of my nieces, aged 11 and 2.

 

That's a good one peppy.

 

Haha... ya, I have a test tomorrow.. but since my usual sleep time is about 5 hours... I'd say I'll be doing pretty good if I get 6 tonight. Plus, I work better on less sleep (comes form practice during high school, honors classes )

I think I'm all caught up on what's been going on since I kept not seeing the new posts (damn refresh isn't working right for some reason...)

Rick... you have to show us the pic that girl sent you. I bet you'd love to get a piece of that hot a... apple pie!

And with the sucking a golf ball through a garden hose comment... I suddenly want to start quoting from Full Metal Jacket, but I think all my quotes would have to be edited severely, so I'll restrain myself.

And yes, Mike... never, ever live in a homeowners association - we manage them at my work, and, well... just don't live in one if you can help it.

You won't believe the stuff we hear... "My neighbor uses her garage door too much... how can I sleep when she's opening and closing it at 11pm!?!?"

Or there's the classic crazy lady, and we've had a few of them: "Help me! Wild animals came down from the hills, and ate my goldfish from my pond! Then they turned over the lilly pads just to show me that they did it and to be extra mean!!"

Or.... the cat lady... she thinks there's hundreds of cats living in her walls and floors, and she sends in BOOKS of pictures, taking 5-10 pictures a day, of her neighbors that she spies on because they hang clothing up on their balcony, or park cars for 3 or more days at a time...

And last but not least - the lady who called with an emergency, saying she had ghosts in her [female reproductive area].

..... I swear, sometimes my work is kinda crazy, but it makes for some real good, hard laughs.

 

Fine Bird.....rain on my parade. I was reaching out trying not to be the only illegaly over worked freak in this joint...Thats okay, thanks for singling me out.
Fine man, go ahead, treat me like a lepar. Its okay, I'm used to it.

 

Should I go ahead and call whitey's. Tell them to order in more supplies Peppy. Just found out that I will be working at 72 hours a week for the next 2-3 months if not longer. Must save money. NO EBAY!

 

LOL Ryan, check out my pic, I just posted it.

 

Wow, the posts are flying in so fast right now that I keep missing stuff while I'm replying...

Oh, as for the cute nieces and daughters you get to hang out with... you know what they say: "Incest is best!" LOL! (that was just wrong)
