No complains from you on show and tell, that ain't fair and both you and I know why.
I was pissed but in the end glad I didn't get the job, they treated her like crap.

I don't think there is anything wrong with calling and letting her know that she was great, I don't know if I would say anything about the company though. Just my thoughts.

What are the rest of us missing??? Jeremey and I are the official picture approvers.

The closest Ive ever gotten to wakeboarding is selling all that stuff. I used to be a dealer for Skylon. All the wakeboarding towers and jazz. Real expensive hobby, starting with the boat!

Well I finally did it. I'm caught up now (except there will probably be several more posts by the time I finish typing this).

I had the biggest scare I've had in a long time tonight. We got a couple of dogs last weekend from the pound since our dog is around 16 or 17 now. We were hoping the dog could show the new ones the ropes (where to go/not go, when to bark, what to chase off, etc.), but since they're new, we've been locking them up in a pen at night so they don't wander off. All's been well except for one cat that doesn't care for the new dogs. We haven't seen him/her around much (no I don't know which it is, or even it's name).

Well tonight my wife noticed a car on our road driving real slow, then stop and turn off the headlights. This is a country road with no houses in the area the car stopped, so it was a cause for concern. I walked outside to drive down there and investigate. As I got outside, the lights came back on and the car drove off. Turned out to be a neighbor's truck down the road, so no big deal.

In the moonlight I saw the black cat that has made itself so scarce these last few days standing about 20' from me. I walked toward it, and it walked toward me. It wasn't until I was about 2' from it and bending down that I realized the little black cat was actually a skunk.

I'm happy to announce that I can still move pretty quick, and I'm not currently in need of a shower. I will admit I'm having second thoughts about keeping the new dogs penned up at night.
Great story man!! The joys of living in the country eh!

What did ya do to your knee that you cant run as well as ya used too?
