Leo, I think once I get to Iowa, you me and Randy should go out and have a few drinks or something.
You are like the energizer bunny...you keep going and going and going and going. You make ME tired.
Hey Danny! It's been a busy day so far. My parents were in town today, so I spent the late morning and afternoon with them. Went to lunch at Chili's and just hung out at the house for a while. Started feeling a little ill after they left and ended up falling asleep on the couch for about an hour. Gotta get rested up though, because I've got my buddy Tim coming in about 30 min from now, from out of town to visit and stay at the house tonight. I don't want to be a bad host! He used to live here for a while too, so I'm sure he's going to want to head out for a little bit once the MU football game is over. I had a few minutes, so I figured I'd check in.
Completely with ya, Mark. Below 60 and I start to get uncomfortable. I have thought before that something might not be right with me, because my fingers get cold easily and get really stiff, and I start to shiver way before most are even cold.
We gotta be kin, it gets in the 40's the tips of my fingers start getting blue and I still can't stand to wear gloves. That's one of the reasons I gave up the smokes because it was killing my circulation so badly.
Man, the fancy stuff y'all have today. But I notice that says the "soldier" sits up higher. I suppose the 0311 grunts don't get stuff like that.
Mark- all of my BTT (border transition team) is made up of air wingers, except for 1 comm guy and one motor t guy. So one of us will be up in the turret with either a .50 cal or 240G (.308 machine gun that replced the M60)

Cover your a$$ and come back safe. All our thoughts will be with you. I think Izzy just got back from the sandbox...
I've been over once and yeah it is a PITA to keep a wepon serviceable, let alone clean. Once after driving about 60 miles mostly on hardball, I tried to rack a round in my M-16 and the damn bolt was so caked up it wouldn't move! My M9 was scarred to all hell from sand in the slide....
Wanna race? I'll take a shot at getting the best of you. Nice way to handle those D-Max boys!
Uggg...I remember potty training the pups. Two of them at once made for a lot of messes for a little while. Hope the kids get well soon.
I would say bring it on, but I know I would get my *** handed to me. Might be fun to play around for a bit though.
Thanks, the girls are doing okay. Madass just has a head cold and Ry has strep, fun fun.
Bil is getting the whole potty training thing pretty quickly!

Indeed, I think that one would be a losing battle.
Jeremy, did you ever get your Smarty hooked up and operable? Last I read you were waiting on programming, or something...oh heck I don't freakin remember.
****, I have SOMETIMERS!
Ok who is good at massages. I need a friggin massage. My left shoulder is bugging me. My trap muscles and upper back muscles are always rock hard, but I'd bet I have a big knot back there somewhere.
Thanks, the girls are doing okay. Madass just has a head cold and Ry has strep, fun fun.
Bil is getting the whole potty training thing pretty quickly!
That could be fun.
Glad to hear the girls are doing ok. Strep is no fun. I used to get it every single year, from the time I was about 8 until sometime in college. It got to the point Mom knew the symptoms well enough that my doctor wouldn't even test me, just write the scrip for the meds.
Hopefully Bil picks up on it quicker than my dogs did!

The Smarty is working ok, but I'm still waiting on the necessary programming to get over the 2K rev limit on first start. The guy I need to get the program from has been at the SEMA show for the last two weeks. Should be able to get in touch with him this week. It's no big deal though, it's something that I can pretty easily drive around.
That's funny Mark, but damn it's also SOOO wrong!!!
It's also so fake, if I were to go to all that trouble I'd have done a better job than that. I think I've seen that same fat man stark naked sitting at his computer with a caption saying "why women should not make dates online"
