Odd 'fact' - I worked in Cheyenne, WY for about 16 months and during the summer the good looking women were MIA. Come winter though, they came out! Nothing, and I mean NOTHING in the warm months, but let it get cold and "BOING" there's a hottie in Wal-Mart... "BOING", there's one coming out of Texas Roadhouse... "BOIOIOINGGGG" there's a SUPER hot Mommie filling up her SUV!!! Still, I don't miss the place.
Mornin folks!
Christmas was a blast, good food, great family, and If anyone suggests going to see "Marley and Me" , just to let you know it is a tear jerker. it is the modern day equivalant to "Old Yeller". The first hour and a half was FUNNY, the last 30 minutes was terribly sad. I am not to big of a man to admit that I cried. If you are a dog lover it will get to you.

On a up-note, I went to see "Yes Man" with Jim Carey. He's looking old but it was friggin' HYSTERICAL!! "Bedtime Stories" looks kinda cheesey but funny too, so that's on my list.... for when I'm not snowboarding!!

I've never heard it called "Boxing Day" although I'd imagine if I was out in it long enough, I'd understand where that name came from!
I might poke around online, and see what sales are going... but I'm thinking I might spring for some Wet Okole seat covers for Nyx. I've got balljoints already waiting in a box at home. I'm highly inclined to STAY AWAY from all shopping areas today.

Congratulations on the new addition.
Is that your dad holding him?
With as bad as I've been feeling for the past couple of months several friends have suggested I knock off this drinking all of the pop and fruit juice I've been drinking since I quit the case a day of beer almost 6 months ago. I have probably been drinking an equal amount of pop or juice and feel like chit. So today I started on coffee first thing in the morning, but from then on just filtered tap water. I probably drank my first glass of water today in 25 or 30 years. What do y'all think of this idea?
It is to your body the equivilent of a fresh oil change for your engine.
It won't run without it.
I would not pay a nickel for that damn bottled water. Some of these Yuppie idiots, probably the same ones that patronize such ripoff joints as Starbucks will pay a dollar or more for a bottle water that they're lucky if it is even filtered tap water. I have been laughing about it for years. I am using one of those Brita pitchers and filters. Next long drive I take I will fill up a bunch of bottles with that stuff. But when I meet up with Jim and Chris in Florida I will probably be due for a beer or 2.
So I go buy cases of Crystal Geyser. I don't care if it costs, I need water but I cannot drink the stuff that comes out of the tap!
i ain't rite

I'm one of those idiots who has a budget for bottled water. Tap water here in Seattle tastes like the inside of an iron pipe combined with algae from a swamp. I can hardly stomach the stuff.

same here Dan. but i get the bottled water from either BJ's or Costco. and no name brand either!!
$5.39 for 35 1/2 liter bottles.
at only 16 cents a bottle, it ain't that bad.

Morning/afternoon everyone!
Sheldon, have fun shopping today. I might go shopping later with my mom so I feel your pain......
Dan, I am with you. Tap water here in Az is crap, my girls and I won't drink it. I went and bought a water cooler and 3 5gal bottles. It cost me $3.75 to fill the 3 of them at the water n ice near my house.
Mark, how are you doing on the new meds you got this month?
Az Mark, hope you got some great sunrise pics!
