Ive painted some T111 before, and like mark said you can get a roller for it to work, its still not a easy/fast as a sprayer but its better then using a brush.

Logan goes to the vet today... his back left leg has been giving him trouble and now he doesn't always put weight on it.. he'll be 8 this December 5th and Akita's aren't long-lived dogs... which massively sucks.

Hope everyone has an awesome day!!
Sorry to hear about your dog, Thats part of the reason I got my coonhound. The average life is somthing like 12 yrs.

Hope you hear about that job soon, I know waiting to hear back stinks.

However, I've just about had my fill with this "read and study and memorize material" training regimen I've been on for nearly three weeks now. I'm ready to hit the field and start getting some cash coming into the bank account!!

I know... patience. I'll start getting a few pennies next week, though, and it will be a very welcome thing.
Good luck with you new career Pete, if I lived near you Id buy some oil from you.

OH. I like learning the meaning behind words, lol. And when sewing, that's all that really matters.

Next up: running boards going black... again!!
Good, keep yourself busy. They'll call at the worst possible time when you're neck deep in a project.

I just got the refinishing part of my running board project done, and even though I "geared up" (gloves, breather, etc.) I still now feel like crap... good thing I'm unemployed! I'm off to make some food, grab my book and a drink, and soak in the tub!

Hey peoples. How is everyone?

Watched the Twins get spanked by the Yankees last night. Hopefully they do better Friday.

Hope the pup and you feel better Brendan.

I haven't sewn anything since high school but we don't currently even own a sewing machine.

Good morning...glad the corn dog story grossed y'all out. Try cleaning it up......something you have been fretting over in life somehow seem less important when you are cleaning up crap covered carnival food.

It is raining like crazy here. But rain brings good things so I need not gripe.
Going to be a cold winter and it looks like I am stuck here for a few more months. OMG hell has become a reality.
We did get news that Holland was chosen to go to Spain and France for two weeks in june 2010 with 11 other kids from her school district. Her dad is freaking but being supportive. Im nervous but I am jazzed for her.

Mark I am glad pup is doing okay and thank you for getting her spayed. I hate dog owners who think backyard breeding puppies is cute or kewl for making money, people who think their dogs will be better, healthier, sweeter etc if they have at least one litter etc are so effing lame. So major kudos mark. I wish more pet owners were like you. I have always spayed and neutered/gelded my pets (well except for mares) and will always do so in the future. It is just the responsible thing to do.

What part of Spain? I love that place! It's been 6 years since my last visit, but the people were incredibly friendly. I'm sure everything is planned for them, but if they are going to La Alhambra... WOW is all I can say. It was the last castle of the Moors before they surrendered to the native Spaniards and is incredible.

Your body needs a break. Take it in stride and be a lazy *** and enjoy it.

We're forecasted to maybe get some snow this weekend.

Both.

Even better though is if you replace the tennis ***** on the bottom with racquettballs and spray them with just a bit of pledge. they take off like a dragster then when the pledge wears off...

Holy crap am I evil...

That was funny Lisa!!!
Okay, here's my morning-
Yesterday around 4pm, my wisdom tooth or at least where it used to be last week starting hurting like hell. I popped my last pain pill and it did nothing for me. Called the dentist and he was closed...sweet. ouch. Made it through the night with heavy medication AKA Crown Royal and went in this morning at 7am. After he stabbed me 3 times with a needle that I swear was the size of a 16 penny framing nail, and Im not ashamed to say I shed a tear or two, he yanked something out of there and said "huh thats interesting, never seen this before." I said "seen what?" and he said, "I dont know, I havent seen this before." lol okay doc, I guess you did already say that. So now Im reloaded on percs and antibiotics for another few days. I can take any pain out there, including the smashed up collar bone and 4 ribs 2 summers ago, but anything that has to do with my teeth, jesus Im a baby....Anyways, somehow I feel better telling my friends about it.


Brendan- Fingers are crossed my brother, I hope you get the job. Looking forward to some boarding time with you this winter.

Tristan- I think your at your interview now so best of luck dude. If not, well then blame it on the percs. I am a pill popping ***** as you called me the other day..LMAO!!!!

Ed- Let me know about G2G's with a pm or text or something. I'm sorry to hear about Tom, but envy him for moving to AZ. Julie and I have been talking about moving or at least buying something like a time share there. The rain is getting to me after about 30 years...

I have a friend I met from another site and she is moving up here from AZ after living there her whole life. She's had enough of the heat. She cant handle the rain though so she's hitting up Portland. Should be a better alternative. Like I told you Brendan it rains here just a bit too much for my taste.

I'll be around on and off today. Just loaded up the DVD player with Shooter, Fast and Furious, (the new one) SWAT, Pearl Harbor, and My cousin Vinny. Should be a fun day laying around.
