For a guy that's used to work/get paid by the hour...OT mean overtime. But appearantly it means something different in this thread. I'm sure it's something simple and I'll slap my bean for it...but what does OT mean?

I used to be that way. I only skied. But then, after years off, my brother and cousin talked me into going with them, and to try boarding out. I've not been back to skis since.

There is a learning curve, but if you can stay on your feet for a whole run and not fall down, you've pretty much got it.

My sympathy for the loss of your grandmother, Pat, and for your grandfather, Bill... regardless of how long they are with us, it's always hard to lose someone so close. Went through it myself this year.



As for FB... I thought about it, but decided against it. Just could'nt face those tough questions they demanded answers for.


Like "What's your name?"

I had the same reaction....something about it was funny. Though I thought it was my twisted little mind that made it seem that funny. We must be drinking the same kool-aid

Good looking truck you've got there Ed! Have you keep it all orginal? Or have you installed some upgrades? (Dura-spark and other "modern" comforts)

ALRIGHT, I'll hand it to ya, that's a nice ol Ford.
