Great looking dog mark!

Heya all, Ive been working way too much lately. Besides yesterday, my shortest day has been 13 hours haha. Add a 1/2ish hour drive to work, and back, that doesnt leave much time in my day anymore.

Good Morning everyone, Lisa, you know, this might be your last chance to flash, if you want to, you could send it to my cell phone, and I will share it with whomever you choose, I would do that for you. I am already here, so its not like I will be going out of my way.

You need to get on here earlier. Most of us are old farts and can't handle being awake that late.

As soon as I come back in from playing everyone is in bed! If I live on the west coast I would definitely be the last one up. Its 318 here and Im listening to the 80s on 8 on directv and jammin out! GIRLS GIRLS GIRLS...red lips, fingertips...
Hahaha...Tristan had some refreshments last night. You type really well when inebriated buddy.

We've missed you around here Sheldon. Is it a driving job?

He'll probably meet up with Mark and while they won't talk trucks, they'll get along great.

I'm working on a eulogy and know it will be the hardest thing I ever do. If you have time topray for my sisters & brothers, and my Mom that'd be awesome. I have y'all here, and that's a blessing itself.
Really sorry to hear man.

Well just got caught up, now I'm off to help a buddy pull a pump out of a well and replace it. Not sure how deep it is, so dont really know what I'm in for. The last one I helped him pull was over 600' deep, and had a 1 1/2 hp pump in it. It was light work for the PSD though. You folks have fun today and I'll catch yall later.

Mornin' folks!! I'm headed to Lowe's to replace that old Ryobi I had. I replaced the old brittle fuel lines, and now it's still leaking around the compression coupling where it attaches to the fuel tank (the line just pushes into the holes in the tank and are supposed to seal, but don't). And the membrane fuel pump is old & no longer functioning. I've had it with that thing.

I'm looking at a 2-cycle Troy-Built online (sorry Cris!! LMAO!!!!) that accepts all the attachments I already have (I hope!!). Then it's time to start cutting the yard for the Spring... Woo-hoo!! LMAO!!! I actually don't mind yard work. It's a bit therapeutic for me. Oh, I was supposed to look for that pic of my place -- I'm on my personal laptop right now. Let me see if I have it on here...

I don't. I'll get it from my desktop later.... As if it's all that important.

Wassup everyone.

Warm, humid and cloudy and a litle windy here in Houston. Been working out back repairing the last of my Hurricane Ike damage. Yeah, yeah, yeah....I know.

Getting ready to head into town for a new lawn tractor battery. The lawn tractor has the battery out of the jet ski in it right now and that just won't do in about 3 weeks or so....

Meeting Ivan tonight at the airport to look his truck over before he buys it. After that it's Masa's Sushi in The Woodlands. Going to get me the biggest platter of raw fish that they have and a couple of rolls. Good eating right there...

I wasnt quite to that point. Not many nights you can drink a few with old friends so we made the best of it! College helped me type in variety of circumstances!
