Eat A Salad, Tubby! Ouch!

Ever lean back in your office chair and hear a big POP and the next thing you see is the ceiling? Well, I guess at a mere 205 I should call 1-800-Jenny and sign up. Luckily my head landed between my other desk and file cabinet! DANG-IT JIM! That freakin' hurt!

I apologize in advance, but I find myself doing nothing right now but laughing to the point of crying.

I fully expected you all to literally laugh you rears off. That is why everyone came to see what the heck happened....because I was laying on my back in the fetal position laughing to the point of crying also!

Duh...I like tater tots!!!

Somewhere in Eastern Kentucky:

Oh people aren't afraid of me.. I am just your friendly computer guy/geek/diesel head . Most of my family is pretty big/tall anyways, noone seems to believe me when I tell them how much I weigh but oh well.

That is for that guy I got stuck next to on an airplane in Denver recently while "de-icing" for two hours. That guy must have wrestled for a living!

Hoss isn't known for his manners, that is for sure. And don't expect an appology from him either.
