What do you all got in that coffee?

It is 9/21, not 8/21!

Pass some of that stuff this way.

Afternooner all,

NW Houston, sunny and plesant.

Prudent student has nose to the grindstone, and a drum of midnight oil at the ready. A lot of catchup to do in the school house department.

Kidlets don't have school tomorrow, don't know if I will be working or not. If my favorite dispatcher is bored and wants to stay that way she has my number.
Did get a braodcast phone message that went out to parents, teachers and staff that no kidletts monday, but the workes shoud show up.

Cleand the B1RD signatures off the PT, and washed the truck.

Steak and bake dinner tonight. Have to fire up the grill soon.

OFC, good ransom. enjoy it.

HAT you been working too hard, this buds for you, enjoy.

Have a good un and be safe out there.

Good evening. Up early this morning, mom and dad went down state for a weddning this weekend. So this morning I got up early went and picked up dads truck. I did a full detail to it this morning. Washed, clay bared, wax, and the interior cleaned. Last time it was warched was in May when I borrowed it one night. Turned out looking good, paint has a nice shine to it for being almost 12 yrs old. Still didn't get to installing the break controller in it today, maybe later this week. I'll prolly get a call tomorrow morning from him once he notices its clean. GF got back around 1300 today, did a wash and wax to her car this afternoon. She was happy with it. I was gonna cook for her but the stove went on the fritz the other day so we went out tonight. Finished up some air brake stuff for work tonight and now I'm enjoying a couple brews. Gotta busy weekend next week. Gonna see Robin Williams live in Chicago friday night, saturday the GF and I are meet some friends in Chi-town for a birthday party. We're going to Gino's East Pizza for dinner and then to a White Sox game. Sunday I'm going truckin with a friend, he has a load of corn or something to haul so I'm gonna ride with for a couple hrs. Gonna relax a bit before I have to go to bed.

Mad, is that Arson II kit on the truck now?

Yeah. I did not get a chance to get a reading on it, but it has enough fuel to overwhelm my turbo...

Wink dang Madhatter, what more can go on the poor truck (back and forth to work)

heheh kidding. saw Chaikwa on the New York State Thruway as we zeroed in on each other via cell phone, he went East; we went west and south back home. loaded all steel panels (17 pounds a piece x 300) by hand as some idiot me- looked at the message board "take tractor key" and walked right past the key on a 570 mile roundtripper. lot of work, Cracker barrel hit the spot and always fun to hear what Chaikwa is up too!

mad hat- rest is good! handle the moving thing- second stressful thing behind 'divorce' and you DO NOT want to go there! maybe more privacy will be a good thing! heh, your neighbor will be a nascar mechanic or somethin'....
who knows?! semper fi, bulldog. it will all come together before the holidays!

wow, redleg AND chaikwa AND Ijobb gone....guess I'll just have to watch Heroes tomorrow night with the hubby...

heidi had a berry beer and was very confused...

Evenin' all,

Just tapped the drum of midnight oil for the prudent student.
IKE put her way behind. One speech she is working on is "perswasion" (sp)
Gonna be on evacuate or stay for a hurricane. Some of it will be first hand stuff.

Had steak and bake tonight, with sweet tea, good food.

JWBM that for the list of the missing. Not sure if I will be up in time to kick the dragon to heat the coffee.

Job jar is up to the top again. Didn't get much out of it last week,

Have a good un and be safe out there.

Evenin' All!

Chilli cook-off tonight at work to coincide with thew corn bread bake-off. YUMMY! I'll win the chilli side of things by default cause no one else would man-(or woman)up against me. I have a reputation here for good chilli. Not too hot and a little sweet. Waitin' o the corn bread to show.

Keep the on.

First day of fall, huh ? Hmmppphhh ... still gonna be in the 90's. Waiting for it to start cooling down so's I can start running again. At least that is the excuse for today ... tomorrow it may be "too cold" or "too humid" or something ....

Nothing substantial to report this morning .... guess I need to take my coffee cup somewhere else to stir the pot a little.

Y'all keep em straight out there .... aaaaaaaiiiiiiigggghhhhttt !!

Cheers,
PISTOL
