Thats good. I was a 34 in high school too. I held at a 36 for 15 yrs. I was at 252 pounds then too.

When I took my fall protection...They had to get some gear brought in to fit me.
62" chest throws them off a bit. I think the standard drop for a suit is 7". I have maintained 20" over the yrs. Not an off the rack kinda guy.

I've never been that heavy. 210 was about it and I'm now holding steady-ish at 200 even. 185 in high school tho.

Goal weight would be 170 lbs.. Got up to 195 with the winter chub. Currently a 32 waist with a 44 chest

Don't say anything to him tho, let's make it a surprise for him. Old people like him don't have a lot going on, so I bet he'll just LOVE it!

What is it going on - - - it just has to be the name Scott that causes this malfunction of the thought processes. This is two of you "Scotts" that are all messed up. Now in the first place, I am just a young squirt, so you really blew that one if you are trying to get on my good side. Now, if you are serious, there is plenty of room out there in the pasture with the cattle - - bring that RV on down, park it by the pond, bath in the pond with the alligator, jog with the coyote. You will love it. Drive one mile and you can swim in the river with the big boys - - our gators top at 6' - - one mile away they are 14'. (Gee, hope we don't see one that big in our pond - - that would be gator tail for about 10 years.) On second thought, we could make the barn a bunk house with bunk beds - - it has a potty and shower, washer and dryer and small kitchen. Wow, the King hostel. Hmmm, money has been tight, people are struggling with paying for the hotels - - is this the time for such a venture? HMMM?????

OK, going to keep the blonde company before this stuff rubs off on me. Be good - - have a good sleep - - this computer thingy is going to bed. Nighty night.

Bob, the Hosteler (hmmmm, is that a word??? Maybe I could call it a Kabootz)

So basically what you're saying is we're ok as internet friends, but we're not anyone you'd want in your house! I see how you are! HEY, SCOTTY! Ya hear the same message here that I do? I think we need to plan a real 'special' visit!







Morning all.

Today is Wednesday, April 27th.

On this day in 1805 - A force led by U.S. Marines captured the city of Derna, on the shores of Tripoli.

1813 - Americans under Gen. Pike capture York (present day Toronto) the seat of government in Ontario.

1861 - West Virginia seceded from Virginia after Virginia seceded from the Union during the American Civil War.

1863 - The Army of the Potomac began marching on Chancellorsville.

1865 - In the U.S. the Sultana exploded while carrying 2,300 Union POWs. Between 1,400 - 2,000 were killed.

1937 - German bombers devastated Guernica, Spain.

1953 - The U.S. offered $50,000 and political asylum to any Communist pilot that delivered a MIG jet.

1975 - Saigon was encircled by North Vietnamese troops.

1982 - The trial of John W. Hinckley Jr. began in Washington. Hinckley was later acquitted by reason of insanity for the shooting of U.S. President Reagan and three others.

1989 - Student protestors took over Tiananmen Square in Beijing.

1987 - The U.S. Justice Department barred Austrian President Kurt Waldheim from entering the U.S. He claimed that he had aided in the deportation and execution of thousands of Jews and others as a German Army officer during World War II.

2005 - The A380, the world's largest jetliner, completed its maiden flight. The passenger capability was 840.

2006 - In New York, NY, construction began on the 1,776-foot Freedom Tower on the site of former World Trade Center.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:
If you can't drink and drive, why do you need a driver's license to buy liquor, and why do bars have parking lots?

Coffee & ph00 are ready.
