Happy Halloween!

Friday, October 31st, 2008

It’s that time of year again! Happy Halloween!
I’m working tonight…so no new jack-o-lanterns etc…I’ll have to recycle an old one:

Y’all have fun! Pig out on chocolate! Feel up a French Maid! Grab a sexy cat-girl on the tail! All that sort of good stuff!
CUAgain,

Never a second thought…

Thursday, October 30th, 2008

She was watching me with that quirky smile…that one that means she’s either up to something, or she thinks that I am.
I stopped what I was doing. “What?”
She smiled and walked over to give me a hug. “I was just wondering what it must be like to have a normal husband.”
That took me back a [...]

Lessons

Tuesday, October 28th, 2008

So, I helped friends get their electric heat system wired up to full power yesterday.
They had a new ac/heat system put in last year and there wasn’t enough power (cable size/breaker) for the electric heat. The installer just flipped off the switch for half the heating elements so there was enough power to run the [...]

Wonky schedule (wonky being a technical term)

Sunday, October 26th, 2008

Well, it’s time. The end of the year approach(ith)…and that means interesting things in the newspaper industry.
Let’s see, it means we’re busy. Lots of advertisers and sales and news to accompany it.
It means we’re frantically trying to get too many projects done. Some started due to the budgetary cycle (management suddenly deciding to spend money), [...]

Drove the truck in today…

Thursday, October 23rd, 2008

I drove Big Iron, the 450 horsepower Dodge pick’em-up truck to work today.
Was it that I got rained on yesterday?
Nope.
Cold this morning?
Well, it was cold, but that wasn’t it either.
Apparently I’m getting old or something. Gad.
A couple days ago, on my way home, a step ladder fell out of the back of a [...]

Anybody need some certified hepas?

Wednesday, October 15th, 2008

So, more air-conditioner work.
Ya’ll might recall late last year we had a bunch of air-condtioner work done. “A bunch” as in, “They ripped the entire mess out and installed everything from new.” I was happy, as the old system had basically announced that it needed to be torn out when it tried to burn [...]

Economics…

Monday, October 13th, 2008

So, money’s tight…at least, that’s what the media and the prospective presidential candidates are striving to convince us of.
Many folks, including us, are tightening our belts a bit and doing our best to cut down. The news is downright scary. The stock market is down a bunch. Folks…GOOD folks, are getting laid off. 401 K’s [...]

Y’all might remember that I’m dabbling in the visual arts…
Part of that effort has been to take a life drawing class. The studio I’m attending is The Bonny Studio, and they are having an art show Saturday, October 25th, 5 to 9 PM in Richardson, Texas.
I’ve a pencil sketch piece from the life drawing class [...]
