Take a moment to pause in the hustle and bustle and ponder just what you’re thankful for.
I’m thankful for my wife, my lover, [...]

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 [...]

Mmmmm….Barbeque!

Saturday, September 27th, 2008

(snnnniiiifffFFFFF). Yep, I can smell it.
I’m headed into east Texas to meet some friends for barbeque.
The bad news is I’ve got to work tonight.
The good news is that means lots of high-speed running on The Dragon.
Oh yeah…it’s going to be a good day!
I hope yours is the same!
CUAgain,

Where Angels Fear to Tread

Sunday, September 21st, 2008

Something over 300 years ago an English poet named Alexander Pope said, “Fools rush in where angels fear to tread.”
I’ve always liked the quote…simply because to me, it means “No limits.”
Angels have no fear, you see.
I’ve always tried to live my life without fear. Mostly, I’ve succeeded. I’d like to think so anyway.
No fear. [...]

Team Faceplant, Bicycle goes “Crunch” Division

Last weekend, my friend and co-worker Robert, whilst taking a leisurely jaunt about the hood, t-boned an attacking dog with his bicycle. The short of it is, He fought the dog, and the dog won.
Robert went down hard and broke his hip. He’s since had surgery, yah know…screws and plates and a forever hassle [...]

Apparently, I am evil. EVIL! (grin)

Thursday, August 7th, 2008

Several weeks ago, a coworker and friend decided to have laser beams shot into her eyes and all sorts of unpleasantness so that she could see better.
She had both eyes done and was out for several days. Naturally, I was concerned about her and hoped that it would all work out okay.
And then I turned [...]

And then there was the day…

Saturday, July 12th, 2008

So…waaay back when I was a kid…say about 18 or so…I was naive and believed that hard work and dedication (to a company) would get me ahead and make me a success. Heh…that is subject for another post…
I had a roommate at the time (he’s still my best friend)…and he believed too…
We’d been roommates a [...]
