You beat me to work this morning. Sucks waking up that early, but the drive across the bay sure is easier.

I bought one $100 pair of sunglasses 30 years ago. They lasted me less than 24 hours. I wear sunglasses constantly if the sun is out ever since my doctor said my blue eyes sunburn really easy and if I didn't want to go blind before I was 60 I had to do so. I tried all of the cheap ones then one day I was given a pair of Smith & Wesson brand dark tinted safety glasses. They fit me perfectly, tough as hell, really dark and they truly are fog free and scratch resistant. Love them. They cost $7.00 a pair on line at Texas Safety Supply. I have destroyed a few from driving over them with equipment, chemical splashes and hard impacts but if I avoid those they last a long time before they're too beat up to use. I order 3 or 4 pair at a time, sometimes with a clear and amber lens model thrown in.

You're welcome for the entertainment.
The owner of a golf course in Georgia was confused about paying an invoice, so he decided to ask his secretary for some mathematical help. He called her into his office and said, "Y'all graduated from the University of Georgia and I need some help. If I wuz to give yew $20,000, minus 14%, how much would you take off?" The secretary thought a moment, and then replied, "Everthang but my earrings."
retirin' an' movin' North Mom and Dad were trying to console Susie, whose dog Skipper had recently died. "You know," Mom said, "it's not so bad. Skipper's probably up in Heaven right now, having a grand old time with God." Susie stopped crying and asked, "What would God want with a dead dog?" Jim's doctor tells him he has only one day to live. When Jim goes home to share the bad news with his wife, she asks what he wants to do with the little bit of time he has left. "All I want," Jim tells his beloved wife, "is to spend my last few hours reliving our honeymoon." Which is exactly what they did. But after hours of blissful romance, she announces that she's tired and wants to go to sleep. "Oh, come on," Jim whispers in her ear, "one more time." "Look," his wife snaps, "I've got to get up in the morning. You don't!" |

Lawyers should never ask a Georgia grandma a question if they aren't prepared for the answer.In a trial, a Southern small-town prosecuting attorney called ...his first witness, a grandmotherly, elderly woman to the stand.
He approached her and asked, 'Mrs. Jones, do you know me?'
She responded, 'Why, yes, I do know you, Mr. Williams. I've known you since you were a boy, and frankly, you've been a big disappointment to me. You lie, you cheat on your wife, and you manipulate people and talk about them behind their backs. You think you're a big shot when you haven't the brains to realise you'll never amount to anything more than a two-bit paper pusher.
Yes, I know you.
'The lawyer was stunned. Not knowing what else to do, he pointed across the room and asked, 'Mrs. Jones, do you know the defence attorney?'
She again replied, 'Why yes, I do. I've known Mr. Bradley since he was a youngster, too. He's lazy, bigoted, and he has a drinking problem. He can't build a normal relationship with anyone, and his law practice is one of the worst in the entire state. Not to mention he cheated on his wife with three different women. One of them was your wife. Yes, I know him.'
The defence attorney nearly died.
The judge asked both counsellors to approach the bench and, in a very quiet voice, said, 'If either of you idiots asks her if she knows me, I'll send you both to the electric chair.

I had hurt my back the other day when I was rotating my tires in my garage, there was a stubborn nut on one of the rear tires and I was using a tire iron. I was straining like a SOB to get it to crack and eventually lifted the car up enough that the tire spun (didn't pull the handbrake yet) and made me jerk forward really awkward, got the job done and didn't realize how bad I had hurt myself until i relaxed that night and went to get up and couldn't. Was really worried I had done some major damage, took it easy the last couple days and now feels alright. Still sore but I don't have to watch how I move or anything. A couple more nights if icy hot and I'll be good as new. Definitely a reminder to be careful. I know a few people with major back issues and they struggle through life. I would hate that to happen to myself

I know first hand that once the back goes life changes forever, damn sure wish I could redo one morning when I should of stayed in bed. I've beat what the doc told me years ago but I know that it won't be that long (years if I'm very lucky) before I have to have a ramp to get in the house. But I'm blessed to still be getting around even if I can't throw the wife over my shoulder and run jump off the bluff into the river like I did 20+ years ago. Had someone ask me why I had a jeep with my back and I told him my upper body strength is still pretty good and I know what slow is now, might not like it but slow beats not going..
amen

Good morning ladies and gentlemen, TGIF! I'm looking forward to spending the first weekend home in a month. Just spent the last 3 long weekends in the woods hunting and it sure is going to be nice not to hear an alarm go off tomorrow morning!

Ouch! Get a four point tire iron, you can stand on it to break stubborn nuts and save your back and arms. I don't like the folding irons.
I haven't seen any at southern Napa. But that doesn't mean anything. Good thing about them is you can give em a call and ask for Jim. Hell tell ya whatever you wanna know. They can get kegs now too! I just need to buy a kegerator.
If you're ever in Mobile, Cottage Hill Package Store has a great selection from what I hear.
