Nice drive today, even with the misty weather. Hate the rain, but I'm not going to let it hamper my plans for the weekend...



I'm no longer required to attend the meetings at work after showing my co-workers our camping trip photo's!

Its worth more than $60 because you'll be playing close to 2 years on this game online. For me its best $60 I ever spent for the year Plus I upgraded it to the Elite package for extra $50. MW3 will release 9 new maps throughout the year and they are included in the Elite package. Unless it'll cost $10 per map!

What? Too creepy again? You guy's don't water-board each other on camping trips? I thought everybody did it.

Funny the things you'll do on a camping trip, especially if there is alcohol involved.

When it's raining like today camping can really suck. I don't carer how well you are prepared you are (Tarps and all). My grandfather used to say that his idea of "roughing it" was staying at a Hilton with a broken ice machine. I kind of like it because if you willing to hike and are going early or late in the season you can get away from other people.
And my girls always want to get freaky in the woods!

Do they get freaky after a substantial amount of water-boarding? Or is it completely willing lol

No torture, they've all liked the outdoor setting. Why, I have no idea. One of then got Poison Oak on her ass. Its not a turn on for me. In fact, I don't like it. I just go along with it because I want to get laid.

^I know, good idea. Trying really hard to talk Carrie into new 50" TV with X-Box. It's not going so well. I want to move that 42" Panasonic plasma to the bedroom so I can watch porn in bed.

My wife thinks 50" is too big also.
I Just remembered that I had a dream that you bought another 4-door car (White). When I asked you what the hell you were thinking you told me it was too good a deal to pass on. I can't remember what kind of car it was, just remember being really surprised that you didn't buy an RDX!

I have a 42 in the bedroom, awesome and a 52 in the main also awesome and good for gaming when I have the time.

Silver? Lame, silver shows no dirt yes but also shows nothing else, no depth, no reflections, no nothing.

Yep, I keep telling her...

Really awful drive today (and I came in at 12noon).

On a good note, the drain system I installed in the back yard is working great. No more swamp on the back foot of lawn!
It was a hard days work, and I realized how out of shape I was. It was worth it. Pretty simple too. We dug down with a small excavator to about 12-18" below grade and put some "french-drain" pipe down, connected it to the gutter lines, then tossed small river rock on top (it took almost a full dump truck load of rock, 7tons??).

Note the standing water in the early part of this summer \/

I'm lucky that I live far enough away from the trees that I don't have that issue and the Maple in the front yard is too small to spew its leaves on the roof.

Really bummed about the weather. I was painting the sights on my guns last night and thinking it will probably be February before I go out and blast some buck-shot again. This heavy rain has me thinking of relocating all together (Anywhere south of Eureka). Jobs like mine (that pay like shit) are a dime a dozen in California.

BTW that debris in my gutter is a poor tar job that some handyman, hired by the single mother who owned the place before us, did. That woman spent next to nothing on the place for 14 years and walked away with $150,000 in profit. I've debated on whether we should continue with the remodel or just call it quits and let someone else put a new kitchen in.
It needs new windows, roof and baths too.

tile and windows are easy to do put in 2 windows last weekend in a matter of 2 hours.. tile is alittle harder due to process but still easy. i did our fireplace and our kitchen floor tiles, roof is a harder thing.. not fun either..

Get adjustable front cambers and adjust for some negative camber on all four corners. Relocate the battery to the trunk. That should help alot the battery you can do yourself.

Anyone notice that when you're not logged in that every image has some stupid ad overlay on it? Fecking azine trying to monetize on a forum. Soon enough even when we're logged in we'll have ads trickling across pages and those garish flash ads that cover up the navi unless you find a way to discover the tiny lil close button cleverly hidden. Lame.

I haven't seen ads ever on this forum in 8 years.

Get Firefox and the Adblock plug-in.

I saw a sweet TSX (2G) on my commute this morning. Couldn't get a good look at who was driving it 'cause was so dark and f-f-foggy I thought I was in a Scooby-doo cartoon.
