Danno Posted February 24, 2015 Posted February 24, 2015 There have been sirens all around all morning as the first-responders rescue the inevitable physics-doesn't-apply-to-me yups from their overturned 4WD Lexi. Roger that. You can't fix stupid.
chunkypeanutbutter Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 My sister got the guys from Beer and Board Games to insult me! It was pretty funny
High octane Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 What pleased me today was picking up a friend and heading out to our monthly model car club meeting. A great time as our club projects (gassers) were due today and filled the display table, we had great food & snacks, and the camaraderie is always good also. One of the guys even brought a "test shot" of the upcoming '65 Satellite kit for us to check out. Nice, real nice!
Tom Geiger Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 I went to The Big Sit today, an annual gathering of area modelers sponsored by the Philadelphia modeling club. The event is nothing more than a bunch of guys hanging out and displaying models. No structure, no prizes, nothing to buy. It was fun to see what everyone had built over the winter and to have some lunch with friends afterwards!
High octane Posted March 2, 2015 Posted March 2, 2015 That I woke up feelin' pretty good today, and not crabby like I was yesterday.
vintagedragcrazy Posted March 2, 2015 Posted March 2, 2015 Not today but yesterday I woke up to about 3 inches of snow (I hate that) but we still tracked of to the three rivers show about 90 miles and we had a great time visiting everyone and buying model stuff then off to long john silvers for dinner good day.

Roadrunner Posted March 2, 2015 Posted March 2, 2015 I pulled out in front of a cop, and stomped on it (I didn't see him),... he rode my bumper for about a quarter mile, then turned off; that pleased me.
High octane Posted March 2, 2015 Posted March 2, 2015 Rode your bumper for a quarter mile? What was your ET? LOL!

BirdWatcher Posted March 2, 2015 Posted March 2, 2015 Worked all weekend cleaning up the yard. Just had a 60 Foot Ficus tree trimmed and it was a complete mess. The yard looks great and my dog can't find any more stumps or branches to chew on, but he managed to find and eat a grasshopper today.
High octane Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 The new movie Furious 7 is due to be in theaters on April 3rd.
Fabrux Posted March 4, 2015 Posted March 4, 2015 I was offered a new job today! Which was great, as I've been unemployed since the end of November. I enjoy the daddy-daughter time with my toddler, but a job pays the bills!
High octane Posted March 4, 2015 Posted March 4, 2015 That's good news and good luck with your new job.
Tom Geiger Posted March 4, 2015 Posted March 4, 2015 Good luck on the new job. I know what unemployment feels like all too well!
crazyjim Posted March 4, 2015 Posted March 4, 2015 I'm pleased that I got home from the hospital today. I went to the local ER last week for pain after refinishing the shop floor. They gave me some strong pain killers & antiinflammatory meds that messed up my stomach. A few days later I discover I'm bleeding internally and had Marcia take me up to the VA ER. They did an upper GI and found the bleeding had stopped but wanted to get my blood pressure back up to my normal 120. That took a couple extra days.
Roadrunner Posted March 4, 2015 Posted March 4, 2015 Good luck on the new job. I know what unemployment feels like all too well! Me too, been out of work for quite a while now. For all practical purposes, I'm retired, I guess.
Roadrunner Posted March 4, 2015 Posted March 4, 2015 I just fried the last five eggs in the refrigerator before my roommate (with the appetite of a great white shark), got to them, and that pleases me.

crazyjim Posted March 4, 2015 Posted March 4, 2015 Doing real good, Ray. In fact, I'm going out to the shop for a little bit to help my styrene addiction.
Fabrux Posted March 4, 2015 Posted March 4, 2015 Thanks for the kind words, all! I've bounced around from three companies since graduating university almost five years ago. In that 57 month period, I've barely worked 44 of them. This new job is sorta outside what I've been doing before now, so I'm excited to take my professional career in a new direction!
slusher Posted March 8, 2015 Posted March 8, 2015 My mother turned 81 and is very healthy other the her blood pressure...
Roadrunner Posted March 10, 2015 Posted March 10, 2015 I had enough "extra" cash this week, to order the AMT White Freightliner COE kit.
Mike_G Posted March 10, 2015 Posted March 10, 2015 I saved $500 on our taxes and in the process realized I've been inadvertantly screwing ourselves by filing the wrong form.
