Lol...I either wait for jim, or use tongs.
That's pretty funny because I was using tongs to get most of the stuff earlier that I couldn't reach. Now all that's left are things like cups on the top shelf that I can't grab with them.

Nikki...any update on your Dad?
Haven't heard anything yet. When I talked to him before his surgery yesterday, he said they warned him that he might be a little loopy today from meds, so waiting on my mom to text.

Yep. I love my fights! I love the fighters! Most of em are some if the coolest people you'll ever meet.
When we first moved to the desert, we were in town one day, our truck broke down on an exit ramp. I would guess 1000 people passed us, never offered to help. Then this badas$ mustang pulls up and stops, asks if he can help push my Expediton off the highway. Ninja said, no way man, if you got hurt I'd feel bad cause we wouldn't be able to watch you fight next week. It was Cub Swanson. I'd like to tell him Thank You for being human :)

When we lived in the Bay Area 15 years ago, my wife trained at Cung Le's school. My friend and coworker, Jane, and her husband at the time was partners with him in his school. This was back when MMA was just starting out and Cung wasn't involved much with it. Nowadays, all of Jane's Facebook updates are all MMA related with promos and pictures from all the different competitions in the Bay Area and Vegas.

Yeah, I know the feeling... I get bummed sometimes, too, but now that I make my own juice, I don't care if I win any, so I quit even posting in the juice contest threads. Now I don't worry about it. :)



Many, many moons ago, when my ex and I lived in Central Oregon, we used to have JWs come by on a frequent basis. Usually, I just didn't answer the door, or I'd let the dog out (big black male Dobie that roared at "intruders" but was sweet as pie if you petted him - he scared them off, though!). But one day, I was out back washing the horses. By myself. When a horse is wet, the first thing they want to do is drop down and roll in the dirt, which makes MUDDY horses. I was attempting to wash both of them, tying the freshly washed one until they were dry while I washed the other one, but the tied one kept managing to get dirty again anyway.

I was about to just give it up as a bad idea, when these nicely dressed young men came around the back of the house (TRESPASSERS!) and asked if they could talk to me. (Light bulb went off over my head!) I said, "Sure, here, hold this horse and do NOT let her drop down and roll. Walk her in circles if you have to, while I get this other one cleaned up. You can talk while you walk." AND THEY DID! One of them took the mare and walked her and the other one (bless his heart) held the gelding's lead rope for me so I could use both hands to wash and rinse, then we all walked the wet horses. They started out preaching, but they were so fascinated by "horse washing" that they started asking me horse questions and it was like old friends visiting! LOL! I took their little newspapers when they left, not telling them they'd just be used as kindling in the wood stove, but what they didn't know didn't hurt them, AND I got two clean, dry horses out of the deal.

The moral of the story is when the Universe sends help, TAKE IT! :lol:
Here in the Northeast (especially here in NY), the JW are huge. They have two big halls, one just a couple of miles away from me, the other about 10 miles away. They also purchased a hotel which they fixed up and converted into apartments/dorms for JW missionaries.
