What's under your lip/in your nose right now?

Morning all. Axl, there's no excuse for getting paint on the paint ladder, particularly when you're not painting. Are you sure he wasn't just joking? As far as your tracking request, that was absurd. I think some of management training involves mastering the word no. You didn't by any chance have your dog with you at the time?

Well, I pulled the trigger on my Snus Central order so I'll be well supplied with mint for a long time. Since all I really needed to sure up was the mint and a little more Onyx. I took a couple grab bags and some Thunder ES los along with a portion grab bag and los grab bag. A new experiment for me. I got a 3ml icetool and will now have to study up on Stubby's instruction thread. Here's the kicker.

My total order was $18 less than my order would have been with Northern for the snus alone sans icetool and (I almost forgot) the stainless icetool snus box. When I priced just the snus, Northern was $1.29 per can more expensive than SC- $2.89 per can vs $4.18. Now as long as the FDA doesn't get involved again.

Wish we lived closer, Axl. I have access to 25 acres of hunting land. Hilly, ravines, wet and dry, scrub, and old forest. Titus would love it, and the owner would love to see a woman working a big dog. I looked at the blue. The juniper sounds like an interesting flavor.

Big plans for today. We'll see how much I actually get done.

My thoughts exactly!

That sounds about normal Roth. Like that one politician said " the rents too Damn high" at northerner.

FC it sounds like you're feeling better. That's great.

Axl I have about half of an eighth of an acre. No tracking room here but the trail at the neighborhood park might work.

I'm taking the youngest to her violin lesson and then its off to the strings store to try cellos for the oldest. Have a great day folks.

Ya, fc, that sounds like great ground!

No, the boss wasn't joking. It is an odd workplace and normally I maintain a sense of humor about things but Friday my happy thoughts left me.

I decided "f&%^ it!". I'm just going to start trespassing. The airport (a very very small one) just on the edge of town is surrounded by grassy acres. I'm sure it is airport property but it is not fenced in and not close to the main building so it is unlikely anyone will even notice me. I'm going to start using that. I used an abandoned school 'area' today that is in town. No one stopped me so that must mean that it is ok. Probably trespassing is the easiest way to find out who owns stuff anyway.

Going out to eat tonight at the casino buffet. Yippee.

The buffet really sucked.

We went to Jose Pepper's and then took my wife shoe shopping for her b-day. She didn't pick anything and the kids each got something. She's hard to shop with. She wanted some clarks sandals but they didn't have any and she didn't like any of the others. So much for that idea of an easy gift. I guess I better come up with another gift idea.

Good morning. We are going over to the MiL's house to do the b-day thing for my wife today. I feel like I've been run over by a truck or two. Between working out yesterday morning and a bunch of driving I'm pretty sore.

Boy am I lazy today. Laying on the sofa posting and watching the Phillies/A's, the city series if the A's never moved. They left when I was seven so I really don't remember them, but I was a fan back when they were beating up on the Yankees. I loved the Yankees back in the Mantle/Maris years, then I got old enough to understand the finances of things. Always a Phillies' fan but there were years (decades) that I needed an American League team to keep my interest up as they worked their way to the record of most losses in sport's history.

I think I burned myself out on six and a half hours of poker yesterday, finishing second and first in the two tournaments. I can't imagine what these guys that play seven day tournaments, 10+ hour days like the World Series of Poker feel like by the end, especially for the final table players that don't win. Of course most of them make a million for getting that far.

Of course it's different now for the final table guys. They play to make the final table in July and wait until November to finish. That must be an interesting 3 months of preparation.

THat is a LONG time to be playing cards!! My eyes would fall right out of my head, I think!

Nothing exciting today. We went to dog training. It is nice to be just having fun and not training for a trial! I am trying to get my son prepared for his first trial, which will be in September. Still not sure which of the three dogs he will use. Maybe my boy, Titus.

Good evening. I just got back from picking up my daughter from play practice. I don't plan on doing anything tonight except maybe read a little before bed. You know, life on the edge.

I keep forgetting to ask, has anyone been having issues after posting with "This webpage is not available", then having to refresh to get back to the thread? I have and it's starting to get long.

 

[hittman]

Good morning. Roth I haven't had any issues like that although it's not uncommon for there to be problems with this page loading. My daughter is taking what I will call the "second choice" cello in to her teacher today to play and evaluate. My wife and I were discussing it a little this morning before I left. Of course it would be nice financially if she picked this one since it's half the price of the "first choice" but I really don't think it's the right instrument for her. To me she seems to be able to play the first with much more ease and the sound quality is very clear but not as loud as the second. I told her what I think and told her it has to be her decision. My wife of course has her fingers crossed for the second. I don't know for sure which she will pick but sure am ready for this whole thing to end.

FC that doesn't seem like a very long recovery time. Are you sure you should go back already or do you have a choice?

 

[rothenbj]

FC, I think you should take the rest of the month off. You don't want to rush things. IMHO and thinking how nice that would be for you.

 

[firechick]

I appreciate the thoughts, but Doc cleared me. I have to go.

UGH... I went running for the first time since the 15th. Actually my times were quite good. Did three miles in less than 27 min. I think all the interval training I did with the kids two weeks ago actually helped in some way. We'll see if I can keep it up now. I just have so many other things to do since it is summer.

FC, no way in heck should you be going back to work already. OMG!!

Which cello, hitt??

Well Axl the teacher said that the more expensive one was worth twice the cheaper one and that my daughter played it more easily. Kind of what I said but my wife had to hear it from the teacher. He also said it would be a wise investment. So its pretty much decided. We have to go Saturday to pay for it.
