    Good morning good people. Not much planned today, got the running around town junk over with (found a great sale on Grizzly!). Think I'll chill in the yard today, check cameras tomorrow. Today is the coolest day of the week (90) so I'm gonna try to enjoy it. Hope your day is fantastic!

    My uncle (my moms brother, he's younger than her, 10 years older than me) lived with us from the time he was 8 years old after his parents passed (my grandparents) he never made anything, I never could figure out why he slept until 12-1-2 o clock on Saturdays. Finally figured it out when I got older, he was hungover all the time.

    Today is 'Random Outside Photo Day'. We need to see pics of the great outdoors! Or your yard. A mall parking lot. A telephone pole. Anything. Really. It doesn't matter.

    Did y'all cheat?

    Years ago when my uncles boys were in scouts he had me mill the axle on one of their derby cars on a small angle. His thought, only 3 wheels touching it'll go faster.

    It didn't work.
