    Nice read Jim I am still laughing.


    We managed to slip into and out of Michigan between storms this Christmas. Traveling was very easy both days but still rather tiring. I need to take a pic of our car and post it. The front is literally caked with salt. Will probably run it through a car wash when I fill it up with gas today.


    We averaged 27.3 MPG on a 1500 mile trip this year. Not bad for a 10YO American sedan IMHO. Beats getting 30MPG in a cramped small car.

    Good morning everyone.
    Happy New Year.
    Thank you for great conversation and insight.
    2* this morning
    8 to 12 forecasted for us starting tonight.
    Should be all light snow so no concrete to move.
    Will be an interesting work day.
    Think I'm going to put the plow truck in the garage before it starts and let the tacoma sit outside. Makes it easier for the first few passes to the road.
    Enjoy your day and stay well....

    Agreed on the 2 or 3 center of mass.

    Likewise to Mrs "6" and you.

    Keep that shovel at hand to clear the path to the hot tub. ;)

    I'll throw in a :woot: for 3 days and counting. :D

    :thumbsup:

    Thanks Mike, same to you and yours!

    Morning all:

    Ken, 3 days left! :taco::kona::dancingbacon::yay:
    As for Jims post on :angrygirl:--------:rofl:!
    And Doc, I think you are being way too kind when you say- there "MAY" be an underlying problem there!

    As for being on Medicare; at least we made it this far, better than the alternative! :eek:

    Wishing all a HAPPY 2014

    hope this comes up..
    The wife's back on the warpath again. Last night she said she wanted to make a sex movie, and all I did was suggest we should hold auditions for her part.





    My sister-in-law sat on my glasses and broke them. It was my own fault. I should have taken them off.





    I spent a couple of hours defrosting the fridge last night, or "foreplay" as she likes to call it.





    After both suffering from depression for awhile, the wife and I were going to commit suicide yesterday.But strangely enough, once she killed herself, I started to feel a lot better. So I thought, screw it, I'll soldier on!





    I woke up this morning at 8 and just felt that something was wrong. I got downstairs and found the wife face down on the kitchen floor, not breathing! I panicked. I didn't know what to do. Then I remembered ...McDonald's serves breakfast until 11:30 .





    The other night, my wife asked me how many women I'd slept with. I told her, "Only you. All the others kept me awake all night!"





    My wife packed my bags and said "GET OUT!!!". As I walked out the front door, she screamed,"I wish you a slow and painful death, you bastard!" "Oh," I replied, "so now you want me to stay!"





    I've just installed strobe lights in the bedroom. It makes the wife look like she's moving during sex

    Thanks Charlie... grouping was good, because the target was only about 10 ft away... My intent is to stop anyone darkening my doorway uninvited. No need to shoot 30 or 40 ft. No "aiming" just shooting in the general direction.

    Sorry about your BIL. If I'd been in that situation, I might think differently.

    :p it was 10 ft ;)

    I saw it :(

    :facepalm:


    HAPPY NEW YEAR guys

    Great way to usher out the old and welcome in the new Mark. :thumbsup:

    Evening all:
    She found it! ;)

    Here's one for the Pa. guys, Mark, Paul, Tom. The one gas station owner said that starting today 10c a gal. extra gas tax will be put on. They were talking about 28c a gal., and probably will be incremental.
    Of course gas has been going up, but anyone notice, or been told of the extra 10c tax as of today?

    Hmmm! Good idea Jim. I'll have to try that! :)
    The "NO SOLICITING" sign at my driveway seems to be enough to keep them away. Couldn't believe how many times the JW's came calling, and woke me up when working night shift! :mad:

    HOLY CRAP!!

    Just picked myself up off the floor and still have laughing tears rolling down my cheeks. Great stuff !!

    Reminds me of a woman I dated once (note .... once).

    She was so ugly she once made a freight train take a dirt road and later made a funeral procession turn into a dark alley.
