Welcome Back
A long time coming...I've been away on typepad and wordpress and here I am back at home on Blogger.

Loyalty runs deep...alliances run shallow

It never ceases to amaze me how people use other people to get what they want. I'm not referring to bitching at the cashier at the grocery store to get your gallon of milk for $2.15 instead of $2.35...I'm talking about people being manipulative in ways that could be hurtful and have long term lasting effects. In the past week I have witnessed people stringing each other along, with alterior motives to end things once they get what they want. It's sad that I have to sit by and watch this scharade...it's pathetic really.

The Fifth Degree

Oh, my goodness...we're traveling near Rawlins, WY and the
temperature indicator in the truck say it's five degrees outside.
That is the coldest that I have ever been in. I was sitting in the
jump seat talking to Jake and I could just feel the frigidness eating
away at my arm through the window.

Bad Treo

It's amazing how a brand new device that fails, again and again, can really kill your enthusiasm for for a company and a hobby. I have used both Palm and Pocket PC devices for the past 6 years and after all that time I know what to expect from the different companies and their products. This time, the Treo 700p has changed all that...specification and feature-wise, it's a wonderful idea, but the final product itself is horrible. I've already had to return one because the earpiece went out, then the speaker, then the microphone, then the headset jack. Its replacement refuses to work whenever you load any piece of software on it. A $700 piece of junk...I am hoping that Sprint will either replace it with a working model this time, or allow me to downgrade to a different phone, because after all I've gone through, I don't even want to deal with a Treo, much less a Palm...I don't even visit the websites I used to anymore because the thrill is gone, so is the dependability. I will say this, my Palm TX is still reliable and faithful, but the Treo is out!!!

Brrr...

It was still hot and humid in Virginia, but when I woke up and we were in New Jersey and it was raining...it was pretty cold. I would move up here just to be around all the architecture, but I don't if I could handle the winters, and I know for sure that my wife couldn't.

For My House

I think I would like something like this for my house. Kind of in the back away from everything else. The only thing I would change about it would be enlarging the steps so they can actually be sat on and having it built out of sealed concrete.

Another Blowout

Life sucks...I'm tired of blown out tires
and breakdowns. It's hard enough to make money without all of these equipment failures.

Lonely Friend

There are things that I find funny about my friends; Stephen...always has an idea. Jake...doesn't like to be alone. It doesn't matter how much sleep I've had, he's always willing to wake me up to come join him in whatever adventure or stopoff he's involved in.

Big Motor

After picking up our truck...Jake finally found a motor bigger than his mouth!
