Hmmm Gary....are you insinuating that he's trying to block me out? :o

I'm going to tell myself to shut up and go to bed....

shelby, on this thread anything goes. No comment is too rude, too stupid, too ignorant and replies are not required, in fact many replies have no bearing on the previous comment.
I do most of my posting with a , hairy, black animal on my lap. and I type with one hand due to a broken shoulder which did not heal properly.

Fine, we will stick with my lame title. Even though it suggests that I am a whiner.... ok, so I am....
Hi Clyde! Missed you too!

Oh! Oh! Oh! Can I say it???? Shut up Gary.

;) just kidding...

I didn't know Gary sat on your lap while you typed with one hand cause the other was busy stroking him!!!:o I'M TELLING ANGIE!!!



How was that for rude, stupid and ignorant?;) Please, no replies required.:encore:

I'm gonna SHUT DOWN now and go to bed. Nigh, nigh.:faint:

I think you covered it pretty well.
However Gary is about 450 miles from me, tooo bad!

I've seen this called "highjacking" on other forums.

nothing wrong with being stroked

I'm starting to think Gary should have a thread all his own :D -- Gary's girls, Gary's Herum (I know, I spelled it wrong :dizzy:) -- Gary's giblets of perpetual information maybe???

And, what would you label us old people who read the "20's thread"? I think there should be a cute title for us!!! Maybe the "wannabe 20 agains"???

AKA as the "Thread that died before it got started out of boredom" ;)

50...
 

Are we there yet?

450 to go.

BILL....the human calculator strikes again

Hey BILL....did you ever notice how much we look alike in our avatars?

:rofl:

puh ... leeezze

Notice that I have more hair.

Notice that I have a serious expression - a concern for life - a love of mankind.

Notice that I wear a respectful jacket - meeting the standards of this thread.

And, not to touch on any sensitive subject around here, notice my lean, gaunt look - a man who eats on plan without divergence.

Bill, are you suggesting I need to wear my glasses for more than reading?

And notice the "OMG, I had four or five too many shots of tequila last night and I think I'm gonna hurl." twinkle in Bill's eyes.

Gosh, I thought that looked familiar. Kind of a "20-something wanna be" look.

And just what is wrong with my "I'm a big rubber ducky yellow rain gear"?:?:

How many gears in a two ton truck?
 

Oh dear, I'll have to ask that question of Martha when we next do tea.

But, meanwhile, a question for you. How many gears do you grind through to get that truck moving when it's fully loaded?

Curious minds want to know.

I was just thinking of a good game for you guys -- everyone has to go to the oldest thread they posted on and try to revive it in any manner possible -- the person with the oldest thread revived/most subsequent postings-- wins!! :D

Just kidding :dizzy: -- I love checking in on this thread -- it has been noncontroversial, light/fluffy :p and just casual -- sometimes you need a good conversation!!!

Now that's one scary thought.

Some sleeping dogs can be nasty when they wake up, LOL.

Well, trucks anymore have auto transmissions, so you don't have to actually work your gears. You can just choose which gear to lock in to prevent the trans from going to high when going downhill or keep from skipping up into 2nd gear when going uphill then dropping back into first and spilling your load all over the road.

But, when I was a oiler/fueler I drove a standard trans/diesel lube truck. I didn't have a trainer, but I had driven standard trans cars all my life. Turns out you shift a whole lot more in a diesel than a gasoline powered rig b/c the power bands are shorter. Took a couple of weeks for me to figure it out. From what I hear, most of those trucks are going to auto trans too. Now, even an idiot can get by in them. But they still tend to tear stuff up b/c of lack of quality training in the general operation of equipment.

OK. Now that we've bored the living **** out of everyone with this yap...

Back to the insanity!!!

:crazy::crazy::crazy:

Automatic transmission
 

hmmm... automatic transmission on a 200 ton truck. I suppose ...

Anyway, thanks for the answer. Maybe I could learn to drive one of those for my next job. Anything to get to wear that yellow rubber duckie outfit, LOL.

Isn't this a tad early for WY time? Or a tad late for a working person?

I'm on my two week grave rotation, so I slept during the day yesterday. I try to maintain my grave cycle on my days off between the two, but this week I have to get a few things ready for Tday and take care of some errands and such where I must deal with "Normies". Therefore, I will probably wind up batsh*t nuts by the end of my next grave shift.

Yes, as I stated in my earlier post, even and Idiot can drive them. :p

But it takes a certain level quality and intelligence to become a true Operator. Don't worry though, we don't have many operators where I work.:mad:

I think we would all like to have a yellow rubber ducky outfit. Operator, you're a trend setter!

http://i302.photobucket.com/albums/n...ellowDucky.jpg

Me purty, yes?

I was in the second row field level to see my dil wave her pom-poms against those Colts last night

Aha, da Operator isn't looking so I can get in the last post of the day.

Rain is projected around here. I fondly remember going to school in the rain wearing a hooded raincoat and rubber boots. Don't remember if they were yellow, but must have been - I don't think the other colors had been invented yet, LOL.

Ouch for being Vinatierized
 

Gary - Ouch for your heart pounding game against the Colts, and Double Ouch that it was Adam Vinatieri who kicked an unbelievable field goal with little time left.

Know that name well. We loved him as a New England Patriot and mourn the day we lost him. (Unlike some players we loved but didn't mourn so much, referring manninshly of course.)

You have "second row field level" seats to the San Diego Chargers' games!!! That's some good seating.

And you have a DIL who's a professional cheerleader for the Chargers? Are you just dreaming all this?

There's a dress code here?

Bill, who are we to question what happens in Gary's world? I've heard that it is a "special" place.

You bet!!!

With flying monkies and talking scarecrows and good witches and bad witches.

And, of course, behind the curtain, the wizzard himself ...

I think you guys have had a little bit too much eggnog. Aren't you rushing the season a little bit?

Oh, it's the eggnog. I just thought Bill had too much tequila last night.

Jose Cuervo you are a friend of mine
I like to drink you with a little salt and lime

:hat:

We seem to have a tequila theme lately.

Don't ask her on a straight tequila night!

Tequila? Shooters or Margaritas?

Margaritas - brought to me poolside by some hunk in a thong!

It's snowing here and I'm feeling forlorn.

Reminds me of the houseboy in The Birdcage--DD and her boyfriend watched that movie last weekend. So funny!

And it's a forecast of rain here.

But DH brought home my new treadmill today!!! (I'll have my margarita after my run)
