Mr. Stanely, a boy HAS to be easier....less hormonal issues ;-)

She is in college now so I can't ground her BUT,
she doesn't get the car back until she is paid in full.

I bought the tires she blew out less than a year ago because she needed new ones.
I don't mind replacing things that wear out.

Things that need replaced or repaired because of stupidity I'm not buying.
Every day is a good day.......some are just better than others!

Proud to say that my property is protected by a high speed wireless device!

I taught people how to MAKE THEIR PICTURES SMALLER.... lol


insert this into your image tag so it looks like this:

img width="900" src="(picture url)"

it will scale your pictures down so they're not wider than the screen :)
We can do it my way, or we can do it my way while I yell. The choice is yours.

Thanks AHL. I forgot to resize the images in Photoshop, so i was being lazy and just posted them anyway. It never looks good if the browser resizes the image, but it is quicker than rendering your images.

this is kinda job related. I bailed on a job to go play soccer and this is what happened!! a ruptured achillies tendon. you should have heard this thing when it popped. It sounded like a baseball being hit by a bat...

The black really sets off the TV nicely.

Man, that is one Frankenfoot there! Those staples are something else. Hope you have good insurance & are back to work soon!

Thanks (I think) for sharing!

We had 27 family members over Thanksgiving and housed 17 of them through the weekend. It was hectic, but a lot of fun.

I finally took a picture of the install I did in my house

Holy cow. That is really a rough deal! I popped a tendon or ligament in my knee last year... & it took a while to heal. It's fine now though.

You know what would be kinda cool? A really low-level backlight.
But as it is now, that is cool. This is the type of stuff I like to do too --- come up with cool looking little install details.

Custom made Plasma brackets where the cables come up through the floor. Originally they were supposed to be wall mounted but the homeowner decided it would look better if they were in the room not on the wall. even though it was a pain to move, I had to admit it does look cool.

I saved 10$$$ by doing my own oil change, but in the process, I busted off a little plastic nipple on my radiator! Can't be glued or welded back on.

Guess what? It can't be "repaired" have to get a hole new f*cking radiator & get it installed --- $650.00.

There is no truth anymore. Only assertions. The internet world has no interest in truth, only vindication for preconceived assumptions.
