Good Morning CGs!
Welcome to Decemeber!!! Certainly doesn't feel like it here. It will be in the mid 50s today, and the mid 60s within about two more days. Amazing. We had some cold stuff in the last two weeks, but this is nothing to complain about. Back to work after a nice little staycation. I did get a few things done around the house, most notably the lights were installed. What is on tap for everyone today? Anything good for Saturday night? Hope everyone has a great day! Matthew |

More people means more crazy shit. The shift in culture also plays a major role of the lunacy that prevails today. Civilization is going backwards. Common decency is much less common. That's why I like it in my own little world. I can make the rules there. Reality is what you make it. |

Howdy! I woke up way too early today, gonna make up for that later. Yeah, some awful stories, indeed - what are people sprinkling on their cereal to make them so crazy these days? Meanwhile, I think I am hearing an unwanted guest of some sort in the ceiling above one of the bay windows. Further inspection, followed by an exorcism, if necessary, to follow.
Have a good day, everybody! |

Morning guys...That's some crazy stuff going on there Matt. No place is immune to crazy stuff going on.
We got home from the game about 11:15 last night. My GrSon played really well. I think he had 15 points, about 8-10 rebounds and 4-5 assists. They won the game 64-60. |

Don't worry...it is only going to get worse...I just blame it on the human condition and Obama of course....
What you don't hear about is the great things that happen everyday....the people who transform thier lives and win out against adversity. The randem acts of kindness that are happening all the time. Just this week one of those things happened and was recorded and the guy turns into a hero.....this is going on in other places all the time. So I take it upon myself to do what I can for whomever I can anytime I can if I come across a situation where I can give someone a helping hand. If we all do that it will make a difference. I have a head cold and that is slowing me down....but for Saturday night it's the HUSKER Big 10 Championship game. Sports bars and family rooms will be packed all over the Husker Nation to cheer on the Big Red. We should win this game...but you know how things go.....more on that later... Warm and foggy here this am so no Corvette unless it dries off this afternoon.... Have a great day Guru's |

Good point Marcus. There is always good news to be found if you look for it. With all the news outlets, one channel should be dedicated to reporting ONLY good news. People love to hear about terrible things though. It makes their exsistance tolerable. Any day we can say, I thought my life was bad until I saw what happened to those people.

I went by an auction this morning to see if there was anything I might want. They had a Craftsman edger that caught my eye. My wife saw a few things she wanted. LOL. She bought a picnic table and another patio table and chair set. That now puts the seating oprtions to over 80. She did pick up the edger for me for $35. Guess I 'll have to contact the Reverend Stig and see if he'd like to do a fund raiser here. I have plenty of seating. I'm more than ready to host a Guru Gathering. I have plenty of parking available too.

Another bid win. Older 12 guage single barrel shotgun. $45. I have to wait three days to get that one (three day waiting period on fire arms) and put it in my name. I'll get with my neighbor and we'll go over it, clean it and make sure it's in firing shape. Hell, I haven't cleaned a rifle in almost 40 years. I'm supposed to be getting a pistol for Christmas. Have to start building my home defense armory for when the anarchy starts. My neighbors are well armed and my BIL has a backhoe so we can bury the bodies quickly. Don't want to stink up the joint. |

Somehow the filter in the vacuum on the glass bead cabinet got pushed sideways. Glass dust everywhere, the C4 was gray. But on a brighter note, I hot a letter in the mail from a company in town offering me a free cremation. I wonder if I should take advantage of the offer right now. There may be a time limit on it. |

The shape of the first piece is what gave that one away for me. I recognized the bumper brackets after you said what they were. The windshield washer bracket looks different than the one that was on my 64. Never would have guessed the seat belt straps.
