All taxes in business are paid electronically now.....so you can pre pay them on the first of the month and they won't take them out till the designated time.........I don't like paying taxes.....I feel I am an enabler feeding something that really needs an intervention and tough love to get back right.....if even possible.....

Today I had my day planned and nuts my driver is still out with the flu so I don't know what to do now......I need to get down to see my folks also....been putting that off because of work......hmmmm.....decision time....

I hope all of your decisions are easy ones today Guru's.........let's roll.....

Howdy! Today has started off like every other day this week - busy. Enough already! A nap would be great if I could work one into my schedule.

Have a good day, all!

ACTUALLY, I BELIEVE THEY WERE INVENTED FIRST :-)

I'm here....doing some laundry and cleaning up the house.

Ebay will be the death of me (because my wife will kill me). I've bought a few hundo more worth of tools in the past week. I think I'm done for now. Until next week. Maybe.

What's on the agenda for everyone today?

Ken, did you buy that Buick?

Morning guys....No sleeping in today, I have things to get done so we can make the trip to KC.

Marcus, that is a funny story. Probably no so funny when it happened, but funny now.

THE CHINESE BEAT THEM TO IT. THERE ARE VARIOUS THEORIES, THE ONE I FAVOR IS THAT THE CHINESE INVENTED ROCKETS AND EUROPEANS TWEAKED ROCKET POWDER INTO GUNPOWDER.

ACCORDING TO LEGEND, A BAVARIAN MONK NAMED SCHWARTZ WAS COMPOUNDING POWDER WITH HIS MORTAR AND PESTLE WHEN IT IGNITED, EJECTING THE PESTLE AND REMOVING SUNDRY FINGERS. HE CONTINUED HIS EXPERIMENT , ONE HANDED PERHAPS, AND CREATED THE FIRST MILITARY MORTAR.

THIS WAS AN UNDERWHELMING WEAPON, MUCH THE SIZE AND SHAPE OF AN OFFICE WASTEBASKET WITH A POWDER CHARGE IN THE BOTTOM AND A BUSHEL OF ROCKS ON TOP WHICH WERE INTENDED TO RAIN DOWN UPON THE ENEMY. NOT IN A CLASS WITH THE LONGBOW FOR EFFECTIVENESS :-)

You outa see what they guys go thru just to stick a racing seat in a GS for a track day, wiring under the seat, emulators for the seat sensors..........

Defeating the stupid active handling is even worse.

Yea, original harness.....and not one wire hooks up to a computer

Because I gave her a rise to the moon that she would never forget.

Unfortunately, one day I came home with a hundred dollars worth of tools...........

And she left me for a guy who collects Elvis plates.

That girl left the Elvis collector and came back cause I told her I collected tin foil.

We went on to take the pop music world by storm.
