OK, people. It is the year 2005 and we’re coming quickly upon 2006. Someone really should have found a use for lint by now. I’ve taken multiple bags full from my dryer trap over the years. If you are out there reading and you know of some use for it, please [...]
Rafting was a blast…at the beginning. About halfway through or so the rapids ended and we just drifted down the river for an hour or more. I’m the kind of guy who wants all-rapids, all the time during the entire 3 hour trip, but it was not to be.
All in all we had [...]

I forgot to mention one thing in my list of countdowns. I get my first tooth crown today. Yay me. Actually, the crown is going to help me out quite a bit. (Bit makes me think of byte which makes me think of teeth. I’m overtired.)
I need a second crown, [...]
I have two active countdowns.
The first is a countdown to Friday. I have Friday off from work because I’m going on a white water rafting trip with men from my church. On Friday afternoon we leave from the church, pick up a quick dinner, and have a time of devotion and prayer. On [...]
Two months from today I will no longer be in my youth. I will turn 30 on that day, a dread event indeed.
In my twenties, I could still get away with being silly and often goofy, but when I reach that magical number will I suddenly mature? Will I, regardless of [...]
I would tell them that they don�t have to be such a spaz. I, of all people, know the joy of a good spaz now and then, however these squirrels are constantly jumpy. If I open my big garage door, they have to run full-tilt across the garage roof, jump onto a nearby [...]
Growing up I lived on a subdivision. All of the kids that lived on the road, as well as kids that lived in neighboring houses, would wait for the bus together every morning. At one point someone brought a football to the bus stop and suddenly all our mornings changed. We would [...]

SIR TREY:
Ha ha! Hiyya! [Deletes Hansel’s BEER thread]

I’ve had this idea brewing around in my head for quite a while. You know all the people who complain about this country? Not just the ones who complain, but don’t do anything about it…heck, I’m in that category. All I do to try to fix things is to vote. From [...]
Due to lack of coverage in my department, I find myself, as the supervisor, picking up the open shifts. I’ll be working 8 hours on Saturday, 8 on Sunday and 12 on Monday. Have fun on your days off! I’ll be trying to stay sane or write something creative at work to [...]
After I wrote the below postal service post, I found that at some point during the last week the postal worker had left some mail in between my screen door and front door. It is summer and the windows are up on the screen door, allowing the breeze to blow through when the front [...]
