    What tickles your pickle

    I've met a fair number of "famous" people. Only two have been getting gas. The other is I met Hank Williams at a gas station in small town of 200 in East Texas about 25 years ago. Did my thesis research on property that belonged to Willie Nelson, got to meet some interesting people there a...

    What do you do?

    I didn't know anyone who commuted less than 30 minutes except the shop foreman. His mother in law died and left him a house around the corner. He could have walked to work but he said he was afraid a guy from the shop would run over him lol. I commuted 1-1/2 hours and I would say on average...

    What do you do?

    The industry I work in is pretty tight knit. I wouldn't even put by request tho. I just leave it off until they ask. There's a 99% chance anybody they put down they will know or know someone pretty close to them. I've asked for a few of them. I don't really call and ask about soandso. It...

    Looking for a professional medical opnion RE: MS and Spinal Taps

    Glad you are headed in the right direction on that now anyway. I don't think you had any chance of being accused as a Dr. shopper with something like MS. People who shop doctors for disability do so with the disability of the month type of stuff I would think. People with actual debilitating...

    Some interesting stats from the first 4 weeks of the season. More than 20 stats that jump out through 4 weeks of college football The only one for LSU was they are the only team to not have a turnover. Lots of interesting stuff. - Seven teams are perfect on fourth down this season...

    It's not like A&M is king of the SEC either. I think so far they haven't finished higher than tied for 3rd in the West.

    I wouldn't ever stop to eat Mexican food while in the state of MS, which I believe is where he is from. Just like I would never eat "cajun" food while in San Antonio.

    What do you do?

    He didn't get a bad reference because he didn't ask. I think he didn't ask because he knew he would have got a bad one. I do always ask/inform someone ahead of time normally tho.

    I tried to find such a house. Apparently the agents where I looked only knew two phrases. Granite countertops and crown moulding. They literally couldn't fathom someone buying a smaller or older house in an effort to get more land or at least a place to build a shop. All they wanted to show...

    Ever use someone as a reference without their knowledge? Friend called me this morning saying soandso put you down as a reference. He never asked. Oddly enough he used an incorrent number for me but the person who requested references knew mine. I gave him a bad one and would have refused if...

    Met a "famous" person while getting gas this afternoon. This is the 2nd time it's happened, both while getting gas lol. Nobody you would be interested in, but it was interesting to me. Just odd to get out and get gas in the middle of nowhere and realise the person that pulls up behind you is...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    Believe so. They are supposed to last 5-6 years or something like that. I'm sure each brand is different. Mine lasted just over 6 years.

    Lots of people complain about having to take it to a dealer to fix those TPMS issues. I put a little piece of electrical tape on mine to cover the warning up lol. A tip from the dealer. I figure if I can't tell my 33" tall tires on my truck are low I deserve to die. I kind of see it on low...

    I cooked chicken and sausage jambalaya for lunch for about 30 people. By "cook" I mean I bought all the stuff and watched. My brother in law cooked it, he's not a great cook but he kicks ass at this. His father won the big jambalaya festical cook off for years and years in a row that hundreds...

    The one I posted is made and marketed by Heckler & Koch (HK). Several others are made such as UZI. You don't even take it out of the case. You just pull the trigger on the handle and point. It's rumored that lots of security types carry them in areas they don't really want to call attention of...

    I don't think it's taxed at a lower rate. Just dyed diesel hasn't had the highway tax paid on it for highway use. It's about $0.40/gallon depending on your state. They sell it here and it's like $1.60/gallon for off road use. Every so often you see the state checking truckers for it. They...
