One thing I'm going to love about living near Seattle will be the proximity to the baseball stadium. I might not like the Mariners (though they used to have one of my favorite ball players of all time), but my brother (who is a salesman) get's awesome seats for the games. The funny thing is, the San Antonio Missions is the farm team for the Mariners, but despite living right next to the Missions stadium, I've never been to a Missions game. Too bad the Giants aren't playing any games at the Mariner's stadium.

I just looked over the whole schedule. Jeez, it's fucking stupid. Baseball would be so much more popular if each team didn't play each other ten times every fucking month. With 165 games a year, PER TEAM, it's too damn hard for anyone to follow what's going on, even die hard fans. I say let 'em play 16 games a year, per team, just like the NFL. This will make the sport more popular for two reasons. With fewer games, each team will have to play their heart out every game - so every game will be more fun to watch, more exhilirating, more intense. And with fewer games to follow, more people will get interested in their local teams cause they'll be able to follow the whole season.

Just think, one team in the MLB plays as many games as every NFL team combined, per season. One team. That's INSANE! That's why most baseball fans only watch the play offs, cause that's much easier to follow.

You should take the route through CA. if you are coming up the 99 or the 5, I will drive out and have lunch with you (or if you need a place to stay...)

Post your resume on Monster.com for the Seattle area , then sit back and wait for calls or e-mails

The MSN and Yahoo Hot Jobs sites are free , you can post your resume on them for free , if you don't want to pay for monster

I don't know - California is pretty great, too. Yesterday was 87 degrees and sunny, with a touch of a breeze coming off the ocean.

I can understand why you would fly with delta after that kind of effort.

The airlines suck even more when you miss your flight and want to buy a ticket on the next available flight , they basically add an extra zero to the price

Moving!! We better meet and hang out at least once before that happens

We have two types of shad out here and I've caught a few over 20 inches and cut them into bait strips right away , there is a major shad industry up here , and people eat them too .

Just watched "Point: What's Your Point" or some shit on Jay Leno. Absolutely fucking hilarious!

Want a disturbing image in your head? Watch Leno's show and try and picture him having sex. Not with you, but with anyone. Somehow that just freaked me out in a weird way - kind of like asking yourself "What's the sound of one hand clapping" or "If a tree falls in the woods, and no one is around, does it make a sound?".

Oh, and I watched "Basic Instinct" for the first time in a long time just now. Forgot how much nudity was in it. Both those women were fucking hot back then, especially their bodies. Most women now-a-days are so fake that they only look good in clothes, but once you get them naked they're repulsive, cause it doesn't look real. Lately we've taken body modification via surgery to a new extreme that leaves little hope for the future...

So they're still having tons of problem with deer in the uber rich neighbors north of San Antonio. Even spending city money to hire professionals to humanely remove them and whatnot. Think I might go by the feed store and get a couple hundred pounds of crushed corn and drive up and down the streets of the neighborhood throwing it into peoples lawns. Create a little havoc

We have a wicked deer overpopulation up here in Connecticut , some residents even hire bowhunters to hunt the deer in their yards , during the winter up here hundreds of deer actually die of starvation when there is snow on the ground . I use my tags and the ones my family gets for the farm to hunt deer to be donated to the local homeless shelter , the highway dept gives the shelter roadkilled deer which is kind of fucked up if you ask me .

If you have access to a broadcast spreader you can mount it on your truck and drive through the rich area's spreading the feed , after a couples of days of that , the deer will start eating all the landscape plants in the rich people's yards . The fucking deer allready ate all my small shrubs around my house , this spring I'm gonna fix the holes in the stone walls around the driveway gates and fence in the back fourty except for a couple of gates to leave open around hunting season

Most people have problems getting used to not setting the hook when using circle hooks . I got a few of my Russian employees hooked on surfcasting a couple of years ago , when they would try to set the hook with the big twelve foot poles they would often fall flat on their backs , that was allmost as funny as them tightenings their drags all the way resulting in their poles being yanked out of their hands and lost at sea due to a big striper hit , they would run into the water after their poles and end up losing their cellphones too The best part was they would have this happen three or fours times before they learned their lesson

OK, no hot water again and I am a VERY fucking pissed off tenant.

Oh, and I'm such a geek I inflated my mini raft and was sitting in it in my living room to figure out the best configuration for when I take it out on the lake this weekend. Need to be prepared, cause in all likelihood I will be swimming back That lake gets a little choppy for such a small raft!

Have you tried circle hooks , they tend to set themselves and seldom result in guthooking . How do you cook your catfish ?

You going to Washington? Never been myself, but might visit my brother some day. Hes at Ft Lewis in the Army for about 3 years I think.
Good luck with the dumb bitch you gotta deal with.

People fish for catfish everywhere in this country , there is lots of little ten pounders in all the rivers and lakes around here

On my journey I found what I was looking for; an answer. Unfortunately the answer was not yet. Still, I did find some cool shit, to the tune of about a hundred bucks, but it was stuff I've been wanting for a while, so that was cool. The $200 speeding ticket wasn't cool. The other ticket will get dismissed. I got damn lucky in that the cop didn't pull me out of the truck, as he should have (I'm growing a beard, so I look like a bum who stole a nice truck) because he was also on drunk driving detail, as he would have found my concealed weapon (one of my purchases a bad ass knife, not a gun, but a very illegal knife still), and that would have been a problem. For the last five years my ID has been valid, but with the wrong address. On top of that I am currently driving a truck that, while insured, is not titled in my name, nor registered in my name, so there's that too. I got lucky on this stop - as always. Just need to figure out how the defensive driving classes work. Usually I just have my lawyer make them disappear (he's childhood friends with the city D.A. ) for a very small fee (it gets smaller every time, and the last few times was free cause I send him so much business), but this time I think I'll just do the courses. I was saving them for when I got a ticket on his vacation, but since I'm moving I won't, hopefully, need them in the near future.

Now I'm going to play with some of the stuff I bought!

Were there real camel jockeys riding the camels

i just saw the most hilarious fucking thing. Pres. Bush was at some kind of benefit for tsunami relief with George HW Bush and Clinton, and he's talking about the benefit and forgot what it was called, while holding up a book with the name of the benefit on it, and stops in midsentence, stumbles with his words for a minute, then turns the book around to read it aloud. I know we all have brain farts sometimes, but that's still fucking hilarious. Whatever your political leaning, that's some classic shit!
