Here's to hot womens with sharp knives! I'm going in to have the eye surgery tomorrow, the lovely Mrs. (damn that r) Grace Shin shall be preciding. I hope I get a decent shiner out of it, it's been entirely too long since I've actually earned one and I wear them well. Biggest pain will be no swimming for a month at least. It has...

The craziest thing happened today. Some of you know that I work on boat lifts, others maybe don't know what a boat lift is. Basically it's a machine that installs onto a dock & raises your boat above the water so it stays clean while you're not using it. This morning I go out to check out a lift that's leaking. It's in the down...

Hey, I was in BC last night at the Boulder Basics meeting @ 8pm at that church, I think it's called grace? Anywhoo, good meeting, interesting characters you have up there. They all got to share but the most interesting looking one (an old guy named sander(?) that I called on passed.

I bet that turtle is going to have a great story to tell all his lake buddies. Good to ehar that you didnt die in the pooter. Yet.
So I almost died in Colorado. Ok not really, dad almost died. My brother-in-law & I did alright. Or at least we kept up appearances while almost dying which is pretty much as important as living really. Gordon lost his wedding ring to the river. I got a cut on the inside of my ear (??) but not a scratch anywhere else. Twice last year...

i have been wanting to try some whitewater kayaking until now...though i will probably still give it a go because i won't be on the pooter...glad you're still with us
i___zombie:
Glad to see you are still with us!
I'm off to Colorado again for a little R n R, I wish I meant rock n roll even though I do need the rest. I've got this idea bouncing around in my head about selling out here and buying a piece of land in the mountains, maybe with a river in the back yard, find an el-cheapo mobile home to live in and build...

I'm here because there's jobs here and none back home. Well, that and the semi-surreality of it. It's the superficiality, the unfriendliness and quite frankly, the L.A. mindset that make me sometimes wish I were back home. Well, that and my lost friends and family back home.
Anyways, careful on the bike ride. My friend the Mormon/techy/grandpa/biker (I shit you not) was on a trip and went to help another biker with a flat. He hit a deer. Got lucky, just lost the windshield. Must've been the underwear, huh?

colorado is beautiful. maybe you will move there, no? save your soul while there's still time, m'boy. ps - i enjoyed the piece on your interesting neighbor very much. pss - i still like you a lot.
I've been wanting to introduce you to one of my favorite neighbors for a while now. I've known him going on 20 years, and he's yet to run out of cool stories. He goes by Sander Nelson, but he's better known as Sandy, aka Mr. Teen Beat. He's truly one of my favorite people, there's just nobody else like the guy. . We should...

E, yer awesome.
When you're ready to fix up your vintage tube gear, I'll definitely hook you up with my tube dealer: Hand selected gourmet tubes for small money! You should set up a vintage stereo all by itself. Get some old school Cerwin Vegas or JBLs with 15s!
Oh yeah, go say hi to my Creepy Internet Girlfriend...

Thanks, dude.

I need to vent briefly. I'm a bit of a loner- not at all antisocial mind you, I fully enjoy the company of others- but I've trained 5 guys this spring and it's really trying on me. I LOVE my work, my preference is to kick ass and get shit done, things generally get done slower with another guy along for at least a month...

T Rex was great! Some of it hasn't aged so well as stuff that Bowie or Lou Reed did back then. And by that I simply mean that when you listen to it you immediately think about when it was recorded. It sounds a bit out-of-place. But then there's "20th Century Boy." Powerful song, and it fits in any decade since.
Shit, I should have mentioned this a week or so ago. We have a derby bout tonight at 8PM (doors at 7) at Commercial Center against Chicago. If you give me a shout on my cell or whatever I could get you put on the list. I'm now the "Stats Geek."

toady marks 5 years since this pathetic drunk has had a drink and I could not be more pleased about it! I'm going to celebrate my milestone of personal and civic responsibility with some sort of reckless behavior. Probably just riding a motorcycle fast as I'm fresh out of explosives. ideas are welcome though.

Awesome Babe! Congrats
I think the motorcycle was the perfect idea...hope you did it 
meant to hit new post, but must have hit edit and deleted the last one. Anyhoiw, It turns out that hearing through the grapevine can distort info, who would have thought? Apparently the fella who worked for the marina & got burned isn't nearly as bad as I'd heard. Burns on 20% (rather than 80%) of his body and they're mostly second degree rather than...

Hope you're doing OK with the vision business. I've been diabetic for about thirty years, so for me vision loss is less a question of IF than it is WHEN and HOW BADLY. And the knowledge that to some degree, I'll know I did it to myself. But enough about my shit.
Take care of yourself, and enjoy your recoup vacation. I'm off week this work. I like how that typo looks so I'm leaving it unfixed.

So what's going on in your world this weekend?
What's new? All the eye news is as best as could be hoped for, should be a simpler matter than either of the last two operations, although there is some risk of messing up my downward vision. I can live with a compromise if I can get back on the bikes with low clip-ons. My priorities are obviously idiotic, but hey, that's me. Operation is...

Some promising news about my eyes: First, Dr. Shin is still very hot, too bad she now has the HUGEST rock on her hand I've ever seen. She operated on me in 1997, her staff searched for my records and concluded they must have been destroyed by now. But she sent someone to look elsewhere and they found 'em. This is very good because I...
