When you're out running errands and the guys on the crew think it would be REALLLY funny to decorate a package sent to you and leave it sitting on your desk for a couple of hours.....

Thanks Baz!

The wife does routinely ask me why I didn't become a Vet(easy, didn't have the $$ for Vet School) or a Marine Biologist since I really dig all things marine related. What is it they say again about hind-sight?


When you "think" you have a grand idea that turns into being a turd of an idea.

Since we tend to walk Henry in the morning hours before work in the dark and want to be visible on our crappy narrow road.

So I had the great idea of visiting a local safety supply store and get one of those reflective vests. What it had gotten me the "two" days I have worn it you ask? Two separate people, one on foot and one in a car stop and tell/ask about the potholes that have gotten really bad since we got 70" of rain.

I'm not sure of to many County/City DOT employees that wear shorts, flip flops walking a 16 lb Schnauzer. Placerville can't boast about have the sharpest "tools" in the shed.
