Through FB, a bunch of us from HS have kept together (loosely). We get together for dinner every few months. Sometimes 7 guys show up, sometimes 16. Everytime it's great fun. We literally laugh for about 3 hours straight. I'm surprised we haven't been kicked out of any establishments yet, though asking for the private room seems to help buffer us from the rest of the paying public. We're getting together for a Dodgers game and dinner afterwards later this month.

Evening Y'all
My thirty reunion was last year and I never gave it a thought, I have kept up with the seven people I cared to after school, forget it.
I was never really in any kind of clicks in school so what the hey.
I played football, hung out with the burn outs, partied with the goths, and did the bookworms. I got along with everybody but really didn't fit in anywhere.
I had a cool car, a decent high school job so I always had cash, and left most of that in the past

My 30th is this July and we aren't going although we will be in town for the annual car cruise weekend. I have been on FB more since being home and have been in contact with some of the old group that way. I don't need/want to do anymore.

Most of the folks I went to school with can't believe I am still wearing the same size jeans I did way back when and then I hear the under the breath mumbelings because I am concerned enough to stay in shape. Not worth my temper

Gaaack.

Our house has three bathrooms. The master bathroom of course, the guest bathroom and MY BATHROOM in the garage. It has a sign glued down the the seat is to remain up at all times. One of the ladies staying here as a guest has decided to let the couple use the guest bathroom and she has her makeup and crap in MY bathroom. The bathroom with no foo foo spray can, just a box of matches. And she is in violation of the rules for the lid!

Can't you just set a bucket and a roll of TP in the back yard?

What, for me?

I do have a bucket and t-p in the tornado shelter. I am thinking that is a last resort!

Glen, I've got a bedside potty chair you can have.

I've also got an antique porcelain pot with lid, aka commode. It was kept by the bed so you wouldn't have to make a trip to the outhouse in the middle of the night.

Only getting 40psi at the end of the fuel rail on the Porsche. Shouldn't it be higher than that?

From memory, I think the book says it supposed to be 4atm. And again from memory, 1atm = 14psi. So to me, it sounds like its a little low. Then again, my memory is not what it used to be.

Well, that sucks. Found out that my old skiing bud passed away from cancer last year.

He was the type that was always making people laugh. A couple of years after we graduated his older brother took his life in the family garage. His dad found him and had a heart attack right there and died. Just incredibly sad.

One thing most of our HS friends remember are the legendary house parties he had.

The nice thing about being in the country with no neighbors is the ability to water the lawn at any time of the day, and need no matches.

Matches? Aren't they for the opposite of watering the lawn?
