Nice window-pane slacks, Glen. Very stylish. But the hair...hippie! Back then I was sporting a GI haircut, courtesy of the USN. And instead of a 914, I made the unfortunate mistake of buying a Triumph Spitfire. Worst car ever!

When just barely still in my teens I thought I wanted a Triumph TR6, then I drove a girlfriend's Mom's. It was a horrible experience. Just not into the uncomfortable windy noisy rattle trap too hot on my feet and legs, gear grinding transmission thing. No wonder her daughter was taking her everywhere in their beetle.

I was a rebel without a clue.

I've been that guy, too.

In Junior High I had some bell bottom Levis that were psychedelic with Peter Max designs on them. And I was still a nerd.

Avoided having my picture taken in them. Tried the mighty google but evidentially they were so rare they didnt exist. I bet a pair would be worth a bunch today.

Oh boy a short day filled with hury up and wait. Got a contractor coming some time to day and the dog (lab) woke up with a limp. Off to the vet.

Our new dogs get their first visit to our vet today. No big deal for the 2 yera old, just an checkup. The pup gets his first round of shots. He ain't gonna be happy.

The world is full of stupid people!

Two attorneys just came walking in and they wanted a picture of just two little houses in a neighborhood and a 24 x 36 for trail. They wanted something nice and new and high res. I told them we will start the airplane for $750 and everything else is additional. They figured we photographed everything like Google Earth does and have high res photos for sale cheap. I wish we did.

They will likely spend mega thousands for everything else in the trail, but we should donate out photos for free.

Tuesday I get to spend the day helping another part of our outfit do their work. Of course, my work doesn't standstill during all this. Lovely. On a positive note, just twentyone days until our SoCal work-cation.

At my old job no one else would fix one of the processors. It would go down and everyone that used it would go sit in the kitchen and chat while I fixed the processor by myself. I never needed it for my duties, but somehow not one employee wanted to learn how to fix it. Finally I told the boss I was done fixing it by myself. I will teach them how but I was done doing it for them.

Told by a friend recently to check myself and try to stop calling people stupid.

Was told at work by management that it's not what I say, or how I say it, but I make people feel stupid. I don't know how to react to that. maybe I'm just stupid.

It's FRIDAY!!!

Porsche-poor · 02-22-2013, 03:10 PM

Evening. Still no sign of the contractor. Grrrrr.

Rick V · 02-22-2013, 03:12 PM

I saw you pay the contractor with the same enthusiasm that he shows up for work.

Hehe. I often wear a t-shirt to work that says 'I'll be nicer if you be smarter'.

how does one make another person FEEL stupid? is it perhaps that they ARE stupid and speaking with someone who is NOT stupid makes that trait obvious?
