Haven't cut my hair or trimmed my beard since the foot thing started. Look like I might work at Duck Commander.

You will need to work on your accent. You will need more Louisiana twang.

I occasionally like the rugged look

I'm sitting in a jiffylube for the first time in my life... I figured hubs has done enough for one week and ill give him a break. I, on the other hand, have gotten dirty and greasy enough for one week .

There was a family owned quick lube place a few buildings away from my old office. I could drive by and see there was no line and just pull in. They did not mind when I watched them in the work bay. I could watch them tighten up the drain plug, and chat with the folks. They all loved my El Camino. They used Vavoline oil & filters. They did it in a few minutes and I did not get dirty. The only downside was when they lubed the grease fittings they would squirt extra grease on the suspension. It was kinda messy but not a major downside.

I did that for 5 or 6 years before I changed jobs. That is the only time someone else has changed my oil, and olny on the Elky.

It's just the equinox..so I really don't care who does it as Lon as it isn't me. Huge pain in the arse to do anything on that car. You have to take half of the front end off to change a bulb. I

Stijn!!

Congrats, Jim!

And Jeff, that picture is just precious of your granddaughter.

My hair cut and color takes 2 hours. I love it! It is like a pampering. My gal does the best scalp massage.

Nice pic, D. What's with the stacked stones? I saw a lot of those in Iceland, too.

it is a monument to the mormon pioneers first entering the salt lake valley, i think. i've never bothered to read it! next time i am there, i'll see what it has to say.

i am going to have to get the rubbing compound out. that smudge on the door is from someone hitting my car with their mountain bike, while it was parked in front of my house. there are other marks that need some attention.

D, that looks like fun driving country to get up there to the lookout point, did Ingrid get up there without too much coughing and spluttering, she hasn't been out for a run for a while.
