Good Monday morning folks.

I think the thread had a record few posts this weekend. Was everyone busy with the 4th?

Today I finally won control of the alarm clock. I get an extra 30 minutes of sleep and came in right on time. Yea!

Control of the alarm clock? Are you sure you're winning?

Yea, since getting married she has had the alarm clock control. She was using female "logic" so first off she was setting the time to 12 minutes (don't ask my why 12 minutes) early. So in the middle of the night if I woke up enough to wonder what time it was I had to do arithmetic in my head to know what time it is. Now imagine you are just partially awake and you wonder if you have 5 minutes until you have to get up or hours left. You see the time is 3:07 and you have to subtract 12 to come up with ..... Well now you are awake!.

The other thing is she liked to get to work an hour early to get a good parking spot. Parking is NOT an issue here.

Morning and I can count to 99 with my fingers. Toes, not since they removed the little piggy that got none on my right foot.

Each Finger on my right hand is worth 1. The Thumb worth 5. Each Finger on my left hand is 10, and the thumb 50. Kinda like counting with roman numerals. Maybe that's where they got it, IDK.

After tornados went thru just a few blocks of a friend's home in Moore a couple of times, he had a storm shelter installed in his garage floor. The company was good at it, only took them 2 hours.

If I were nekkid and using the roman numerals trick I could count to 19,999. But if a pretty girl walked by my count would be off by 10,000.

Sorry Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that.

GTS is in the shop getting rings.

However, I'm sure that if you posted on the 928 board on rennlist someone there would be more than happy to provide pictures and dimensions pretty quickly. Especially if you posted pictures of your balls in the request. I'm sure it would generate a lot of interest in your balls too. They would go nuts!
