Rank did have its privileges. At least I wasn't Navy or Marines. They required a much lower GPA.

That's infotainment yer lookin Fer!!!

The troublesome one has decided to move to Florida with her oldest sister. I have more hope in this decision than her others. When she was away from this area and her old friends she has done well in the past. I'm sure her son is not really too happy with this. I'll need to talk to him and explain that this might be his moms last chance at getting her life together.

How are things with your dad\?

$3.45 for diesel the past few weeks. A couple of months ago a 3/4 tnak fill up would cost me around $45-50. Now it costs $80.

Thanks Brandon, you socialist mother****er

Yeah man; she needs a different environment and some real friends.
The little rascal is learning, can easily see the negative so promote the positive.

Dad is doing good; he's being named in a lawsuit against his VFW.
LaShonda and Taniqua are suing because they fell when sitting in stacked chairs, even though there are a couple of signs specifically saying "DO NOT STACK CHAIRS"

He was calling bingo that night; and these two mondo buffalos fell out of the chairs somehow.

Your VFW needs a " No Hefalumps " sign.

Hopefully things turn for the better for her with the move, sometimes change like that can be a big help. Goodluck to her.

Well, on the plus side, you are qualified to do your own electrical work if needed.

You are a brave and trusting man. She wants a boxster? You are brave, trusting, and rich.
I definitely need to practice more. Haven’t bought ammo in a while.
