…..Will You Still Feed Me?”…… I wasn’t sure if I wanted to let the Community know just how old MRB is, but, if you know the song that the two opening lines are from, the secret’s out…… October 3rd was the day, and, I can’t believe I’ve reached that plateau in my life….. Heck, I […]
Time to enjoy what few liberties and rights we have left…… They’re being taken away faster than I can count (maybe it’s not that fast then…eh?)…… Anyways, a couple of 4th of July pointers: 1. Don’t blow thy self up or apart….. AND, 2. Don’t blow-up anybody you don’t intend to blow-up…… Happy 4th of […]
According to the News this morning, today is “National Towel Day” in honor of Douglas Adams…… I’m hoping everyone in the MR Community knows who he is and the importance of your own personal towel….. If not, I hope you don’t get picked up by the Vorlons, and if you do, hopefully Ford Prefect will […]
We need a new one……
……So says Prairie Dog Bob, and, he did NOT see his shadow, so, it’s going to be an early Spring…… PDB says that the term “Ground Hog” is a derogatory slang term for the noble, intelligent, handsome, and strong Prairie Dog….. Don’t ever call PDB a “Terra Hog”, at least, not in his presence…… PD […]
Yep, the last Monday in January has been named “Bubble Wrap Day”…… Originally designed to be used as wallpaper, yes, wallpaper!….. Some of that late ’50’s futuristic look of the future due to the intense interest in space travel mixed the fear of nuclear Holocaust with the Cold War going on with Russia….. As we […]
……..to all the members and followers of the MR Community….. It’s a New Year and a new starting point…… I’m glad 2009 has gone it’s way and all it’s weirdness with it…… I won’t even go into all the strangeness that I’ve been though during the last part of 2009 – Let’s just start out […]
…..My BIRTHDAY!…… …..It’s MY Birthday, YEAH!….. …..AND, I’m spending it in the Great NW with some of our Northwester MR Community members….. A Great (can’t say that word too many times!) Experience will be had by ME, and, hopefully those around me will tolerate the whims and wishes of the Birthday Boy…… Sorry, I just […]
As just said in the previous post I just got home at 1300 today Labor Day. Now I work in one of the most federally regulated industries that there is, But my industry feels that the holidays should be abolished and we drivers should live in our trucks 24/7 365. Now our company owners and […]
….Independence Day!…… Everybody out there have a fun and safe 4th…… While you’re celebrating our Freedom to celebrate (party ’til you fall down), think about all those Veteran’s and present military personnel who defended this country for that exact reason…… Yeah, yeah, I know we, as a country, seem to be losing some of those […]
I don’t know if it’s considered a real holiday, and it doesn’t carry as much weight as Mother’s Day, but, if you are a father hopefully you’ll see something from your offspring…… I made out like a bandit, myself….. I now have an iPod in my possession!…… It great to have that much music, pics, […]
I just glanced at my calendar and noticed that the 22nd day of April is a really big day!….. Not only is it “Earth Day”, it is “Administrative Professionals Day”!…… Is that like a “Temporary Secretary (Sir Paul) Day”?….. It just seems like a big name for a boring, thankless job….. Don’t get me wrong….. […]
…..is decked out in his wet-weather gear, and splish-splashing down the bunny trail…… It’s a wet, cloudy, and cold Easter here in the Heartland…… I must admit it is a sight that you rarely see – An Easter bunny in a camouflaged poncho with a rucksack full of wet eggs, the colors running off them […]
As I am sure everyone is aware of, yesterday was Ground Hog Day……. Well, I decided to see what our local version of the ground hog – the prairie dog – actually did on February 2nd….. So-o-o, I staked-out the abode of one of our local P-dogs…. Let’s call him Bob…… Early yesterday morning, Bob […]
Yep, it’s that time of year….. The countdown has officially begun…… We’re already two days past Thanksgiving, and, only 26 days away from Christmas (add +7 if you want to skip Christmas and go directly to celebrating New Years – Hic!)……. People never fail to amaze me……. On the sad side, I heard a Walmart […]
