Warriors win game 1! Go Golden State!

@RowdyRay Looks nice! Very good job on that restoration.

@RowdyRay That is one awesome ride!

Thanks guys. Sure he'll love it! It's not Christmas or his birthday. He's gotten to that stage and needs one. Nothing more fun than just surprising them with stuff. Plus I'm guaranteed a big hug and a thank you. Well worth it.

Have I told you guys about Grad Night? Grad Night is an event after our city's high school graduation that has turned one of the most dangerous night's for HS seniors into a safe and fun party. After the ceremony, most families go out to dinner or off to some local parties but the kids don't drink because they want to come to the Grad Night party at the school later that night. All seniors are brethalyzed on the way in and must be at the party by midnight. It's an all night event with casino games, a dj, magic show, food, bouncy things like Wipe Out or the sumu wrestling suits... everything from a baby farm animal petting zoo to a cash cube where they get in and grab at the money flying around. The night ends with breakfast served by some of the parents of the senior class. The whole thing is 100% free for the students to attend - all of the money is raised by the Grad Night committee from local businesses and personal donations from residents. Attendance rate is usually above 90%. It's a great event and I'm proud to be a part of it this year. I'm on the volunteers committee in charge of recruiting enough people to run the whole night and clean up afterwards. Tomorrow night is the big night. I'll be there from 8pm through 5am directing our volunteers and making sure things run smoothly (and have to be awake/alert for this ).

Great idea. I am sure you will do well. Hope it is incredibly successful!

Grad Night

I've seen this at local schools in the area over the years. Anytime parents take an active role in providing safe, fun alternatives for the kids it's an excellent idea. To often they don't, then wonder why their kids got in trouble. Several of the local churches hold "sleep ins" for teens where they show movies, have pizza, play games. The doors are locked, no one in, no one out till the next morning.

Sadie Mae talked us into a ride to Dairy Queen for desert

Excellant!

5 hours and 20ish minutes today.
25.37 for the week so far with tomorrow to go. Need a battery for a watch. Our store sells button cells for a mere $1.19. But the only one we have that I use is 377.
I need a 370/71 for one watch and a thicker same diameter for another.
Gonna run down to Cleveland to Walgreens. Not cheap but they will have what I need.

HEY! HEY! IT'S FRIDAY!

I'm making considerable progress on my work to-do list (woohoo!), which seems to be growing by the day (ugh!).

Ready for the weekend. Also, ready for the drive home when I can listen to my audiobook, Dark Matter. @terri, I'm just over halfway done. While I had it figured out within the first chapter, I'm thoroughly enjoying the ride and look forward to seeing how it ends. I could see this being turned into a movie. Once finished, I can give a more thorough review.

My radio gave a pop and then quit on me.
There was a gadget behind the radio that sent power through a thing behind the back seat. The gadget behind the radio was melted severely. I put the wires back that I could find and now have both front speakers working. And a too dead battery to start the truck. Charging it now.

Friday - Ho hum. Just another day.

 

[jcdeboever]

Friday, good. Maybe catch a tractor show tomorrow. Run away, become a homeless person. Wifes on a let's "buy a camper" mission. Holy, ball busters Betty. I have zero interest in camping. Pooping in a tank sounds rather fun but all the other nonsense makes me want to give myself a wedgie. Supposedly, I'll love it because that's what her family did growing up. The only other positive thing besides pooping in a tank, the size of a laundry tub, is that it will force me to hide in the woods and try to capture some birds in flight... oh boy, I'm cleaning my 100-400 tonight... shoot me in the head now before I die a slow death from lime disease. I suppose the upholstery will be coach fabric too... I just threw up in my mouth a little...

That depends on what she wants. If it's a little pop-up model then it's camping, moving on up the ladder we do whats called "Glamping". All the things we enjoy from home like central heat/air, king size bed, recliners, big screens, satellite, washer/dryer, etc........except it has wheels.

Oh I'm sure it will be a glamper model. I hope it comes with a darkroom and no port holes to stick a exhaust hose through
