But little they know..That it's so hard to find

Bought four new books for under $4 a piece.  I found that I am drawn to books by interesting covers.  It has nothing to do with content or authors I like.  If the cover isn’t interesting I am probably not going to purchase it.

Took care of my very efficient squirrel trap.  If you don’t know ask me because I’m sure the ASPCA would burn my house down if I posted a description of it online.

Found out that the Del-Ton kit that I have been drooling over is very easy to put together, good quality, and very accurate for the price.

The Springfield XD40 WILL be my next firearms purchase.  I have found a great price and it seems to fit my hand much better than any other .40.  One of my friends has the 9mm version of this gun and I had a shot at one a year or so ago, but the cash wasn’t there.  It will be and soon.

Learned Surplus Sales and Surplus City are two completely different stores.  Should have verified that before driving all over Paducah.  Neither place was really productive for me though.

Learned that it is becoming much easier to spend a ton on our animals and next to nothing on ourselves.  Priority problems?

Mowed the lawn and cleaned up the yard a bit without feeling like it was a burden.  I am really getting old.

For these.  I like the brown set.  Old school feel with new school technology.

In other news, plans have been made for the Music City Brewer’s fest.  Really looking forward to that experience.

Some time back I was at a motorcycle shop helping a friend look for a new bike.  While we were at Indian dealership in Paducah I saw a “new” Thruxton.  Usually I don’t get down on the Cafe style racers but this thing was amazing looking.  With the exception of the over-sized bar end mirrors I was in love.  Well they’ve done it again.  The Thruxton SE.  Although I could deal without the bug shield, I’m pretty sure I’d be in love with this beauty as well.

Justice will always be had in the end. Right will prevail.  Stand fast to what you deserve and you will receive it.

Just remember…”On a long enough timeline, the survival rate for everyone drops to zero.”

During the job interview process most companies will try to assess how good you are at managing your personal stress.  They want to make sure that you are not going to bring your home life to work creating a more stressful environment.  The dilemma becomes that those same companies do nothing to make sure that you do not take work stress home with you.  As an employer you do not want my work life hindered and as long as I make sure to abide by that the employer believes that I respect them.  However they will not respect me enough to make sure that I am in a position where my work stressors are not following me home.  Employers should recognize that stress crossover is inevitable as long as it does not become a significant factor in ones productivity.

I’m in.  Now to begin training for my rally racing career.  I need a co-pilot/navigator.  Anyone interested?

You quoted our forefathers in saying that our inalienable rights are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.  You have “taken care of” the life part, the liberty part is a daily evolution, but the happiness part?  Well I would be much happier a millionaire.  When can I expect my check?

Tell me your life is better than mine.  Friday night I came home from work to find a candle light dinner in my newly redecorated back yard with shrimp and pasta, homemade marinara and vino.  My wife looked like Marilyn Monroe and the dogs were nowhere to be seen.

Last night I came home to a grill that was stoked and ready to go, neighbors over to play a little cornhole, a cold beer, and a newly redecorated front yard.  Fast forward four hours, we  had some of the best ribs I’ve ever cooked, so good in fact that I didn’t even get to the side item because I was too focused on the swine.  After a little bit of ownage handed out to all comers we headed inside for a relaxing end to the evening.

I love my wife and life.

So we just got back from watching another Bending Karma show and I feel musically fulfilled for the evening.  I know tomorrow will come too soon considering Sunday school and church will be an hour earlier due to daylight savings time.  Why do we still observe this?  What benefit does this hold for the current generations other than to mess with our sleep cycles?  I think we should start a petition to do away with this ridiculous tradition of daylight savings time.  Parts of Indiana don’t observe it and they haven’t imploded.  Then again I’ve met people from those parts of Indiana and if thats the affect that not observing daylight savings time has then I guess I’ll just stick to tradition.
