You will lose your #### with bb 4.1.

Good luck today

Ever watch a movie next to someone who's already seen it?

"Wait for the next part" - Yes, I'm waiting, that's now stories usually go, thanks.

"Oh watch this part, it is awesome!11!" - Yes, I'm watching, that's how watching stories usually goes, thanks.

"Remember this scene, it comes into play later" - Yes,I'm sure I'll remember it. That's how following along with stories usually goes, thanks.

"Did you see that?!" - Yes, thats how watching a story usually goes for the watcher, thanks.

That's how I feel inside when someone brings up BB in here.

I've kind of enjoyed people's excitement over it in here, even though they all watched it ages ago. :(

Last night my Mom texted me asking if we were okay. I get one of these texts any time something happens in anywhere Texas. Tornado in Amarillo, flooding in San Antonio, nuclear bomb in Dallas (wishful thinking, I know), whatever as long as it happened in Texas. Never mind the fact that I could leave my house at dawn, drive all day heading west and still be in Texas.

Evidently there was ice somewhere in Texas last night. :shuked: That, or she's just now catching up on the news broadcasts from two weeks ago.

Seems harsh.

It's Oktoberfest, buddy. Underbridge areas should be safe from the blast.

I haven't slept in quite a while.

Finally am after the trip this weekend. No matter how late I went to sleep I kept waking up by 9. The only day I didn't was when I went to bed at 9:30

Stryker> HI

Congrats on making the cut for my new bases leeg! You mentioned wanted a co-pwner...Hell Toupee is on the outside looking in right now, so you could tap him in. Or you could get on team Sammy. OR, you could run it solo or get your own life partner. Either way, we're excited to have you and your shtick!

I don't have much of a notebook on Hell Toupee - do you?

I can attempt it on my own but it will all depend on draft date. That was the main reason for wanting a co-owner (along with being a total n00b)

 

[General Malaise]

Wife and I are going in 3 weeks. Staying at The D (The Fitz). Haven't stayed there since the change over. Looks slightly improved.

I haven't seen the renovated rooms personally, but from the pictures I've seen, you should be pleasantly surprised.

The second floor has been branded "Vintage Vegas," making perfect for old coots like you and me. There is good video poker up there, and Sigma Derby, the mechanical horse-racing game that is a blast with a large, drunken group. Bob>end of September, you say?

I always liked the Fitz. You got more than you paid for and the service was always good. I also like how "vertical" it is. No room is really more than a minute from the elevator and the elevator lets you our right into the casino. No extra hiking.

Very convenient for you on your Rascal scooter.

Wish you were here.

Can I get a link to some of these please? I'd like to send a few dozen of them to a coworker. Thanks.

Hoping we can find an evening, probably during the week to DO IT live. Happy to answer any questions or help provide info via PM or whatever. :hugs:

The women in the waiting room talking about breast feeding. Holy cow (udderly gross).

To bad it's a c-section and you don't get to see a hot nurse do the labia massage on your wife.

I haven't slept in quite a while.

Wish I had an easy way to give you a muscle relaxer, you'll never want to wake up. Thought I might have died there for awhile.

I'll be playing the role of dead money, thank you very much.

If the draft is on a weekday, my odds of being able to do it significantly go up. Are you thinking February or March?

I like this live-blogging child birth thing Abe is doing. THAT could be your next big thing.

Glll today Abe.

 

[Drifter]

Fresh from Vegas with cash in my pocket the wife convinced me to take the Great Griswold West Coast Family Road trip this summer

3 days on the Oregon Coast during the Lincoln City kite festival

Short jaunt through the Redwoods, Avenue of the Giants

3 days in Yosemite

3 days in Anaheim (god help me)

3 days in San Diego on the beach

long drive home

My kids are probably too young to remember and realize how spoiled they are. Too bad because there's no chance I'm doing this again.

 

[Mr.Pack]

I am going to lose my #### today.

I am conducting SAP training and am in day 3 of 14. So far we've been typing in the transaction codes to get where we need to go, but today I showed the class the 'Favorites' menu -- pretty much bookmarks/shortcuts. I hear a loud <sigh> from one of my class members (she's also an employee of mine) so I ask "what's wrong?"

"I just don't know which way is faster."



Typically in the work day I can tune out her constant negativity but I've had two full days of it now. I swear she'd complain about the sky being too blue. How can people go through life being so negative about everything?

SAP is the suck. We've had it since november and i still don't know how to use it. Our old system's license just elapsed so now I have to ask for help.

Oh, we had training........ we had training WEEKS before we actually started using it.

I think that's where most mega-Enterprise rollouts go wrong. Training too early. The best training occurs on the job.

Lemme know when you're in ana crime. Disney I assume? We have passes and could meet you there. I know where every place to get a drink is located on and off the property.

Intrigued....

Not sure if your kids like to fish or not, but Depot Bay is a short drive south of Lincoln City. Any interest in a chartered trip for crabs, rockfish, lingcod, etc? I've done that three times and it's a lot of fun. Not overly expensive either. My kids love it. And if you like seafood (we do) you can catch some outstanding dinners on these trips. I'd be happy to meet up with you for something like this.

Also, there's a little bay near Lincoln City where you can fly kites and fish for crab off the beach. That's a hell of a good time. Dungeness Crab...
