I heard he is getting a job in Virginia paying 70K a year with automatic enrollment in full benefits. Sounds like a pretty sweet deal, you should look into it.

Why would shake want to screw up his standard of living like that?Going ahead with a phone interview for the job in MS tomorrow morning. Everyone I've talked to that lives in the South has strongly recommended I go for it. Including one that has followed a similar path from CA to WA to Louisiana and says it was the best move he's ever made. Besides, if shake and a couple others here are mocking it, it must be good!

Jesus sonnofabeotch goddam. 5 mintues to get intot this hellhole and then half of it isn't showing up. Go out try another browser, no help. Then I tried to post it tells me I wasn't logged in, wtf? Oh well, log-in and get error message. Try to log in again but they have a damn blue banner over the log-in that won't move. Christ, 20 minutes to get into the hellhole and so I am going to post something simply for principle. *sigh*Okay, let's see. Oh Speedy, is moving in with his g/f. Is she pregnant? I ask because my step daughter that moved in with the old guy is. Deb is thrilled! The daughter hasn't even met his previous three kids!Did I tell you guys about my tree? In my backyard garden project I starte last year, one of the trees died. After being jacked around for hours at the nursery who sold it to me I decided to go to another nursery. This was all much more frustrating than I am telling for sake of brevity but what was going to be a quick hour project turned into 5 hours just to get the damn tree. The problem was I so happy to actually find the perfect tree, I didn't pay much attention to how much it weighed. I got the first clue as the forklift dumped it into the back of my pickup and watched it sink.When I got home, I realized that I couldn't possibly lift it, so I rolled it to the end of the bed and pushed it off into a wheelbarrow and watched it smash that to the concrete. I tried a two-wheeler but it would budge it. This is where panic set in. I wasn't sure wehn Deb was going to get home, but I knew that as soon as she saw it she would get that look, the kind you know what she is thinking, "I married a fcuking idiot" look.So, I rolled it. Yep, but it was conical shape. So it went in circles, or well arcs and then I would have to striaghten it out and do roll it some more. Two hours later and near death I rolled it into up the hill into the hole only to realize I didn't dig it deep enough. It took more time to tunnel underneath by propping the tree up one side at a time. But I finally got it done within minutes of her arriving home. She doesn't have a clue and actually likes the tree! Even if she is married to an idiot!

[InternetExplorer]

it still looks like you didn't dig the hole deep enough.that might not be a big deal though. the big deal is making sure it's getting enough water. people tend to kill trees in the first year because they underestimate how much water it takes to get them established. depends on the kind of tree, of course.

Hey strat, you seem pretty knowledgeable on the subject; maybe you should consider a career in a nursery or something.Rando, I really have no idea how big your family is. Seems like you always got kids and step-kids dropping into your business. I don't know, maybe it's the same ones over and over.

that was cool.and randy, from the looks of that tree it's about time you added some weight training to your workout regimine.also, last I heard from the health company there was no way they could fit me in this week. this means that I get to give up another weekend to not eating or drinking or smoking. memorial day weekend. which I had just started planning a camping trip for. I'm so fucking pissed at these people I can't see straight.

That's probably just from the lack of eating.

and you guys remember me saying that I had to redo that health check tomorrow? well, just got a call this morning from the person that's supposed to do it and she's not available until next week. so that would mean yet another week of low cal zero carbs and not drinking. eff that. I've been on the phone with the company all morning trying to get it re-re-scheduled for this week screw those guys.

Just drink straight tequila. Not too many calories, not too much sugar, just the right amount of drunk.

Well, I disagree because I played pool all the time when at the frat and had a table.

yeah this isn't far off. I was pretty woozy while lifting this afternoon. running on about 400 calories at the time. health!

Oh, and the son he's very proud of and the son's wife who may be an idiot, but she's his son's idiot, so he loves her.

Oh, right. I feel like your body is going to be more attractive to the female species at the end of these three awful weeks. You should somehow find a way to take advantage of that. BEACH?

I'm just curious, what is the dollar amount of this 20% savings on your health care that you're killing yourself for? I just can't imagine it's enough to go through all this. Watch what you eat, get some excercise, sure, but for all you're going through I just feel like there's no way the cost/benefit works out.

[ShakeZuma]

yeah you'd think but for some reason my body doesn't want to let go of this last ten pounds right at my gut. I got top abs but a little pouch at the bottom that still hangs out a bit. I've stopped losing any weight, just keeping it off now, but that's probably because I'm in starvation mode. but I can't very well start eating again because I'd put back at least 5 which would be way too difficult to cut in a day or two.and I am going to the BEACH here in a few weeks. though at this point I think all I'll be doing is eating.edit: tilt, I'm not really sure, but at this point it's not even really about the money any more. I'll be god damned if after all this shit I've gone through I come in and this dipshit company tells me I'm overweight.

You're going to get through half a burger and be full. "No really guys, I couldn't possibly eat another bite. Maybe just a side salad. Also I'm a girl."You know, I'm never really sure where my post is going to end up when I start typing.

Yeah, I meant to include something about this being about the principle of the thing.

More likely he eats the whole burger, then feels sick and has to lie down. Like a girl.

I'm fishing at the moment. Just stopped using live bait because I was getting tired of catching all these little sunfish and it was getting in the way of my drinking and doing nothing.

Hurtful. Very amusing though, so I'll allow it.

How do you feel about black folks? There are a LOT of them in MS. Especially in Jackson. Not sure about the rich areas. I hear Oxford has TONS of hot southern belles. Otherwise, colored people everywhere. Not saying that's bad, just saying. I lived there during some college.. Then again, it was an all black school.

Aren't you like 155lbs? Unless you're a legal midget, how can you be classified as overweight? Text me some bull body nudesI'll be at the beach from June 7-11. Like, literally on the beach. Hotel is a service road across from the sand. We have an ocean view room at the Wyndham on Deerfield Beach. It's my 40th Bday. Feel free to send the room some champagne. The reservation/room may not be in my name. Figure it out.
