Shopping again....tsk, tsk.....
If they're local and you need someone to go stand on their desk, let me know...
LOL, most of the time the Mrs. would PAY someone to ship me off to parts unknown...
LOL!
You're evil.
We bust on each other.
And crack horrid jokes.
Must be due to the local geography in our area, we've all gone cracked and have to find humor in other things.
Yep.
I've been out car shopping and drinking blue thingies. I was test driving the car, stopped by a friend/coworker's house, and decided to go back and have blue thingies. Just got home. Can't get an insurance quote until Monday, but if I can afford the insurance, I think I found a car. It wasn't what I was looking for, but the more I drove it, the more it grew on me. My friend said it was a heck of a deal and that there was no way I could lose money on it and I should buy it. I didn't need too much convincing at that point. Besides, Tyler will be impressed.
You can come babysit my birds while I'm gone.
OK .. I asked Mike about it and he said there are a few tracks in AK that you could go to ..
I check around and googled up these places/sites that could give you an idea
If you go to any dirt/clay tracks ... I suggest that you 1) never sit in the front and 2) wear goggles .. because the dirt/clay/dust can fly up and hit you .. especially if the track is wet
