Shoot the Breeze With the Cooler Crew - Peoplesforum Edition
Terry, if it were mine, I would do an on-going mural of what the van saw on my excursions...but I would have to hire an artist....Dan thought just painting it camo would be cool, but in this day and age, might get you pulled over. I think the painting of the "van-mobile" is a very personal deal, and will come to you as the inspiration reveals itself. Don't be in a hurry. You saw the outside of my pinchy van, and I still have no clue as to what to make the outside be. A mural of treasure boxes, and winter, and fires, and shovels, and marshmallows might be a start...>:)
Geeze, Ares, there are lots of things you don't want shared from that bonfire.:) Was it the haunting?
Filling the pot with Espresso Roast...
Stocking cold beverages...
asst. fresh, warm muffins with butter, creme cheese, and various jams on the side...
Much Cooler Love around the world!
TV, here's a website that could inspire you guys when it comes to painting the van.
http://www.artcars.com
um, yeah kt. that's it. the haunting. yeah.
mornin' sam.
Morning all!
"Stop sign ahead" very good thinking Ares.Maybe I will have to do some investigating and have a talk with the old friendly hearing officer.(no pic forsure)hehe
Terry tell inks nice VANNETTE I know of a couple of folks that could paint it for him.(maybe me)
LL-e-mail has been sent.
This is a example of my painting.(this is not one of mine just like it)
Can you really do stuff like that Marley? A friend of mine and I have been discussing my Scout, and a suitable wild paint job for it.
Yes sir frosti. I was in mexico a few years back and seen these guys doing funky space art like that with spray cans. I said "I can do that".Two years of practice and they were finally starting to turn out cool(its hard with spray cans air brush is easy).It has been about ten years now so there looking good now, although I havent painted one in a year now.Now that I am talking about it think maybe I will be painting after work tonight.
Later,
 cause Im late for that work thingy
Sweet. My truck's kind of a rustbucket, but a really boss paint job would distract from that. :)
Marley? Did you see that comic in the Pioneer (I think yesterday)?
Guy gets pulled over and as the policeman comes to the car window the guy throws a doughnut out hoping the policeman will run for it...policeman says it won't work and gives him a ticket.
Thought of it when I read about your stopsign trouble :(
Me2, you need to check the link at the top of the PPWC Refugees folder. You need to have Lance fix your problem with being Moderated.
she already sent the email, thx.
Good Evening!
Marley - I'll show him that stuff. I'm not sure he's quite ready for that...but it sure is way cooler! He's into eagles and lighthouses though. Can you do those?
I think nicely suggesting they put some stop ahead signage before that stopsign, might just help emphasize that it's not very visible and perhaps will at least get you a reduced fine.
hey, that bathroom looks vaguely familiar, terry! lol.
I thought it might. :-)
Thanks for the XP tip. Little by little I'll get used to that crazy operating system.
i've gotten used to its nuances. and its actually been rock-solid for me since i figured out that i have power quality problems and the ups i have that's supposed to be scrubbing the power for me has gone to the birds.
I navigated back to my Windows 98 machine tonight. Dr. Dave fixed up my old compaq so I'm doing some file grabbing from this one to load into the compaq. I will finally have internet again when we're north.
No more shakes for me during the weekend internet droughts! LOL!!
That icon of yours is too much! LOL
When you find something like that...you just gotta, right?
ya know, i really do need to get a laptop. then i could take the computer out of the bathroom! lol.
Ares - that would be a good use of time while bathrooming.
I remember when US West used to try to sell you extra phone lines. (I'm probably dating myself here as this didn't seem so long after party lines gave way to private lines.) They would talk about phones in the bedroom, living room, laundry room and I remember the one time the woman mentioned the bathroom and I just about fell on the floor!
Now having internet access in the bathroom for true addicts isn't so far-fetched.
well i've already got a wireless network in place for the purpose of serving my dsl connection to the neighbors on either side, so a lappy with a wireless network card would drop right in on my network :)
now, chatting on the phone in the bathroom, with all the, um, appetizing sound effects, that's just something i won't do!
Bud - what just is the major reach for you?!?!
what is? chatting on the phone while doing a number 2? speaking of that, i walked into the can at work this morning to the sound of someone making dinner reservations or something while taking care of other business. is that really necessary?
well, i'm heading to bed. i've got myself a nice stress-filled day planned for tomorrow.
so, nite all. mcl and scd's.
Goodnight Ares.
I'm heading out too. Long meeting for the morning and other fun work activities for the afternoon. I hate falling asleep at meetings. It's so unprofessional. :-)
Goodnight, SCDs and MCL to coolerheads everywhere!
now, see, i just don't go to meetings i know i'll fall asleep in :)
Hello and Goodnight!
SUp yall. Back in the haugh once again. Yeah, so bout Crosby. I dunno. I've been hearing since i was a lil kid bout how that place is all haunted cause of some maniac killer ninja hackin up a buncha people down there back a long ass time ago. Its prolly just some story handed down from someone. But im believin it. That place, after dark, makes me wanna pee my sheets yall....and thats alot too, especially considering im a wicked clown and all. Heh.. Im out. I needa recover after a night of drinkin.
filling the pot with Kona blend...
stocking cold beverages...
creme-cheese frosted pumpkin bars...
MCL around the world!
Marley!!!! I saved that picture!!! That just might be it! I'll have to show it to Inks later.
Good Morning Crew! Only one more wakeup til Finally Friday!!! Now just to get through this long meeting this morning and a training this afternoon. Tomorrow should be a breeze.
Better keep on keeping on. See yaz all later!
Morning Sams
Mornin'. Yippee! Hubby FINALLY went to work today. He's been laid off since Nov. Talk about a long winter. I had to pry the remote out of his hand. I hope he remembers how to use his work tools. This AM I noticed "worm- bumps" all over my yard, except the north side,so I'm calling it a spring day.
Mornin' Ralph
Does anyone know of a weather website where you can enter in a "road trip" itinerary, and get the forecasts?
yay, kt! what does he do?
mornin' ralph.
and i've never heard of such a site. of course i'm also not the sort of person to go looking either. its a lot more convenient to just give northwest some money and get on a plane with a big red tail. lol.
Ares, hubby is a foreman for a concrete company. Only this year got the title "Project Manager" (I think that means foreman) I agree about the flying thing. A friend of mine is road- tripping out to Seattle on Sunday, and I told her I'd give her forecasts along the way. I like to get to places asap, and chill, but Clark W. Griswald DID say, "getting there is half the fun, you know that"
sounds like the definition of a foreman to me. my brother's an office furniture installer and he's been laid off since the end of february. but he's kinda cool with that; the company he primarily works for got the job doing the best buy campus come november, and it's given him the opportunity to get his upstairs remodeled (coincidentally with enough lights that he could land a 747 in zero visibility :)
as for driving, if its gonna take longer than 5 or 6 hours, i'm getting on a plane. which is, of course, why i'd absolutely love to get a pilot's license. then i could say if the plane rental process is longer than the drive i can drive.

It's travelocity.com and you can check any city. You MAYneed to register, but it's free.
I don't think Dan would mind if he was laid off for 2 months, but 5+ gets to a guy. ...One of the reasons we're moving west. Well, I'm off to make pizzas for the masses! Later. Have a way cooler day!
Is it just me or has access here been horrible today?
Horrible. But we're on the cusp of a new era, sez Lance. New server is on a UPS truck somewhere in the continental USA, en route to Lance.
If the driver can make it past the peacock, things should improve.
Wasn't it on a truck sometime last week?
The peacock must have got him.
:-)
If the peacock didn't, it might have been the horse or the gecko.
Good Evening!
I thought I heard the weatherman say it would be sunny this afternoon. Someone was wrong. At least this is Spring weather and it's not snowing.
Better keep on keeping on here. Busy night ahead.
