Monday Thoughts

• Why do people that loose weight become douche bags? I just saw this weight watchers commercial and I was like... man.
• The one time a tornado hits right down the street and I am on the other side of the state!
• We usually take vacation in Port Aransas but this year the service at every restraunt has REALLY sucked.
• We spent half the day at St. Jo's island where I only managed to metal detect an old Sprite can.
• I think a Drive-In movie theater would work great down there.
• I drove around Corpus and discovered a lot I didn't know existed.

Monday Thoughts

• I got all the weedeating and puch mowing on the yeard done this weekend! Woo hoo! All I have left is the riding lawnmower part.
• I went Hangman's this weekend to get some video of the constuction and decorating of the house. We also talked to the owner about the upcoming documentary we are going to do with her.
• She talked me into doing some work for the A Wish With Wings charity.
• I'm a sucker for charity work.
• This coming weekend I will be setting up at the Dallas Comicon! I am looknig to do some big time selling this time around.

This is my 'barn' of junk.

Thursday Thoughts

• I finished my lean-to (see below).
• The 2nd picture below is my bit of advertising that is on the roof of the lean-to.
• The roof is made of pressboard that I heavily painted so I don't know how long it will last. I might have to put some metal on there before too long.
• It probably needs to stay uncovered until Winter so Google can take a new image of it.
• School has started and how quickly I have become disinterested!

 The finished product.

The roof before I put it up.



Tuesday Thoughts

• Monday we shot some footage for the Decatur High School 'Every 15 Minutes' program. (pic below).
• I have my new lean-to for the lawnmowers. I put a little bit of advertising on the roof... more to come...
• Spent Sunday with mom mowing and going out to eat for Mother's Day.
• When did STOP signs start meaning: 'slow down a little'?
• I want to make an iPhone app. I sure I'd make millions.
• The CVS going up here in Decatur is beng built on a big man-made hill. I wonder why they felt they needed to make that hill.
• I have started class this week for some sort of healthcare certification.

Friday Thoughts

• Tiny truck bed + 12' timber = pain in the rear.
• I am building a lean-to for my riding lawnmower and such. Man, that can get expensive!
• I am filming the Decatur Fire Dept today for a drunk driving video for Decatur HS.
• I found the Back to the Future Delorean at Walmart (Hot Wheels version)... that's awesome!
• Chris came over and we played NetRunner and Word Yahtzee (an 80's variant of the dice game). It was really fun and simple.
• This weekend is going to be busy with mowing / mother's day stuff / and keeping wife happy.

Wednesday Thoughts

• Today is Star Wars Day. Happy Star Wars Day!
• There are 2 phrases/words that I have picked up from programmers over they years I have worked in IT... one is 'fat fingering' (that's where you mistype a password) and the other is calling the '*' character a splat (not an asterisk).
• I got some furniture that was handed down to me in place yesterday and turned a china cabinet into a nifty book case. It looks great!
• I have signed up for the HITECH Program at Midland University in the Government mandated 'Hospital Meaningful Use' training. It's a bunch of new Governemnt regs in the electronic transfer of patient data across the US. And no, this was pre-Obama.The refund I will get for the education is Obama however.
• I have one point about the whole: Obama gives the order to kill (rathern than capture) Osama. Where are all the demonstators? If this had happened under Bush's term there would be people screaming for him to be tried for murder (or in the least authorizing it). Where is the UN's war crimes tribunal? The man admitted he ordered the death of Osama...

I saw this Titan Toys in Ridgmar Mall this last weekend. That store is super crappy. It's like something from Trader's Village.

Tuesday Thoughts

• I watched Pufnstuf (the 1970 movie) on YouTube... what a trip.
• Yesterday's weather was miserable. I am hoping for a warm up today.
• I posted a blog on my other daily blog that was very similar to this blog (just as a change from the 500 word ones we do). Check it out.
• There is something wrong with our service ticketing system at work. I have 90+ emails (and growing every 20 seconds) that are blank.
• Old Navy is made for skinny people. I hate going in there.

Check this book out I saw the the Fort Worth library... man o man!

Rainy Day Monday Thoughts

• I find it funny how the pacifist is practically solely responsible for the death of Osama.
• Didn't he badmouth and badmouth all military operations during the elections?
• Went to the Galaxy Drive in this weekend with family. I wish there was one somewhere near here in Decatur...
• Fast Five was the first movie... man is that movie full of crap! It's so full of plot contrivances its not even funny.
• The movie is indicative of almost every Hollywood movie out there nowadays... plans and events happen so perfectly and with such precision that it is is completely unbelievable.
• Saw someone throw trash out of their car at a stop light on Hulen this weekend. I CANNOT stand that. It lets me know that that person has respect for NOTHING.
• Is it just me or is the movie UP utterly depressing?
