  1. Met up with a couple other Volvo people today at Ikea and of course we had to pop someones hood. Little after we did, a lady pulled into the parking spot next to the car and as she gets out asks us what wrong with the car and do we need a jump or anything. We responded, "No thanks, just looking at the engine bay." :lol: :lol: :lol:

  2. A congressman was seated in first class next to a little girl on an airplane. He turned to her and said, "Do you want to talk? Flights go quicker if you strike up a conversation with your fellow passenger."

    The little girl, who had just started to read her book, replied to the total stranger, "What would you want to talk about?"

    "Oh, I don't know," said the congressman. "How about global warming, universal health care or stimulus packages?" as he smiled smugly.

    "OK," she said. "Those could be interesting topics but let me ask you a question first. A horse, a cow and a deer all eat the same stuff - grass. Yet a deer excretes little pellets, while a cow turns out a flat patty but a horse produces clumps. Why do you suppose that is?"

    The legislator, visibly surprised by the little girl's intelligence, thinks about it and says, "Hmmm, I have no idea."

    To which the little girl replies, "Do you really feel qualified to discuss global warming, universal health care or the economy when you don't know crap?"

    Then she went back to reading her book.

  3. Tethys arrived last week but I need to give them a refinishing...not sure as to what the new color will be....

    yeah no kidding.

    good stuff Tom,

    i laughed at your pics of your bridge and wall. lol

    best of luck out there.

    Thanks Mike, hope things are going as usual back in Pittsburgh. Had to take some pics!

    here is my GF's pic from colorado this summer LOL: small world haha...

    Haha, small world indeed!

    Even better would have been if your gf's pic showed Tom's slow ass in the background putzing along in the slow lane...lol

    Just because I was in the right lane doesnt mean I was going slow. :ph34r: Just meant I was moving over for the Lee's and Art's of the world. :lol:

  4. Couple more pics. Took them at the end of the work day.

    My parking spot...in the middle of the dirt with a whole bunch of rocks. :glare: Really need to work on getting some tint for the car.

  5. yeah it's call center. i know i'm not going to love it, but having sent out about 40 resumés within the past week alone, this was the only response. it's money, and i will stick with this until i find something better. ultimately i'm looking for something administration related in the medical field. drug rehab is what i'm aiming for but anything in allied health.

    a job is a job no matter how shitty it may be :lol:

    Congrats man. It pays the bills, gives you some spending money, and allows you to look around.

    Idk why but this made me laugh a lot.
