a shallow well, or run a 220V line with a breaker for a pump (for a sprinkler system)? Well, I’m interested in your services and I’ll pay you at a Mexicans wage (expecting you to bust your ass).  I’m also looking to re-sod all my property, so if you want to come out with a sod cutter and haul the old stuff away, I’m down.  This is the biggest project I think I have ever tried to plan, I even have a Microsoft Project setup to review my progress and make sure I don’t get behind in my time-line.  I have milestones, and other business terms included, (all with a budget of course).  So let’s have a sod laying party and I’ll bring the corona and you can all work like dirty burnt Mexicans!

Do you know how to install

sometimes.  Some online forums are great and super informative, but as a knowledgeable Dave Matthews Band fan all DMB forums require like a certain number of posts for this or that, and it’s just retarded.  I put in my two cents when I know it’s gonna count.  Most forums are the same way, and people think they are God when you have seventy-six thousand posts and you have like 30 (that doesn’t mean shit when you have a low number of posts!).  I know half of those posts from other people are pointless, they probably replied to a fucking post with a cheese  or something really gay like tongue wink I’m fucking tired of all these forums with no one saying anything valuable.  If you’re a member of a forum then I expect you to say something worth reading or say something informative!  If you’re gonna set up a forum, don’t!

Forums are fucking annoying

my to do list is shorter, however now that I’m engaged, I’m required (by law of repsonsibility) to work on some things for Mandy’s place (some painting and other minor repairs).  Now, I don’t mind this, however I perfer to ‘better’ my place, but I know how much shit continually needs to be done.  Aside from that, I’ve recently needed some work to be done on the Jeep, my rear transmission seal is leaking and my wheel cylinder is leaking.  One truly feels like they’re getting robbed no matter what.  Like going up to the mechanic and offering him an outrageous price for doing a simple oil change.  How about seven thousand dollars for the oil change?!

Things are looking much better

because I think of some really messed up situations, and then I start to plan how I’m gonna be the hero and get out of them.  I expect that if a situation that I imagine ever occurs, I’d probably find a heroic way to save the day.  Here’s a situation that I thought about recently; One Friday I was driving home from work, and as I was getting close to my neighborhood I saw a huge stack of smoke (like a house was catching fire).  The fire seemed to be coming from ‘my neighborhood’, so as anyone would I thought the worst, my house is on fire and my neighbors called the fire department.  I’m thinking that Hannah Banana is still inside and the fire department couldn’t get her out, so I thought, “fuck it I’m going in, I’m gonna drive my car through the back porch run in, and jump out through the broken glass carrying all 87lbs of Hannah in my arms!” I wouldn’t care about anything like my house or car.  Then after I got Hannah out, people would say I’d be the quick thinking hero for saving his ‘best friend’.  Regardless of all that, arriving into my neighborhood I quickly realized the fire was much farther away (over in Avalon, a shame it wasn’t Celly’s place), and no heroic actions were needed.  I told you my imagination is just out there, but I’d still try to be the hero…

exciting, and annoying.  I’ve had two full days of meetings, and in all that I got word that Dane Cook will be in Chicago for a show April 13th.  I let the crew know, and so far Joe Crack and I are signed up ready to fly with tickets in hand.  We’re both really pumped!  We’re just going for the show returning the next day.  Our seats are really close and it’s just gonna be awesome!  I have one more ticket to sell at $115, if anyone is interested.

This week has been crazy

Author: Zeus | Filed under: Comedy, Friends & Family, Vacation & Travel

Planning has started, brainstorming for location ideas has started and we’ve narrowed it down to two cities. We’ve also started interviewing wedding coordinators/planners. Our last interview is this coming weekend in Jacksonville (while I go fishing, but I’ll be back in time don’t you worry). We hope to have a date nailed down by the end of this month. We’ve been told that we’re way ahead of planning schedule and we haven’t done anything yet, I’ll look forward till the day comes and we get to party with some truly special people in our lives. I’m hoping this website’s orange theme is correct and the bright colors theme (done classy) flows into the wedding motif.
