Don't squeeze it down. These things have a habit of popping up when you least expect/want them to.

I have proven, scientifically, that this is not true.

Fingers crossed!

Ya there yet??

Sounds like a lovely day. The tigers are just amazing. This could be their year!

It is the year of the Tigers! In my life so far, I saw the 62 Tigers in a race with the damn Yankees, the 68 Tigers with World Series played in daylight, the Tigers in 84 with Sparky, and the Tigers during Jim Leyland era. I have been blessed and thank my grandpa for turning me into a baseball fan.

Why do grown-ass adults need to be treated like toddlers???

I have been asking myself that question since I was a teen!

 

[B2fromA2looking4U]

gnight people. My back is causing bad hip pain the last few nights…

I have had some low back pain that was not responding to PT. My doctor thinks it may be the result of kidneys. You might want to check out all medical reasons.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Good morning Wat. I had my annual physical yesterday. More testing to determine cause of lower back pain on the right side of my back. I am stopping PT until we know more.

Getting older is not fun. Alone it’s even worse. Sorry that I am feeling sorry for myself. That’s not me.

My lower back pain on the right side, when I had it 10 year ago, was arthritis in my right hip. One new joint later and all is well.

Good morning diners. Wow a great sleep, as nothing other than great sex.

I have been going through emotional swings as I come up on the third anniversary of my wife’s passing. I am making it thanks to all of you, my GF and my children and friends. Thank you!

 

[Wat_Tyler]

I see you're doing well today. Let's keep it at 0

Hmmm, maybe . . . .


I did have a plumbing issue to deal with after hours. I think we found some resolution.

 

[subdudeme13]

It's basically the core constant!

So it has been defined?

Why do grown-ass adults need to be treated like toddlers???

Kick ass and take names, W!

Well I sort of have to do it politely in this case. It’s the company chief underwriting officer and our uS operations CUO. They thought they had an agreement. It’s very political: control, fear of loss of control, who’s more important and who is subservient.

Total horseshit.

But it’s time for an alignment meeting. Sadly the company culture is all nicely nicely and sometimes ya gotta break a few eggs to make an omelette.

It’s the weekend now, so so I don’t give a mother fuckin goddam!

 

[Wat_Tyler]

My parents were the youngest of both sides of their respective families. I’ve inherited more guns, tools and rod&reels than I have space for, from assorted uncles, my grandfather and father!

The struggle is real!

My tools amaze me. The firearms are a close second.


Fishing isn't on the radar.


Yet . . . .

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Or better yet, a Packard! (They're kinda tanks anyway, right?)

Surprisingly, mine weigh less than a body might think on first blush.

You can lean on us!

Sorry it’s so painful. Use your network. Be aware of your feelings and treat yourself well (and with grace).

My wife still gets this around the anniversary timeframe of her husbands passing too.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Yeah… I got stuck early on when i first bought it… I mean that son of a bitch was really mired in the mud. But I was able to actually use the front end loader and wedge a bunch of larger sticks (small logs) under the one wheel that spun well and that caused enough gription to get me out of there.

Look at our baby using scientific terminology an' shit!!!!

 

[Wat_Tyler]

I feel like positraction was talked about in my cousin vinny

The GM folks call it that.


Mopar maniacs call it "Sure Grip."

gription

My dad made that up, to the best of my knowledge.

 

[subdudeme13]

I got a kick out of this.

I had a great uncle that was married to my grandfather’s youngest sister. He had this old brown Dodge wagon who’s ass end was loaded to the gills with rods and reels! . I swear it looked just like this! I don’t know how he knew what he had in there, and there was no way in hell he was using all of it!

Then I look in my garage…

I have a few I can add to that.

What fun would that be?

 

[Wat_Tyler]

One of the reasons why I use the word!!

Nooooo. The defense is wroooooooaaaNG.

These mahks weh made by a 1963 Pontiac tempest.

I was never so certain about the Pontiac IRS,


and her collar is too high . . . .

Good... he was eating an oatmeal cookie when I went back. And then stopped at waffle house for breakfast...hahaha

I'm overdue a Waffle House All-Star . . . .

Kick ass and take names, W!

The Wat Way:



Kick ass(es)



Fuck the names . . . .

 

[subdudeme13]

PEACE!

My dad made that up, to the best of my knowledge.

A friend (RIP) told me of a customer who came into the hardware store looking for ice melter so he could get some gription on his tires.


Maybe that guy knew your dad . . . .

My Silverado has a Detroit Locker.

Wow! Thats awesome.

Maybe my dad was stretching the truth.

But I will never forget him saying in his Jersey accent, “Al, these tires ain’t got no gription.”
