Shirt......



I saw this on a shirt and it just made me laugh..... I was watching a episode on Little house on the praire (don't laugh its pure TV). In the episode a young guy went to jail for a night ... I dont think he had to fear that as much. As a matter of fact neither did Otis the drunk on Mayberry RFD he didn't fear ass rape in jail. .... Any how I hope I made ya laugh.

Brains....



The styrofoam won't work forever......

School Daze...




My stuff came in the mail. By stuff I mean my class for thr motorcycle repair technician (or at least the first 2 lessons). Its kinda cool - first lesson is study techniques the second lesson is tool use and kinds of tools. Now I know my way under the hood of a car perty good , but I actually learned a thing or two today ( about motorcycle specific tools) . I studied at work in between customers so it was nice to do it a chapter at a time. I can do this all on line on pdf fprmat , but I like using an actual in hand book. So I can write my own notes in the margins. Somthing about it-- I guess thats why I just do not like reading the digital news paper on line or in my PDA. - God willing I'll be able to get through this class quickly and on to another one. I also need to do a lil more research on on line schools.
-- Spent some time with a biker chick at a bike shop today. She was a sales person and I was shopping. SHe noticed my work shirt and cut all the bull shit that some sales people do. SHe gave me the skinny on what I was looking for and how they care for their used bikes. I know that I will probally only have 1 month to ride before I have to put it away for the summer but I am looking forward to that one month. .... Night all.

Minty goodness....



Damn it .. Their going to change the name. While to some its not a big deal to me it is if only for the mints. I was upset when they changed the flavor of the old frango's now this... what comming soon Macy-mints... Fuckers. Funny, I just remembered -- the last woman I bought these mints for I think inhaled em not sure if she tasted them. They say that chocolate trigers a pseudo orgasm effect in a womans brain.The chemical is very similar. I guess thats why women and chocolate go so well together.

summers over......




Well Summers winding down , school is in full swing and the new TV shows have started. I have to say that I am kinda excited. I started a class and work is paying for it.It is a $700 course and my company reimbures people up to $2500 per calander year for full time and $1500 for part time. Its just a test of sorts if I can actually do a class and work at the same time. Mind you that I work from 10am to about 9pm most days during the week and most likely 9 am to 8 pm on a Sat. The class that I am taking is a small class it is Motorcycle repair technician course. Not that I want to open my own shop or even work at one its that I am buying a motorcycle and I want to do my own work on it. I can work on cars now (except the electrical) but I have not crossed in to the relm of the cycle. SOme days I wish I had a bigger garage. ANy ways the PIc above is what you will not see any more because Summer is over. Fall is here and because of the drought this summer many of the trees will not change color. They will simply drop leaves in green or brown. So sad. I will miss that this year.

Post Secret....



Click on the picture above. This has become my new favorite site on blogger. Lots of stuff going on in a few words, pain, suffering and lost love. There are other secrets out there but I am assuming that in the world these are emotions that live in the bulk of secrets.

Possible new tattoos....




These are loteria cards. There are kind of a bingo game used in Mexico. They are also used to teach numbers and words. I have been looking for inspirations for new tattoos for a few months now and I have thought of these but with a new modern look to them. Some of the cards are very old and would now work in todays culture ... ie .. El Negreto (the black person), etc. I would love to make El Cuthulhu or El Santo.... Who the hell knows....

blue...






It starts in the Middle of August with the anniversary of the death of my Uncle then comes in September with my own anniversary. ABout 11 years ago I was stricken very ill and almost died. I was in intensive care for 7 days and in the hospital for another 4 days. I woke up with a colostomy... Nice thing to wake up to when your 25. I had a girl friend at that time that "could not take it " so she just left me. And some when in that mess I had my birthday. It took almost the better part of a year before I was physicly normal. I still have the scars and see them every day. SO in my mind my birthday is usually never a fun thing .. I always just feel like Death is around the corner in the month of September. Like some how I cheeted him. Its a depression that I'm used to I always snap out of it after a night of binge drinking. I'm bigger than life and twice as ugly...... You can't get rid of me that easily.

Good Bye Little Buddy... Good bye.

stopping looters .......

Bad math



I went out for a beer with a friend on Friday. I havent seen her in awhile (close to a year). I ran late due to a car fire in the interstate. I arrived famished and thirsty for a cold beer after work. After a quick peck on the cheek food was ordered. Now let me tell you the place is known for its oysters and seafood. - I had huge shrimp and oh lets say four beers. The part where bad math comes in to play is that they were 22 oz beers. In my head I only had 4 beers. hmm lets solve for X . When X equals the munber of true beers had by me. 4 Blue moons*22oz = 88 oz /12 oz ("oz in a beer " ) = 7 beers. While not too bad it was in a short time and on a relitave empty stomach. - We talked mostly about our 20 year HS homecoming next year. - We had a brandy alexander afterwards. (thats basicly a milk shake w/ 2 shots of brandy in it .... awsome). Again a peck on the cheek and she was gone. I then called one friend and visited his cousin. We then went to the local tap and had 4 more beers. - drove home and passed out. ( I know I know I should not have driven ...... considering it was a 25 mile drive)
The next day I was wreaked I actually called in sick to work.... I NEVER call in sick. Today I went to work with about 2 hours sleep. I woke up and tried to get in to the shower to go to work , but decided to get back in to bed and try later. I finally got up at noon or so. Fed the animals and cleaned the basement. I finally took a shower at about 6 pm. .... It could have been the beers + dairy + oysters and shrimp that did me in. Or it could have been way too much in a short time. Like I said I was freeking starving when I arrived... So kids when drinking beers remember thats its the numbers of Ounces you drink not number of glasses.....

TUNE UP.......


OK - some of you may know that I do work with cars. With gas beign so hign let me give you a few pointers that may save you a few dollars at the pump.
#1 Keep your tires filled to proper PSI. If you want you may fill them up to another 5 psi. It will make that car a lil more bouncy , but will improve your milaeage just a bit. LOW air pressure will make your car work harder.
#2 replace your air filter. This will make your engine breathe better. Think about running with a scarf on. Kinda hard right? Same thing if you drive w/ a dirty filter. They cost $5-7 and will save you a bunch.
#3 Go buy a car/jar or fuel enjector cleaner. It will cost $2.99. dump it in and top off the tank. This will keep you fuel systen clean (if you buy cheep gas) and also help the car run better.
---------
The next few items you will need a mechanic if you are not handy under the hood.
---------
#4 Replace your spark plugs - dirty plugs will cost you fuel.
#4.1 replace your spark wires.
#4.2 check you O2 sensors.
---------
If you havent in awhile get your car tuned up -- this should run you between $80 - $150 for a basic tune job. While this not bring you loads of milage all this will keep you car running at the milage that your car was listed at when you bought it new or near new.
It does not take a whole lot to keep your vehicle running top notch. ANY work under the hood will pay for its self in the long run.

I can't really post anything positive.... The gas prices , the Huricane, the looting etc. etc - you've heard it before - Fucking human scum - now stealing food from the elderly and now rapes.. now fucking lovley .. Burn the town dow and start over......... I have to say I love my city Chicago. Sure it gets damn cold , Summers are damn hot. It has its bad areas buts its my city and I love her. I know that gas prices will drop in about a month .... (way after labor day ) to a reasonable $3.00/ gallon. Today I went and bought locking gas caps for my cars. The funny part is that many other people were thinging the same way . They were on short supply. I had to call 3 places to find any in stock. The third place has caps for both. ...... Sorry folks just venting. I know you are also not all too happy either. The nice part is that we are now in September ... and my birthdays in Sept (send gifts any time!!) . The weather will turn cooler and foot ball will be on TV on Sundays. I love fall. ... Maybe I'll get a tattoo next week.... Night all and If I don't say it enought to the ladies that read this -- Thank you for your kind words.
