Never put off ‘til tomorrow what you can put off indefinitely
so we decided to mount a reclining couch (with a seat belt out of a bus)
It’s always fun to play, but I’m glad you also made it safe!

the first thing he does when he gets in is spill my leftover can of soup i had sitting on the floor! Why can't someone invented a spill proof can of soup!?
I guess it’s my formal engineering training, but this didn’t seem very difficult to me.

That's not an anvil, that's an A.S.O.

Anvil Shaped Object.

Real anvils are forged tool steel. ASO's are cast iron things that look like anvils, generally used by people with eye patches from the chunks of metal flying off of them.

the grey-t escape
got it out on the road for the first time in a month, picked up a 2-peice china hutch, had to make 2 trips because the cap is on but it wasnt too far away (maybe 5-7 miles) . was nice to have it out, after getting everything home we were headed out to eat and got in the escape. Right as I went to start it my left foot went for a clutch pedal to press that isnt in that vehicle. Its been years since Ive done that.

In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are different.
Paid taxes/registration renewal for it.

If it's not broken Don't Fix It!
Fueled it up for the first time in a month and a half and drove it into the city for a wee bit of groceries but forgot to stop and grab beer on the way back. :(

I always buy the beer first. Then if I have any money left I buy groceries.
