Enjoy this time with yours, put a brick on their head at night to slow them down so they don't grow uo to fast.

She accepted an oscar or something years back and said "You like me, you really like me!!!!!!!!!!!" People made fun of her and she's taken guff for years.

The first time I didn't feel it, but this time I feel it, and I can't deny the fact that you like me, right now, you like me!" (1985)

She did a good job in that movie. You almost forget its Sally Field...which is a sign of a good actor/actress when they call draw you into the character that much.
I suppose that was supposed to be an uplifting movie, but at the end I couldn't help but think, "they won, but she's still out of a job."

Great thread, guys.
Some (hopefully unecessary) advice: treasure every moment. I lost one of mine a couple of years ago, and I thank God every day for every second we had him.
Don't let the everyday crap steal a minute from those relationships!
Hey, Burt,
I'm sorry to hear about your loss.
Your words of wisdom will be taken to heart.

you had a challenging day
terrible is your wife serves notice, your partner leaves with all the dough, you turn the water on at the house you got people moving in to the next day and the plumber installed a sprinkler system you didn't ask for, in a ceiling no less
you get home to kiss the kids and go back to work
and got no where to go when you get done
and it is christmas eve
that is a bad day
but look where i landed
now you want me to send you those crown mold jigs or what
i'm still laughing.
some days compadre.
i'm going to get chinese- you want an egg roll
better day tomorrow pal o mine
U want I should glue or duct tape all the scraps together to make for one 12 ft stick and recreate the crime? bungie the whole mess to the side of the Jeep?

I didn't know what picture you were talking about because I'm using Mozilla and that picture of Joey you posted doesn't show up, there's nothing at all. Now I'm on Microsoft Outlook and I see the picture full screen right in your post. I don't get why it doesn't show up in Moziila.
I just scrolled through this whole thread and I can see Jeff Buck, JoeH, David Doud and Boss Hog's pictures right in there posts on Microsoft Outlook but with Mozilla I have to click on the attachments to see them. Your post there's no attachment at all to even click to see a picture but with Microsoft the picture is right there. I don't get it.

It's funny, until we had our first child last year, I really had no interest in other peoples kids, pictures etc. Now that I have my own, it has opened up a whole new world for me. These are all great pictures, thanks for sharing.
Here is my son Jackson with his birthday cake at his first birthday party last month. The second picture is him relaxing after the party thanks to my BIL. And for those who are concerned, of course the beer can was empty before my BIL gave it to him.

Thank you Joe.....YEh, thats my daught Jolie in front of the whaling blubber pot in front of our house....See the ropes on the pot?
We had to tie it to the bucket of the dozer to lift it and praying it wouldnt crack in half cause it was already cracked..We needed to move it from the front of the house to do the grading which still ain't done (what else is new)...My guess is that its almost as old as me....maybe..uhhhh 326 yrs old ish give or take a decade or two.
Thanks bro.

I immediately wondered about the cast iron. That is a really amazing pot. My gran has a "soap making pot" that is about 5 feet in diameter that is a little like that. I collect griswold cast iron, so that kind of thing really interests me.
Where did you get that?
Let the beauty of what you love be what you do. ~ Rumi
Where did you get that?>>>>>It came with the house....Its original. Cold Spring Harbor (google the town if ya want....some pretty interesting stuff here) was a whaling town back when and I'm guessing that pot is really old....like hundreds of years old...The whaling musuem up the road wanted me to donate it to them....I told them to pizz off....lol...It belongs with this house....and looks cool here.
