I get annoyed by the person in front of the line at the party store who buys 10 lottery tickets with out filling out slips while 18 people are in line behind them.

I'd say it beats most of the alternatives....

What's that saying? "I plan on living long enough to become an embarrassment to my grandchildren."

Well i'm kind of skiddish regarding lifespan right now-- working my way close to 70-- have a new motorsailer build in the works about 30% complete and you know the all to often outcome of that combo-- Oh what a drag man he had her just about completed and da da da da da . Had it happen to two friends and every second week the same story is relayed to me about so and so. Yup life is like an old tire never know when it's going to blow out and yes flat tires bug me also " Live long my friend and prosper"

My great-uncle Will made it to 98 -- and he worked for the local paper until he passed away. By those standards, you still have 28 years to finish that boat, so start sanding...

Really looking forward to it --believe that and pigs really do fly. ahh but we'll get her done lad and she'll be a fine ship---Geo.

people always putting treats in front of the dog when I got him working. New rule, I based this off the golden rule so maybe some of you will like it.

"If your willing to take a bite out of whatever that is, then of course,".


should be a rule
if you see a pup working beautifully for someone, don't start waving treats around.

My new rule is the same as my old rule, Don't feed or pet my dog without asking first--otherwise I might bite you. I agree on the rude traning interruptions especially those beautiful bosomed girls walking right up and leaning over to pet Rover .
Boston hows the build coming along ?--Geo.

I think it's annoying when people make rules about how they should handle the dog, when clearly it's the dog who's in charge of the person making the rules . . .

The sooner we understand that we're born terminally ill, the quicker we can appreciate the time we have -- and the sooner we can understand those who want to corrupt our lives with spiritual alternatives that make our heads hurt.
