This year they were cranked out in less than 30 minutes. Kind of rushed i know, but I'll be damned if I don't have Jack-O-Lanterns out and my porch light on on Oct. 31 Eve! Even if it is just for the 7 or 8 rings-o-the-bell;-)~

I love coming home! Some see their house as just a box that they return to each night, I see mine as the treasure chest that holds all that is dear to me;-)~

Getting Older....Myth or reality?


We have all always thought...."I'll never grow up!" Now I am already looking back over my short 40 years and saying, "I can't believe all the things I've accomplished, how much memory-filled road I left behind, and how much uncharted road I have in front of me." It is hard to believe that my oldest son is almost taller than me, my youngest son is almost stronger than me, and my only daughter is about to become smarter than me (academically that is, there will never be a substitute for plain ol' experience.) Well, I guess someday I'll grow up, but DAMN, I don't want it to be now! ;-)~

It's pronounced I..gor!

Well, another anniversary of sorts is today, Dec. 7. Yes, it is Pearl Harbor day, but it has also been 18 years since I started working for a mad scientist at NIST. Not quite a day that will live in infamy... but it is a day;-)~

22 years!

22 years ago today, the greatest treasure fell into my lap... well, actually she jumped into my arms! She makes me so happy that I think I actually stopped aging at that point (although my hairline would tell you differently);-)~

So these flowers are for you Babe, I LOVE YOU!

Life

From a strictly mathematical viewpoint it goes like this:What Makes 100%? What does it mean to give MORE than 100%? Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%? We have all been to those meetings where someone wants you to give over 100%. How about achieving 103%? What makes up 100% in life?Here's a little mathematical formula that might help you answer these questions:

If:A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
is represented as:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26.

Then:H-A-R-D-W-O-R-K
8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = 98%

and K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E
11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = 96%

But, A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E
1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%

And, B-U-L-L-S-H-I-T
2+21+12+12+19+8+9+20 = 103%

AND, look how far ass kissing will take you.
A-S-S-K-I-S-S-I-N-G
1+19+19+11+9+19+19+9+14+7 = 118%

So, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that While Hard work and Knowledge will get you close, and Attitude will get you there, it's the Bullshit and Ass kissing that will put you over the top;-)~

This one kills me

I came close to resurecting my collection...but had enough self control not to;-)~
