pros of dating a woman 10 years older:

maturity

i find it weird how many people date crazies and comlete ********. even though none of my relationships have led to "i do" they were all decent people. nobody ever tried to rip me off, cheat on me or anything else lik that.

i guess if you're scraping the bottom of the barrel you should go find a new barrel.

Guh! 2 years? I replace mine every few months or so....


don't "guh" me! whatever guh means:wink:.

some bathroom stuff needs to be done frequently, like the yearly toilet cleaning. ha. i used a friend's bathroom saturday and it appears he sees the toilet as a general suggestion of where to aim and the floor and wall (anything that stops the stream i guess) are equally acceptable targets.

it is a seat belt law not a shoulder strap law

just a thought

but hey

what do i know


around here they'll get you for not wearing the shoulder part. basically you have to wear whatever the car came with (at least. upgrading from a 3-point system to a 4-point race harness is fine) unless you have a doctor's note or are performing certain jobs like mailman where the belt would impede get in the way of performing the duty.

any time. although to spend NO money on a shower curtain....hose off outside and water the grass at the same time

rofl rofl rofl rofl rofl


laugh i sort of did that yesterday. after weedeating my arms and face were completely covered in grass and dirt and i didn't want to drop that all over the house.

You can use duct tape to repair the eyelets. Get you another year out of it. smokin


laugh yeah. i think i'd be more likely to use some brass tarp/tent grommets (i just happen to have a pack sitting around) but that might be overkill and would make the curtain look too "bling".

could be an oil cooler line. not all cars have them but if they do it's often the botton section of the radiator. i prefer auxiliarly stacked-plate coolers. more efficient.

if you're going to put it in a shop instead doing the work yourself you should have them run compression and leakdown tests on the cylinders. even a short period of low oil pressure can lead to scored or warped cylinders and pistons, warped heads, damaged cam lobes, stuck lifters and plenty of other issues.




it was the radiator that went... $300 frustrated


damn shops are a ripoff. last time i replaced one of mine it cost me $65 for the part, then it took me about 10 minutes to do the work and 20 minutes to fully burp the system.

at least you're back in action though.

after only 2 years of use my shower curtain is starting to wear out (eyelets tearing) even though i use my other shower about half the time. i sort of feel like i wasted $2.44. but i won't speak ill of the dead...

R.I.P. shower curtain 2007-2009. splash-guard, nakedness concealer, patriot. sad2

what not to say: it could be worse, you'll get through this, i'm there for you, or any other lame-*** cliche. i've known many people who've been depressed an i've been there myself. the best solution is just treat them normally and allow them to get some things off their chest in normal converstion. don't press for it and also don't allow them to spend tons of time bitching and moaning about it. there's a difference between being supportive and encouraging them to wallow in the sorrow.

unfortunately i've been the reason for the call a few times. that's never fun.

the most recent time i called was because i was at an intersection and saw a guy pass out so i hopped out to help. a pedestrian in this city is weird enough (too huge to get anywhere without driving) but one wearing a black hooded sweatshirt with the hood up in 103 degree heat is really bizarre.

Enzyte helped me not to sleep on my bellyfrustrated


laugh

it really sucks to have a great dream then roll over on it. that thing was never intended to be a load-bearing structure and it's one hell of a startling wakeup.

no pills though...i don't want to end up like that creepy "smiling bob" on the commercial. he reminds me of everyone that got sprayed with joker gas on batman. i don't think joker gas affects that "certain part" (why can't they just say penis?) but it would have made the movie much stranger.

i don't save all that much money by using them because i very rarely turn lights on even at night. but they do seem to last longer, as promised.

right now my monitor is the only light source in the house and a stupid little bug keeps flying at it. ok, he's not doing it anymore but i need to wipe off my monitor.

those stupidass forms always ask if i'm hispanic/latino as its own separate question, then that's also one of the 10 or however many choices in the second question. redundant.

i knew a guy in HS that got an african-american scholarship to college, then they revoked it when they found out he was a blond white guy. he got a lawyer and they had to give it back because he was born in south africa. he was more african-american than 99% of the black people in this country.
