Next thing you'll say is that Swayze was awesome in Black Dog
Actually, Swayze was excellent in Road House, especially when he ripped out the other guy's throat.

Roadhouse was his claim to fame.... but Black Dog was terrible.

Yup, one of my favorite movies. The doctor is his wife in real life.

Yup, your right, that wasn't his wife. I was told that a long time ago by someone who is like a movie trivia nut.

I just drove down to my truck in my PJ's to look at my license plate. I no longer know what's fact or fantasy.

Got my windshields replaced yesterday and it was a real bitch for them. They pretty much broke and folded the old ones in half getting them out. They ended up having to take the roof top visor off to get the new ones in because they weren't able to get the tool into the rubber gasket with the visor in the way. Now I'm going to have to head back down to El Paso to get my top and bottom tinted again!!

I noticed my extra cash has been going down and down and realized I'm spending too much time at home after every trip. Seems like there is always something that needs to be done when I get home and end up having to wait to have it done. I was lucky to get the windshields replaced quick so I should be heading out Tuesday.

I think a lot has to do with the price of fuel and the amount of cash I need on hand has grown to much more. I'm guessing it's getting harder and harder for new people to get into this field without having a hell of a lot more money to keep running and pay for fuel.

I put all my winter gear in the truck and think I'll see some winter weather this time out. Vermont was pretty cold in the morning.

I did a tale of the tape when I got home and lost 7 pounds. I guess staying away from the pasta and bread has paid off. Don't tell Rusty, it will go to his head and I'll never hear the end of it. I used to count sheep at night, now I count loafs of bread and macaroni salad.

I just thought I'd let you know that I made french toast this morning. A half a loaf's worth. :twisted:

Yup, you totally suck!!

One of my favorite things to make is hard sour dough bread toast from the bakers. A few shots of tequila and I go into a frenzy.
