    What Annoyed You Today?

    Roof leak....................right next to the back door in new add-on porch. We have had DRIVING rains from the south the past few days all punched in the butt by 60 to 70 mph gusts. It is really pissing me off by holding up my sheet rocking.

    What Annoyed You Today?

    Went to my United Health website this morning and tried to log on. This has never been a friendly site for me as half the time I can't log on without getting locked out after 3 attempts. Its just medical info so it shouldn't be like hacking the CIA. Anyway I could not logon using FF 3.0.15...

    What Annoyed You Today?

    I have been married to the same great gal now for over 30 years (and thats after 2 previous marriages). What I have learned has helped me (and us) to a very happy and stable relationship. It is this: Tell the truth. Always tell the truth even when it hurts. Of course maybe I am just lucky to...

    What Annoyed You Today?

    I just discovered we have a Raccoon living under the house. Right under my computer room. I bear no malice or ill will towards any animal but this dude has to go.

    What Annoyed You Today?

    I quit cold turkey in 1988. I have never even taken a puff since. When I quit I was in Las Vegas. Every bartender in the Northwest part of town was begging me to start again and offering me cigs and doobs. They had a problem, I was too good a toker (tipper) to just throw out (and they were...

    I would love to see the museum et'al but a minor difference in the past between myself and a certain state government has made it impossible for me to get a passport. Still trying to work it out tho.
