9 Holes

Willie and I hit the course today.  The first game of the year!

The Rams are showing their age, with a whole lot of dings and dents.  And rust.  

I can't recall the last time I played this poorly, but it was awesome to get out.

So the league's worst golfer with the cheapest set of clubs is gearing up for another season of whacky golf outings.

I hope the entire golf season has weather as nice as today.

Biker In The Making

LastName digs bikes.

Oh yeah.

And I know he can do it.

He has what it takes.

2012 First Ride

Bonnie went on her first ride tonight.

Shifting...smooth.

Tires...they gripped.

Throttle...hard...and Bonnie said "Is that all you got"?

Balance...everything I came to know since 2005.

The most well-balanced motorcycle I have ever ridden.

Bonnie and I are in for a great year of riding.  

We will out-ride anybody.

Because Bonnie won't be beaten.

This will be a great motorcycle season.

99 Problems

If you have like I do, then you only deal with typical stuff.  And those aren't problems.  Just life.  Word.
First is the rap version.  Then a country version.  Pretty cool in my opinion.

Rap.

Country.

Word.

Cheesy, I know.  So What.

Smartest Guy In The Company

The Dude stopped at my cubicle today, and noticed I was working on a risk assessment report.
He said "you're the smartest guy in the company".
I asked him what on earth he was talking about.
He replied with "you do everything".
Then he walked away.

I found it to be interesting.

Beach Walk

Ninja, Baxter, and myself went to Presque Isle for a picnic and walk.

The weather was so wonderful, so it was the perfect day for it.

Afterwards we drove around and looked at neighborhoods.  That's something I've always liked to do.

We are going to paint a rock from the beach.  I'm really looking forward to that.

Thank you for a great day out Ninja.

Tragedy's A Comin'

It's the story of my life.

Click the pic to see.

(Hate on Primus if you want.  But there is no bass player better than Les.)

Motorcycle Work

Wildman came over to inspire me to get the Speedmaster running.

It took some effort, but in the end he willed it to live again.  That man has mojo.

We went to places for parts.

We charged batteries.

We discussed man things.

It was a great visit.

Summons

I typically check my mailbox once a week or so.

It seems to have backfired on me this time.

I had a jury summons that I was supposed to respond to in five days, and I checked my mail two days passed that.

Oops.

Maybe they'll forget they sent the letter out to me.

Risky Bitness

Three years ago, hardly anyone would pay any attention to risk assessment.

It's still kind of the same.

But today the entire engineering department went to a seminar.

Times are changing at the company.

Arc Flash Seminar

Today was an arc flash seminar at a local professional building.

I tell ya, you can see the pictures and videos of these work-related accidents a hundred times, and they never lose their impact.

I'm glad to work for a company that takes safety seriously.

G

I'm finally getting a workable 9mm again.  That will be awesome, since the 9mm is one of my favorite rounds of all time.

It's a mid size gun.

It's a nine, so anyone can handle it.

It has a great capacity.

It can be carried, or used for home defense.

I see no drawbacks so far.

Conduits

Checking conduits.

I should have them checked on time.

I hate conduits, for the record.
