======== The Morning Thread ========

Good Morning Gents!!! I'm up EARLY this morning...I kind of forgot what that was like :lol: Took Jen to the airport at 4:45am and just got back after some breakfast. Today is the "big day" for Grandpa so we are all ready for that. I can't wait to see what Ty hit on the Pete Rose...fingers crossed its the Rawlings patch one

Good morning ...wheres this 1/1? Scan it ban :lol:

Scan coming soon! On the phone.

Good morning Men!

I wonder if Ty "likes" BG now....

Morning fellas! Today should be a great day. Got to go to the post-office to wrap up a few deals, get paid, and hanging out with some friends. Hell yeah!

Writing a research paper on Sherlock Holmes, possibly picking up relatives from the airport, doing some general cleanup.

Broke some '08 UD Hockey this morning, one pack of Wheels Main Event, and one pack of Heroes Baseball.

Nothing from the Hockey or Wheels, just base :x and the Heroes had a Mattingly/Boggs/149, a Santana black parallel, and a Guidry YSL.

Going to sell the Boggs/Mattingly. There should be enough collectors that someone will need it...

I don't understand people's infatuation with Tebow. He is just going to be the next Ryan Leaf anyways.

He is an AWFUL quarterback...people have latched on to him because of his LOUDLY professed religious views, and his squeaky-clean image.

Sure, Lab #2 is at the interchange of 57 and 74, plenty of crap on the wall joints there.

I can't stand athletes who boast their religion for popularity. I think it's wrong.

I'll let you know once we nail down our schedule

Morning Kids :grouphug:

First off I would like to apologize for the events that took place last week or so. I'm truly sorry for them.
My wife says you know sometimes you take things completely the wrong way, and you penalize people for it.
I just looked at her like

I have been busy the last few weeks with work, Veterans Christmas parties planning (1 of them is in Wisconsin), getting wreaths to place in a cemetery for Christmas also. My Vet's committee was not sure, if we should buy some since they were like 15 bucks a piece.
I was like really? we have about 10k in a Vet's fund. I wanted to buy about 500 worth. But others seem that is to much ::facepalm::
So I think it is going to be, purchase 10 or 15 @ 15 bucks. Oh well it is a nice gesture either way.

Anyway the agenda this weekend is WORK working until Wednesday, then 2 days off and then back at it for the weekend.

And for those that don't have me as a facebook friend ( and maybe for good reason) I posted this last weekend.

From my facebook page
Thought I would share this since it is Veterans Weekend. I asked my employer Caterpillar, why they did not have a POW/MIA flag outside on at least one of the 3 flag poles that have a U.S. flag. They said they would look into it and get back to me. Well look at the flag pole outside Building A/B. It now has one.


Ok have a good day everyone. I'm off to see the wizard and a wonder wizard he is :lol:

Going to the post office, and then to the bank, plus getting Lottery tickets too.
