reptaronice1: But is it really worth it when u suffer from it later in life? Jun 26, 2019 16:45:08 GMT

redscorpion: Back then, there was nobody to record it and post it on social media. So what happened in Fun Land, stayed in Fun Land... Jun 26, 2019 9:53:45 GMT

christain: But...DAMN! Did I hear someone say...FUN?...

Back then, it wasn't just fun....it was normal.

Jun 26, 2019 4:40:19 GMT

christain: Right now, I'm just glad to sleep in tomorrow. Seems like...the older I get, the easier my work becomes...but the harder it gets to do the easy work. Sucks being old...

Payback for a life of drink, drugs, and debauchery.

ouroboros: Ahhhhhh the sounds of children in the pool, ice cold drink in hand, looking at my sword fund and wondering...wondering.... Jun 24, 2019 21:06:46 GMT *

ouroboros: I know I know you're closer to the southern border but...we've got The Raptors, poutine and it's nice up here 3 or 4 months outa the year (we call it not-winter) Jun 24, 2019 17:34:30 GMT

christain: This week should be interesting. Wife's sister is coming down from Wisconsin for a visit. Now there will be TWO of them.

I may have to slip in some O-T at work.

redscorpion: I remember one day it was about 48c and noticed I was standing in a small puddle. Water was dripping from my uniform and down my sleeves. My feet were soaking wet. It was my own sweat. But at least my skin was cleansed of toxins...Hell? Been there. Jun 23, 2019 23:00:18 GMT

ouroboros:

happy with that I'll be Jun 23, 2019 20:43:59 GMT

nerdthenord: Come late January I won’t be on all day, but I’ll still try to check in every evening. Jun 23, 2019 20:36:14 GMT

nerdthenord: Lol! Thanks! Don’t worry, I am not about to abandon this place just because I’m taking a buying hiatus. Jun 23, 2019 20:31:45 GMT
