Hey NMD. I think it really embarresed her. I kinda felt bad about that but still thought the t-shirt was classic. LOL
jak466,
That is a classic...... Why would she be embarrassed? If she was woman enough to do that.... She should be woman enough to own it........ That is just my "adult" take responsibility for your actions side coming out....
Take Care,
NMD

Wrapping up the last 6 hrs of my 36 hour shift. Ready for that to end.
Chief sent me an email today. Wanted to apologize to me for losing my 35W pin. (I didn't know I had one). Appearently every firefighter that responded to the bridge collapse was given a pin to wear on their class b shirt. Our chief seemed to have misplaced ours. Oh well.
Working with one of the newer guys today. His turn to cook. He is making a Japanese dinner for us.
MAN IT was hot and humid out yesturday. There was a car fire in one of the ravines in town. A car went about 75 feet off the road and down an embankment. One of the newer guys yesturday on one of our calls must have had too much to eat. Took a bit of work to get to. One of the senior guys told him there is an old saying in the business. Never eat more than can fit in your mask. I think you can guess what happened.
takin the bike out tonight. Take a backroads trip. Not think about the bridge event.

State Trooper: Do you feel this vehicle is safe for highway travel?
Del Griffith: Yes sir. Yes. Yes I do. I mean she may not look like much but she'll get you where you wanna go.
I have said things in anger, deeply regretted them, (not just to my wife, sorry B) but I just don't like to "TRY" to embarrass anyone. I have made enough general mistakes in my life to not want someone to intentionally take shots at me.
There is also a difference in taking shots and trying to discuss.

Back at work today. Running hard and fast already. Had a guy jacked up on meth. looked like he was going to explode. Have to aproach those with extreme caution. He wanted help but looked like he was ready to take on all 3 of us. Thats such a sad drug. Can destroy everything in months. Makes Cocaine look like advil.
Lot on my mind today. I could probably right page after page but don't really want to go there.
Last of Summer here in Minnesota. Another month and some change and the bike goes away. Something really missing about it this year. B

On a bus to St. Cloud, Minnesota I thought I saw you there With the snow falling down around you Like a silent prayer And once on a street in New York City With the jazz and the sin in the air And once on a cold L.A. freeway Going nowhere And it's strange, but it's true I was sure it was you Just a face in the crowd On a bus to St. Cloud
In a church in downtown New Orleans I got down on my knees and prayed And I wept in the arms of Jesus For the choice you made We were just gettin' to the good part Just gettin' past the mystery Oh, and it's just like you, it's just like you To disagree And it's strange but it's true You just slipped out of view Like a face in the crowd On a bus to St. Cloud
And you chase me like a shadow And you haunt me like a ghost And I hate you some, and I love you some But I miss you most...
On a bus to St. Cloud, Minnesota I thought I saw you there With the snow falling down around you Like a silent prayer

You can take all the tea in china Put it in a big brown bag for me Sail right around the seven oceans Drop it straight into the deep blue sea She’s as sweet as tupelo honey She’s an angel of the first degree She’s as sweet as tupelo honey Just like honey from the bee
You can’t stop us on the road to freedom You can’t keep us ’cause our eyes can see Men with insight, men in granite Knights in armor bent on chivalry She’s as sweet as tupelo honey She’s an angel of the first degree She’s as sweet as tupelo honey Just like honey from the bee
You can’t stop us on the road to freedom You can’t stop us ’cause our eyes can see Men with insight, men in granite Knights in armor intent on chivalry She’s as sweet as tupelo honey She’s an angel of the first degree She’s as sweet as tupelo honey Just like honey from the bee
You know she’s alright You know she’s alright with me She’s alright, she’s alright (she’s an angel)
You can take all the tea in china Put it in a big brown bag for me Sail it right around the seven oceans Drop it smack dab in the middle of the deep blue sea Because she’s as sweet as tupelo honey She’s an angel of the first degree She’s as sweet as tupelo honey Just like honey from the bee
She’s as sweet as tupelo honey She’s an angel of the first degree She’s as sweet as tupelo honey Just like the honey, baby, from the bee She’s my baby, you know she’s alright.....
A posting to the van mailing list may/96 notes the existence of a "lost verse" to this song, here transcribed from a performance on the van morrison in ireland concert video:
There’s a rose pressed inside a bible That she reads on the balcony She’s sweet in slumber and I’ve got her number For the beginning of the century.

I knew you had taste fig. One of my favorites is Caravan (live version with the band) Last waltz album
How about this:
By: Jimmy Buffett 1974
Mother, mother ocean, I have heard you call Wanted to sail upon your waters since I was three feet tall You've seen it all, you've seen it all
Watched the men who rode you switch from sails to steam And in your belly you hold the treasures few have ever seen Most of 'em dream, most of 'em dream
Yes I am a pirate, two hundred years too late The cannons don't thunder, there's nothin' to plunder I'm an over-forty victim of fate Arriving too late, arriving too late
I've done a bit of smugglin', I've run my share of grass I made enough money to buy Miami, but I pissed it away so fast Never meant to last, never meant to last
And I have been drunk now for over two weeks I passed out and I rallied and I sprung a few leaks But I got stop wishin', got to go fishin' Down to rock bottom again Just a few friends, just a few friends
(instrumental)
I go for younger women, lived with several awhile Though I ran 'em away, they'd come back one day Still could manage to smile Just takes a while, just takes a while
Mother, mother ocean, after all the years I've found My occupational hazard being my occupation's just not around I feel like I've drowned, gonna head uptown
Coda: I feel like I've drowned, gonna head uptown

Why would she be embarrassed?
