Things that make you feel good..

Quote:Yikes! You remember the barber in High Plains Drifter? The actor who played that part said he drank about 10 cups of coffee to make his hands shake uncontrollably like they did. When you say you've had 7 cups, I have that image in my head. A guy with a straight razor about to shave Clint Eastwood, hands shaking uncontrollably. Yeah I can look a lil cracked out sometimes.

Quote:Yeah, me, too. But I've read that it has to grind to a consistent particle size. Some cheap grinders produce various size particles, which means you can get tiny particles in your coffee. At least, that's what I've read. I don't know if that's a legitimate problem, or just marketing hype by the maker of an expensive grinder. I have a fairly nice one I suppose. You can adjust the size of the grounds too, mainly to account for wear of the blade. I never get any in the coffee.
Quote:I'm kinda used to it though. I log a lot of miles for work and I always have coffee on the roadTruck driver? My step dad was one for a period of time before and after his 30 years as a UPS local driver. We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!
Quote:Truck driver? My step dad was one for a period of time before and after his 30 years as a UPS local driver. Yuppers. It can be difficult, but the money is good. I haul medical equipment. I have a designated route that takes me through Alabama, but I'll be adding on to that soon with an extra stop in San Antonio. Those UPS guys, that stuff can be crucial. That's some hustlin..

From Thanksgiving until after the new year we hardly saw him. He was home after 11pm and back at it at zero dark thirty. It is not for the feint of heart for sure. I love to drive and thought at one point about being a truck driver but it's not the path my life took. My hat's off to you and all truckers. Y'all are the major reason why we have the stuff we have in grocery stores, restaurants, the mall, hospitals, etc. Same as the linemen who go out in snow and ice storms to get our power back on. Tough jobs. Much appreciated by folks like me.

Quote:And I had no idea until I was actually talkin to a fedex driver, but those guys have to buy their routes and seniority rules..Yep and that's nuts. I couldn't handle such a fluid income. I'm one who likes to know that I'm getting paid the same every single paycheck. Other than my aversion to dealing with people in person, I couldn't be a saleswoman who worked on commission. I would be a basketcase. Moreso than I already can be. Lol.

One of the reasons why I steered clear. Much respect to those guys too
Grabbing my wife's butt before work in the morning. That makes me feel pretty good.

Quote:I'm enjoying a nice bottle Famous Grouse blended Scotch. Name for me one grouse that is famous. Just one. That's what I thought. You're really drinking cloudy bathtub gin, aren't you? Now pick yourself up from the sidewalk and go take a shower. And change your clothes, for the love of God! "Blended Scotch" he says. Pshh

I wasn't sure if my new dentist was any good but he just filled a cavity and pulled a wisdom tooth with zero pain in less than twenty minutes while teaching two assistants. I think he's alright.
With the exception of four days between trips back in mid-August, I've been away for nearly two months. I go home today.
(cue Shad Khan singing Home Sweet Home while standing in the pool at Everbank)
