02/12/2004 20:10:13 jim Paradise on Waltons Mountain | Thu |||||||||||||||||||
Well, it's been just another day in Paradise here on Walton's Mountain. Mikeboy got a job in the big city of LA, I think he starts in a couple of weeks. He's been shacking up here for a couple of years, now. I'm gonna miss the ol'boy. On the other hand, I'm gonna put my TV BACK in the bathroom when he moves out!!! Gotta restore some sanity to this place! lol. |

Hi Jim, new site looking good. Sounds like you been having a little fun with it and learning some new stuff. Maybe you can teach me someday. Take care. |
02/12/2004 01:18:30 jim Uh Oh. I told Becky Id call her around 11pm. | Thu |||||||||||||||||||
Since then, I've had visitors, and I've talked to Mike about him leaving in 2 weeks or so and about his rent. Dang, it's late now! I hope Becky's not mad at me for not playing online pool with her. :(. Jeese..the way things work sometimes is so unpredictable |
02/11/2004 17:42:08 jim Well...I guess Ive done a good job on this websit | Wed |||||||||||||||||||
At least no one's told me any different. It's been nice grabbing technology by the balls and shaking it around a little. :) |
02/11/2004 11:47:42 jim Chuck Sheppard is moving a few houses down | Wed |||||||||||||||||||
This is GREAT! Chuck Sheppard is moving back to Las Vegas next week. He'll be 4 doors down from me! |
02/11/2004 11:07:38 jim Talked to Jerry Newberry this morning. | Wed |||||||||||||||||||
He broke his leg on an ATV..OUCH. Those things are so picky...guess you never put you're leg down while making a turn. It's instinct but the wheel sucks you right down under it. He's laid up for awhile. |
02/11/2004 10:34:07 Becky Good Morning babe. | Wed |||||||||||||||||||

02/11/2004 09:05:03 jim Its funny how ya notice things. | Wed |||||||||||||||||||
Like Mike, my roomie. He's collecting his stuff from around the house, and as usual, he's not paid me rent. What a guy! He hopes he's gonna get this job in CA, and he's gonna tell me another story about how he just forgot the rent money. What are friends for? |
02/11/2004 09:01:21 jim Its a crisp 51 degrees outside here in Las Vegas. | Wed |||||||||||||||||||
GMorning. Its a crisp 51 degrees outside here in Las Vegas. I went by and visited Sonny last night. Talked to Allen and some girl he was hitting on in a chat room. Talked to Jimmy Leavelle. Now, I was drinking beer...but it seems funny how the pots often call the kettle black. lol. Whatever, I had a fun day. Brought little Jennifer over a 9 drawer dresser she so desperatly needed too! And that was a good thing. |

02/09/2004 13:24:31 jim Morning everybody. | Mon |||||||||||||||||||
It's 63 degrees with blue skies outside. |
02/08/2004 23:04:15 Becky Hi there lover. | Sun |||||||||||||||||||
Want to play with me? What would u like to play? |
02/08/2004 18:26:42 jim Its been over a month since Rob Allred shot himse | Sun |||||||||||||||||||
He was my best friend up to the end. I hope I never get over those memories we shared. Rob, my Mom, and my stepdad's legacy's to me were the memories we shared. And as long as I'm alive, I'll tell people about them: their good thoughts, their good deeds, their good hearts. I hope more like them will come to exist. THANKS YOU GUYS! |
02/08/2004 18:10:57 jim I hoped some day computers would talk English | Sun |||||||||||||||||||
Ya know, I always hoped computers would come up with one language to control them, maybe ENGLISH. I studied Cobol, Basic, and now I'm learning C, Javascript and Perl. It takes intimate knowledge of 5 languages to write ONE APPLICATION these days. While computers have pretty much the same instruction set as they did 20 years ago, people have come up with different instruction sets to be compiled into the same computer instructions and it's a frigg'n mess. It's like, current programming technology was created by a one figured typist that was INSANE! ROTFL!!! As if anyone reads this anyway..lol Sorry, I always get silly after a beer. |
02/08/2004 18:03:19 jim Girls and life | Sun |||||||||||||||||||
Ever notice that people always go all out for what want, but once they have it, it becomes ordinary. All girls give the best head in the beginning. After that, they sit on the couch, watch TV and scatter popcorn everywhere, then they blame the mess on you. LOL. |
02/08/2004 17:47:01 jim Ever try to find a laptop station for you car or t | Sun |||||||||||||||||||
Another idea...ever try to find a laptop station for you car or truck...$300 to $500. Well, that's insane. All you need is a swivel, like a music stand, that pulls up or inserts with a docking station on it. |
02/08/2004 17:40:44 jim Hey Allen...want an invention. | Sun |||||||||||||||||||
Invent a door log, a sign in sheet for anyone that comes over when you're not home...What the heck, we have answer machines for the phone. |
02/08/2004 17:35:35 jim Changed my note software | Sun |||||||||||||||||||
Oops...I changed my note software..hoping this looks better Just finished watching XMEN 1.5...now its 2.0 time!!! YEA! It's been a Sunday at the movies here, watching my 60" TV!!! |
02/08/2004 09:27:08 jim Ooops...sorry...I wiped out some notes | Sun |||||||||||||||||||
Oh, I should say sorry to everybody who's notes I wiped out updating this website. I need to find a better method of updating this site. |

01/29/2004 04:51:04 jim Opportunity | Thu |||||||||||||||||||
Opportunity gives you more than two knockers, so grab all you can!!! I may end up in LA, consulting for W2 wages plus $3,400 a month per diem. That works out to 12.17% in taxes (W/H,Fica,Med). Some locals need work too. Sweet!!! It's a small world people, so be good. Today Chuck Sheppard, a friend in South Dakota, called. I cosigned for his first car loan, (he's 20 y/o). He's moving in with his brother Tom, who happens to live 4 doors away. |
01/28/2004 00:00:00 jim Talked to Emilio Honrubia last night. | Wed |||||||||||||||||||
He sounded surprised that he could click my headings. The mouse doesn't change on form buttons, GoFiGuRE! Ouch!...time to recode. |

01/23/2004 00:00:00 jim Talked to an old friend, Sharon Mendenhall. | Fri |||||||||||||||||||
- Sharon created the post card to the left...wow! Rob Allred (see bottom) and I knew her back in the 80's when we at URS. Sharon's daughter, Regan, who is 26 years old, is a very phenomenal artist. That's her painting to the right. Check out her ethereal paintings website at ragensart.com. She's HOT! |
01/22/2004 00:00:00 jim Identity theft strikes again!!! | Thu |||||||||||||||||||
Identity theft is the fastest growing crime in the United States. I've reordered my Visa Card twice in 4 months. Both times, within two weeks, my number was used for more than $1,000 of purchases on the net. Coincidence, or is someone rubbing a pencil over the envelope to get the raised print off the card, waiting a week or two for the card's activation, then placing orders...hmmm. The address is always to a sleazy motel. |
09/05/2007 04:57:30 jim (Reply)Added language translation links to Cutlar Enterpr | Wed |||||||||||||||||||
Added language translation links to my "SEARCH" page. CLICK the SEARCH heading on the main page to access it. That page is getting pretty cool! Spent another day of doing favors. Spent 3 hours being a chauffeur. Boned up on 'Javascript for Dummys'. |

01/21/2004 00:00:00 jim Checked out truck driving. | Wed |||||||||||||||||||
American Institute of Technology said they charge $2,800 for CDL training, and you'll make 24¢ a mile, avg 48mph, drive 60 hours a week, to gross $37,400 a year. Yuck! |

01/18/2004 00:00:00 jim Thanks for your Responses | Sun |||||||||||||||||||
I want to thank everyone for their responses to Emails concerning Rob Allred. I sent 32 emails, and received 19 responses. To the Direct Marketeers out there, that's a response rate of 59.375%, and that ain't bad. Thanks again everbody. |

01/15/2004 00:00:00 jim Went to an oldtimers lunch | Thu |||||||||||||||||||
With Dan Crowley, Larry Lewis, Larry Loff, Dale Pickett and Butch Tomasseti. Shopped for brakes on my 1999 truck. Eight auto shops TRIED TO SCREW ME. Armed with coupons ($77 to $99) for all 4 brakes, the estimates ranged from $160 to $410 for just 2 brakes. I finally lied to the last shop. I showed them an estimate for $280 that included shocks from Midas. THESE GUYS CAN'T READ!!! Ended up paying $250 for brakes and shocks. I felt sorry for the people I heard getting screwed while waiting. |
01/14/2004 00:00:00 jim Did favors for Paul | Wed |||||||||||||||||||
Replaced a circuit breaker. QUESTION: Am I the only one that thinks "The Lord's Prayer" is pathetic? It seems more like "The Corporate Empire's Prayer" to me. I shall not want, uh huh. |
