Well, spent the night partying (soberly) with the neighbors. My brother, Becky, Jennifer, and Dustin went to VoTech hill to watch Las Vegas's fireworks. Its the highest point in the valley and it's one mile away. Dustin didn't want to leave the trucks cause of scorpions, Jennifer wanted to turn the lights on to see the fireworks better...It was an interesting night. The neighbors red taped the road off for X thru traffic...but they only had $50 worth of fireworks. The main party favorite was booze and pot. lol. Those days are long past for me...but it was fun hanging out.

 Jim  Talked to Skip about his wonder drug that lets you
Talked to Skip about his wonder drug that lets you live forever (supposedly another Gerovital, Laetrile, HGH) answer to a healthier/longer life. It's an MLM that sells a Mangoxxx juice. I was thrilled to point out those tiny letters at the end of every article, that say its all BS, not to take it's advice, use it as therapy, and to seek a physician for any ailment. I love franchises...they all look the same to me.
The real way to make money is to SELL franchises with your own DNAJavalium Juice from the jungles of Columbia with actors, statements from DR's, and Testimonials...and be sure to include the disclamer statements to forgo the lawsuits and libel laws. LOL

 jim  Went to LVMS and watched Fireworks
Took Becky, Dustin and Jennifer to the Las Vegas Motor Speedway (Bullring), and watched 3 hours of racing and a demolition derby. At the end, they had a decent fireworks display that lasted 5 minutes. It was pretty cool.

What I call a good deed, is something you do nice for someone else, without anything to gain from your action.

 jim  Another day of good deeds. Helped someone move.
I helped move a friend across town for about 7 hours today, and it was HOT! Everything from a queen bed to a refrigerator. Guess I've still got the physical stamina that kind of labor requires and that's nice to know!
Bought 6 cartons of smokes, laid back, watched tube. Made some smoked pork/gravy and mashed potatoes for dinner. (Just didn't feel like going out for KFC).

 jim  I hate waiting for things. Loff is still unemploye
Waited in a parking lot for 2 hours while Jennifer got new glasses ,
then I went back an hour later and picked up David (a roomie) an hour later in the same neighborhood.
Installed a shell on Robert's truck. (I dug it out of a dumpster, lol). It looks great. Then they left us with 10 loads of laundry hoping we'll do it. WOW! That would take all day and night to finish!!! I figure if we do it, we'll hit a laundrymat and do it all in 1 hour.
Talked to Loff today.
He's not having any luck finding work. I told him my house appreciated the taxable equivalent of me making $17.50 an hour last year, and I cashed in on it with a loan that I can write off, and I'm making more interest than I'm paying for the loan. Ain't math wonderful!!! But most people don't get it. :(
Life is simple if you let it be.

 jim  Toilet Paper Statistics
Another day for shopping.
Turns out we go thru 160 rolls of toilet paper a month.
Now if that ain't the WILDEST statistic you've ever heard, let me know.
That's 160 / 4 people = 40 roll/ person = 1.30 rolls per person a day!!!

 jim  Dustin and Jennifer will be here for 2 weeks
It's been a while since my last entry. A lot of things have happened I suppose. I just found out
Dustin and Jennifer will be here for 2 weeks (instead of 4 days) and I just went shopping. We didn't prepare for that kind of time. Don't know what to think about that. But all in all, life is good.

 jim  Becky and I played pool at PTs with Skip!
Skip has got to be the best pool shooter I've ever known.
He's got some excellent shots.
He tried teaching me the ropes, but I'll never be in his league..

My neighbors gave him to me His name is Rusty, and he's totally untrained. He's a Jack Russell Terrier, tiny little thing, raised with two Pit Bulls...very timid. We'll see how it goes.
