I set him up for dialup/wireless/outlook/hotmail/msn messenger/pogo/games.com/msn zone...you name it. He's lvSonny now. We kicked back and played games...even had a video conference. He's hooked!

Hey Jim...I'm on the net!!! YEA!!!

Marriage laws have penalized some couples and helped others. It is a legal contract between two people. Marriage in some states say couples don't even have to be tax payers..go figure. But all in all, marriage is not a religious thing...remember separation of church and state, it's a political thing. Its how we are classified for taxation and vote mongering.

I still don't know how to think about his death. I see my aging face in the mirror. The past is gone, but its etched itself into the wrinkles of my smile. And as I float through time's boundless regions, I still ask the question: "Why all this? Was anything that has happened in my life really necessary? And if so, for what possible purpose?"  Rob got his answer with one shot I suppose, but I'm gonna hang out for the end of this incredible ride. And maybe, on somebody else's face, I'll be etched into a wrinkle of their smile. I guess that's as good as any purpose in this incredibly short life.

Just a note about the Nevada State Contractors Board ---> doh! They said my roof contractor was a BAD MAN, guilty of all kinds of things...and if he paid $200 for the $100,000+ worth of bad roofs he did, he could have his license back. Can you believe that? The hearing had several parties all screwed by him. Oh, and that wonderful $40,000 Bond they put up to get their license...forget about it! Its a junk insurance bond, nobody gets it.

Tuesday morning. Phones don't work here and it's the wiring somehow? Today is a good day to wire. I'm a witness at a hearing today. It's taken the Nevada State Contractors Board 6 years to have a hearing on the roofer who put shingles on my flat roof. So, Buyer Beware. Who cares if your contractor has a license or not? It didn't help me with my 3 ceilings and 2 walls semi destroyed by leaks. Roof technology is at least 3,000 years old. I would have been better off tieing palm leaves to my roof.

 I gave Mike a nice send off. We ate at the Gladstone restaurant near Marina Del Ray (I think). The food was excellent. Mike moves out and Becky moves in. Next week, my Step-brother is coming. I'm so very tired. It's going to be a busy day tommorrow, and here I am after driving 12 hours. I've got to move the furniture I moved into Becky's house, back into this one, then straighten up for my brother-in-law coming, and get Becky squared away for work.

 It seems like it's raining all over the world.

Well, Becky's living with me now. Becky's family is not as loyal as most I guess. We'll pick up the rest of her stuff later. It seems so cold, that her own Mom, out of pure self-interest, would get her brother to team up with her to kick her out. Becky kicked in over $1,200 a month to that household. Her Mom's not going to kick in a single penny. After her Mom heard Becky's son's girlfriend was pregnant, she used the excuse to kick Becky out because Becky "Didn't walk her kids to school". The school is 2 blocks away. Non of any of this makes 10 IQ points worth of sense to me. Unless her mom simply wanted to move back closer to her job. I think I've had smarter house plants!

Jimmy... I sent you a email today. Please read it.

Another fun day! I helped someone who locked their keys in a car get in...by popping out a window (took 5 minutes). It took 10 minutes to put it back in.

 It's a great time to think about Mr President..1..2..3.., there, I'm done. I am glad he doesn't think of me. He might destroy my house because I have mustard, chlorox and fertilizer. Hmmm, now where did I put that plutonium?

I had Becky, her kids, chicken wings, shrimp tails, chili cheese dip and the Pirates of the Caribbean for VD!

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.

 We talked on the phone last night it was after 10pm. I will be calling you at 9am today. I have an appointment at Neveda Partner's at 11am. The wind is blowing like crazy over here this morning it's 8:35am. Luv Ya becky

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.

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

 At least no one's told me any different. It's been nice grabbing technology by the balls and shaking it around a little. :)

This is GREAT! Chuck Sheppard is moving back to Las Vegas next week. He'll be 4 doors down from me!

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.

I read your messeges I'm glad that u had fun visting Sonny he is a great guy. Love U Becky

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?

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.

hello jim u an dmom like to play games huh lol. ur website is the coolest i learn a lot from it and tons of stuff to do wow i am never bored!!!. it takes many screws to buils a crib but only one nut to fill it

I had to update my window's I had 17 critical error's. so I updated my widow's to derectx.9.0 spent 53 mintues downloading. But the good thing about this is that my window's are working alot faster. Yea!!!!!! Kiss'es

 It's 63 degrees with blue skies outside.

Want to play with me? What would u like to play?

 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!

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.

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.

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.

 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.

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!!!

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.

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.

He sounded surprised that he could click my headings. The mouse doesn't change on form buttons, GoFiGuRE! Ouch!...time to recode.
