Also while I'm anti watching things I've noticed these Dog's journey movie previews which I guess is a sequel to a Dog's purpose which in both films a dog dies over and over again. What kind of sick person could sit and watch that emotional torture.

Finger printing was a let down. I was expecting nasty black fingers that were impossible to scrub clean. Nope, red ink that they bake and turn black. Fingers seem fine.

She asked if I had warm hands because they work better. Had running pants on so I just shoved them down my pants while I waited to fill docs out. Figured my junk would make them warm.
Pants? I thought you were going to strip down before going in.

Bars getting shut down reminded me of a place in a neighboring town that was shut down.

Used to be an old bar/strip joint in town named Tom and Jerrys (not actual but I'm going with this). One time this girl tried to come up with something new, so she thought she had this great idea for the slow night. She covered herself in whip cream and came out on stage. Tom and Jerry were both there and thought it was a great idea. You had to pay 5 bucks to take a lick of whipped cream.

Cops were making their rounds and at that time Tom and Jerry were getting some whipped cream. Cop came in and arrested Jerry but left Tom alone. When it was all said and done, it turned out that Tom had a liquor license and not Jerry.
I have a buddy who was on his school's entertainment committee (for lack of a better term) while he was in college. They booked a couple of national acts that were student promoted. They booked one act that had a rather checkered reputation. The lead singer was known for exhibitionism. They were assured when booking that she would keep her clothes on. The night of the show they went backstage to see her covered in a shaving creme bikini ready to go on. Again they were assured that she had a bikini on under the creme. When she went on and started warming up under the lights they soon learned that she had no top on and yes, no bikini bottom on. To make matters worse, she...ahem...desecrated, shall we say, their microphone. Let's just say that after that my buddy and his committee were in a lot of trouble from the university.

Happy belated birthday, @jcyclonee! Next time you're in Dodge I'll treat you to some top shelf tequila.
My parents are coming up this weekend. Just send it up with them. Otherwise, late this summer.

About 2 years ago I had the actual really good tequila for the first time. I couldn't believe how good it actually was. I'll never pay that much for the stuff but I learned that Jose Ceurvo really doesn't know what he's doing very well.

After a couple shots it all tastes better.

@jcyclonee when you are done going from house to house on your swingers tour and get rested up, what are you guys doing to your house for graduation? We put that wood plank stuff down in our kitchen, dining, and laundry/storage rooms. Now it makes the living room carpet look poorer. Gonna get nailed for that soon I feel.
I put down about 200 yards of wood chips along the rear property line last weekend. I'll need to do about 30 yards in the front but need to remove a bunch of the old stuff because it's up to the top of the brick pavers. The deck railing needs to be stained. We're painting the kitchen and dining room. I hung some plant hangers on the front porch. We need to clean the carpet. I'm replacing a toilet seat. Putting in 3 new floor vent diffuser things. New faucet in the kitchen. Seal the concrete patio. I just bought a pressure washer (I know longer need to grovel to the neighbors) so I'll get to clean the siding and decking. Clean the garage fridge (it'll be easier if I get rid of some of that beer). Wash the windows. Since I'll screw up half of that stuff, I guess I'll have to probably do a lot of that stuff twice.


Are you guys getting a tent? We're trying to decide if it's worth it to have somebody deliver and install it or if we should do it ourselves. When you're done with yours can we just pick up your leftover ribs and pulled pork?

Somehow I saw the first one it was sad and good at the same if I remember right.

Certainly not as sobering as Schindler's List. Now there is depressing but good movie, that I feel people should see especially if they are weak in history. If more people would see it maybe, maybe more would try to keep bad things from happening in the world. Welp off my soapbox for the day.

Something I don't like" when you go to someone's house, ask to use the bathroom, and then find out that the lock on the bathroom door doesn't work.

I'm always convinced someone is going to barge in on me doing my business and we'll forever have an awkward relationship.

I was going to do a tent. My sister did it for both kids and I thought it worked great. Nice thing was nobody had to enter the house, hence no need to update anything so it says money. Wife wasn't going for that. Then the one tent company within reasonable distance requires you to secure all four corners into the ground. Meaning I would be jackhammering a hole into our driveway for one because of the layout of our house and garage, I had to veto the tent then.

We have painted half our garage (inside), and did some basic cleaning. Will grab the power washer and hit the house here soon. We went to rock chips for our landscaping a few years ago. Nice thing is the color really works with our house and the chips don't start looking dated like river rock. If you want to liven it up through some lava rocks in there and add a little more color.

Years ago Mrs. Velo and I were in Cabo. We went out and decided to buy some tequila to take home. We went early in the day to a big liquor store that had a bar attached. The guy wanted to let us sample them so he opened the bar so he could give us shots to try them out. Needless to say we left with several bottles of a variety of flavors or tequila.

hhmmpp....I was just cleaning up email a smidge. Notice several unread emails in a file under my wife's name. I pop it open to make sure I didn't do a large email drop in there, I do hit the wrong folder once in awhile. At the top I see this one email for a gift card she got her nephew. I spent roughly 3 hours a few months ago tracking down this information that is in an email in a folder under my wife's name. Almost certainly put there by her since the folder was not one I had noticed before.

If I can't find an email that I need, there are two other folders that I usually use and will check there. Probably why when something is lost I will be the one who has to find it, rest of the family will make quick glances everywhere. Then they think I must have moved or hid whatever was missing since I found it. No win brother.
