My friend graduated from the University Of Wyoming in Cheyenne. At the time he said his dormitory was the tallest building in the state. It a lot different out your way. Not a lot of people for a whole lotta land. Wyoming has 3.8 head of cattle per person. When I lived in Billings the hospital there was the go to heart place for 4 states.

That sounds good to me. 38.8 cattle per person means a lot of steak!

Yup. Wish they could finish it. I have heard they were offered help from the government, but turned it down. I respect that stance, but hope they can get the job done. It would be an incredible sight.

I know it is REALLY BIG, but why don't they finish it?

[Astro]

LOL & it's nice to make a friend in case you break down!

You got that right. I was on a trip to Houston once and had a blowout. Whoever had put tire on had used an electric sock wrench, so there was no way I was going to get it off with the little mini one leg tire iron that came with the van. I was "rescued" by a couple guys I bet were illegal aliens. They did not speak a bit of English, just "Houston Amigos". But they had an old 4 way tire iron in their car that did the trick. So I gave them a couple of twenties and we all lived happily ever after.

lobster prices plummetted three months ago - you can get it airmail now, and cheap at some supermarkets

You don't reckon Red Lobster would be willing to pass that savings on to us do you?

A woman that used to work at the Lake Worth pool where I used to swim told me that back in the 30's they used to kick the lobsters up on shore with their feet in the Intracoastal Waterway every night. Said she grew tired of lobster.

My dad was a general contractor and couple who guys who worked with him that were really good snook fisherman. The carpenter set all kinds of records, and was always glad to take my Dad with him, so he could catch over the one person limit. A brick/stone mason he used would times offer for him come as much he wanted. They loved catching them, but there is so much your family is interested in. So we enjoyed there excess.

I thought I dispelled that rumor

That is why the last one I put in a metal tin.

I hope you didn't dent the metal pan when you sat down.

Serious I looked up the menu and they are using a higher mark up and working on the theory that folks don't know about the labor war in Maine on Lobster.

With you all the way on the ROLL TIDE. I hate Notre Dame and like 'Bama. Which team?

Still Alabama-Georgia rematch would have mad a better game. Perhaps they should call the SEC Championship the Championship Game, and make the rest of BCS just consolation games.

Read the instruction manual. A truly experienced driver would be able to keep that engine running! The finer cars are built to last

TW, after over 21 years at it, I like that one myself.

Good morning/afternoon Astro. How does a man from Searcy become an Astro fan?

Grew up in South Florida. Worked for 18 years in Houston (was looking for a southern city that was a National League town with an NBA team). Grew up a Dodger fan (going to Spring Training in Dodgertown). But after many years in Houston and after taking my boys to the games, the Astros grew on me. Especially with the Killer Bs (Biggio, Bagwell, Berkman).

Georgia was only 5 yards away from playing for the title. But that was the ghost of Bear Bryant that made that stop.

I think I am PM free on the Gator bites!

its really not that difficult if you take 3 deep cleansing breaths before responding.

I like to type it out then delete it before posting. Self moderating.

and back paddle...

TW, last time I thought you meant back pedal, but in this case it really would be back paddle.

[Astro]

oh, give me a break!
you're paying like, 100 bucks for holes?

Just what it might cost with the holes filled in.

[Astro]

No. and thank you. I am a shutter bug. I have a lot of pictures that I am proud of. Every picture I post on the cafe are mine. If I ever get them organized I plan to post some on my gallery. The key to taking a good picture is to never show the bad ones.

That is one thing that drives me crazy about my wife. She will throw away pictures because they are not "good enough". I am like, hey that is my kids (or whatever) I want that. Now I understand why.

Wow, as Sergeant Schulz would say, very interesting!

Lobster prices plummet every time they molt - which I believe is twice a year. Not as much meat, but they're better lobsters.

Is Gimli a guy or a girl? I get confused.
