Hump-Day already...!


Yep, with only a 3 day workweek, today is Hump-Day!

Well, the deal on the car for my son is off, thanks to my wife. The search continues.

After reading Mark's blog, he's been talking lately about his first car.
My first car, was a 1964 Ford Fairlane, that was MINT. It was a light green color, and I loved it.
The bad news is, in the first 6 months of owning it, I got in 6 accidents, NONE Of which were my fault! 2 of them I wasn't even in the car! This car must have had a "HIT ME" sign on it. Once, a lady accused me of hitting her (she came out of a parking lot and hit my car in the door), and luckily, a dozen or so witnesses told the police the true story. When she refused to pay for my repairs, I had her thrown in jail (at the recommendation of my insurance company). She was only there a few days before agreeing to pay me, then after paying me a few dollars, skipped town.
I finally got rid of the car, as I figured my luck may run out.. and bought my first "hot car". More on that another day.

On to the news:

Sage advice on taking wildlife photos: "When a bull whale comes at you with an erect penis, it's nine feet long. It's like a torpedo. And you better get out of the way, fast"

Ok, this is way too weird

That's it for today... have a good one...
