T.O.'s hello thread...

Texas Outlaw · Subject: T.O.'s hello thread... Mon Oct 19, 2009 6:50 pm

Hey guys,
things have gotten very complicated in my life right now; I really don't want to come on in a year and say hey guys, remember me?
So, I will use this to stop in and say hello.

Doesn't mean I intend to quit posting, but work was hard, everyone on my case, and I just got home.

So just want to say hello to everyone. The girl comes out of the hospital tomorrow.

Hang in there T.O.! One thing I always try to remember (can't remember where I heard it) is "Don't let the Bastard(s) win". It's great cause you can apply it to anything (or anyone) in life.
I agree, PM any of us if you need anything.

Or as they say in Latin "Illigitimatus non carborundum" Don't let the bastards wear you down. Twisted Evil

Yeah, one of the m/c's that has been recruiting me has the motto, "never let the bastards run you down!"

I'm good, just working my ass off; the more I give the more the bosses want... Then hospital visits, then the gym until 9 or they throw me out.

One thing for those of you that know me: I only have one gear, and that is FULL SPEED AHEAD!

My motto, come hard, or don't come at all!

On an unrelated note, I feel great. The diet and exercise commitment is paying off. I'm also strong as an bear (I was gonna say ox, but I'm more hairy than an ox).

One other thing, the boss was getting after me yesterday for a complaint against me. I basically told him, you know boss, I got a baby on the way, the girl is in the hospital, so I'll take whatever penalty you want to give me because it just doesnt seem that important to me.

All of a sudden, little things in life don't matter to me.

Yeah, we should start a club called the Not Guilty club. Wait, what kind of trial are you talking about? Very Happy

I was speaking in figurative language as in 'the trials and tribulations of life' not in reference to any court proceeding affraid

I do like that idea of a Not Guilty Club though, I'm assuming everyone gets a free pass Twisted Evil

Hopefully this will bring a smile.............

"Anyone with needs to be prayed over, come forward, to the front at the altar," the Preacher Bran says.

Leroy gets in line, and when it's his turn, the preacher asks: "Leroy, what do you want me to pray about for you."

Leroy replies: "Preacher Bran, I need you to pray for my hearing." The preacher puts one finger in Leroy's ear, and he places the other hand on top of Leroy's head and prays and prays and prays, he prays a blue streak for Leroy.

After a few minutes, the Preacher removes his hands, stands back and asks,"Leroy, how is your hearing now?"

Leroy says, "I don't know, Preacher Bran, it ain't 'til next Wednesday!"
