Growing old sucks!

Two medical students were walking along the street when they   saw an old man walking with his legs spread apart, stiff-legged and   walking slowly.

One student said: ” I’m sure that old man   has Peltry Syndrome ”.

The other says: ” No, I don’t think so.   The old man surely has Zovitzki Syndrome . ”

He walks slowly and his legs are apart, just as we learned   in class.”

Since they couldn’t agree they decided to ask the old man.

“We’re medical   students and couldn’t help notice the way you walk, but we couldn’t   agree on the syndrome you might have.

Could you tell us what it is ?”

The old man said, “I’ll tell you, but   first you tell me what you two fine med students think .”

The first student said, “I think its Peltry Syndrome .”

The old man said, “You   thought – but you are wrong .”

The other student said, “I think you have Zovitzki Syndrome .”

The old man said, “You   thought – but you are wrong .”

So they asked him, “Well,   what do you have ?”

The old man said, “I thought it was   ‘gas’ but I was wrong, too !”

THANKS MOM!

Day 5, 2015

  • Twice so far I’ve written 2014 in stead of 2015. Once I get this shit down pat, it should be June when I start screwing up again.
  • Erin returned to us yesterday. We played a game with some mustaches on sticks. She really got into it, but still lost. She/we had fun and there was quite a bit of laughing.
  • We did not go to the ride for Gil yesterday. This was an Old Fartz ride. I have no idea who Gil was, but he’s dead and I guess people in the SF Harley community really liked the guy. I hope when I’m gone that people feel the same about me.
  • 20° is too cold for me to ride. Nice guy or not. Sorry Gil.
  • My next scheduled ride is Wednesday and the weather liars are not sure if it will be warm enough for me to take the ride. Old Fartz lunch.
  • This weekend we have 2 rides scheduled. Thankfully, driving these in a car is always optional. It think Saturday, weather permitting, I’ll ride alone and Sunday we can take the Jeep. Sunday’s ride is to a country club.
  • For me to ride, I need it to be in the 40’s. I can ride in colder if forced to by circumstances, but I prefer warmer.
If you think nobody cares whether you’re alive or dead,
try missing a couple of mortgage payments.

This Weekend

Saturday I took Catherine to the ghost town, Los Fuertes, just south of LV. We spent about an hour there as I explained what each building and structure was, or at least what I thought they were.DSC_0989

Then today, Sunday, Nina and I took a long drive, about 100 miles, after breakfast. We found the San Ignacio area and saw some cool old buildings.

Day 2, Year 2015

Day one sucked. Boring and slow business. Holidays are a definite crap shoot in our lives. All the predicted snow never showed. The weatherliars have done it again. I’m sure they have a plausible excuse for their stupidity, but I’m sure that it’s all guess work and they are collecting a paycheck for sticking their privates out a window and seeing if they come back wet.

Tomorrow I’m betting that Jeannie pawned off the ML duty to the Oompa Loompa again, so I plan on going to Santa Fe and cruise the strip looking for hookers. (Just kidding, Santa Fe doesn’t have a strip and I have no clue where the hookers hang out) The other night Nina mentioned that Las Vegas has a hooker. If I recall it was during an episode of COPS where they were doing a hooker sweep. I asked her if she was cute and she looked at me like I was deranged. I guess I deserved that look as any LV hooker would be pretty much a worn out junkie.

OK, back to Saturday’s activities. I’ll probably go to Lithia and then Harley to annoy the sales staffs and entertain myself. May also head to Home Depot to check out the new year sales. I’ll probably eat at Panera’s. Or I may go to the ghost town with a friend. That would give me some exercise too.

I’ve just sat through 3 lawyer commercials on TV. I prefer the days when these ambulance chasers were banned from advertising. I think if that happens again I may jot down their numbers and call them all and ask for one of the other 2 lawyers. all three were annoying pukes.

We were born naked, wet and hungry, and got slapped on our ass – then things just kept getting worse.

New year, one less employee

  • We’ve been tired of our outside guy for some time now and I decided to cut him loose. I waited until after Christmas to do this.
  • Not sure if that’s the nicer thing to do, but that was the way I did it. I did give him 2 weeks severance.
  • He does have another job and his time with us was a second job for him.
  • Fresh start with Andy at the helm of the outside work. He’ll do that along with his inside shifts.
