Congrats on the promotion. I had something similar happen at the start of this month. My boss annouced she was retiring and I was taking her spot. Unfortunately her bosses boss decided he didn't want to promote anyone to fill the spot. So for the same pay and bonus percentage I have had for the past 6 years, I went from having 9 direct reports to having 11 direct reports and 112 indirect reports, along with the responsibility for the entire state of Michigan for our organization. I look at it as a chance to prove myself at a higher level and use it to advance my career in the future.

That's awesome

Happy Birthday gents!!!

There will be baskets on the bikes to carry her Chihuahua around.

If that skill could be taught Nick would be the next Tony Robbins.

It was discussed. How ever I believe the shock of see a Katana burning a tire had everyone rattled.

I guess he'd rather spend money on a new tire than the repairs he was enquiring about.

a yes, quite a memorable conversation

Charitable contribution to the Brotherhood of the Drunk

+1. this all began when some of us were very young and before a good portion of the members were born. IMO both parties have a hand in this but the main culprit is Wall Street. When Wall Street took over the board rooms the selling out of America went into high gear.

+1. when I used to travel all the time this is what I would do. I would also talk to people I was working with and find a good hole in the wall place to eat. Always enjoyed finding local hidden gems.

Congrats!!!!

Damn...now that sounds like a day to remember.

Happy Birthday 1 and all!!!

"Grapes" is the man. Don is a great man who lives and bleeds for Canada. When ever a Canadian service person is KIA he recognizes then on his weekly show during Hockey Night in Canada on Saturdays. He pulls no pinches and as you can see has no issues with speaking his mind. He would last about 2 minutes on US tv.

I couldn't agree more. Like most good series, the producers/directors fuck it up in the end becuase they want everything to be nice tidy. 4 seasons of pure win culminated in a steaming pile of shite.

SciFi nerds, Amazon has a great deal going right now. The entire series of the new Battlestar on blu-ray for $120. The cheapest I've seen it in stores is $245.

The wife and I will be there but not until after the Blue Jackets game.

In, after this years epic weekend it cannot be missed.

Congrats!

Thanks Ben. I just cut about a mile of trails on my property last weekend. My sleds and I thank you!

Nice ride!. How about a ride report in a few weeks? The Sonata is on my short list along with the VW CC.

I hate snakes toobut that is awesome. The video in slow mo where the snake does a pitch up at the end like an airplane landing show's how developing this skill is.

Where and how much? Maybe I can talk the wife into taking a break from school and getting away?
