  1. That was my second thought but figured I'd give him a little more rope to play with....
  2. Okay, Houdini, how did you manage to get inside of your cell? <snicker>
  3. That's odd, it is fully embedded here. Can you click on the link in the video title that'll take you directly to you tube?
  4. I LOL'ed but that is so sad, too...well, pathetic describes it better.
  5. I see you got a little distracted - totally understandable!
  6. The same can be said for a lot of the cagers on the road, too.
  7. I was working on my degree in Mechanical Engineering Tech. as well as a second one in Drafting & Design awhile ago but dropped out after my GI Bill went dry to pursue to my current career path. The lack of a degree hasn't really hurt me, per say, but I do wish that I had finish it as it surely would have opened up other doors for me. I also agree with the internship option as I had the opportunity to work in the Nuclear Engineering Department at a nuclear power plant back home while in school. That is one experience I've always valued.
  8. I think Bob Hope had it figured out a long time ago:
  9. Justice has been served.
  10. Congrat's on the new bike and welcome to OR.
  11. Rennlist strikes again! I've hosted them elsewhere and hopefully they're visible now.
  12. Focus! Ah, who am I kidding, it still distracts me every time I see it, too (but not quite as much as my avatar).

  16. I check my email while driving on my iPhone, shuffle my music, and also have a laptop running in my truck for work in the field (it is centrally located on a stand) which is how I do my job away from the office. I keep the lid propped up slightly because it is flippin' annoying closed banging itself to pieces when my truck hits every bump in the road - 2500's don't ride like a car. I do not text and I rarely answer the phone while driving (my employer strongly discourages it and we also receive annual defensive driving training). I keep my eyes forward, constantly checking my mirrors, maintaining my following distance, and not speeding too much (our vehicles are tracked via GPS). I drive over 50k miles a year for work so certain things are second nature but my primary responsibility is safely operating my vehicle and staying away from all of the idiots on the road. And there a lot of them out there - not just the texters, tweeters, facing bookers, make-up artists, gluttonous pigs, and other random crazy shit you see driving on the roads around here (and everywhere else).
