 Just have the tires delivered to the warehome!!  Then go over to the warehome give randy your bike, grab a drink from the fridge and get in the hot tub, until he gets done!  [thumbsup]

Works for me ;D

2 things:

1. fastwin:  I bet colin is a good video game player. I know he works hard to do that. 

2.   Just have the tires delivered to the warehome!!  Then go over to the warehome give randy your bike, grab a drink from the fridge and get in the hot tub, until he gets done!  [thumbsup]


Bingo! You're right on both accounts! Problem is the "meltdowns" when he messes up a game or it jerks him around. Have to shut the game off and wait for him to finish burning up on re-entry. Then I have to repeat the same thing I always say, "it's a game, it's supposed to be fun, if it's not fun then don't play it", which to him is the same as me going "blah, blah, blah, blah...". :P Next time he blows up over a game I'll just with the your second point. I'll go to Scott's, drink his beer while sitting in the hot tub and watch Randy fit some new buns on the bike! Very civilized! [drink] [thumbsup]

O.K. this is creeping me out - that is, verbatim, what happens around our house  :o  I mean down to the letter!  Must be an age thing?  Anyway, I enjoy the days of knowing exactly where Sam is and who he's hanging out with  :-\   

Hmmm, that's kind of a crappy.  Sorry for that.

I think about this all the time......it's the thought that keeps me sane on the days when it seems like the moon is off balance and my kids can do nothing but fight and complain!

I had a great day! [thumbsup]

Work was good, my bicycle ride was great, and my workout was good too.  Endorphins are the shit.

Well, OK I think, all things considered. It's gonna take some time, but I think he'll do fine.

Thanks Bryant ;)

You know, it was a good day... Wrapped up a big job (mostly). Hung out with Randy. Quality time with Stephanie, & my friend who's wife just died.
Witty reparté on the forum, exciting events this weekend.
Good music, good food, good wine.
All that, plus my good looks & charm ;D

Life's good...

See you soon [thumbsup]

OK, this is one of those good threads. People have good days, sometimes they have bad days... mostly good. Thankfully. Oh yeah, and people other than me have hell with their kids. Isn't that their job? To test you 24/7? More goodness. They're not bad kids, they just drive us nuts and it's OK to say that on the world wide web. No harm, no foul. And yes, being an adult qualifies you for being susceptible to be driven nuts by your kids. It completes the circle. Maybe I should bring up the "knocking sense into them with a shovel" post again.... nah, bad idea. [laugh] [bang] [popcorn] Didn't I say I was finished with parenting nonsense posts earlier? OK, now I am for sure. ;D Again, back to scooter posts! [moto]

i was gonna call randy but this morn was the only time i had to do it except for late (9pm or later)
in the evening. he will get some of my business soon enough. today was a decent day but got alot better. the ride to eurosport was awkward with 2 tires wrapped around my waist however some kid did make me laugh when the best he could come up with at the light was "dude! u look like the michelin man. hahahahaha!" i get to eurosport at 10:00 a.m. told work i would be in at noon. the guys there were nice esp tony and scott ( another patron in there said scott used to ride in moto gp when i mentioned i normally use AMS-A). don't know if it was true but whatever. so at 12:00 a gentlemen in overalls walks out and says your chain is trashed you need a new one A.S.A.P. we can do it now for X amount. i told him to just put the tire on and let me get to work as i am already late. so at 12:30 (2 1/2 hours ) i pay and i am headed to work. i call ams when i get there and ask if when they did my warranty brake work 3 weeks ago ( and i have only ridden to work 3x since then) did they notice anything wrong with my chain. i was told as recall everything was in really good shape. so now who do i believe. i looked at my chain with a magnifing glass and don't see any stress marks everything looks good on both sprockets. i am sure those guys are good decent guys but it just didn't feel right like when i walk into ams and tara and mark call me by name. so the tires are on, i am on my way and my son has said he will purchase me a new ramp if it comes back screwed up. so all in all not a bad day (at least the only crap in my yard belongs to the dogs all be it a great dane and a lab so they look like bombs)

home will always be between the red and rio!!!
