Back on the road...Again

Yaaaaaa.....Sing with me.." on the road again, I'm on the road again..."

I'm taking the black stead out of moth balls on Monday and hitting the road. Just a short trip to Fresno, CA. and Sacramento, CA. for the week.

It's been a busy past couple of weeks. I started selling my toys on ebay....$1200 for 135 Hotwheels, I should have done this a few years ago. I only have 1500 more Hotwheels to go and then I will have a large dent into the toy mess. And maybe my garage back as well.

Started riding my bike again last week. I did 25 mile today and won't be able to sit for a day or two. I have a nice Kona full suspension bike that is sooooo nice to ride. Fat furry woodland creatures need all the help we can get.

Update on the nickname "Tweek". I like it and have even changed my caller ID on my cell phone to say "Tweek" when he calls.

Squirrel is having an open hole this weekend. He is going to have a keg of Yellow Snow Ale from Rogue Ales on tap...Gotta love the squirrel, that little party animal. Rumor has it that he is putting out a tray of pickled Herring just in case anyone drops by.

More later.

"Yellow Snow Ale"? For some odd reason, that sounds less than appetizing. But then, hamsters are fussy... Travel will no doubt much appreciate squirrel's kind thoughtfulness.

Herring, did someone say pickled herring? I'll start flying in your direction as fast as I can . . . oh well . . . the water route will take a few days and pickled herring is like smoked eel it only lasts so long in the sunshine, just ask wickedhamster.

you told me that they were serving the juniper pale ale that I like . . .

the whole yellow snow marketing thing, while amusing, troubles me

I will attempt to suppress my excitement over the recent (and future) eBay sales . . . {doing a happy dance in the corner}

Yellow Snow Ale=Juniper Pale Ale

Marketing told them that they could never sell anything with the name of Yellow Snow Ale....I hate marketing.

So, what car would you buy your kid???

There seems to be a general discussion running rampant around here about what type of car you should by a kid. And when said car should appear around the house. As I only have 4 years to pull this off, better start now. Things to consider before buying the car: 1. DD must complete 12 hours of flight time before taking test for permit. 2. Complete at least one driving school, Skip Barber , Bondurant Racing School , and so on. 3. DD must be able to change a tire, change the oil, do basic maintance on the car. I would like them to be able to strip down an engine and do a rebuild , however that may be just to much at this point. 4.DD must understand that I will not under any circumstance have or allow a pink car to park in front of my house. Cars come in four colors only, Red, Blue, Black, and British Racing Green. 5. Just what is the perfect Horse power to weight ratio? 6. Only one passenger in the car at a time. This is a good argument for a older British sports car that only has two s...

When do you take a Vacation?

I don't really take vacations, instead I take a lot of small trips with my family. I put the two little rodents in the back and we drive and enjoy time with each other. Although no one in the family is a road warrior like me, they do enjoy the destinations. I have not taken any days off this year and will take my "Vacation time" in December and have fun with the rodents. I guess I will never understand someone who needs to leave the kids with the Grandparents and go away for two weeks to some place expensive for a break. I mean, shouldn't you home life and family be where you want to go when you need a break. However, I do understand that this does not apply to my MIL....not going there.....not going there........We teach our kids to live and breathe in this world, don't do that, don't do this. But, do we ever teach our kids to have fun. Does anyone ever say do this, do that, or run wild and have fun? Next time you are driving down the road and you pass one of...

Starbucks everywhere

SEMA.... There was a Starbucks not to far from the booth, but what is up with the price of everything almost double what it is at a normal Starbucks? And when I tried to order a Venti Americano in a Tall cup, the guy just gave me that " I'm soooo confused " look. So I tried to order it in more simple terms, "four shots with just a little water for color". This just made matters worse. In the end I just received a Venti. I as a rule don't like the Venti as it's as tall as I am and makes it hard to drink. And in support of the glorious Hamster, please go vote for him and his new World Order at the Ellen Degeneres web site. vote: Hamster Write in: Wicked Hamster As the TKW says "Vote now and Vote often"
