A Week in the Life of BAS
« on: September 28, 2011, 05:04:07 AM »
Hey Y'all.

I have survived. Barely.

In the past week, my oldest son married a beautiful young lady, my youngest daughter gave birth to my first grandchild (boy, 8 lbs. 20.5 in. healthy, hardly cries except for feeding time, only every 2 hours) and I have completed a move out to the country. It's not the end of the world, but I swear you can see it from here. The power company asked if I wanted to turn on the outside street light. I said hell no, I want to see some stars!

Daughter, baby and fiance' have moved in. (Kids these days do everything ass backwards.)

I just have finished setting the computer and network so I hope to comment more and even post some.

Observation No. 1: Why does everyone move all their stuff to a new place and then go through and throw out a third of it? Would it make more sense to just go over your stuff BEFORE the move? Is it just me?

Observation No. 2: Has anyone ever moved without accessing moderate amounts of alcohol and Ibuprofin? I kept forgetting. Is it two tablets and 4 beers or four tablets and two beers? Too late. The stuff is in and nothing broken that was worth anything.

In closing,

I hope the two neighbors across the street don't flip out when I stake out my Herman Cain sign.
The problems we face today are there because the people who work for a living
are outnumbered by those who vote for a living.

Congrats on the new addition(s) to the family and homestead.  ::thumbsup::

Most of your neighbors probably have never heard the candidate or what he stands for. Perhaps an education will be in order. Good luck, we all need it.

Sounds like a full week BAS!

Congrats all around!

Maybe the sign will draw in some new friends.

I throw away a third of my stuff BEFORE the move, thank you.   ::angel::

Was wondering where you've been.  Congratulations on the grandbaby, and the successful move!

Congrats on all accounts! ::beertoast:: If you're like me when you move, you find items you lost years ago and lose items you just had. ::gaah::

Congrats on the new lil one Al.  ::newyear:: Grandchildren are a blessing.  ::grouphug::
"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."
