subvet

Glad to see your forum return subvet. Hope you're doing alright. Yes, sometimes life forces us to re-arrange our plans. No doubt about it. Hang in there. 

It is all downhill from 100

Let me know when we are down to 25 days & then I can countdown like it's a spectacular Christmas present under the tree. Woo Hoo!

Thank you MIColtsFan. What did the red marks mean

Popularity is fleeting, never got to set at the "cool" table in school.....

That is hilarious subvet!!! I was an athlete that was not in a clique....I can relate.

Hey subvet, nice to see you back my friend! Real football games on the TV docket is a BEAUTIFUL Thing isn't it?!!

Gotta love it in the tough temps you have to work in...glad you have some relief

It's especially tough now that I don't have computer access, I can read posts here any time but for some reason my tablet won't keyboard won't let me post here so I get on when I can and hopefully stay current enough to get my "fan" card punched.

Still 79 in Southern Indiana!

Band wagon fans are fun. I'll be here when they return!

well, I admit, I became a fan because of Peyton, watched him at UT and followed him to Indy, but now I am a Colts fan.

What's not to love about the Colts? <3 Lions are my number 2 team, so.. you take the good years with the bad and support your team!

we had a lot of wind, just a few snow flurries so far.

Ditto here in Wisconsin too Gramz. High winds & just a few flakes. No real accumulation yet. I never understand why people spend good money to go downhill skiing when I do that everytime it snows on my metallic forearm crutches. Not fun at all in my humble opinion.

SW....one thing I will never be is a skier....wanted to at one point...I'm feelin it thinking about it buddy!

I am with you shecolt. We cannot just give an open check....or we will drain our savings. I have known people who have spent 100K on a wedding....craziness in it's utmost form.

Yeah but you should have seen the glares I got from my wife AND daughter when I (jokingly) suggested to have it in a country church we all know and have a pot luck in the basement.....

I could feel the stares even though I wasn't looking their way. Evidently wedding days are nothing to joke about.

Yup, for the bride to be it is their opportunity to play the role of princess. Everything is for her: the cake, the gown, the photographer, the presents, & the shiny diamond ring...Meanwhile, no one came to see rental tuxedo boy & all he gets is a thin silver band on his finger that looks like a washer that fell off a major appliance. Wedding are no laughing matter from the female perspective...EVER!!!

Do they still make Mello Yellow?

"Enhance your mellow" ...It sounds like a t-shirt slogan for NY Knicks basketball player Carmelo Anthony's fan club to me anyway.

Old hippie saying from my misspent younger days.....

I hope it makes life easier for You Summertime.

Terrible to have to make that choice. The weather has been back and forth . But extremely hot this past weekend. sweltering!

Air conditioning, ice cream, & root beer floats always feel good in the Summertime.

You are going to have a 'pothole' forming in your bones....big change in temps makes concrete crumble....not good on the bones either. I am living proof.

In average, the temperature is ok. You are always going to extremes?

Bringing new meaning to your screen name.

I would love to sit in...used to train it in trucking. Every industry is interesting. Yes sometimes it is like watching paint dry, but so important.

I can sit through almost any lecture topic/safety training as long as I get well compensated for my time & effort. Keeping all your limbs intact & burn free is a good policy in my book.

I hope we can do better....tougher schedule....better roster.....better record.

Fix the line, fix the line, fix the line...Did I mention fix the line? Do that subvet & I agree with you 100% my friend.

I do not think I have it...need to check. Thanks!

thanks for the tip! I never heard of this and it sounds right up my alley

If you really want to watch it, find the first season and try it. These are the last episodes before cancellation and really aren't as good as the early ones were.

Glad you had a great day. I did until I made the mistake of tasting a Cadbury cream egg. Yuck! Can't understand why anyone likes them. Just tasted like slimy sugar to me.

wonderful! me too! ready for more of those memories

Yeah, it's gonna be miserable and we don't have AC, even the break room just has a fan.

Taking my standard "hot day" supplies, 6 or 7 liters of sparkling water and gatorade.....

Try not to melt today subvet.

Good luck subvet....like I have said before...I do not miss my job on days like these....or 20 below for that matter. Good job on the fluids.

Irsay haven't tweeted anything since yesterday... He must be working hard on Manning's contract.

SW...my left thigh still remembers that long needle...has not been the same since.

The sting of that long needle never really goes away unfortunately does it? It still hurts like h*** even years after the fact. Just like #18's departure, it is gonna kill me man because we all know what's comin'up next & we are just waiting for the other shoe to drop with an enormous ...This won't feel good at all. Don't we at least get a sucker for our pain? More like a stiff drink.

Ditto! Hydrate! I remember an old NIKE commercial and it said if you're thirsty you're already a quart low!

Methinks that Nike might have a vested interest.

My understanding is that thirst is an accurate reflection of need, but that doesn't change the fact that 6 pounds in 8 hours is unhealthy - unless perhaps you are an elephant following a Richard Simmons video.

It wasn't that hot (93 indoors, 102 near the ovens)but it was humid and we were short handed so there wasn't much down time. I always take 4 or 5 liter size bottles of sparkling water to work with me and drink them all but rarely need to "pause for the cause."

Nope, I'll never get sunstroke, my water processing equipment works overtime.....but thank you for the good advise!

So, on Sunday night, traffic on Status Update rises significantly or does that mean the party & festivities start at your place Subvet? Does that make you the Master of Ceremonies then? Just Kidding!!!

It means after the evening news I was both laughing and annoyed with some of the postings on different threads. It was the first extended period spent reading this board and it was not boring.

I cannot believe how much fun this board is....I get on here just to laugh and have fun with friends!!

LOL, Texans are proud of their heritage and it would be more like: "Just sent another yankee home air mail!"

I'ts a whole different world I guess.

When I hear my brother - who spent the first 40 years of his life living in NJ, then Philly, then Long Island - talking with a southern drawl, my mouth just hangs open in astonishment with probably spit pooling up on my shirt. Not saying it's a good thing or a bad thing, but I just can't wrap my head around it. At LEAST he isn't a Cowboys fan. That would be just too much.

That is a problem because the accent is real easy to pick up, the odd thing is when I visit with friends or family from there, which happens often, the drawl creeps back into my speech and it stays for days after getting home again.

13 here....excellent subvet...IF you wanted to lose it. I hope that is the case. Regardless...a great accomplishment.

70 pounds really? If my memory is correct, don't you work in a bakery with hot ovens? That explains you extensive weight loss subvet. Stay hydrated & cool my friend. I don't want you passing out from exhaustion okay.

It's all good, the heat at work helped me lose the weight so I will look my best on 14Sept when I walk my daughter down the aisle and give her away to my new son in law. And there is a bonus to her happiness--he has field level end zone season tickets, don't get me wrong, he will be a wonderful husband as well!

Thanks subvet now Geometry and circumference finally makes sense & has relevance to me. So much for all those pointless general education college courses in my lifetime. HA! HA!

SW: Isn't Sir-Cumference Charles Barkley?
