We went to SportsClips yesterday. A regular haircut is $16 which is more than I'd usually spend, but we had a coupon for $8/per. It's great for me and N, not because they have ESPN on or even because you're guaranteed to get a decent looking hetero female stylist. The big deal is that it's not a beauty salon like all the rest. Although it's not discussed, these are mostly female only clubs that guys just have to deal with. I've been to a Barber Shop, not for me either. They are a little strange to me. Oh you can be sure the guy cutting your hair is straight alright, but so is his razor. Sports Clips will probably see me again, even without a coupon.

Maintenance News! - The dryer is still not fixed. The tech is coming out again tomorrow morning. I've figured out a way to rig it functional so we can dry clothes. The gas engine procedure in the attic helped a lot. He's replacing the main control panel tomorrow. This is week 4 and I'm probably going to demand an additional year of coverage over this drawn out process.

Ben the Plumber - Day 2: I've been thru 2 new wax rings already. 2 lifelines to dad and I'm still no further along than I was before I started. Except for knowledge. I've learned a lot from it. They main thing I've learned is that I hope I have the money to pay someone else to do this next time. Lining up the bolts with the bowl holes is a real pain. I probably should have taken the tank loose from the bowl, but figured that would cause more leaks. I'm sore from wrestling the thing around all day yesterday. The real reason I'm still working on it is because the flange was broken and all 4 times I aligned the toilet over the bolts and then tried to tighten them, it would slip out of the lock. This part is not easy to replace unless you saw off the main pipe under the floor. I got some compound putty and let it dry overnight. This will probably make things easier. 

Olive Branch Car Show

A friend from work invited me to the car show. Normally I wouldn't go to something like this but decided to try something new. It was neat since it was free. The blue car has a $10,000 paint job. These people are very into their cars.

Kid's Meals

McDonald's really messed up when they did away with the traditional Happy Meals of the 70s/80s. It's a special thing when you get your fast food packaged in that cool box with the golden arch handles and know there's not just fries and a burger insdie, but also a cool toy. Rarely they still have them but it not frequent enough. It's a slap in the face to get a Happy Meal in a recycled paper sack.

Picked up lunch at an unlikely place today AND.... KFC delivers the goods. They've had the Laptop kids meals for some time, but today they had Guitar Hero Laptop kids meals. I've never played GH and the food inside probably wouldn't pass code, but the packaging is GREAT!

Birthday Number 8 & Halloween

Chicago Trip

Gumbo

At the Delta Fair we tried a sample of gumbo. Nicolas really liked it and wanted to make some. We got a recipe online, got the ingredients and went to cooking. Andiuolle sausage, chicken, and other magical stuff. It was really good. A repeater for sure.

SITE PRESENTS

After 2 years of ideas and planning, the site is now live.

Fishing Trip

We had a lot of fun last week fishing. The weather was great.

You need a lot of patience when taking a 7, 11, and 13 yr old.

There was a lot of tangling, hanging up, getting caught up, and baiting and unbaiting going on.

I'd rather be montaging

4:54 is where the defining moment of the music starts. Check it.

The music during the fireworks display tonight reminded me of this from last week. 

I finally found it on the web. One of my favorites, mostly the last half.

Aldi

Things I like about Aldi:

1) If you manage to spend $100 there, I guarantee you it won't fit in one basket.
2) If it takes more than 45 minutes to shop there, something is wrong.
3) PAPER BAGS! Welcome back old friend....
4) You have to bag your own groceries, which on the surface sounds not so great, having done it myself I will say it's much easier than the archaic lazy suzzanne bag setup WM has. It's not as fun as having someone from Kroger do it for you, but I don't mind it at Aldi.
5)The store has all of the staples in a very small footprint - basically you don't feel like you've been thru a Gauntlet when you get to the car.

"We are!!??"

We watched the olympics a lot this week. There were a lot of political ads during the commercials. My 7 yr old is coloring while she lays in the floor, she's waiting on Nastia Liuken to come back on. A Mccain ad that has played about 3 times already comes on, and about half way thru it the voice over says "we're worse off than we were 4 years ago". 

All of a sudden coloring stops and I hear "WE ARE??!!" 

This is news to her, and she's quite surprised by it. I get an unexpected laugh and smile out of her sudden concern for such matters. The tone in which she asks it and the look on her face when she's looking back at me for confirmation suggests that she thinks the speaker is full of crap.

In her world, this kind of statement makes no sense.

I can tell you that when your child confirms everything is okay in their world, it makes the "worse off" adult stuff seem not so bad. 

It happened again last night. This is about the 6th time in a year. Each time has its own visuals and subtle differences but the overall theme is the same. 

This time, I'm 2 stories in the air overlooking Battery Park. I'ts an exciting ride, but I'm on more for the view it provides than the thrill. Everything is in color which is unusual for my unconscious adventures. It's as if someone has picked up the 4 story sphere-ride from Navy Pier and rolled it in front of her to amuse her or distract her from her steady gaze over the water. She is unflinching as she holds tight to her document and light. The friends I have just met are motioning for me below with excitement. It's as if they have just got up on Christmas morning and they want to race me to the tree. As my basket climbs to the top I grab the railing to brace myself and as my head and shoulders rotate my eyes blaze past her.. All I see is the blurred faint trace of light green. I hope she doesn't think that I'm ignoring her and remembers I've shot an SD card full as she modeled for me 3 years ago. Today, I am there to see her big brothers. I almost fall out of the basket looking for them, but like the other 5 times, they are not there. Maybe they are hiding behind the multitude of their other relatives, and besides it's probably to foggy to see them from here. A quick moment of disappointment is replaced with knowing I will join my friends and we will go find them together. As I'm let off the ride, I wake up.

When I was a kid, I would dream almost every night. It was usually good and sometimes bad, but never just average. Now that I have aged, I dream less and it's usually just an everyday event with nothing too exciting, good or bad. I don't know why I keep looking for the Twin Towers. For some reason I seem obsessed with them. I do like dreaming about them and the search for them. As I write this, I'm thinking perhaps it could be that I'm searching for life before 9-11. Not the low end security at Memphis International, or gas at $2/gal, or the economy or even the war issues. A certain innocence to life in my own mind, perhaps even an oblivious approach to the hard facts of life. Even in the age of technology, the more I know, the more I sometimes wish I didn't know.

I don't know what the latest is with the Freedom Towers, but perhaps they will bring me some visual closure with my own 9-11 timeline.

Blog Continues with Marlowe's

The Apple blog I was going to use is too much trouble. Imagine that. So, I will continue to post here.
It was death week in Memphis. Usually I wouldn't go near the Graceland area, but one of my new customers is on EPB, and I needed to go see them. I was with a co-worker in from Nashville. He had heard about a Nike Outlet Store and wanted to go. This is a great place to buy Nike brand shoes or shirts of any kind at a great price. Not the greatest area of town, but worth it if you like Nike clothes.

I had heard about Marlowe's restaurant on Food Network. On TV the placed looked stuffed with Elvis memorabilia and some good Memphis food. I am always looking for a new place to eat so we went. From the outside we saw 3 pink limos and there was only 1 other car in the parking lot. Taking this as a bad sign at 11:45 we almost left. I noticed a sign saying "now open at noon for lunch" so we went in. Turns out that they just started opening for lunch and we were a little early. The service was great and the food was good. The waiter recommended the ribs before we even looked at the menu. They fell off the bone and the sauce was good. Flavor left a little to be desired but was still pretty decent. The prices were in line with the value and I will go back at least once more to see if they have the official Elvis peanut butter and naner sandwich with 2 sticks of butter on the menu.

The attached picture was from Google Images.

New blog site on the way. Will post address here in a few days.

107 heat index

Woa, is it hot. Me and the kids went swimming this afternoon. It's about the only thing you can do in this kind of heat. I saw some lady running for exercise on the way home. I guess she is trying to see if she can cheat death.

The water wasn't cold at all so we got snowcones to cool off more. I got a strawberry cheesecake with cream on top. It's still my favorite kind.

We had to leave 15 minutes early because there was an unusual clap of thunder and they closed the pool. Still no rain but it's clouding up.

Should be an interesting week at work. Stay tuned..

Vacation Day

I took yesterday off. What a day!

First I started working on getting everything to "IN". It's an organization concept from the Getting things Done book I recently read.  It says that if you will get all of your stuff organized into a system that he gives you the workflow for, then your mind will no longer be concerned with all of your internal lists. It works! I'm not even done yet but just starting the process has made a big difference.

Second, I decided to use the Massage gift certificate that I got for Father's Day. Massage Envy in Collierville is a great place. I've been here once before and it was a worth the trip, but nothing like this time. I don't know if the experience changes with the massage therapist, or if I was just more tensed up than last time. It's probably both but I was feeling no pain when I left there yesterday. It was unbelievable how much better I felt and even how much better I could breathe. It wouldn't take much more convincing to get me to go on a regular basis. Of course that is exactly what they want you to do, claiming on their literature that once a month is good for your health. I'm starting to agree.

Last, we went out for ice cream after the sun went down, which was about 8:30. We took the dogs because at Brusters they give you a doggie scoop. A lot of people were there. One group showed up with a collie about 10 times the size of our dogs. Our dogs immediately started barking and going into attack mode. The collie stood still looked at them and had a look on his face like.. "riiiight"

This morning I woke up to a very loud edger being used by my neighbor we have correctly named "tool man". This guy never goes inside. He's always in the garage or the yard and he has every tool known to man. The other day when the storm came and the power went out - 5 minutes into the darkness I hear this distant hum of a large air conditioner. I looked out the only thing I see, is his house lit up like Christmas. Tool man's got a generator going. This pissed me off for some reason, I guess I was jealous. This morning I actually enjoyed the 7:30 wake up call from his edger. I like a good Saturday workday and the sites and sounds that go with it.

Stormy night

These are regular shots - no photoshop or filters.

We had some really bad lightning and thunder last night.

I took these pictures after everything was over. 

Power was out for 2 hours.

Are we winning?

I've heard it discussed on Fox news, talk radio, and on the internet so much over the last years that I am completely numb to the question. Most of the hosts and the guests have their own agenda and it's all just a bunch of white noise at any given day in the background as I go about my life. I don't know if we are winning or not. It seems to depend on your definition so I never give it much thought, except for those rare segments where they use the word "draft".

Last night, during one of those quiet father/daughter conversations that I wouldn't take a million dollars for, she asked me if we were winning the war. Time seemed to stand still as she waited for my answer. We had been talking about 9-11 some and she was asking me about children in Iraq and if they were going to tear down those buildings again. Suddenly the white noise that I have grown to ignore was now demanding an answer. I wanted the answer to be accurate and honest. Perhaps most important was explaining it on a 7 yr old level.

Honest but simple has always served me well with her. I told her that I really didn't know because it was so far away but that a lot of good and bad people had died and that I hoped we would win soon. The satisfaction that I hoped to hear in her voice, at the well thought out answer I provided, was immediately replaced with questions number 2.

"Would you or N ever have to be in a war?"

I can't remember how I answered question 2, I'm worried it wasn't honest or simple.

Strawberry Lemonade

Last night I made strawberry lemonade. It's a good summertime drink. I used country time lemonade and then added some juice from a lemon. I cut up some strawberries and put it all in a glass with some ice. I found out that the key is to let the strawberries sit in the drink for a while to really let the flavor come out. It's something I plan on making again before the summer is out.

Olympics 2008

I really like video montages and so called "fluff pieces". For instance, 5 minutes before the 7th game of the world series, they usually recap the first 6 games and give you some under-story to really build up the drama. This video is enough to get me excited about watching the gymnastics this year. Great music, great voice over from the coach, I could do without the commentator chit-chat but other than that the first half of this is awesome. I don't know where NBC gets the music for these, they probably have the resources to make their own.

DMV / Tax Collector Runaround

One bit of good news regarding the truck situation. There's a $550 tag on it that I should be able to get some credit on. I call the vehicle tax collector. Yep, just come up here and we will use your drivers license to give you your money back on the remaining months. Should be $250, SWEET.

I get to their office. The lady I talked to is not there. I speak with another lady. Older, more seasoned. As a side note, I'm sure I don't have to go into much detail on these folks. If you've ever been to get your tag renewed somewhere, you know what I'm dealing with. Most of them are pissed off most of the time. This lady lets out a witch like laugh when I tell her I'm there to get my $250. Sir you have to have the physical tag for us to give you the credit. I'm not happy but what she's saying makes sense. 2 days later I go to the vehicle graveyard where the biggest financial mistake of my life sits. Luckily they have the tag ready for me and it's mine with only a signature. Surprisingly it's the easiest part of this process.

Later that day I proudly walk in with my tag because I know this will be quick now that I have what is required. A new "teller" grabs the tag, types in her computer and hands me a receipt that says, "credit voucher... $250". Um, WHERES THE CASH!
"Oh, we don't give you cash, you will just have the credit for next year when you renew the tags" I say nothing, grab the voucher and walk back to my van.

2 weeks later...
Guess what, its time to renew the tags on the van. $32.50. At this rate it will take about 8 years to get my $250 worth of credit but Im past being mad about the money at this point. I'm out that way one day so I stop in. I don't have the credit receipt or the renewal info so Im taking a little risk of another waste of time, but I'm thinking they probably have all this in the computer. NOPE, in fact if you loose the voucher, you loose the credit. In 2008... What, unbelievable.

More days later, I go back with all the paperwork. Okay that will be $14.00. I'm so mad I can't speak. .. Well this year we have new plates and you can't use the credit for that part.

I leave once again, and I'm realizing I've seen these people too many times in one month. I want to burn the building down, but I get in my car and leave, without using any of my credit.

Banzai The Plunge

So far, this has proved to be a good purchase. The kids love it... and when I say kids, I'm talking about most of the neighborhood. The weight limit is 200 lbs. I can tell you there is a little wiggle room in that specification.

Sunrays & Geocahing

I walked out of Kroger the other night and was greeted with this first scene. I've never seen a sunset quite like this one. I think it was a unique time when the sun was just about to disappear and some clouds were aligned just right to create the effect shown in the picture. There were two other rays that I couldn't get in the picture, both in symmetrical on each side. Pretty cool!

N and I have discovered geocaching.. Think of it as your own personal National Treasure. It's a lot more fun than it seems and although we used the gps on my phone, you can enter the coordinates on googlemaps and print the results before your hunt. Basically you find lat/long coordinates to a treasure that another geocacher has left behind. This one was left in a camo tuperware container. Once you find it there are several low cost items inside and a log book to record how's found it. You can take something from the box but if so, the rules are to put something you've brought back in it. We can't wait to do it again! Check it out at http://www.geocaching.com/

3 strikes and they're out

Encounter in the Kroger parking lot with my bosses manager - strike 1
Incident with the barbasol (non senstive skin) - strike 2
Last night - strike 3

I'm getting ready for work last night, wife is putting up the garage sale stuff, gets to hot, passes out twice before I can get her to the couch. She's hurt her hip/back and in some really bad pain. A decision to go to the ER is hanging in the balance. The kids are getting nervous so I have several things I'm juggling at once. I call my boss, tell her I'm not coming in and why. She says: "well okay, just make sure you bring an excuse from the hospital."

If this had been strike 1, I would have let it go. It's strike 3 and I'm done. I don't really blame her, it's the management that she reports too. All in all it's probably still a good job, but I have my limits and am moving on to other plans I have.

In an effort to end things the right way, I plan to deliver my no-notice in person. I'll report back how it goes.

Wife is okay after cooling off and resting. She will have to get her hip/back checked out soon, I'm concerned she overdid it and may have some damage.

The Yard Sale

Before I comment on the title topic, a quick note on the Pizza Shop. I made my first delivery to the fire department this week. 1 thin crust pepperoni - an excellent choice. I pull up to the station and park carefully to avoid blocking the red giant in case there is - a fire somewhere. I get out and walk towards it noticing all the things you would expect, ladders, tall boots waiting to be filled, and a small office type area. No one is outside so I finish my close up tour of the engine and try to get a look inside the station but it's dark and I can't see anything. I do notice a flicker of light which seems to be coming from a big screen tv. I open the door and reveal the ultimate "guys room". It's a big screen all right, with 7 plush brown lazy boy recliners. At least 2 refrigerators and a kitchen. A nice setup and I'm sure they deserve it.

I don't understand my wife sometimes. She spent all week going thru boxes so that we can participate in the neighborhood wide yard sale. I understand going to get change at the bank but do we really need a roll of quarters, nickels, & dimes??? I don't want to mess with a yard sale transaction that can't be settled with paper currency. There are only 2 reasons to have a yard sale in my opinion 1) make a little money, 2) get rid of some junk. My wife just left the house to go yard selling which will cost a little money and bring some more junk. So I am here tending the sale trying to sell junk and make a little money quicker than she will replace it and spend it and I don't like it one bit and this is not the first time it's happened. It happens everytime she wants to have a yard sale. So, here is what I'm going to tell her when she gets back....



Nothing.

Yesterday was our 16th anniversary. I'm finally putting something into action that I have know for a long time. It's just not worth it. It's not worth the fight. Women are different and previous history tells me how this argument will end. So I didn't say anything to her when she left and will not when she returns - no matter what she brings back. This is my opportunity to complain. Here on my blog.

2 mexican women just asked me how much 2 books were. I told them 50 cents thinking they would pay 1 dollar total. They dropped the books immediately and looked at me with disgust and left with nothing. I hate yard sales.

Las Delicias

This is the "All n 1" with a side of guacamole from a restaurant that I normally wouldn't go into but a customer wanted to go so we went. It's really good! Today is my second trip.

Winner of "Best Guacamole in Memphis" several years in a row. They make their own tortillas and sell them in a separate store next door. There was some form of rotissere meat within view of the kitchen, the manager told me it's slow-cooked pork. And 20 seconds later a 1/2 fajita size sample came out of nowhere for my approval. They just gained some points with me. The all-n-one has steak pork, chicken and cheeses with onions and peppers. The best part is that it's a pleasant surprise from the normal mexican place. No speedy gonzales, they don't even have chips with salsa. It's inexpensive, close to work, and indeed Delicias as the name says.

Friday night

11:30pm - finally going to bed... it's still storming outside... it's raining relentlessly... again.
I'm tired from battling this storm's predecessors and the only thing keeping me awake is the continuous flashes of light. It's as if there is someone important outside my window and the paparazzi is taking pictures.

Rewind 5.5 hours....

I am handed (2) 5's and (10) 1's before I get 5 steps inside. It's the usual bank used for change at the first of the night but the speed at which it is thrust at me makes it seem more like a drug transaction instead. 30 seconds later, my manager hands me my first marching orders of the night. It's a double; credit cards for both which is good for tips but bad for monsoons because the paperwork gets too wet.

The tornado threats from the afternoon are moving north and things are starting to drain off and dry out. 2 months ago, I sold my GPS on ebay in exchange for paying the utility bills and I think the cable bill. Besides I didn't really need it, it was a necessity when I delivered pizzas last year but I didn't really need it for my day job.

I'm sitting there in my vehicle, the aroma of a works, a thin crust rustic meats, and a 2 orders of cheese bread are replacing the oxygen. It would be so nice to grab a piece, but these pies have other destinations. Destinations.... Crap.... I forgot to check the road book inside that tells me how to get these boxes to their new home. (this road book is not that great and I really don't see how non GPS drivers get it done - it's not a lazy thing, it's a matter of remembering all the streets for 2 deliveries) I'm still in the truck - I glance at the order time on the receipts - I'm 45 minutes in and I know it will cost me a least another 10 minutes if I go inside with the mob of workers around "the book". I'm scrambling looking at the names of these 2 streets I'm to deliver to.... PANIC, it's nothing I've heard of and suddenly I remember that my phone has GPS capabilities. I text message in the data and I have a route. I find out soon that it is using cell towers instead of a satellite to navigate and only gets you close. I'm fine for these 2 deliveries but it's not going to work all night in the dark.

"ON STAR Ready!" the lady says as I press the button. Turns out I can get unlimited turn by turn directions sent to the truck for $9.99 a month. It's not as good at the Garmin, but gets me thru the night and finally proves worthy of being in the vehicle.

I'm returning from my 3rd delivery of the night. I glance at the sky and it's clear mother nature is not done yet. Inside things are even busier than before but there are several drivers in front of me in the queue. I get to work the oven for 5 minutes, which I don't mind. It's basically cutting the pizzas and putting them in boxes. It's a virtual menu for me as I make decisions on which one I want to take home at the end of the night for half price or possibly free depending on the manager that is on duty.

2 drivers walk in the back door, soaked! and complaining, issuing a few choice words about the weather... the manager looks at them and then towards the front where the customers are but she is too busy arranging ingredients on the make line to scold them. I'm gathering my next double order and putting them into their portable green oven bags. Another driver comes in and says it's the end of the world, with a laugh. It's clear to me that he knows little about the true end of the world but there is little time to think about that. I look toward the front window to get my first glance at the "end of the world" and I can't see much from the back of the store, only enough to tell the color is not right. The floor in the back is very wet and slippery but I manage to balance my customer's diner and get the door open.........

Yep, it's a color I've never seen before. It looks like a scene out of a western movie because it's so orange and yellow. The rain is as heavy as I've ever seen and I can tell there is no waiting til it lets up. My delivery driver instinct immediately kicks in and I move as fast as I can toward my truck. Every stitch of clothing is drenched by the time I get in. I can feel the water starting to ease into my socks slightly as it penetrates my shoes. "On Star Ready!" ... "Mr. Pinson would you like driving directions"... YES.. 10175 Acree Woods Dr.... The company that can unlock your doors if you leave your keys in and even tell you how many people are in the car with you, can not download the route, when it is raining this hard... They try but it fails... I guess it works like satellite TV. I use my phone as my only backup plan.. the cell tower does its job.

I'm in a good area of town and I remember a delivery to this house once before. It was a good tip. They were having a party.. ordered about 6 pizzas.. This time it was 3 pizzas and I'm parked on the street because even though it's like Katrina v 2.0 outside, I don't like driving into peoples driveways. I gather the food and step my left foot out. The curb current is flowing like the Spring River and my entire shoe is submerged. Both socks are now infiltrated fully and I realize I'm not going to dry off until I get home.

While returning to the store, I check the radar from my phone and confirmed that the weather was indeed right on top of me and was moving South to North instead of West to East. Most of the night was more of the same.... Here are a few more highlights...

- The back door now has a new 4-digit code entry access. The air condition system is right next to it, which is not a problem unless it's raining. Guess where the blade directs the rain water. It takes about 3 seconds to unlock the door which seems like water boarding on this night.

- A minority ordered 4 pizzas and was across town... a long drive. He signs the credit card receipt and tips $0 on a $40 order. He mumbles something I can not understand fully about the weather and I leave hopping I never see this guy again.

- The OnStar works with more consistency as the night goes on but the lengthy chit chat from the representative taking the info only makes me miss my real GPS more. I try to rationalize that I could get one on ebay for about $150, but that's about a year and a half of OnStar. If I can find one for half that I will do it.

- I found myself glad that I made the decision to drive the truck instead of the van tonight. We had some trouble with the van battery and the cable had to be replaced ($2.50) but I didn't fully trust the battery recharge until some more time has gone by. I need to get rid of the truck and the payments, but there is not an easy way to do this yet. In more ways than one, I will be paying for this bad decision for some time.

- A knock on the door of a nice place.. I notice "As for me and my house we will serve the Lord" inscribed above the door. A minority opens it and says "do they charge for the tip on here" as she looks at the receipt. The receipt shows a $1.50 delivery charge, which keeps PJs from having to pay the $1.50 they give us for a gas charge. Technically it's not a tip, and I'm hoping she will understand this without me having to explain it to her. She says "let me get you something for your trouble".. She comes back with a 5 and (2) ones. NICE!

- I delivered to a nice place again. White folks. The lady and her mom invite me in so they can get the money. We are not supposed to do this but I agree and am greeted by their Yorky. I almost slip and fall trying to avoid not crushing him under my very wet, very big shoes. She tips me $2 which is below the average. I assume this is because delivery's were running an hour and she may have thought it to be my fault.

- I get a web order. Sometimes they tip online when they place the order so that decision is made before hand. $60 order, $10 tip immediately before I even leave the store. It's a new neighborhood, OnStar couldn't find it, cell phone couldn't find it. So I called the customer. He's trying to give me directions and it's raining hard and the automated OnStar direction voice continues to jabber incorrect directions because I dont' know how to cancel it. I make the delivery and they are happy the pizza is hot.

The most eventful night so far without question.

This statue was out in front at LAs Drs office. I'm not sure what it is but I thought it was worth taking a picture of it.

Godtube Video

The last half of the above video has some powerful scripture references. As you know from my earlier posts, I have a new fascination with the stars so naturally I like the reference at 1:54.

Music is from Armageddon score which seems fitting. (T.Rabin)
