    Indeed so. That's why I cannot stand neglect and abuse of such animals.

    Alcohol abuse. Was at my brothers funeral and it just made me realize how many of my family members have really screwed up their lives with alcohol abuse. I will not succumb to that crap. I refuse to.

    Fools gold,lol. Technically that is not a rant.

    Serious question what’s it like to work 14 hours?

    People who vomit in the sink of the locker room at the gym and do not tell the staff. My coworker just found this in the women's locker room. She spent the last two hours in a meeting so it could been sitting in there that long. This is a medical school, there is no excuse not reporting a health and sanitation hazard.

    Minnesota's new liberal Governor is proposing a tax on medical care, so you go to the Dr or have surgery or be hospitalized they want to tax a percentage of the cost.

    Headlights!!!

    Had custom headlights built for my truck a few years ago. Guy turned out to be a hack and the lenses fogged up from the inside. Bought some extra bulbs for them just in case.

    6 months later had another pair made by a reputable builder but wqs waiting for the current set to fail and they have lasted 3 years. Bulb finally went out, went to change it and the replacement bulbs are different, $70 pair of garbage bulbs.

    Have to switch everything out tomorrow, all the wiring, everything.

    Be nice to finally see them in the truck though.... just in time for mushrooms. Grrrrr....

    I can afford what ever I want but the log frame house built into a hill is not set up for a duct system of heating. I will rake off the upper plot in the rain Saturday.

    President Trump will be addressing the NRA National convention today, people who support 700,000 lives lost last year will claim that gun violence is epidemic and preventable and must be dealt with.:confused:

    I was wrong! Found the correct replacement bulbs with the new headlights installation stuff. Got them mixed up somehow.

    I ranted at myself all the way back home. I was tempted to just call it a telecommute day and pop a top.

    My friend that has spent that last five years fighting with brain cancer passed away peacefully in his home yesterday morning. His struggle is over, and though he will be missed by many, it is better for him now. My wife and I found out shortly after putting the kids to bed last night. Cancer sucks. The world lost a great man. He leaves behind his wife, daughter, and a son who is in his second year at West Point. Not looking forward to telling our kids about it when they get home from school today, this is the second friend we have lost to cancer in as many months.

    Sucks man, sorry for loss. I've lost half my dad's family including my dad to cancer. That cancer crap sucks.

    Damn! I just had to send an apology e-mail out to a company. They sent me an E-MAIL and it set me off when it shouldn't have. Pretty sure person reading it isn't paid enough. The second they replied, which was fast, I knew I'd been an ass. Eye roll. Saving grace, I bet they don't get too many apologies.
