Good morning box :rolleyes:

Today begins another day of searching for an elusive supplier of flow controllers that you can adjust with hex keys. I’m open to suggestions if y’all know of anything.

I never understood having sex at a concert, for several reasons.
  1. Ticket prices are too damn high nowadays. I want to pay attention to the show.
  2. If I want to hear the music while I'm having sex, that's why I have a bedside iPod dock.
  3. If I want to have sex outdoors, the last place I'm going to pick is a crowded amphitheater.
  4. If I want to have sex in a public place, I want to have the thrill factor of possibly being seen, not a guarantee of it.

All your FT friends congratulated you.

Oh, of course. No complaints there whatsoever. I'm more talking about the people that I worked with in ACY for the last ~5 years. I probably sent out 15 recommendation requests last night...I'll say now that I think I'll get two back.

Some unsolicited advice for the box this a.m. from someone who grew up in a beach community:

The idea of sex on a beach (not the drink) is far better than the practical application of said event. Especially when it's windy. :rolleyes:

No pomp or ceremony over #59,000.

I finally received my lists of existing territory clients from the new job. This going back to work thing is strange...maybe I should go thru that list.

Commenting on milestone posts in the course of posting #8,300.

Just got an e-mail from a client of my on the side business saying they've been receiving payments but no orders show up in the software... I go in and look and they've been receiving payments with no orders showing up for the last three months and they're just now letting me know. :rolleyes:

Huuuuge +1. I've had weather force me off the beach and back to the car.

Chiropractor, please? Table 1.

Sure, because one billing cycle is odd. Two is when you scratch your head. Three is when you call someone.

Just finished a two hour meeting with prospective clients. While everyone was doing blah blah blah, I was thinking what aircraft to purchase next on AM.

That's just kinky. :rolleyes:

Aye; she was reconstructed and now sits gloriously in the same place. I figure if I don't use that shelf to help me get up anymore, there is far less chance of it flying off and hitting a wall. But the comment reminds me that I need to remove the wings from it in preparation for packing.

I take it these are in a non-secure area so you need the hex key? It may be worth checking into but when I surfed past Pitchmen last night, one guy had this plastic cover with a pad lock on it to place over your outdoor faucet so people can't get to it while you aren't home.

So what have they been shipping, air?! :p

Hopefully Billy and Sully gave a :td: to that. I would think that the theft of my garden hose would rank higher than the theft of my water. Besides which, what kind of paranoid dingbat would feel the need to spend money to protect their faucet? Unless you live in a really bad neighborhood, you shouldn't be leaving stuff out anyway...or if you live in an active adult community and you have angered your neighbor.

Barnes and Noble has switched to that pocketed air stuff instead of foam peanuts. Because, you know, a company that makes an existence on a medium that exists from the destruction of trees needs to be as green as possible. I give the air pockets to my mother, and she hordes them for wrapping Christmas gifts.
