Insurance class 101. heh.

went to the state of texas. whoop-dee-doo.
Yeah, the First Baptist Church in Dallas had a neon sign...
This was the hotel. very nice. and big.
A random car that had it's window knocked out. yeah, we still parked in the same parking lot. and what did the car have in the backseat? phonebooks.... f'in crackheads...
This building was outlined with green neon...
the view from the rd at night - facing i guess it was south.
The baptist have a credit union? damn...
Another nighttime shot from the room. the weird colors in the sky i think was the tinting on the window....
The sunrise somewhere in.... texas? Louisiana? i forget. we were still on out way when i snapped the pic.
The skyline as we arrived in the city.
This was kinda an odd shot when i looked over th epics later... the building's reflection was blurry - except in the very middle.... strange...
The tram that i guess circled the city? i was told it was $2.50 to ride all day...
The view at daytime looking east out of the room. we were on the 29th floor so we had a decent view. and at night it looked great :) well friday night looked better than saturday night for some reason :-

Fuckfuckfuck. 12 over in a

Fuckfuckfuck. 12 over in a 70. fuck the police.

90 outside of shreiport

And 10 to go :-/

Trying to leave texas :-/

Well. We left in a 15 passenger van (3 of us did) thursday night at 9:30 pm We stopped not far inside alabama for gas, the other side of alabama for matt to drive, the other side of miss. For gas and I started driving. I drove all the way through lousiana and when we hit tx. We stopped for a 30 min breakfast, driver change and gas. At this point, suzie had driven from 9:30 to the 1:30, matt had driven from 1:30 to 4:30,and I drove from 4:30 to 7:30. Suzie picks back up, we drive until 11 am est (10 cst) and we arrive at the hotel... PHEW!

Btw, I had slept from the ga/al line to 30 mins west of birmingham (about an hour), matt slept from 4:30 to 11 and suzie slept about 2h of matts driving and 2.5h of mine.

So the trip took us 13 hours plus 30 mins for breakfast. Its now 11:30 est and we were planning to leave over an hour ago... But we were talked into staying til 1!!! Lets see... 1 + 13h = 3am getting home? :'( oh that's to like conyers, I've gotta ride with matt to barry's (30-45 mins) to get my car to drive 15 mins to my house. 4 am. Fuck this....

only few will understand.. and even then they will still point and laugh

i've been pinging google.com since like december 30th....

Ping statistics for 64.233.167.99:

Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:

i guess this means i have a pretty decent QoS - i mean only 0.6946695% have been dropped. just over 1/2 a percent. the internet will drop out for at least 1 second every 3 minuets. teeheehee

SWIFT Trucking Co. - Sure Wish I Finished Training.....

first day on the road by herself, woman about drives over my dad's truck... it was a very low speed wreck. he's stopped in the turn lane to turn left onto the interstate, this big rig's getting off the interstate and turning left. the trailer of the truck drags about 15' across his hood, he's slowly drug backwards into the car behind him and his truck finally act as a wheel chock and stops the big rig.......... he's fine but I'm sure his blood pressure was 3x healthy levels, and I'm sure there were enough slang words vocalized to make a prostitute blush :P

Mine catching some air

I f'ed myself.

Haha, i bet none of you get gas mileage this bad! (actually i had just cranked up, and drove across the street, and idled for 10 or so mins, so i my avg kept going down.... tho i never got it above 18 for the next 15 miles....)


This is my brake pad that has been sounded SOOOO bad for a few weeks now. Note kids: if you hear a noise, check on it ASAP. my rotor is now pretty fucked.


The thin pad was on the backside of the rotor. the thicker one was on the front.


Now compare the front and back to A new pad.... yeah. BIIIG difference.

my new years resolutions....

Lifestyle:
Sell the house and get another one (dump the equity into another house of similar size/price)
Get ahead on car and mortgage payments (if not pay them off)

Health:
16" Bicep (currently is at 13") [edit: apparently at rest it's 13", when working the arms it's 14" - so adding 2 more inches should be fairly easy]
Keep my body weight under 175 (unless it's pure muscle mass - currently i'm 165lbs)
Bench press my body weight (currently I'm somewhere between 115-120) [edit: i just realized that i'm doing sets of 110 with little problem - my max is prob a lil bit above the 120 mark... like guessing right now would be 125-135 range - in high school i maxed at 140, i thought i had dropped off a good bit since then, maybe not...]
Lose the love handles (they're not bad... but i dun want them)
Six-pack of abs (you can kinda see 2 of em... and a mini-keg)
Pearly Whites - top and bottom (they're not straight or white, but hella better then they were this time last year)

and above all.... find a damn wife.

maybe setting a schedule may help.

first, my change of job/ additional income:
sign up for the Insurance class by 01/08
pass the class by 02/02
pass the test by 02/23
become trained on what to do by Barry by 03/30
receive my license by 04/13 (6 week delivery)
make at least 5 sales by 05/30
make at least 25 sales by 06/30

if all the above comes true before July 4th - then i should have earned at least $10,000 off sales alone. 25% is going towards fireworks and alcohol and I'm throwing 1 HELL OF A party :)

I'm trying to remember... me jon and jeremo went to Alabama and bought almost 2 paper sacks full of bottle rockets.. we collectively spent like $75 - and got... damn... 15? 20? 25? more? grosses of bottle rockets... they were like $8 a gross - but buy one get one free. so if we bought $56 in bottle rockets, then that was 14 grosses - or over 2,000 bottle rockets :) now lets say same deal, same price: $1000 in bottle rockets is 125x2 250 grosses - or 36,000 bottle rockets. is that even legal to transport? (well, into ga no, but still).

and evidently it only takes $30 in golden grain to make 10x the amount of jello shooters it takes to get 5 people drunk... so 50 drunk people for $30? Woot!
Buckcherry - Crazy Bitch - good song. hot chicks :) hehe just more projector fun....



this was a very yellow explorer. i just found it interesting.... that's really about all...



look terri, see, it says to boil for 45 mins! or you can microwave it for 35 mins!



muhahahahahhaha.... Golden Grain.... 190 proof (95% alcohol) this was the warning label on the front.... don't worry we only made like 54 jello shooters.... and i still have i think 43 of em left in the fridge :P - how it was made: 1 package of jello, 1 cup boiling water, 1/2 cup golden grain (or everclear - but the store was out). somehow we figured that each cup was equal to 1.5 shots of 40% vodka... but now that number seems wrong. evidently drunken math can be a little off.....
