Christmas Can Finally Begin!!!

I finally got around to decorating to Our Christmas Tree (thanks to Brenda for the extra motivation) and More Importantly I finally got around to seeing The Office Christmas Edition 2006(my favorite episode)...we DVR'd it. You gotta love, "Bro's before Ho's." Is that a reference to Santa? I hope so. Ho Ho Ho.

Also their trip to "Asian Hooters" AKA "Benihana's" and Michael marking the Asian Girl's Arm.

Here's a pic of MY TREE. Enjoy...

Notice in the mirror in behind the Tree you can see us watching The Office on TV.

Take Egg Nog add Decorated Pre-Lit Artificial Tree & The Office-Christmas 2006 Edition and the rest make it "Time for Christmas!!!"

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL AND TO ALL A GOOD YEAR!!!

Brake Job & Brother in Law

The other day I noticed my brakes were making a squeeking noise. I knew I needed new brake pads but the number 1 rule of brakes or any car repair is never to go into a repair shop and tell them what you think is wrong with your car, because they will always find a bunch of more things wrong with your car and before you know it, you're taking out a 2nd on your home just to pay for all the repairs.

I went to "Discount Tires" to get my brakes looked at but when I saw their "Prices" on the Car Menu I couldn't resist.

The sign said, "Tire Rotation $4.95 per tire." I said to the guy behind the counter, "I'd like to rotate 1 tire for $4.95." He gave me a totally confused look. He then tried, unsucessfully, to describe why he couldn't rotate just 1 tire. I replied, "Well, if you can't rotate just 1 tire why do you charge per tire?" I asked, "Don't most people get all their tires rotated...why charge by the tire?"

Here's where it gets interesting...A little further down the price list they had "Brake Inspection - Free." In order for them to do a "Brake Inspection" they had to remove all the tires...so why couldn't they just shuffle the tires after the free brake inspection. I don't know...it doesn't matter.

Just as I suspected, by the time they were done with the "Free Brake Inspection" they found about $200 worth of "work I absolutely needed." I took their paper work and said, "Thanks but no thanks!"

I went and bought brake pads at the car parts store and Scott, Molly's finance, helped me install my new brakes and I saved a bundle and learned a valuable lesson. Be careful when people tell you about free "fill in the blanks"

Thanks Scott!!

Celebrate!!! My Favorite Word Finally Makes the Dictionary!!!

That's right!! "w00t" finally makes the dictionary and is given the distinction of "Word of the Year"
As many of of my Bro's and Sisses know I love the "Soulja Boy" song "Crank That". I found this version online...It's a Jewish version "Crank that Kosher Boy"
Enjoy!! and w00t w00t Hahla!!!

FREEZE TAG. YOU'RE IT!! "Double stamp no quitsies!"

How about an all new game “Blog Freeze Tag?” Old school style like the Morgan kids and Waite kids used to play. It’s just like regular “Blog Tag” except you must fulfill your tagging responsibilities BEFORE you post another entry on your blog.

Here’s how “Blog Tag” works for the newly christened bloggers out there. When you are “tagged” by someone you must post 6 Random/Interesting things about yourself on your blog then you must “tag” 6 other people and they must do the same and so on and so forth. One more rule…you cannot “tag” anyone who has been “tagged” in the last 14 days.

OK, here are my 6 Facts:

1. I have a serious aversion to “wire hangers” ever since I was a kid and saw the movie “Mommie Dearest.(1981)” To this day I can’t stand having my clothes on “wire hangers!”

2. When I go grocery shopping I like Paper & Plastic. I like my groceries put in Paper bags and I prefer to pay with Plastic. People who write paper check to pay for their groceries IRK me.

3. When people talked about Asparagus making your pee smell different I didn’t believe them until recently. Enough said about that.

4. Forrest Gump (1994) is one of my favorite movies. I watched for the first time in the hotel (PPV) the night before Brenda and I were married.

5. I love music from the 80’s. I don’t know if it’s my Dad rubbing off on me or what; but I love the 80’s like my Dad loves the 60’s.

6. Like Kip from Napoleon Dynamite (2004), I love Technology! If you can push, pull, click click it, I like it and have probably been online looking for the best deal on it!

OK here are the people I am “Tagging.” Uncle Mark, Uncle Sam, Aunt Mary & Gus, Hayley N., Morgan S.,& Tom M.

OK now, get with it and stick to it or get to it and stick with it or whatever!!

Peace,

I Am Somebody!!!

Here's a classic clip from one of our family's favorite movies. I remember watching the UNEDITED version and being SHOCKED that it was Rated "R". I thought his dog's name was STUPID. Ahh to be young and innocent again. Things are going to start happening to me NOW!! Check out this clip!!

Flying Under the RADAR

As many of my loyal bloggers have noticed I've been flying under the RADAR or as I like to say "Off the Grid" for the last week or so. That's right no cell phone, email, Internet & no plastic in my wallet...come to think of it, no wallet or even shoe laces. I was figuratively flying by the seat of my pants...under the RADAR of course.
The good news is I'm back on track and on the grid with almost all my tools including my PC, Cell Phone, Laptop, e-mail and my "Beautiful Co-Pilot" who stood by thru this entire trial by fire. She's my "Guardian Angel." I would also be totally ungrateful if I didn't thank my Mom & Dad for their continued support and encouragement! I would also like to thank all my Bro's & Sisses and Nieces & Nephews for all the prayers and kind thoughts. I love you guys a ton.
G-Ma & G-Pa Waite stop by sometime and check out my little piece of paradise in my B-Yard.

Love You All,
T-Man
