    That picture was the last piece of the puzzle.

    Yup, looks a little like downs syndrome... which would explain a lot...

    OUCH! That's going to leave a mark.

    Sorry about derailing my own thread, but that was absolutely needed.

    Another date is scheduled this weekend. I'll be putting this one on American Express.

    Why not top it off with a night at the Holiday Inn Express. Then, we will know that you've made it.

    That's great!!!

    And, reminds me of an incident that happened today.
    I grabbed a set of Allen Wrenches in the shop to put a shim in so that parts (snap rings) would flow a little better. One of the skilled trades said to me... "Hey... what are you doing... we have people on layoff".

    I was torn. I'm an engineer (management). By contract, I have to stop and wait 30 minutes to get the proper trade to do the work. But, its a 2 minute job.

    On one hand, I appreciate his point and the fact that he is loyal to his "bargaining unit". On the other hand, its a 2 minute job.

    I stopped and waited 30 minutes for "Machine Repair" to do this job. Even though, deep down, I completely agree with the guy and that laying-off is really just a result of out-sourcing work away from the UAW.

    Nothing like holding back progress so a UAW guy can keep his job...

    Hey Ron you would know this, doesn't Walmart allow you spend the night in their parking lot if you want? Just trying to come up with a backup plan if Holiday Inn Express doesn't take Amex.

    Jeesh... I haven't looked for a place to park with my date since.... I moved out of my parents house at the age of 18. Sorry. Can't help you.

    Enough about moving out of my parents house. If moving out of my parents house early left me looking like yourself I'm never moving.

    Good grief guys!

    Ron, you must be a sick, twisted individual if you keep coming back for more of this. With Sona all but gone, I don't think there's a single person on this board who isn't sick of you.

    I can only speculate what kind of mental deficiency you possess that makes this unfiltered and unwavering torrent of hatred a positive thing in your mind. Are you so desperate for attention that you must stoop to being ridiculed, insulted, and vilified on an internet forum? What keeps bringing you back here?

    As BL has demonstrated in the past few pages, you are no longer anonymous on this board. The outpouring of hatred that occurs whenever you post is not directed at your avatar, it is directed at you, as a person. We hate you, your personality, not just your words on a screen; it is beyond that. No. One. Likes. You.

    As a student of engineering, I can only pray that I never encounter someone like you in person in my field.

    And BTW, I would have used the damn allen keys myself. Screw your **** unions and the horse they rode in on.

    What? You didn't see the picture? Haven't been paying attention? It's all of the above...

    I smell a thread closing a'comin'. Before the inevitable ; let me state that you're all losers. Each and everyone of you. Thank you! Good night!

    Closed threads only result as a thread full of misinformation and factless based insults. There is neither of that in this thread.

    NMS.... do you feel better now? I can't help but think your rant was just a reflection of yourself (spewing hate, etc). I'm ok with everything I post on this forum. Your post is just a reflection of your inner-self.

    Just wondering, you're not the guy who was living in his parents basement well into his late 20's right? :o

    I agree. If it wasn't so long, it would be sig material. :D

    Or you could quote the whole thing and then remove the text, leaving only the "view post" link. I dunno if this will actually work or not, I just thought of it in the shower.

    Glad you guys like it :)

    EDIT

    yeah, open a new tab to your Control Panel and click on edit sig. Then click on the quote post button in the first tab, copy the text that comes up in the post new message window into your sig box on tab 2 and remove all the text you don't want. Confused? :)
