Or will be here on Sat. and Sun. guys. The wife, the kids and I are so looking forward to our visit with him. He's in town for a little while so you guys should shot him a PM to see where exactly he will be so maybe you guys can have a drink or something. I'll be sure to TRY and get plenty of pics but with that 5th of Crystal Head Vodka upstairs, not sure my picture taking ability will be exactly up to par. I know Saturday is Halloween and I know it's short notice but for any of you guys local your more than welcome to stop in for a drink.

    Wish more of you guys could have came down. I got in around noonish, and kicked back with my buddy all day. His family and I had an awesome lunch at Ledo's pizza, awesome food. Wish I had snapped a pic but the food was outstanding.

    Got to spend some time in the theater, that paint job looks awesome in person. Got a nice demo of the JVC in his room watching Transformers, and everything sounds/looks simply amazing in here. This is one nice HT.

    Afterward we got to drinking the Krystal Head vodka with just a hint of Cran-Grape Juice. Rob fired up the grill for some awesome BBQ, nice tasty Tbone, sweet potatoe with cinnamon/brown sugar, corn on cob, and some shrimp to top it off.

    Also got to meet some cool neighbors(one a former Marine), helped pass out candy, see Bizill I work man. An awesome trip once again. Wish you guys could have came out. I don't leave until the 8th so let's plan something for those that are near, that would be awesome.

    One cool as heck family, highly recommend you guys come down and join us.

    haha. so you DID go to work! wish i could have hung out with you guys. instead i had to shut down evaporative coolers to turn on heaters, get **** water from tenants on my pants from clogged toilet, and fix a shower diverter.

    then it was time to come home and take the kids out trick or treating. is this a dying out holiday or what? anyway, they still got a **** ton of candy that you know who, will be eating the bulk of.

    ...mmmmm, sweet potato and cin/brown sugar....

    Okay, for all those peeps out there that always say "pics or it didn't happen", well here are a few. Wish I would have gotten more but we were having such a good time I completely forgot to take pics, not only that, I'm sure the Vodka had something to do with it.

    Lets see, the day started when Sherard showed up around noon and the first thing he said was "I'm hungry bro!" So we went by and picked up my wife from work and went to Ledo's pizza. After lunch we dropped my wife off back at work then headed to the costume store to grab a costume for my boy. Well needless to say that after going to the costume store, Target and then back to the costume store something I thought would only take an hour ended up being a 3 hour deal, well at least it seemed to take that long. On the way home we picked up dinner which buy the way Sherard footed the bill the entire weekend bro which I can't thank-you enough for.

    Well, did I mention all the eye candy that was out and about Saturday, holy hell. Anyways, got back home and fired up the H/T room for a bit and gave Sherard a demo of Transformers. I must say I think he was pretty impressed to say the least. Not really sure why though, both of us are damn near running the same gear. Again, after the demo we broke the seal on the fifth of Crystal Head Vodka I picked up. Not sure if anyone every heard the story of when Sherard purchased a bottle of the Vodka but a few months ago he purchased a bottle and had it shipped to me to ship to him. Well thats what I did and well, he received an empty $60 Bottle of Crystal Head, the actual Vodka never made it past customs. Well after this weekend, and I think Sherard would agree, I see why it never made it past customs. That was the best bottle of imported Vodka I've ever had, highly recommended if anyone likes Vodka.

    Well after quite a few drinks, I swear my glass had a hole in the bottom of it, everytime I turned around I was filling it up:D, we sent the wife and kids out to trick or treat and we sat around passing out candy. After a while I got dinner cooked on the grill and in the rain which I'm sure Sherard has pictures of the dinner we ate, it was off to the H/T room for some good ole Rock Band 2, that could be a topic by itself, man we were laughing our asses off. After my neighbors left and the wife and kids went upstairs and passed out Sherard and I gamed for a bit but mostly just talked shop.

    Got up Sunday morning and the wife had to go get me some coffee, my pot broke, which by the way bro, ordered 2 pots today as well as picked up a cheap coffee maker at Wal-mart until the new pots get here. My wife cooked this time and make us all one hell of a breakfast which I took some pictures of then we just sat around and BS'd for a bit before Sherard hit the road. All-in-all we had one hell of a weekend and looking forward to our next visit. Until then bro, safe travels and hope to see ya again before ya head home and once again, Thanks for one hell of a good time as usual. BTW, Jen wants pics of your dogs new outfits. LMAO!!!!!

    Oh yeah the first two pics are of Sherad singing it up on RB2, the 3rd pic is part of the breakfast my lovely wife cooked, 4th pic is of my neighbor Andrew (left) and of Sherard holding the empty Vodka box and the last pic is of my boxer Zoey waiting for something to hit the floor in the kitchen.

    on a serious note, i see you got that ceilin' fan workin' double-time. how much does that affect or drown out the good sounds? prolly not much would be my speculation. you probably have the volume turned up so damn high, it would make no difference.

    Hell no, not sure my liver could take that much abuse over a week's time. Sherard is about 1.5 hours from me, he has meetings all week which end on Thursday so he's trying to get back down here for the weekend.

    This is a tad bit late, but Rob and his wife cooked up a feast while I was visiting. Some awesome steak, shrimp, corn, sweet potatoe with tons of butter/cinnamon and brown sugar. The food was amazing. And to wash it all down Vodka/Cran-Grape.
