trucks and trains
Took another truck in to the be fixed last week. This was my dad's truck that I was driving while mine was getting fixed. He bought it new in 1976. It currently has ~73k miles on it. Almost everything on it is original, apart from the stereo.
Anyway, despite the fact that it gets ~10 miles/gallon, he refuses to get rid of it, and likes to drive it when he's back here. It makes a nice back up vehicle though.
Going to chicago again monday. Just for a 2 day trip. They must love me there.
I haven't played any live poker for almost 2 weeks. I've just been too sick. I think my days are getting better finally, but I still have a terrible time trying to get to sleep at nite. I think I'm going to try some of the new sleeping drugs, because I am a huge believer in better living through modern chemicals.
The beast that is the poker table hoist has resurfaced. I had another brilliant idea to get it going that apparently Jeff had weeks ago that I poo-poo'd. Anyway, now it's my idea, so it's great. If I get this working, I'll be famous! Famous for having the most jerry-rigged device to store something on the planet.
