Thoughts on the Day

  • I saw a Tesla car on the road today for the first time.
    • It’s so nice to see someone supporting the Kentucky coal industry.
  • Never pass up an opportunity to have a good breakfast.
    • A lot of people were nibbling at granola bars this morning while I tucked into a big breakfast burrito.
  • Things I love to hear during the morning training briefing #121 – “This is the last day for this, and we don’t want to turn in ammunition, so shoot all this up, OK?”
  • To paraphrase Greg Hahn, today I tried to be swift, silent, and deadly.  Unfortunately, I was slow, noisy, and stupid.
    • Sneaky bastards shot me before I even knew they were there.
  • Girlie Bear is at a sleepover with five or six of her closest friends.  I thanked the mother of the family that’s hosting her and said I’m glad it’s not me doing it.
    • Seriously, I’d rather run at men with guns and flash-bang grenades than spend a night locked in a house with a bunch of teenagers.

    “…with a bunch of teenagers.”

    It’s even worse when they’re tweener or early teenage girls. Although it can be amusing to hear them talk when they forget that you’re there.

      Oh yes,I’ve learned to keep an ear open to the conversations in the back seat when I’m taking her and her friends somewhere. It never hurts to do a little intelligence gathering.
