The favorite meal of the reliable teens

Our 2 reliable teens and the “son by proximity” all like the way Dad whips up on the charcoal grill. Thanks to my friends at Tenuta’s I took home some cube steak yesterday and lovingly prepared it on the grill. This, my friends is a sure fire way to get the attention of the boys, [...]

Looking forward to Halloween

The Mrs and I made the trip to our local Wally mart last night and we are fully stocked with sweets. The lineup includes, Kit kat, snickers, milk duds, hershey bars, reese’s peanut butter cups, and butterfingers. As sweet as I am I should just pass out kisses but the Mrs has an exclusive deal [...]

The inattentive driver early detection device

If you look carefully below the back bumper you will see my IDEDD. This unit was strategically placed so as to alert me if the person behind me was busily engaged in a cell phone conversation or similar activity. Several years ago I removed the device for cleaning and was rear ended the very next [...]

The power of a Big mac

Just when you think you are tight with someone, and the tests prove it, that particular someone (who shall remain nameless) makes a late night food run and buys the very last Big mac that the local Mickey D’s has. Apparently he got the last order of fries too.

proof that I am loved

Last saturday on sweetest day I received a most thoughtful gift. Knowing that I was in need of some new sleep pants the reliable Mrs found a pair of Guinness print ones. I must say that they are quite striking, only those that know me VERY WELL should ask to see them modeled.

Be nice to people on the way up

Words that must seem foreign to Paul Teutul Sr. The trip back down will be hard for someone like Sr, having alienated so many people with his obnoxious self centered style he no doubt will fall hard. The custom bike business wont last forever but apparently Sr thinks it will. He continues to spend money [...]

Strong personality

I was payed, what I now view as, a compliment the other day. A very wise older Gentleman that I know, stated that I had a “strong personality”. I have never viewed myself in those terms but after pondering it a while I will have to agree with him.  He is much smarter than me anyways [...]

The cost of mediocrity

Something that never gets mentioned in all this wage slashing and cost cutting. Mediocrity costs a company money. If your customer calls and cant get a problem fixed they start looking harder at you competition, that few pennies they may have saved with you starts to seem trivial, call me crazy but that cant be [...]

You can tell when people love what they do.

The reliable wife and I had the pleasure of meeting some folks at an RV show this weekend. During our window shopping we were engaged in conversation by a gentleman that worked for one of the manufacturers. This man was a natural for his line of work, he was engaging without being pushy and obviously [...]

I was right all along.

I got the heads up on this little tidbit from the Reliable wife. According to the “The Oprah’s” Dr Oz some of you gals are falling behind. The good Doctor says that 4 times a week will keep your man around longer. Now aside from the fact that 4 times a week will keep a man [...]
