De plane,, De plane,,,,,


How many of you can make this statement?
“We were almost in a traffic accident with an airplane!”
Yea, yesterday as we were rounding the airstrip, I failed to see the Tropic flight taking off. I looked as I always do but I missed it. When we looked out the window all I saw was wheels and prop!
The pilot had even swerved to miss us!
There was an incident once where a plane's wheel hit the roof of a small truck. Scared the shit out the guy riding in the back!

Wholey shit that was close! So it just goes to show, even a professional stunt driver like myself has to be careful rounding the airstrip! I won’t do that again!

Then on into town.
GASP! The beer truck is gone! They were in Belize City re-loading the trailer and would not be back till night.
Good thing I was a boy scout as I always have cases stashed just for such an occasion.
And a good thing they will deliver. My beer locker will be replenished soon.

Over to Yoli’s for gossip beers.
Checked out some of the amazing woodworking going on at the shop by Reagan’s guys. If you are as bad working with wood as I am, it’s all amazing, but this stuff really stands out!
Heard one side of the battle between them and another business right there.
And bought some rib-eye steaks. Wha wha what? Rib-eyes? Yes, Reagan has come into a bunch of U.S. imported meat. Beef and pork. And he is selling it off at what I believe to be good prices. I bought 2 rib-eyes for 20bz. They look good to me. Now I have to buy a BBQ grill.


















Monkey Shuffle:

A "dance" that amounts to little more than standing in one place, making erratic movements meant to be suggestive, which instead make you look like you are coming in your pants.

If a monkey were convinced to dance, but not taught how to, his movements would be similar to a person performing the monkey shuffle.

Shelly: Is he trying to impress us?
Candy: It looks like he's having sex with an invisible, vertical couch.
Shelly: Can the monkey shuffle really be that physically demanding that he should be sweating?
Candy: I'm expecting my dad to show up and join in.
Shelly: We should stop. I'm beginning to think he's actually... you know, mentally challenged.
Candy: Is that... Drool? Why won't he stop looking at us?
Shelly: Oh my god, Candy, we need to get out of here right now!
Candy: Let me get my purse!
Shelly: LEAVE IT! JUST LEAVE IT BEHIND!

When you are at a railroad crossing, it is "Stop... Look... Listen". Maybe they should add that to the sign?

Nice pic of Mrs Barnacle

My first trip, I took a picture of that same sign. But we took the sign seriously!

Love the picture of Adriane!

I am not from Mt. Prospect or any of the other northwest suburbs as identified on your test thingy.

There's a Sign??? Where? One day we were turning the strip and I asked my Mayan helper, "is there a plane on the runway?" he said no as it flew by. He was right, it wasn't on the runway, it was in the air. I look for myself now.
