Parking lot bathroom

Filed under: Life Rants — treojohnny @ 1:11 am

OKay…is it just me, or do others also notice these things going on. Over the past couple of months I have been “lucky” enough to witness men relieving themselves in public parking lots. Once at Wal-Mart and yesterday at 7-11. This was not some middle of the night kinda thing, but during the day…and of course, both times it was near/next to my car.
At least the last guy appologized when I walked by, the one at Wal-Mart just looked at me like I had intruded upon him in his personal bathroom. Sometimes I just don’t get it…

Frappr!

Okay, the title makes it sound like someone farted in corduroy pants. But in fact this is a neat new little Google Map hack. So next chance you get, go to my Frappr site and add your pic and shoutout!

Walmart bathroom

Filed under: Life Rants — treojohnny @ 7:42 pm

Now I am not typically someone that takes pictures in public mens rooms, but sometimes you just have to.
So I am trying to figure out if the male customers at walmart in Cooksville, TN have a high rate of diabettes or drug habits. In all my travels I have not seen a syringe dispenser in a walmart bathroom till now.

Driving

Looks like I found Captain Americas RV while driving through Arkansas. Considering his speed and direction I am guessing he is trying to get out of this fascist police state as much as I am.

Rained out

Filed under: 2005/10 - Albuquerque Trip — @ 8:53 am

Well this was the last day of the feista and we got rained out. Mixed blessing since we got almost no sleep last night and can now nap before hitting the road.
Over all it was a great time and I just love the Balloon Fiesta. And helping to crew this year was a bonus. Always good to see all my long distance friends too.

Rio Grand Landing

Filed under: 2005/10 - Albuquerque Trip — @ 12:51 pm

After a nice long flight they landed on the other side of the Rio Grand from us. Vicky landed just next to the river, a pretty good place…but behind a fence. Luckily we had a nice group of locals that came out to help us get everything out to the road and the trailer.

Well we took off this morning. Vicky and Judy went up and had a great flight. The rest of us all jumped in the truck and went after them.

Glow and Fireworks

Filed under: 2005/10 - Albuquerque Trip — @ 9:50 pm

We didn’t quite make it in time for the evening glow tonight, traffic was quite bad. We did get there perfectly for the fireworks though.
Me, Jenny, Steve, Lorii, Nick and Ayngela really enjoyed the show.
