Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one's definition of your life, but define yourself. Harvey S. Firestone

The people with whom you work reflect your own attitude. If you are suspicious, unfriendly and condescending, you will find these unlovely traits echoed all about you. But if you are on your best behavior, you will bring out the best in persons with whom you are going to spend most of your waking hours.

Some people get spiritual because they see the light and some people get spiritual because they feel the heat!

How do you know if you're truly a servant? See how you react the next time someone treats you like one.

From The Corner Of My Mind

* Thunderstorms are forecast for later in the week.
* Black Beauty is all ready for work. Everything is installed, toolbox, fuel tank, windows tinted, hitch installed, all tools and extra parts for my equipment swapped over. I bought a 3/4 sheet of plywood and screwed some 2 x 4 studs to it for the bed to keep my subs and tools from rolling around.
* I hooked up my swivel trailer and moved it this morning and got a wiring fault message. The trailer brakes were locked down. I have a seven pin-six pin adapter and I'm pretty sure it's the culprit. I purchased it last year for the GMC and I'm thinking it's not compatible with Ford. I will get another one at Autozone this evening.
* I'm thinking that I need some fender flares for her to keep it cleaner and keep rocks from chipping it up behind the wheels. Whatcha think, to gaudy?
* Our manager drove it yesterday and he wants one bad. He has had his company truck for 4 years and it has 120k on it. It's still a good truck, but he sure liked mine and will likely be looking soon.
* Thanks for the prayers and Hail Marys.
* Cute? I can't believe she called my new gi-normous truck cute. Sheeez....
* I don't like Gnomes anymore till she comes up with a better description than "cute".
* I've been so busy the last few days that I haven't even checked Twitter till yesterday. It took ten minutes to catch up.
* After posting the Every 15 Minute video yesterday, W-daughter reminded me that we had a video of one that she participated in when she was in school and I was on the Fire Dept. I can't find it, but she thinks we let someone borrow it and never got it back. If you have it, I need it back.
* If you watched the race on Sunday, did you notice that towards the end that Fox went to a split screen during commercials to keep from missing any of the race? I did, and I love it. Opinions?
* Just a few more weeks till we spend a week on the river. So ready for that.
* W-stepson had a minor accident yesterday. Wasn't his fault and he did everything he could to stop. A guy pulled right out in front of him pulling a trailer, and he hit the trailer. Going to have to have a new fender, bumper and most likely a hood.
* Have a great day, see ya Around The Corner!

OH no!!! So glad it was minor and he wasn't hurt, but damn, why do we have all of these needless STUPID accidents happening all the time. Was it a freaking PT Cruiser pulling that trailer???? hmmmmmmmm

Be careful on the trailer plug, on Ford you need to make sure which pin is the ground, sometimes its the center connection or it could be one of the other ones.
