pulled a muscle in my ribs earlier. Don't know how. Trying not to move too much to ease that pain has caused my back to hurt. Although back pain comes with the territory.

I so need a spa.

Warm Greetings and Salutations one and all.. Thought about riding my bike in this morning but decided not to.. a bit foggy and some moron tried to run me off the road in my truck this morning so I could have ended up in worse condition if'n I had been on the bike.
Regardless, hope you all have a great morning...

Good Morning everybody,

57 degrees at 0706 hrs, partly cloudy with a high of 62. Sounds great but........the wind is blowing 20 to 30 mph because of an approaching cold front.

G'mornin'.

I'm wearing a suit.

And eating a Pop-Tart.

And listening to Dookie.

And not looking forward to our "staff meeting," which basically amounts to gathering a group of people together and boring them with erroneous information that doesn't teach/inform them of anything.

BUT, I did go by my old elementary school yesterday and get a few bricks as keepsakes (they're tearing it down). I got enough for several of my friends to have one also. Yes, I'm still firends with the same folks I went to elementary school with. I think it speaks volumes.

I have trouble imagining you in a suit.

FWIW, it's a cheap suit, if that helps.

That is the same case with my wife. 90% of the people here grew up here and went to school together. Her graduating class had about 70 seniors. And probably 65 of them she went to school with from 1st grade on up. That's totally different from my school experience. As an Army brat, I went to several different schools. So I always grew up with people that were from other places as well. So we found it cool that they were from Germany, Japan, etc.

Here, in my small town, everyone has the same mindset. The same thoughts. I've never experienced that before. A culture shock for me. For my wife, if the air conditioner goes out, or the car breaks down, she knows a dozen people she can call cause she grew up with them. The flip side of that is everyone knows your business, and anything stupid she did, like in her high school years (the graffiti incident that I've been told about comes to mind), everybody knows and won't let you quite forget.

There were about 750 in my graduation class. Heck I didn't know 2/3 of them when I graduated. Ask me which kids were rich and which were poor, well, I can't remember. It didn't matter. We had our own identities and we were not identified by who our parents were. Not in this small town. All the high school kids here are somebody if their parents are somebody. The kids ride their parents coat tails for popularity. I guess that's why so many of them, when they graduate and move on to stand on their own, have such a problem with authority and drug abuse. The small town mindset here is that if you are somebody in this small town, you are somebody important to the entire world. Funny.

It's not traditional racism here, cause it is 95% caucasian. It is social racism here. Racism based on your income level, popularity, who you know, etc. That, too, is new to me.

Don't forget about "popular". Of course, that doesn't necessarily entail "with the ladies".
