Picture of the day! by you!

Holy smokes, yeah I'd say thats a wee bit of a problem. What kind of bugs are those? Can't say I've seen those around here.

see if I can spell this right, there Cinara Bow-Legged Aphids that go after true furs..there full of honeydew and the ants I think farm them...hate to spay them for the Lady bugs were in amongst some of them trying to clean then up and yellow jackets will eat them too, but they will kill off a top of a tree if you don't take care of them soon.........

we have a fairly large infestation of bugs on our x-mas tree farm........took pictures today

Ouch! are those going to hurt your crop?....... north bend?

address is snoqualmie, but close enough, were in between both towns north on the North fork of snoqualmie river...........

ok not taken today but here is a picture my father sent to me yesterday of his Little League Team back in 52'   It was the first time he had ever seen the picture as well.  It was sent to him by a friend of his from New York(that is where most of my dad's side is from, matter of fact they all are from New York)

I asked him to scan and email it to me, so I guess it was my picture of the day.

He's the 2nd one in from the left in the back row, I think.  He won't tell me and made me guess.  It looks like me though when I was that age so I'm hoping i'm right.  The guy in the middle with his mouth open is some billionaire in Vegas who owns a couple casinos.  I think he is connected from the vague description my father gave me.

My father was an awesome ballplayer and pitcher as well.  He actually played hardball in the Air Force for a while back in the day.

So last night my best friends hottie daughter comes rolling up to the house with some other little hottie.  I knew immediately she wanted some help fixing her stereo or something was up.  Anyway I let her bat her eyes at me and play her little routine to get uncle mike to look at her car.  She starts telling me dad effed up my stereo trying to rewire something.  So after I tell her not to speak like that about her father, I start pulling crap apart to find out the amp Rob(dad) and I put in has thumped its last thump. 
I pit crew the removal and head to my motorhome to pull a 500 watter out so she can have it and as i'm taking apart the enclosure that i made under one of the seats to house everything, I see this.  Now I like to insulate but this was reeee-diculous.  How did those little bas#@$s get in there.

Here's my pics of the day.
Pic of her for reference(she models) and the cabinet.

Alright not of today but I just got back last night and didn't have time to upload but here's what I've been up to for the last couple of days. Barcelona, Spain. Lots of parties, got seduced by 2 40 year old swedish women and a spanish girl my age. Wasn't a bad score considering I was with Claudia. Even though we don't have anything you still get loads less attention as they always think we're a couple. Anyways had a great time, first day the weather wasn't that good but I was in the city anyways so that didn't matter. The rest of days I rolled my ass down to the beach which was about 30 meters from our appartment and she went shopping early in the morning til late in the day. I just got a sun burn and headaches from the night before, but I had a great time.

Pic #1: View from the small balcony in our appartment, which was located in Barceloneta, very cool being among the natives.
Pic #2: A watershow that is put on every friday and saturday evenings in the city.
Pic #3: What other place does a girl belong? Just kidding
Pic #4: The wind blowing through one of the metro tunnels was amazing she was standing still...

I dunno but it wasn't me...

[mikepmcs]

Well, since you are tied up with the 2 40 year olds and the other girl who seduced you.  I would be more than happy to go broke buying Claudia's love.

I just made myself laugh.

Now get back on the movie quote thread, it's been dead for over a month.

Hahaha becarefull what you wish for, she is expensive... While we there she bought Chanel sunglasses 310 euro's, a D&G belt 116,-, 6 pairs of shoes, a load of shirts and whatever I didn't really even care looking through. Imagine she buys sunglasses probably with a production cost 2 euro's and calls me crazy for buying drinks 15 euro's each.  What can one say life is expensive.

I know I miss the movie quotations thread as well, but it wasn't my turn and I haven't had the nerve to go before my turn. But I think I might, I don't think chargerboy69 is going to post again. So keep an eye out I am going to think up a good one, haven't seen many movies lately though.

These are some of the abandoned buildings in the town i live in.

This house once sold for $6000

[69Coronet]

The last person to live in the white house moved into a shed on a farm.

[Arthu®]

So what is it with you and abandoned houses, do you work for a demo company or something?

Arthur

[69Coronet]

The green house is a favorite of the kids in town.  you see them breaking in a lot or sometimes youll suprise them when you go by and theyll run as fast as they can

wish i did

[69Coronet]

This is the oldest building in our town. Used to be the hotel for the Chicago & North Western RR before passenger service stopped in the 50s.

[Arthu®]

All of these are abandoned right? How come the grass is still so short? I would think there would be bushes, trees, and long grass everywhere.

they are next to higher end houses and parks and auction centers.  So somebody has to take care of them

I'd love to own one of those old farm houses! What part of the country are they/ you located in?

From this past Holiday season when the WWE folks went over to Iraq & Afghanistan to visit/entertain the troops!
