Friday Off and other Ramblings

I know what you are thinking this morning; JB and Sandy only worked two days this week. Well, that is true, but with good reason. If you listened Wednesday or Thursday you may have heard that my grandfather passed away last Friday and my wife, Tricia and I attended his funeral in Wichita Falls. More about that later. We are also off today. JB and his family had planned a long weekend at the Coast, so we have today off too. Tricia and I are going to hang out all day. As I type this, Tricia is putting on her bathing suit and we are going wakesurfing for a few hours, then to breakfast, then to see Iron Man and then back on the lake for a few hours. This is the plan anyway, I am sure it will get messed up somehow, but thats the plan.

I fixed my sprinkler system yesterday. I always feel good when I fix something. I have to fix my sprinkler every year. Over the last few years I have learned alot about plumbing. God bless plumbers, they work hard.

Things I learned from my grandfather:
Education is important, it can never be taken away from you
Buy insurance, you never know
Tell you wife that you love her every day
Tabasco is king and so is Bob Wills
Hard work does pay off
Copenhagen is good even though it is bad
The Texas Rangers will never win the World Series because it is to hot in Texas to play outdoors all summer long.

Would you guys use a message board if we put one back on the website?

I hate shameless self promoters. There is no way to do it without looking like a douche bag.

I am going to read Marley and me this week.

The Lakers and Celtics are in the NBA finals. I feel like it is the 80's again. I just wish they would wear nutters for one game. Do you know what nutters are? Prediction; Lakers in 7 games. ABC is thrilled with this match up. Two major market teams is always good for ratings. San Antonio is bad for ratings. Speaking of ratings, ours weren't so good last last quarter. Kind of a fluke thing, but they will get better.


Tricia and I wanted to go to Omaha to see my family for Fathers Day, but it would have cost $1600 for two tickets.....Too much for me, but probably not for The Quarter Millionaire DJ. :)

Anyone interested in wakesurfing/wakeboarding with me Thursday afternoon? I'll provide the boat, you provide gas money, you ipod, some beer and a good attitude. If you already know how to wakesurf or wakeboard send me an email sandy@jbandsandy.com I plan on going out around 2pm on Thursday, I'll pick you up at Emerald Point and drop you off around 4:30 or 5:00. I don't mean to be a jerk about not taking out people that have never done it before, but I have very little patience. You would hate me by the end of the day.

I'm back in from the lake. Tricia rode her knew wakeboard really well. Off to Jim's Resturant for lunch.

Jim's has great burgers, but the Frontier Burger (double meat and cheese) is too much for me. I surrender.
