The Offical B.S Thread!!!!

[ramthis9501]

I agree with Mike, that's freakin ridiculous and no you didn't over react. He needs to own up to what he did and pay you for the repairs

[myoung84]

I honestly don't even want to get the boat out. The lake is too low for me to feel comfortable. There were lots of areas that are normally 12-15 feet deep that were only 4-5 feet on Saturday. I don't care to trash my lower end and prop out in the middle of the lake. I say fuck it, lets just stay home and relax.

I have already decided in the rare chance that we do go, the 4 wheeler is staying home for sure. I'll go ride by myself or with my wife somewhere else.

[(S.M.R) 101]

Damn sorry to hear that Morgan... That is shitty for real.

it's just a good thing your not like me......Cuz Gator don't play no shit....hahah j/k

[myoung84]

Lol.

[(S.M.R) 101]

So he has just flat out refused to pay for damages huh?

[OklaHemi]

geez kyle it wasnt his fault... if morgans 4 wheel had the proper brakes installed this would never had happened. im surprised he didnt pull some dumb shit like can you help me with some medical bills because it was your 4 wheeler

[(S.M.R) 101]

Haha ohh yeah I forgot it was in fact all Morgan's fault sorry Mike thanks for the correction

[myoung84]

Of course it's my fault! He didn't refuse to pay for anything he just never offered.

[(S.M.R) 101]

Roger that

[OklaHemi]

Im hitting Skitook tomorrow afternoon, we just rebuilt the carbs on the jet boat and got the motor running smooth.

[myoung84]

How is Skiatook? Never been there...

[OklaHemi]

when the levels are up its beautiful. the water is always pretty clear, i can see my legs while floating. its our go to lake for all outing activities.

[Matt]

just fyi i heard the fuel there is SUPER cheap right now ... like 10-15 cents cheaper than the city ... my buddy just came through there

[OklaHemi]

at the lake? i just filled my boat up last night so that sucks.

[ramthis9501]

I thought gas at the lake was always like 20-30 cents higher

[OklaHemi]

i know it usually more but i have never know how much. i just put 75.00 in my ram today and i couldn't tell you how much it was per gal. i never look anymore i have found better things to be concerned with

[myoung84]

I'll have to head out here sometime. And I am surprised to see gas cheaper at the lake. Normally its higher, but most of the time it's 100% gas, which is all my boat will ever see.

[BMRbrnSNRbrd]

I need to come hang with you Tulsa guys at the lake!

[OklaHemi]

yeah i learned about putting 87 ethanol blend in mine. im only running 91 oct 100% gas for now on.

[ramthis9501]

Mike you still need to take me out on the boat sometime before you sell it

[OklaHemi]

I need to come hang with you Tulsa guys at the lake!

yeah you need to its a lot of fun. we usually tear it up on the water for a while lunch break on the beach w/ swimming then back to tubing. 60% of the time we cook out every time.

[OklaHemi]

Mike you still need to take me out on the boat sometime before you sell it

Chrissy doesn't care to sell it anymore, so we can take it out this weekend when you guys are up here.

[ramthis9501]

Sweet that'd be cool, hopefully we'll have some time to do that

[OklaHemi]

i always have time, 22 min from my house to the boat ramp at tall chief cove

[ramthis9501]

Don't forget the sub...

[myoung84]

We haven't been out on the water nearly enough this year.

[abn1985]

I'm thinking about taking the wave runners out Monday where is everybody going

[myoung84]

I guess I'll be at Eufaula with the inlaws again... There will be alcohol involved this weekend...

[abn1985]

That's a Lil drive for me

[BMRbrnSNRbrd]

If it makes you feel better I'll be at work Sat through Tues...

[(S.M.R) 101]

I hear ya Dave I'm pulling 7 days a week and since we lost 3 days to the flooding and stuff the crews are working overtime to get caught back up...... That means 14 hours a day dudes 7 days a week.. but that's why I make the big bucks......."as my boss says"

[ramthis9501]

Dang and I thought my 5 days a week going 7 hours a day was bad lol

[myoung84]

I've gotten soft. Haven't worked on a weekend in I don't know how many years and rarely work past 5:00 during the week.

[(S.M.R) 101]

yeah once things calm down a bit and I get back to what I normally do..

[ramthis9501]

These fires are crazy!

[916Timmy]

Saw the SE OKC one from the base...only a few miles directly east from the airplanes!

[OklaHemi]

have any of you guys heard of this juice fasting/ feasting? after watching fat sick and nearly dead last night on netflix, chrissy got the great idea to go on a juice fast and drug me into it as well. we already own a vtamix so having a smoothie for breakfast or lunch is an almost everyday occurrence, this is only stepping it up a little. i agreed to go 10 days with her, then immediately tried to back out because i remember the holiday coming up. neither of us are severely overweight we are doing this more to cleanse and are planning a major eating habit change after. anyway we took pics and are documenting daily so if anyone cares ill post up a before and after too see if there is any truth to this. the guys on the show were losing 60lbs in so many days but the were also "obese". we are in good medical health so we are pretty confident about giving it a try although a loaded fajita burrito and 16oz steak sound so good to me and its only the first day.

I will also be adding in moderate exercise(what my back and ankle will allow)

[ramthis9501]

Nice it'll be cool to see your all's progress

[myoung84]

I need to do something and lose 30 lbs. I have gained over 60 lbs in the last 5 years.

[ramthis9501]

I've been trying to eat healthy to, what I've been doing is eat breakfast, then not eat until around 4 when I get home which consists of some kind of protein, like chicken or turkey. Then some kind of fruit like an apple or peach and to finish it off, a bottle of ensure which is a very healthy protein shake. I drink either juice or water with it. Then dinner is usually something good and somewhat healthy lol been doing this to stay in good health and get in shape for soccer starting up soon

[BMRbrnSNRbrd]

My stepmom did it and lost a lot of weight. The only thing you have to think of is if you go back to normal eating you will most likely gain it back.

Believe it or not I used to be in great shape. I worked out six days a week and was a steady 185 while benching a max of 270 and squatting so much that the bar would actually bend from the weight. At my highest I've weighed I got to 240, that was Dec 07. I'm now at the lowest I've been since them at 203. The biggest thing I changed was giving up all soda and coffee as caffeine hinders weight loss.

[ramthis9501]

I quit drinking soda all together to, all I drink is water and juice, Gatorade at times when I'm running or about to play a game

[myoung84]

Where do you guys get the will power?

[ramthis9501]

Want to live longer then 40 years on McDonald's

[BMRbrnSNRbrd]

Where do you guys get the will power?

Little battles dude. I tried quitting soda about four times in the last five years. I'll be the first to admit that, while I don't have an addictive personality, I don't have much will power either. I just fought little battles. If I go in to get a drink, just grab a Gatorade or something, pay for it, and leave before you can change your mind. I stopped buying bottles of Coke for the house. Now I drink sweet tea, lemonade, etc. Sure, there's caffeine in tea, but I also don't drink it like I drank Coke.

[OklaHemi]

Yeah we are planning on eating healthy, basically no more processed foods. This sucks so bad first day and im starving. I have read after three days you arent hungry anymore

[(S.M.R) 101]

yeah in 2007 I was working in Tishomingo OK and when I was there I was 250 pounds and in 1 month and 2 weeks I dropped down to 168 pounds..... Now a lot played in on this.. I didn't really do it the healthy way (Like didn't eat anything for for a few weeks) but I was trying, Instead of sitting in my truck and watching the seismic crews I was out walking with them in the 110 degree weather which helped a lot but was also on the edge with my girlfriend who was up in NY and was fixing to leave me for another guy due to the fact that I only got to come home 4 times out of that entire year and I could only stay for 2 weeks at a time and she got sick of it and they fact that I had gained a lot of weight.. (She says that had noting to do with it but I doubt it) but I stopped drinking soda quit eating out 3 times a day and did work out when work permitted. over the last 4 years I have gone back up on weight, I am at 191 right now but I did keep the weight off and watched what I ate and worked out when I could...

I need to get back to working out.... I miss being 168 pounds and cut lol...

[ramthis9501]

Yup aslong as you don't stock the fridge full of coke but instead with water and Gatorade it helps alot to bring the temptation down. I've only done this not eat until after school thing for about a week. I'm not even hungry right now, but will be later. Basically tricking my mind into it I guess. There is nothing healthy about Blanchard. Only way to eat good is wait to get home where there's good stuff

[Matt]

you're saying in 6 weeks you droped 82 lbs?

[Matt]

shouldn't you be in class

[myoung84]

I actually quit drinking pop a while back and it lasted a few weeks and I started to see a decrease. Then for whatever reason I started drinking it again... I am at 220 now and need to be at 180. I would be thrilled to be a 200 even...

[myoung84]

shouldn't you be in class


LOL. :slap:

[ramthis9501]

shouldn't you be in class

Eh it's psychology, teacher doesn't care so who cares :D Lol

[Matt]

if you don't want to be a screw up making 10 bucks an hour as your career pay attention in school... it might be "cool" to be on the internet or on your phone during class but trust me you'll wish you actually paid more attention when you become an adult

[ramthis9501]

I do pay attention, matter of fact I have pretty much all A's right now. We're not doing anything in here now so why not check in and see what's going on? I understand what your saying and I see pleanty of kids here that are gonna be flipping burgers, pretty sad... I'm planning on going to college so I'm really going to be applying myself this year

[Matt]

what serious important things do you think are going on on here while you're at school? ... you can have all the plans in the world it's your actions that determine what you do in life ... just saying ...

[ramthis9501]

I know and I'm taking the necessary steps to do what I want for a career. Trust me I don't play on my phone when there's things to be done, just when I'm sitting around doing nothing after I finish my work

[(S.M.R) 101]

you're saying in 6 weeks you droped 82 lbs?

try not eating for 3 weeks and see how much you loose it comes off faster then you think.. When I did eat it was a few wheat thins.. On top of that walking from 5am to 7pm in southern OK in mid September 7 days a week it comes off even faster..

All i put in my body was water 2 jugs of water a day to make sure I wouldn't get dehydrated from the heat and get heat stroke.. I believe it's called the water diet

Go look it up..

[myoung84]

what serious important things do you think are going on on here while you're at school? ... you can have all the plans in the world it's your actions that determine what you do in life ... just saying ...

That's right, do good in school and get a good job like me where you can check out the forums while at work. :D

[(S.M.R) 101]

if you don't want to be a screw up making 10 bucks an hour as your career pay attention in school... it might be "cool" to be on the internet or on your phone during class but trust me you'll wish you actually paid more attention when you become an adult

Funny my teachers use to tell me that and tell me that I would never make it in the "Real World" if I didn't pay attention in class.

Graduated from high school and here I am now making over 100+K a year working in Oil & Gas.......

and have a $80,xxx recording studio that I built from the ground up that is taking off real fast

Who's laughing now....

So please excuse my non sympathetic attitude and pay no attention to the condescending cordiality of the "Public School System" and their never ending cycles of lies of how you will never be anything if you are not a straight A student in this diabolical society we live in :D

[OklaHemi]

^^ ha ha.

[BMRbrnSNRbrd]

Meanwhile I busted my ass in high school and college and make a fraction of that...

[(S.M.R) 101]

That's right, do good in school and get a good job like me where you can check out the forums while at work. :D

lol hell yes!

[(S.M.R) 101]

Meanwhile I busted my ass in high school and college and make a fraction of that...

That's why I have a problem with this whole thing we call a "System".. it's so obtuse.. They make you bust your ass in school to end up in tons of debt and then stick you in a job where it will take you 25-30 years to pay it back off what you are making...

It just makes me scratch my head in confusion

[ramthis9501]

Lol that's awesome

[OklaHemi]

i remember after i dropped out of HS i had a particular teacher giving me all kinds of hell on how big of a failure i would become. when i bought my second house at 19 it was 3 houses down from him and he thought i had moved in with my parents. that was always funny to me. i have been making double to triple his salary since i turned 18 and havent slowed down. reading is fundamental and school is important but you will only become as good as you want to be. i still make more than my cousins that graduated from usc. colton is a good kid his head is on right

[(S.M.R) 101]

Mike you nailed it on the head dude......"You will only become as good as you want" and I was not going to bring this up... but I seen that teacher a few years later and he got cought in the school with the health teacher bumping ugly's in a classroom and both of them "were" married... So when I seen him he was broke and lost everything.......

These are the people telling us as kids that we will never make it in life???

and he use to tell me if you don't do good you will never make 35K a year like me.......hummm yeah about that....

Man I could go all day with this shit.... same as the government I won't even get started on that.

[OklaHemi]

I actually quit drinking pop a while back and it lasted a few weeks and I started to see a decrease. Then for whatever reason I started drinking it again... I am at 220 now and need to be at 180. I would be thrilled to be a 200 even...

im at 195 today which inst too bad but i havent been able to work out since my accident so muscle has turned to flab. i have lost a full inch off of my arms, its sad. i like being at 185-190 cut and im 5'10". i want to start p90x again but my dr. hasnt released me for anything strenuous so that will have to wait. i was 9 weeks in when i was crushed and i was in really good shape from it.

[(S.M.R) 101]

Mike that sucks dude.. how long you think before you can go back to your usual routine of things?

[myoung84]

That's why I have a problem with this whole thing we call a "System".. it's so obtuse.. They make you bust your ass in school to end up in tons of debt and then stick you in a job where it will take you 25-30 years to pay it back off what you are making...

It just makes me scratch my head in confusion

I think college still helps a lot with finding a job, but honestly you will learn more in the first 6 months of your career than you will 4-5 years of higher education. I use very little of my "college knowledge" for work and ended with $50k in student loans.

[(S.M.R) 101]

I agree with you Morgan it does help.. and i'm willing to bet that 70+ % of jobs require you have a College degree before they will even look at your resume...

But again you said it, It kills me that they force stuff on you that you will actually never even need to do the job you want....Just further racking up your debt

[ramthis9501]

I'm wanting to go into Mediflight and disaster relief, should start getting all that in the works by this coming spring

[Matt]

you are definitely not the average high school graduate ... look at the facts college graduates make way more money than the average high school graduate .. however i wasn't referring to you having to make straight a's in high school to get a job it comes down to more of a work ethic .. my dad is another example of that he grossed half a mil last year and the dude has 0 schooling after high school but he has the strongest work ethic of anyone i have ever seen ... too many kids have that attitude bc they know someone who didn't go to college and they are making a bunch of money they think that college doesn't benefit them

different strokes for different folks ....

[(S.M.R) 101]

it does come down to work ethic.. if you really want it bad enough like I did then you can do it, I am a firm believer in that.. My point was that they force kids to believe that if you don't do good in school and don't go to college that you have no chance to make it and that is a load of maniacal bull shit.. and I was out to prove a point to all the People and their malice intentions and demeaning things about how my life would end up..

My motto was I could either spend 60 to 70 grand or make it.... I took the other path, two each his own in this world.

and my point may seem illogical or egotistical but the fact remains why try to scare kids into thinking that their way is the only way... If anything it made me cast them out even more..

and 90% of the people I work with only graduated from High school and some of them were drop outs from high school and a good % of them make way more $$$ than I do

But anyway I've said my peace on the subject and it is what it is, take it with a grain of salt if you must but that's how I feel about it.

[OklaHemi]

the only thing i ever try to scare kids about is having kids too soon. my kids will be in college with a plan but because they want to.

[OklaHemi]

Mike that sucks dude.. how long you think before you can go back to your usual routine of things?

no telling man. i have to get re educated so thats not a good sign

[(S.M.R) 101]

the only thing i ever try to scare kids about is having kids too soon. my kids will be in college with a plan but because they want to.

yeah I hear you on that dude

[BMRbrnSNRbrd]

Well I went to an orthopedic specialist today because my back has gotten so bad I almost couldn't get out of bed Wednesday morning. He ordered an MRI, which won't be until next Wednesday and thinks it's either a herniated disc fragment or severely inflamed nerve...basically either surgery or some localized injections.

He put me on a large steroid pack and loritab which means I'm now off the next four days even though I was supposed to work.......damn.

[myoung84]

That sucks David.

[BMRbrnSNRbrd]

Yeah, but at least I have an answer to what is causing it now. At this point I would club a baby seal with an endangered polar bear cub if I thought it would help.

[ramthis9501]

Man that sucks, hope everything goes good

[(S.M.R) 101]

Damn dude that must really hurt to come to clubbing baby seals lol..

But hope you get it all fixed up man.

[OklaHemi]

dave take it easy with the bad back bud. keep us informed with the dr. updates

[BMRbrnSNRbrd]

I'm taking it pretty easy...it helps I get out of work for a few days (I have PLENTY of sick leave, so no worries there.) I've taken a few pills the last couple hours so I feel better now than I have in months!

[(S.M.R) 101]

yeha man sit back and enjoy your time off dude..

I am suppose to have sugery on my knee but I keep blowing it off because I hate the hospital.. I have a piece of bone from my knee that broke off a few years back.. There are days that I can't even walk on it most other days it just hurts all day..

I just need to suck it up and head to the hospital and do it..

[OklaHemi]

Damn you young bastards are falling apart and the told me everything goes down hill when you hit 30. I had never broken a bone until the accident and was still backflipping on trampolines this time last year. I hope to he able to do that again, my kids hate that I dont play with them like I used to. And for some reason I have been dying to play basketball lately. Thats what im going to tell my dr. my goals are play with my kids and basketball

[(S.M.R) 101]

Mine happend when I was watching a set of surveyors trying to drive a side by side up a hill to look at a proposed well site and they flipped it because it was to steep... and me being a dumb ass my first instinct was try and grab the Rihno as it came flipping past me and the front end smashed my knee.. and I ended up at the bottom of the hill along with the Rhino..

Couldn't walk for 2 weeks on that leg.. Never went to the doctor until 4 months later

[(S.M.R) 101]

Alright Damn it! I'm driving to Pittsburgh for a meeting and I have been driving for 3 hours and there OS a Fucking fly in here that is relentless in his efforts to piss me off! I just had every window open for 15 min and that little bastard is still all up in my personal space..... Somethings gotta give

[BMRbrnSNRbrd]

"Shoo fly don't bother me,
Shoo fly don't bother me,
Shoo fly don't bother me,
Cuz you bring to my friend link"

MEAT GROUP!

Anyone name that movie?

[(S.M.R) 101]

Dude I know where that's from I just can't name it Haha

[ramthis9501]

That's how I am to lol

[Matt]

encino man?

[BMRbrnSNRbrd]

encino man?

winner!

[nightmatt]

Ok now that's really weird, cause I had a dream about that movie last night.

[myoung84]

Sitting in a hotel in Little Rock all alone. Bored as hell. Ready to come home!

[(S.M.R) 101]

what the hell you doing in AR dude?

[ramthis9501]

Im wondering the same thing lol

[myoung84]

The mother ship for work is in Little Rock. Had my annual review today (which went well) then have our sales meeting tomorrow. Probably won't be done til 4 or 5 then I have a a 4 hour ride home. I'm with our outside sales guy in his company Impala. What an uncomfortable POS. For what he pays for it (nothing plus free gas card) I would drive it but it amazes me people actually pay money for these cars. A base model 3.5L charger is only a couple grand more and is 10x the car.

[ramthis9501]

Thats why everyone just needs to drive a Mopar :D Have fun in Arkansas and be safe

[myoung84]

Damn I need to go to sleep! Guess I'm a big pussy, I don't sleep well without my wife.

[(S.M.R) 101]

yeah it's weird being with someone every single night for long times and then them not being there..

[(S.M.R) 101]

and due to the fact of all the flooding I didn't really work today so I came home with the intentions to take a quick power nap and ended up sleeping for 4 hours! I am never going to be able to fall asleep tonight lol..

and it's only 11pm there 12am here.......I live in the future and you guys live in the past :signs6:

[myoung84]

Lol. All I know is its past my bed time!

[(S.M.R) 101]

No doubt dude

[BMRbrnSNRbrd]

Listen to you two, you're ridiculous...




....I was in bed at 10...with my wife. Then the kiddo woke up at 3:45 having a bad dream and said he saw a "strangler" which is "stranger" in human speak. Hearing that freaked me out just enough to do a walk around the house.

[(S.M.R) 101]

hahaha

[OklaHemi]

i know. landon woke up and was at the front door screaming that there was an all black man outside by the tree in our yard that was enough to send chrissy off the deep end and i was walking around outside for about 15 minutes

[BMRbrnSNRbrd]

Needless to say I felt better walking around the house last night with a firearm vs a metal bat.

[Matt]

^ wow racist lol jk jk

[ramthis9501]

Dang sounds scary lol and I don't blame you Dave

[OklaHemi]

i remember reading a poll taken from criminals, mostly robbers. that stated that the scariest thing to hear when you are on the "prowl" was a shot gun being cocked. i am thankful that my alarm was installed while my home was being built and is on every door and window and uses a cell device so they cant cut the line. it is a great piece of mind for when i need to travel

[myoung84]

Needless to say I felt better walking around the house last night with a firearm vs a metal bat.

Ain't that the truth!

[ramthis9501]

I need to vent... So last week during our first soccer game of the season, I pulled my right quadricep and dealed with it all week getting it healed back up. Then today at our game, I drive the ball up and get slide tackled from behind (which is illegal) but the asshole ref didn't call it, and I mess my left leg up. It's right above the knee and my quad, I can hardly bend it without it killing me. Its just pissing me off because I'm one of the only guys out there that gets aggressive and I get hurt. I don't get why it keeps doing this but I'm getting tired of it.

[OklaHemi]

you should watch bend it like beckham, that will learn ya

[abn1985]

yooooooooooooooo

[OklaHemi]

[BMRbrnSNRbrd]

Well I'm back fellas. Still not feeling very hot...some pain at the surgical area but at least my headache and nausea are gone (brother said they were due to all the meds pumped in to me on Monday.) I feel like an old man hobbeling around my house but at least I can move with almost no pain. I get the staples out on the 29th and then have six weeks of taking it easy.

[myoung84]

Glad to hear everything went well with the surgery. Hope you can recover quickly!

[abn1985]

So what's going on guys? anything new going on with you all

Got my bed cover installed today and I really like it.. It's a "Extang Trifecta" (The lady who I first talked to told me it was a bakflip but like I said she was on crack or something)

None the less I really like it..

other than that i'm gearing up for my trip to OK can't freaking wait!

Oh and I went to the Aaron Lewis and Blake Shelton concert yesterday......... Not really my style but it made the girl happy so I went.

[abn1985]

Pics?

[myoung84]

Did some minor painting this weekend but I don't have pics because the truck is still at the dealer for broken exhaust manifold studs... Morons have had it since 7 this morning and still couldn't get it done.

[(S.M.R) 101]

I'll have pics tomorrow

[BMRbrnSNRbrd]

My truck has to go in for a rear window problem.

What's wrong with it?

[BMRbrnSNRbrd]

Norman Chrysler Jeep Dodge.

I've dropped the price on my mygig to 350 and nothing. Damnit I want those wheels.

Lol I would buy it if it worked in my truck maybe I need to make a conector of some kind that would make it work

[myoung84]

Tulsa guys, what Dodge dealer do you prefer for service? So far I am not all that impressed with Chris Nickel. I just go there because they are only a couple miles from my house...

[abn1985]

As a dealer I've used just about all them, they all suck and are slow!

[(S.M.R) 101]

Hope you get it sold Dave..

What wheels are you looking at getting?

[BMRbrnSNRbrd]

There's a set of 22" Boss 335s with tires in Tulsa. The tires are all in good shape and match. I may just go up and get them regardless if I get the MyGig sold...it's a good price.

[(S.M.R) 101]

If it would fit my truck I would have bought it dude. I'll call a few of my buddy's down there and see if they are in the market for one

[myoung84]

Those will look sweet David! Im sure the Mygig will sell soon enough.

[BMRbrnSNRbrd]

I put it on Ebay...set the starting at $300 and BIN at $400...only a 3 day auction that ends tomorrow evening...only time will tell.

[Matt]

well in case anyone cares the new iphone info released today
it's called the 4s not the 5
now sprint, att, verizon….3gs free now, iphone 4 8gb $99, iphone 4s, 16gb $199, 32gb $299, 64gb, $399…… has the a5 chip now which is a dual core processor, 7x faster graphics, 8mp camera with HUGE improvements in quality, sensor, and speed, 1080p video, siri technology that is a amazing voice recognition software, looks exactly like the iphone 4……

[Matt]

some examples


You can ask Siri about stocks. Siri says “NASDAQ Composite is down right now.” Siri is also partnered with Yelp, so you can ask something like “Find me a great Greek restaurant in Palo Alto.” Siri responds “I’ve found 14 Greek restaurants, 5 of them are in Palo Alto. I’ve sorted them by rating.” The ranked listing follows below.

Now, a question about the clock. “What time is it in Paris?” Response: “The time in Paris, France is 8:16 PM.” What about the alarm? “Wake me up tomorrow at 6am?” “OK I set it for 6am” Siri says. Impressive.



You can also ask the question a different way to get the same result. You can also ask something conceptual like, “Do I need a raincoat today?” Siri responds: “It sure looks like rain today.”

that is effin sweet matt. im an apple junkie but i own a dell phone, go figure.

morgan i usually stay away from dealerships but if i do need anything i call the one on 41st and memorial. i have bought a few parts from them and they were nice enough, i havent had to take my truck there for anything though

[Matt]

do you own the streak? lol

[ramthis9501]

do you own the streak? lol

Yes he does, its such an awesome phone. It dwarfs my Droid X2 lol

[Matt]

lol that's like having a netbook in your pocket

[myoung84]

I just got a Verizon 4G Motorola Droid Bionic for my work phone and it's awesome. We finally made the switch from crackberrys. I am getting over 20 meg downloads on the 4G network. My 3G AT&T phone got about 2 megs and my wife's 4G AT&T phone gets about 6 megs. I like this phone so much I paid the early termination fee to cancel my personal AT&T phone! We have unlimited everything at work and I see no point in paying an extra $65 a month to carry 2 Droids around...

[OklaHemi]

yes i own the streak. it was one of those things that when i saw it i new i would have it. now that is can run netflix and just picked up some developers it just got a lot better. i need to get the car mount quick

[(S.M.R) 101]

Damn dudes...... I'm sick as hell! I got the Pennsylvania crud.. I am glad this happend now tho instead of right before I leave to come down to OK..

Lots of Crown Royal & hot lemon tea.... Mmmmmm

[ramthis9501]

Get better soon dude

[myoung84]

Sounds like a good cough syrup recipe!

[OklaHemi]

you forgot the honey... get well Kyle. i hate getting sick in the summer/fall. it feels way worse

[Matt]

i've been sick for over a week here too there's something nasty going around

[BMRbrnSNRbrd]

I haven't been too bad but when I wake up in the morning I have a bunch of drainage in my chest that I spend about an hour coughing up.

[(S.M.R) 101]

Yeah I hear you Dave.. I hate waking up cuz I know for the next hour or so ill be hacking this shit up. It's spreading like wild fire up here. My dad got it then I got it. Now my 2 other brothers have it. My girl had it all last week. And there are 4 people at the office that have it...

It's been a Shitty week..

The crown really mixed well with the lemon honey tea and helped the soar throat.

[Matt]

really trying to get motivated to go finish my project ... even went to the store and got materials .. but i'm really lacking motivation lol

[BMRbrnSNRbrd]

What is the project?

[Matt]

secrets

[abn1985]

I need to redo my exhaust but I'm too lazy

[BMRbrnSNRbrd]

Spill it Matt.

What do you need to do Jay?

[abn1985]

Spill it Matt.

What do you need to do Jay?

[BMRbrnSNRbrd]

What about a magnaflow with an e cutout.

[abn1985]

What about a magnaflow with an e cutout.
IS that DEEP Sounding exhaust!

[(S.M.R) 101]

if your looking for deep just dump it at the bed of the truck

[BMRbrnSNRbrd]

Hell no...I've got a video uploading now that will show you what the 14" Magnaflow sounds like routed out the back.

[abn1985]

Hell no...I've got a video uploading now that will show you what the 14" Magnaflow sounds like routed out the back.

[(S.M.R) 101]

Well J just got my headlight back....... and when he opened the box the back of the headlight was broke.. Due to careless FedEx personel...

So he is thinking it's going to be awhile before he can get it back to me....

[(S.M.R) 101]

I use to be a huge Korn fan but they lost me when they came out with Untouchables I have not bought a cd since then....and on top of that my most favorite member of the band left (Brian Head Welch) so i really gave up on them when that went down.

I'm actually going to see Brian Head Welch this friday he is playing at a bar/grill about an hour from here....pretty excited

But I jam that song lol..

I hate that song Dave! lol

[(S.M.R) 101]

I'm not liking this OU and T.Tech right now..... Going to have to pick their game up some

[Matt]

ou is playing like shit ... osu will be 3 next week !!

[(S.M.R) 101]

Im like 2 seconds from turning it off....

[OU Hemi]

I was there.. Tough to watch.

[ramthis9501]

After that missed field goal I turned it off and went to bed

[OklaHemi]

i was in florida and when they told me they lost, i poured out something tropical for my fallen homies then went back to drinking on the beach... rough

[Matt]

so a ton of "popular" events or whatever happened today

kim kardashian got divorced after only 72 days hahahahahhahaha

tony larussa retired after 33 seasons

in living color is coming back

that is all lol tmz signing off

[ramthis9501]

I'll be taking the ACT in December... got a lot of studying to do in the next month

[Matt]

i took the approach that if you don't know it by now you're not going to know it in a couple weeks so i didn't study for the act or the sat .. or the asvab lol but i'm a smart guy haha

[BMRbrnSNRbrd]

I didn't study, took it with a hangover, got a 30. Took it again without the hangover, 29.

[Matt]

exactly lol took it twice once when i was 16 and once when i was 17 got 30s both time so that was plenty high enough for me both times i had stayed up late the night before

[BMRbrnSNRbrd]

Nice! My brother and I both got 30s as our highs and my "perfect" stepsister...didn't, lol. I wanna say she topped a 26?

[ramthis9501]

If I make a 30 or above, I'll be stoked!

[BMRbrnSNRbrd]

Wanna guess what I got out of it?

[myoung84]

Good luck Colton. I think I got a 27 or something?

[ramthis9501]

Wanna guess what I got out of it?

What?

[BMRbrnSNRbrd]

Not a damn thing.

[myoung84]

About the same thing I got out of it.

[ramthis9501]

Well today they say if I get like a 32 with a 3.5 GPA then I'll get like a full ride to ou. That's what I want.

[BMRbrnSNRbrd]

I scored a 30 and graduated in the top ten percent of my class (class of 692, IIRC). I didn't even take a slack senior year, I took the highest classes possible that helped me clep out of some english, math, and science...still no scholarships.

[myoung84]

My full ride was funded by me. Still owe OSLA a shit ton of money...

[Matt]

Not a damn thing.

you got screwed then bc i got scholarship offers just off my act period ....

[OklaHemi]

i got a 27 and started college but money talks and i decided to work, no regrets. i didnt study either. its not that bad

[(S.M.R) 101]

^^ true that

[BMRbrnSNRbrd]

Well after all this talk I may as well let it be known here that, as of today, I am officially a student again. I enrolled at OSUOKC today. I'm putting myself through the Police Sciences program that will see me come out with a second degree as well as (and more importantly) my CLEET certification.

What does this mean for me? After a year or so I can go to my Major and give him my paperwork, within a couple weeks I'll be a full fledged Deputy Sheriff which means I will have finally entered law enforcement. What else does that mean? A raise of AT LEAST $12k a year...instantly. What will all my classes cost in the end? About $3600-$4800.

[OklaHemi]

congrats dave, that is awesome

[(S.M.R) 101]

Congrats dude That's awesome

[ramthis9501]

Congrats man

[BMRbrnSNRbrd]

[OklaHemi]

arent you glad you came back kyle? now you will have to plan on missing tornado season and earthquake season

[ramthis9501]

That was crazy!! It sounded like a train coming and then the whole house shook! I watched the chandelier in the living room shake around for about 20 seconds. Just heard that was a 5.2 on the rictor scale!

[(S.M.R) 101]

I was tripping balls dudes lol...

[ramthis9501]

[OklaHemi]

5.2? i guess i was expecting more for a 5.2... it mad noise but thankfully i didnt see anything more. all the pics on the wall are still straight

Gaige caught his first fish today and my phone was at the house. it was pretty damn big, well over a foot long catfish. he said i get that sucker while he was reeling it in. it was awesome

[ramthis9501]

Need to vent....

School needs to fall in a hole and die. My teachers need to quit their job and go pick up trash off of the side of the highway. I'm getting sick of 5 tests a damn week and failing them since one there's no time to study for them and two the teachers suck complete ass at what they do. I mean seriously why the hell do they want to make junior year hell for you? It's the time of the year for semester tests and of course I have to do all the difficult ones. And for those you have to pull everything you've learned through the entire year out of your ass for one test. Shit when are they going to realize that pretty much every single thing we learn in there isn't going to apply to our lives? For example: Geometry, we have to know every single thing there is to know about a congruent triangle. When in the hell will I ever need to know that again? I'm going in to the medical field to work on mediflight, pretty sure I dont need to know how to find what x equals when I don't give a shit. I'm just stressed to the absolute max right now because my brain is on overload. Christmas break just needs to get here now. Even better, the end of high school.

Rant over. Thanks for reading if you did, I just needed to get that off my chest. Actually fill a little better now.

i will play the role of the other side.. you are a 16 year old kid ranting about how tough school is. You don't realize yet how tough life will be, you are ranting to "mostly" grown adults that have to work their asses off with a terrible boss to be able to pay for rent/food/etc for themselves and their family sometimes they struggle with even those basic things. Most of us have graduated high school and i bet everyone will agree that it was the easiest or close to time of our lives. You need to have a little more respect for your teachers ... yes there are good ones and bad ones however most of them live very sub-par lives financially and have a drive to help you learn and yadda .. there are very few people who become a teacher "just because" most are there to help mold young minds and help you become a better person in society. In every class there are kids like you who complain about not using what they are learning in the real world... and for a lot of stuff they are absolutely right but it's what takes a high school diploma and if you plan on going to college get used to it you'll have to take all kinds of stuff that isn't related to your degree -- and the kicker.. you have to pay for it as well. You might not ever use geometry again but you will face obstacles every day in your life and part of high school is learning how to get through tough circumstances and become an adult bc you will certainly face harder things once you're in the "real world". You might take a look at your priorities and what exactly is going on bc for someone who doesn't have a lot of time to study for school you spend an awful lot of time on this forum, including during school time.

Cliff notes:
Delegate your time wiser, cut out stuff that isn't important even if it's temporary.
Don't take school lightly, you'll regret it later in life- most will anyways.
Don't be so hard on your teachers they are there bc they want to help and don't get a ton of benefits to do so.
Buckle up bc after high school it only gets harder.

[myoung84]

I'm going to have to agree with Matt on this one. I had the same thoughts you do when I was in high school, but now that I look back on it, those 4 years weren't really that bad. Bust ass in school and get good grades, it will make the rest of your life much easier.

[ramthis9501]

I know what your saying my and your right. The teachers I'm talking about really don't need to be doing what they're doing, trust me. I try to devote my time but studying one night for a test the next morning gets really old really quick. That's what we have to do all the time in anatomy. I guess I just had to get that out because I'm having a hard time with it right now. I'm going to try my best with these semester tests but it's gonna be tough. Thanks guys, I realize high school is easy as it gets, guess I'm going to have go get used to it...

[(S.M.R) 101]

Hang in there bud.. I know its a pain in the ass but to tell you the truth. As much as I hated school there are days I wish I was back there instead of working my ass off.. and you will find your boss in the future could be way more of a Dick then your teachers.. so just grit your teeth and get it done dude..

Nobody likes highschool or college when they are there... Ask those people that same question in a few years when they have been working and actually living on there own.. I'm not saying everyone would want to be back in them days but a good amount will.

[Matt]

I had a great time in high school and loved it lol guess I'm the oddity I was involved in all the extra stuff and votech so I had a full plate but I had a good time it was nice only having to work for gas/spending money my only bill till I moved out at 18 was my cell ... Ahh if I could only go back again lol

[ramthis9501]

That's another thing, I need to find a job lol Mowing over the summer just didn't cut it. I've applied at a few places here in Blanchard and of course haven't gotten a single call back. Probably need to go into Norman and try there to.

[BMRbrnSNRbrd]

You will impress the manager of any business, from a burger flipper to a CEO, by calling them and asking about an interview. Don't rely on them looking for you, call them, tell them you just wanted to insure that your application made it to their desk and would like to know when scheduling an interview would be a possibility.

[(S.M.R) 101]

^^ Very good strategy.. I agree 100% with Dave

[ramthis9501]

I actually handed my application to the manager at Ace Hardware and didnt get a call after she said they would. But I just found out that mazzios is hiring for delivery drivers. Might have to look into that.

[myoung84]

All good points, David is 100% correct. If you can, definitely try to hand the application into the manager. Also, be persistent and almost pushy to try and set up an interview, but stop just short of being annoying. Someone that calls every couple days to follow up on a job is way more likely to get called in for an interview than someone who drops an application at the counter and waits for a call back. You have to show them that you want the job.

I'm in sales and you have to be very persistent and follow up on every job. You can't be the annoying car salesman type that pisses them off, but you have to let them know you want their business and can deliver exactly what they want and make them comfortable with giving you a half million dollar purchase order. Job hunting is very similar. You are selling yourself to them, so to speak...

And save the Mazzios thing for a last resort. It will put a bunch of unneeded wear and tear on your truck and you will never get ahead with paying for gas and maintenance on your truck. Not to mention your cab will reek of pizza for the next 10 years. Not real popular with the ladies, (unless they're big girls who like to eat) NOM NOM NOM. :D

[ramthis9501]

Haha thanks guys, I went to mazzios and you have to be at least 18 to deliver but I still left an application so we'll see. I'll do what you guys said and give them a call in a couple days.

I had a job at jiffy lube when I was 16, flipping burgers aint too bad either. I think sonic will hire at 16.

I also hauled hay and worked at a couple of horse ranches cleaning stalls and grooming etc...actually the horse job was pretty cool, lots of little rich girls.

[BMRbrnSNRbrd]

Well the truck is now at the dealership for a few issues (all minor) and a couple recalls I never had done. I have to say...I hate driving that thing with stock programming! It feels like the truck weighs a ton more.
