Tha Poo Poo Phone, Tha Poo Poooo Phone!

About five weeks ago, I was taking a dump in the toilet.  And a problem I had been ignoring finally got me.  Everytime I got off the pot, my personal cell phone holster would fall off in front of the toilet.  Well that day, it did not fall in front ot the toilet, it landed right into the toilet and into the poo(It was not solid >P).  I was able to get it out of toilet by pulling it out by the lanyard.  It was coated with, uh well, you know.  So I took the phone out and washed out the clip on holster with hose outside.  Then I&nb

Turning lead into gold!

I collect scrap to make extra money, as there is a lot of damage thanks to the hurricane and there aren't many customers who call apon my techinical services during the summertime.

It can be dirty, as some things can be wet, muddy, or plain jagged, so I tend to wear gloves when I need them. But this last Sunday, I found a strange sheet of mysterious material.

Soon we had very large hive develop this summer, much to our surprise.

I tried to chase it out, but it snapped it's tusks at me and refused to budge from under an old sink we had on the builing west end. I was attending long days at TSTC going to my welding classes, so I let it be as it wasn't really hurting anything. Though my dog Chrissy tried once or twice to attack it and was promptly chase away by the Javelina. And my cat Shrodie would made it angry when she got to close to it.
