    When I saw the small pic, thought I was looking at an Egg disaster.  Finally realized I was looking at an assembly.

    Steal away. In fact, you should read the book. It's full of good quotes.

    @Cen_Tex- La Jolla road trip...  Dang-I'm impressed that the community elders let you in.  If you have to work in "the land of fruits and nuts" then you are certainly in a great place.  Safe travels and have fun-if you have time, venture down to the Old Town Mexican Cafe in San Diego-best bar margaritas I have had and the carnitas are tops!
    Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win.  Life is too short for light/lite beer!  Seems I'm livin in a transitional period.

    La Jolla on my own tomorrow and Del Mar CC for customer golf/cocktails on Monday. Good work if you can get it, although I could do without the 5 am wake up on Sunday AM. That cuts in to the Woodford time tonight.........oh who am I even kidding with that? Time to sleep when I'm dead.

    Thanks for the tips.Lunch at Old Town it is. Carnitas and Margies for Centex tomorrow.

    Whenever I tell my wife, "i'll sleep when im dead" she gets so scared that she calls friends for support. It usually is the beginning of lots of stuff getting smashed.

    @travisstrick-I vaguely recall those days-and yes, it is the only way to live until the body "declares victory" and you get routed in another direction-seemingly without notice!

    @centex another good spot is in San Diego. There is a fish market and fish taco place called Blue Water Grill- awesome food from a local spot. Parking is a little bit of a pain but not too far from airport or if you like burgers give Hodad's a try. In la jolla if you want a nicer meal go to George's (food downstairs is better)- Californian style food but it is really good

    Thanks. I'll be rambling all over today so I'm sure I'll see many of these spots. Appreciate the tips.
