Well once again, its been quite a while since last posting. Im not gonna apologize though, Ive been doing enough of that.

I need to find the last 11 episodes of Fullmetal Alchemist. Im looking hard, but its coming along slowly.

The puppy is growing slowly, about a pound in the last month. He got some booster shots today, and has been groggy, and sore all day. Its ok though, its for the best.

My grandma is moving in with my uncle in Indiana, and the house is being sold to family members I wish would just move to Montana and fall into the Rockies. I meant every word, I despise the fact that those people are taking over my grandparents house. I wont go into the details, so dont ask.

Work has been going as well as it can I guess, I just cant wait for my first summer where I know I dont have to work.

I promise Ill be back tomorrow, with something more.

Take care
John

New Surprise Coming Soon!!!
my dear friends, it has been far too long. Not a whole lot new going on, just taking care of my new puppy. I did find out that he is only 10 weeks old, about 2 1/2 months. Other than that just the daily grind of driving the school bus.

Baseball is starting soon, so Im excited to see if the Sox can do as well as their World Champion performance last season.

Onto the anime, almost done watching the first half of Full Metal Alchemist that I downloaded. Im gonna put it onto DVD, delete it, and then get the second half. Gotta borrow the Naruto and One Piece from my brother and copy his DVDs.

Just everyone, take care and Ill try to stop by again real soon

Well I mentioned that this time there would be pictures.

My new puppy Coal!

Just such a spark plug, full of energy, and small, warm, furry, and loving.

There is just something about this dog, everyone falls in love with him when they see him. He looks at you with the eyes, puppy dogs would fall for his puppy dog eyes.

Mom came home with the third Inuyasha movie, I just downloaded the first 26 episodes of Fullmetal Alchemist and the February issue of Shonen Jump. So anime is good for now.

Take care, and later

hey everybody, my mom just got home from louisiana last night, along with my new dog Coal.

He is very tiny, very full of energy, and I am already falling in love with him. Now these small dogs arent my favorite, if I had my choice.
I most likely would have gotten a lab, malamute, or someting in that size range.

The bad news is I dont have fresh batteries for my camera, so a pic is a couple of days off O_o

So next time hopefully, there will be a picture of my new puppy.

Sorry about not posting yesterday even though I said I would. I came home from work and immediately went to bed.

so I decided to tell you another tale of one of my fishing adventures.

I was 10, in 4th grade, and it was my first house boat vacation with my dad. Along for the fun was my brother Eric, and Dads friends Rick, Jodi, and David.

Well, on one particular day Rick, who is like an uncle to me, caught a gar

These gar dont taste well, and are really a pain in the ass to deal with in genereal. They also have a lot of sharp teeth. So we decided to have a good ol time with him.

David had something special in his posession. A stick of dynamite!! This was no ordinary stick of explosives, this one had a water proof wick. We duck tape the boom log to the toothy bastard and release him gently back into the water. I wonder if you know where this story is going?

When all of sudden, like he knew what was gonna happen to him, he stopped, turned around and made a B-line right for the boat!!!

Do you remember in Star Trek when they got hit my enemy fire, how the ship shook and everyone went flying across the screen?

That is what we felt like when that fish went under our houseboat, BLEW UP, and the rocked that little bay, and our ears, for what seemed like hours. We laughed like hell all night.

When we awoke the next morning, there were little
pieces of gar everywhere over the outside of the boat. In the little boat that comes with the house boat, we found his spinal column, along with the head attached. Im telling you, we were cleaning up gar chunklets for the rest of the trip.

I have another tale to tell of this trip, that is for another day.

See you later

hey guys, whats happening? since there is nothing really new going on, ill regail you of a tail from my days as a youth ^_^.

We were in 8th grade, my brother and myself, and were about to embark on our bi-annual houseboat vacation. With our dads van packed, Dads friend Rick, his son Ryan, and the 3 of us piled in and went on down the road.

About 1 and 1/2 hours down the road, we were on the South Side of Chicago. It was about 11:30 pm, because we wanted to get to Kentucky at around 5:30 AM to load our houseboat and get the fishing started.

Well on the highway right next to Comiskey Park, (Home of the White Sox),We hear a loud crack and then the sound of steel scraping pavement at 60 MPH.

We thought that it was the muffler, but turns out that it was the drive shaft. Ill explain to those who dont know about vehicles, on a rear wheel drive car/van/truck, a drive shaft is the component that allows the rear tires to push the car and make it go down the road. Now keep in mind that it is 11:30 at night and we now cannot move, we coast up the exit ramp, stop right next to the ball park and call a tow truck. We wait until 4:30 AM before the truck shows up.

When the garage opens in the morning, they tell us "first in line when your part shows up"

Well its not until 11:30 in the morning before the new driveshaft shows up, we then wait until 1 in the afternoon.

The van back in working order, we get back on the road and proceed to make the rest of the 9 hour drive. We made it in a grand total of 18 hours or something like that.



If you have read this entire story, good for you, if not, I wasnt expecting you to anyway.

take it easy

Well, I said that I would be back if there was anything new this weekend, and I have some good news.

I just saved a bunch of money on car insurance by switching to Geiko.

JK, I dont have geiko.
But I do have a new puppy, a 1/2 daschund and 1/2 chihuaua(sp) Hes almost all black with like white socks and white spot on his chin. Im gonna name him Coal as in charcoal.

My mom has him in Louisiana and will be bringing him home next weekend, I cant wait to meet him. I really wasnt expecting a dog so soon. I was gonna get one around my birthday, but she surprised me.

If I can get a photo before he comes home, Ill post it. Other than that Ill put one up when he gets home.

Sit.....Stay.....

I decided to change the theme, not that Captain Hitsugaya was uncool all of the sudden, I just came up with another good one to look at for awhile

If anything interesting happens, Ill definately let all of you know.

Until the sun rises
