    Default This should be your profile picture my friend!!



    This my friend should be your avatar!!! I was just messing with you about the name... LOL.... (

    I noticed you live in CA!! I just moved back 4 years ago FROM Modesto CA 95350!!! We lived there for 6 years, job related, my wife railroad, Trainmaster.
    We had a Blast in California, camping, motorcycle trips, the ocean you name it!!

    YOU my friend know the true meaning of happiness!! Its not in wealth, or things you own, its in Family, and Friends! What you said about your grandfather and uncle was heart warming, (not a good thing for iceman, but I will endure)!

    I think this song says it all,,, a gift from a good friend of mine, Barbara,,,, I think she lives in CA, also.

    Great...on the site for 1 week and I melted it's primary member.

    Yes, it's hard to have a Grandfather that isn't great. I think fathers have to do the necessary work of being stern and tough and raising "men"....but then by the time they get to be grandfathers...they get to truly enjoy their role and leave the pressure of "raising men" to their sons/son-in-laws. But that's just my theory.

    A good theory, I would say!! In fact, I would say you need a Hammer ball,,,, because you hit the NAIL, right on the head!! We were lucky,,, believe it or not, not all grandparents are great ones like we had!! One of mine was, and the other NOT! ((I always try to work bowling into all my threads,,,WHY???? I haven't a clue!! Is this a bowling site?? (

    Well....I am hoping to find a used Hammer Big Block Diesel for cheap one of these days...but other than that I'm not overly impressed with their products. My wish list has a couple Brunswick and a couple Storm balls on it.
