I wish you would'nt use this as your FB page. Not everyone enjoys your "whacky" comments everyday. I miss KU_law, at least he kept it short.

RoeDapple 1 year, 3 months ago

I miss you too fluxy, it's been a while! If you want we could be facebook friends . . . I'm as boring there as I am whacky here.

RoeDapple 1 year, 3 months ago

"wouldn't" not would'nt. iliterate hater's. I seam to attrak them.

rockchalker52 1 year, 3 months ago

Everybody knows it's 'wacky', not 'whacky.' Could be 'wakky', I guess, but never with the 'h' unless you're really talking about whackin' somebody. Capish?
Now, people sometimes refer to the river south of town as the 'Wakkie' but pronounce it 'Walkie'. These things are always in flux, I suppose.

RoeDapple 1 year, 3 months ago

i thinkeded it wuz "wawkee" . . .

rantor 1 year, 3 months ago

Flux makes a good point. You could put pictures of all your hobbies, show your friends, play farmville. You'd be entertained for hours on end. Facebook has messaging. You can talk to your friends, stalk your enemies. It really would be a better fit for type of connecting.

RoeDapple 1 year, 3 months ago

Oh good! My peeps are in town, must be a convention! Glad to see you too rantor! Stalk? Not me but I do have one. It's okay though, when the haters are following me they aren't bothering those who let it get to them.

Let's see, who does that leave . . . ?

Andini 1 year, 3 months ago

Let me tell you this, the older you do get the more rules they're gonna try to get you to follow. You just gotta keep on livin' man, L-I-V-I-N.

Wooderson, is that you?
Well, all I'm saying is that I want to look back and say that I did I the best I could while I was stuck in this place. Had as much fun as I could while I was stuck in this place. Played as hard as I could while I was stuck in this place...

RoeDapple 1 year, 3 months ago

The first job I ever had was assembling bicycles. When I got caught up I was told to grab a broom and clean up. The job I retired from was as a driver for a major LTL freight company. If business was slow I was told to grab a broom and clean up.

Guess you could say I was swept away with my work . . .

Full-time beachcomber in the Caribbean, replete with metal detector. I'd find those Rolex watches that people lose all the time -it's true because I saw it on the internet.

I used to bowl with Glasgow, couldn't pick up a spare to save his life. If NRA don't like him , then NRA aint worth listening to. No better kind of folk than Phil.

RoeDapple 1 year, 3 months ago

Just checked. The property owners around me don't even like BBQ.

LadyJ 1 year, 3 months ago

Darn, looks like I missed some fun. That's my dream job, just having fun.

LadyJ 1 year, 3 months ago

Not that putting in a new kitchen floor isn't fun. I think Roe would agree with me, it's a great feeling, and very satisfying, to stand and look at something you have created.

RoeDapple 1 year, 3 months ago

Yup.

somedude20 1 year, 3 months ago

I would like to be a translator for Ozzy but I don't think that will happen so I will take my desire to work for the devil and become an IRS auditor

Maybe a photographer for Playboy. Get to see of them ladies come and go and get paid a fair amount of money to make them look better.

I think I will stick with still being Hollis's (Rara's) guitar tech, pay ain't great but the drugs are

At age 10 I began dreaming of being a truck driver. At 16 I got my first driving job on the hayfields around Baldwin. At 53 I retired from 37 years of nearly continuous driving jobs. Some good days and some bad but wouldn't trade a minute of it for anything else. As I have told others, I could have dreamed higher but not better. Few can say the same.
