  1. Go for it! I had it when I was on the rigs but canceled it when I quit. Now that we live in the mountains in the middle of nowhere and I am a courier I got another one. Plus you can listen to it on the web which is cool.

  2. All I want for Christmas is nothing. For the last 6 or 7 years its what I have been asking for. I hate how commericialized its become and want no part of it. But my folks keep sending me stuff. My bro just sent me a new Xbox 360 with web cam. But I would have rather donated the money to charity. Its not that I dont appreciate it. I dunno very frustrating time of year.

  3. I just hate how Xmas is all about going broke buying presents. All I want for Xmas is nothing. But my family persists and keeps buying presents for me. I keep telling them to send cash so I can send it to a charity.

  4. I went to my 10 year this summer. I almost didnt go but some friends convinced me. I hated school and never really achieved much. Life got better for me the day quit school. So it was kinda cool to go back and see everyone. Time is good to some and not to others. Some people change and some dont. I say go for it.

  8. Wow I am 29 years old and I watched the Godfather for the first time in my life. How I made it this long without seeing this epic movie I dont know. Best movie I have seen in a long time.

  12. Enjoy your own life without comparing it with that of another

    Have the courage to live, anyone can die

    What is the cause of most aviation accidents: Usually it is because someone does too much too soon, followed very quickly by too little too late

    Insisting on perfect safety is for people who don't have the balls to live in the real world

    "I have not ceased being fearful, but I have ceased to let fear control me. I have accepted fear as a part of life - specifically the fear of change, the fear of the unkown, and I have gone ahead despite the soundings in my heart that says: Turn back, you'll die if you venture too far."

    Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take but by the moments that take our breath away

  20. Wow jimmytavino to do that with kids is amazing. What I did was buy and sell houses not really for profit but to live in. I started at 21 and this is my forth house. I took advantage of the market in Alberta Canada. I also worked on the rigs for two years. I worked 30-35 days hitches with a week off. And I saved most of the money that I made. But the big kicker was my last house. I bought it and it doubled in less than a year so I sold it and moved to the mountains. Feels great!!!! Wake up everyday happy.

  21. Not to brag but paid cash for my house this year when we moved. We are completley debt free. Feels pretty good at 28. So I only work 5 hour days and so does my gf!

    We did leave civilization. We lived 40min to the nearest big city. Now we are 3 hours. Small mountain town. Love it.

  23. Hell ya! I have no mortgage, bills or car payements. I work 5-6 hour days, no weekends. I live in the mountains, ten minutes from a 3600' mountain that we paraglide off. My gf rocks, she made 14 skydives last year and one tandem paraglide this year. Next year she is going to solo. I wake up every day happy even when I have to work. It is a major goal in my life to be happy and stay happy.

  24. I was wondering the same thing. We have a 2 year old Rotty X that is a sweathart but a lot of work too. I really dont want to get one. I dedided to work with her for a a little longer first.
