So sweet, Poodle, Florida......


My councelor said to use this as a Mantra.
If you say it enough, its like being there.
Or so I have to say. The joke is, my councelor thinks Poodle is literal. Hahahahahhhaaaaaaaahhaa.

I did the forty thing recently as well. It's not all that bad.

...and be careful what you wish for...it can ALWAYS get worse. Think happy things! biggrin.gif biggrin.gif

Len I feel your pain, for me it was when I hit 45.
I cured my blues by buying a Donzi, now I just need to figure out what to do next year. Good luck and stay warm.

I’ve got the boredom fever too, just got back from a log cabin place call Real Log Homes that build kits that are pretty cool. biggrin.gif

The only bad thing about today is everywhere I go everyone keeps talking about the Patriots like they think they will make it all the way or something. I had a free ticket from my Ins. Dude offered to me yesterday but I turned it down because, well they are the Patriots and nothing will ever change that. You do the math, drive 20 minutes to Foxboro or stay at home and watch a bunch of zeros on a big screen and have FREE booze all night.

The noggin is still in rough shape though and biting the dog that bit me isn’t helping any,

MAY THIS BE THE BEST YEAR YET!

Hey, of course it could be worse... you could be turning 40 without a Donzi! I've only got nine months to prevent that situation!

I played hooky and cruised the North Georgia Mountains with the top down and heavy duty long johns around. FYI, windburn does not respond to aloe. Nor does frostbite. It was a blast and I finally got to see just how tightly the C5 'vette would stick to real curves. Lakes Chatuge, Burton and Rabun were mud puddles, but made ramp notes for summer launches.

Stole top secret fishing holes locations from a Bassmaster (or so he claimed). biggrin.gif Guess that means I'll have to buy yet another fishing license... in my case, it's a license to notkill. It's not fair paying for it every year and not harming nuttin. Wish the DNR dudes saw it my way. Saw lots of trout on the Tallulah River... seems the State of Georgia ran out of money to feed them, so did an unplanned release. I wonder if I could earmark my fishing license fee for the starving Georgia trout? Or start a 501c and use the funds to purchase a Sweet Sixteen to take food to the needy fish? Hmmh... where's that tree hugger bookmark....

Bunches,

Owen,
Is that one of those Yurt type of things? I just saw a show this weekend about building them and how they are a big hit out in the North West. Pretty cool how you can pack up and leave with your house.

I don't know about anyone else, but I sure could use more of Mike Miller's photographs of April or any of those other great looking models on a Donzi to brighten my day.

Owen needs SIX garages!!!The pic doesn't even include his 21GT recently purchased.
Owen also needs a shrink!FOUR BOATS?????One boat is enuf to disturb most peoples sanity!
Sorry-you guys whimpering about turning 40!Get SERIOUS!!!!I just turned SIXTY Dec 1st,2001-and had open heart surgery April 2001,gotta take 4 heart drugs,Prozac(great stuff)for "clinical depression"(I'm NOT depressed,dammit!),something else to go to sleep,and something else for a boogered knee(from pushing Donzi loud pedal).I still feel like 40,but reality cuts in if I have to run 100 yards or more or run a chainsaw for more than an hour.Hell,I had the time of my life when I was 40!Stay Horny-that's the answer. biggrin.gif tongue.gif biggrin.gif
