  1. Hope you are feeling better Rick. I'll call you this week. Out all day tomorrow to Hamilton shopping and taking Mom and Dad out for an early Christmas dinner.

    Today was slightly less painful?

     

    Crappy day though, I feel bad for Jenn and Karsten. Hes caught the flu and is miserable. And I cant help him.

     

    She finally got him to bed(its 4:21 am)

     

    Hopefully he feels better throughout the day

  2. Tevin farmer is an up and coming boxer from philly, hes 26 years old. If I remember correctly hes fought 29 times, lost 4. Hes got remarkable defensive skills/counterpunching but has lately garnered attention for chasing down opponents. Looks like a young floyd mayweather with more power.

     

    Duncan keith is a defenseman for the chicago blackhawks. Defensive player of the year(norris trophy winner)and a few stanley cup rings to go with it(3). He also has two olympic gold medals playing with team canada.

     

    Hes born in winnipeg but he grew up in fort frances. Hes a few years younger than me. I think hes 33 or 34.

  3. No, that was Tevin. We talk(ed) fairly often and now the guy has just let it all go to his head.

     

    All he used to do was keep quiet and train. Really down to earth too. He'd invite anyone in the area to run 6km with him whenever he went out.

     

    No hes got a squad around him and hes asking me If I would tell him if I slept with his women? Like seriously???

     

    And hes chain smoking cigarettes.

     

    Its sad to see really. Hes no doubt set to fight for a belt in 2017. But hes already on the downfall.

     

    If he just stayed humble and hungry he has the potential to be great.

     

    Im also friends with duncan keith, grew up with him and his older brother. Very classy guy! Brings the cup to fort frances. Jokes about us paying for drinks, then pays for it in barter for a fishing trip next year. And guess what? He has no crew. Takes pictures with everyone who asks and remembers my kids names. Even brought them some jerseys last year. My kids asked if he could sign them. He says I didnt bring you jerseys to hang on your wall kiddos, why sign something I excpect you to wear? Lol

     

    The guy is an awesome human, far from me as a kid dropping him upside down into a garbage bin at the fort frances arena around bantam.

  4. Its not shocking.

     

    When I watched how boxers live their life after they reach fame its rediculous. They spend like nothing ive ever seen before. Plus they roll in crews 20-30 deep and guess whos paying for everything?

     

    Look at fliyd mayweather though. Hes the exception. Smart enough to use his fame to invest and boy is he rollin in dough

     

    My favorite boxer right now is tevin farmer. Phenominal talent. But he is already showing that when he makes it big(which he will) is gonna be one of those washed up broke guys.

     

    I spoke with tevin on instagram a few days back and I told him to stay humble and be smart with his money. He told me hed fly me to philly so he could knock me out. Pretty classy guy. As much as I respect his boxing style, now I went from fan to hoping I get to watch him get his lil ghetto behind kicked

  5. Too funny Rick! I wish I could be that ambiguous in my job...Well mr. prez, my sales this week will be somewhere between $1,000 and $78,000...maybe. haha

    ???so true!

     

    If you apply this to your job its hilarious...

     

    I was surveying. Imagine how f ed up the project would be if I used this margin??? end up with a vertical road???

  6. I know he doesn't look his age Rick and I look older than I am these days. He works his buns off and I don't. Coincidence? Even if he only make a few lifts a day for me being away from my home is work enough for me. I have traveled the globe to sit in meetings and at first it was an adventure until it became work. I remember talking to someone on the phone from the airport and he asked me where I was. I had to ask the guy sitting next to me where we were. Travelling to exotic destinations and those not so exoctic like Gary Indiana wears thin fast. I always tell him if he enjoys it go until you don't anymore.

    Spot on brother!

  7. When I bought the truck with 22 kms on it the service guy said the worse thing you can do is wait until the fluids are warmed up. Drive it cold. It only takes 5 minutes to warm up driving down the road. When she finds out it is going to be over 700 bananas that is going towards a new kitchen next year.

     

    I just asked her, no way she wants one now. Thanks for all the help, considered the thread closed on my part. Discuss amongst yourselves.

     

    Wormdunker I paid 25K for my first home, that would be 3 with change left over. 80K for a freeking Ford truck is nuts in my books, sorry. No wonder you are still working in camps 6 to 8 weeks at a pop in your 70's.

    Pretty sure he still works because he likes his job lol.

     

    Plus, he looks a day over 50. Doods in great shape!!!
