Don't get me started on Harold and Kumar! Short story...

I worked at White Castle from November of 1999 through July of 2006. Out came Harold and Kumar go to White Castle. Cute... Then I joined the Army and became a military police corrections officer. First duty station? Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. A few months into the deployment... Harold and Kumar go to Guantanamo Bay! Are you freaking kidding me? I was really looking for Harold and Kumar to go to Fort Sill, Oklahoma or Fort Leavenworth, Kansas. Can't do them anymore. Not after "c*** meat sandwiches". It was just a little too far over the top for me.

The TV is LG brand. My old one was a JVC. The old one was a DLP style and the technology is a little old now. This TV is LED/LCD and I can search Google with it. Netflix is built right into the TV. It's kind of weird. Eventually I will get a lot bigger one. I love my gaming. The 3D thing, I will rarely use. It's all of the other features that sold me on the set. It was tied between this one with a 120 hz refresh rate and all of the apps. Or... The Sony with 240 hz refresh, but no apps. The Sony only had 2 HDMI inputs, so I went with this one.

We have a 46" samsung LED smart tv here. Its amazing how many features they crammed into it. Netflix we use the most on it, but i like controlling the tv from my smartphone

Plus its suppose to be 91 & Humid. So if it doesn't include A/C I'm not doing it. Too many toys inside to play with. My New phone, Our Kindle, and the PC and the 62 in the family room. Hope everyone has a great saturday. I'll check in later with all of you. Space I can't see you. Your all blury Stumpmi see if you can take some pic's of the car show in A.A.

What a day... I woke up this morning like a child on Christmas morning. Around noon I finished up all the paperwork and took home a 2011 Chevy Silverado LS. It has the vortec 4.8 and Im in love with it. I ended up keeping the Monte and I will probably sell it in a couple of months. I named him after my old F250, Marlo.

Never went to the auction, called up there and they had a reserve but couldn't tell me what it was, guy wasn't there yet. So, I figured if it had a reserve, it probably was too high for me...
