I hope you're OK.

I didn't know they did drug/alcohol tests in Europe. I read somewhere Europeans see that as intrusive.

I hope you're OK.

I was only out for thirty seconds or so.

Yikes! I hope you recuperated 100%.

I'm great thank you george thanks for asking

How are you?

Yes it's not really protocol but on certain jobs ( mainly government ) it's done.... It is intrusive in my opinion as what someone does in their own time is their own affair mate.

Plus it only shows if something is in your system and doesn't mean you are under the influence... So basically means nothing in truth.

I can understand the logic of course mate and especially being in construction.... One wrong move and you are someone else is dead

Just saw something on MSN about a man being punched in the face and falling down on the concrete and banging his head and ended up being taken off of life support and died. This happened in the UK and apparently he was polish and the group of guys that assaulted him were saying anti-Polish slurs.


Awful stuff. Feel bad for the guy's family. Ignorant disgusting behavior, makes me sick.

Earlier this week spent some time tooling around in a side by side off road vehicle. Fun, but I want a Jeep Wrangler.

A wrangler would be some fun. We don't have much here in the way of open land and that would be hilly and fun to test out the 4x4 functionality though.


I remember being a kid way back in the day and some guys I knew that were much older than me and we went hill climbing in a 4x4 and it was fun as hell, we about flipped the Bronco a couple of times, nothing like the thrill of grave injury or death to get the ol' blood pumping.

lol

What is it with all of you fainting and/or knocking yourselves unconscious? Be careful out there.

Yeah, well, I had blood-pumping excitement today, too. I took shelves out of the basement and put them in my garage. Yep. I live. Right. On. The. Edge.

Tell me how on earth do you become the DD when you aren't even AT the party? ������
One of the people from the party who were coming to pick you up, could have driven your Mom's car home for her.....

Years ago a local cab company in California, would send an extra driver on a call, to drive the car home, when the client was drinking & couldn't drive safely.
