Title: Overwhelmed
Post by: jdkmunch on November 19, 2009, 03:06:17 PM
 Man I have a lot of unfinished slot problems that I have to work on:  :208-

1.  The arm on the 6000 doesn't work - sometime the solinoid clicks but most of the time it doesn't
2.   setup the ticket printer for the 6000
3.   switch out the sticker controller on the S+
4.  fix my quote on the reel touch ticket printer (right now it gets cut off because it's too long)
5.  create custom topper insert for the S+
6.  replace my reel touch strips cause the first set got cut in the lamination machine  :81-

Which one do I work on first?   :208-

Or should I sit in my underwear drinking a beer on the couch?

Cut 6 pieces of paper label each one 1 though 6 and draw it out of a hat. :30-

Maybe put the last suggestion in the hat too!

Hah!!!

Here's a list:

1) Get 8 sold machines shopped and out the door.
2) Get 16 more machines shopped, videoed and advertised.
3) Finish work on a little project with you.
4) Finish work on a power supply project with someone else.
5) Get an overseas shipping quote together, working with a broker.
6) Handle 7 miscellaneous parts orders.
7) Hand deliver 4 sold machines in 4 different directions.
8) Business operations, accounting, stock, etc.

Oh yeah, I am still an Architect during the day:

9) Get the El Paso Restaurant done.
10) Get the Vista Center nursing home.
11) Get the Golden Hunan Restaurant done.
12)  Get the Loreal retail shop done.
13) Get the residential additions done- 3 of them.


14) Feed the cats, take out the trash, hug my wife, and "clean up my mess".

Now hurry up and finish your stuff, hop in the car and get down here....I need help!!!  :208-

Dude, if I lived closer, I would help. I already commute 85 miles each way, every day to and from work 400 each way is too much

Jim you made me fee good!

I have nothing to do compared to you.

I still have to rake 37 bags of leaves before thanksgiving,
carpet the new hallway to my casino,
taste test my wife's new brine recipe for a turkey to make it doesn't taste like cat.  :79-

but these are all side fun things aside from my job.

You should try my trick....just leave them in the lawn and when the December winter winds come....they just blow into the neighbors yard.

Actually I just hired another NLG member.  4 days of brutal, slave labor in trade for a perfect shopped round top.

What is scary about this..... is that you KNOW the taste of CAT and can discern the difference......  :208-

Jim, I'm heading to Ohio for the Holidays next month.
Want me to shop out some machines?
or do the plan review for the new nursing home?   :7-

I don't have much CAD experience, but I have a big red pen and can review for code violations. :79-

All that I have to add is that your guys' lists are as depressing as mine..... I like the last idea quoted above!!!

I am going to lay on the couch in my boxers, and use the rf keyboard and mouse to look at NLG posts on the 50" Plasma up on the wall, too bad I have no booze! :8- :8- :8-

I say: "Why put off today what you can do tomorrow!!!" :89- :71- :89-

I am sure that reality will kick in in about an hour or so! :208- :208- :208-

How many more posts do I have to go before list time???  :99- :79- :103-

Unfortunately, they don't list the nose, palate and finish. Sooo, is it fruity, peaty, smokey?? Inquiring scotch hounds want to know!  :199- :140- :89- :91-


<Add> I found it at Bevmo for slightly less (http://www.bevmo.com/Shop/ProductDetail.aspx?D=glenlivet&Ntx=mode%2bmatchall&Dx=mode%2bmatchall&Ntk=All&Nty=1&Ntt=glenlivet&N=0&ProductID=22887) and they have a description.

16 years in first filled American oak casks. The palate is seductively sweet, oaky, and slightly spicy. Vivid malt flavors of malt, honey, nutmeg and toffee dazzle the taste buds.

What happened?

Stat, this stuff has to be sampled to be believed... there's not many Scotches I cut with water, but it really brings out subtle flavors in this one that would be missed otherwise. Just a bit, though, not too much!

We need another smiley:

I've found that the smoky scotches benefit from a bit of water. The key that I learned is to use only filtered water, NOT tap water. I've sampled several scotches straight up and with just a bit of water and found that in many cases the taste and finish are quite different, and both are worth exploring. It depends on the scotch as to which I prefer. However, I tend to prefer the lighter fruity/floral scotches, so I usually drink them straight up.

My last purchase and current "selection" is Cragganmore 1992 Distiller's Edition (https://www.whiskyshopusa.com/store/detail.aspx?ID=868) and I am very partial to it. However, there are so many other single malts out there that I haven't tried yet that I could spend years without repeating one.

<PS> Due to technical difficulties, I have been tasked with trying to get your latest emoticon into our smiley set. :79- Please stand by... :50- :149- :47-
