PBJ Posted February 3, 2006 Report Share Posted February 3, 2006 Wow.. I just realizedI have to go get my tabs since my B-Day is sunday... Wonder why I haven't gotten my reminder from the DMV ... Guess I have lunch plans today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GRDadof3 Posted February 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2006 Here is another little nugget of brilliant advice. When you get a new sticker to put on your license plate, and you remove your license plate from your car to clean it off before you put the sticker on, make sure to remember to put your license plate back on your car. Don't, I repeat, DON'T just leave your license plate sitting on the roof of your car and get sidetracked. If you do, you'll find yourself walking down the street looking for it and wondering when it blew away. And then you'll find your license plate lying in the middle of a busy highway, and you'll have to dodge traffic to get it. Would I ever do something that stupid? Surely you jest. I missed this earlier. Between this and the copies dated 2005, you're on a roll Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have 2 swans.. they're marired I think that hang out in 1 of our ponds all winter. Never leave, pretty strange. Is dumb as it sounds, they got in a fight over the summer, and one hung out in 1 pond, and the other one hung out in the other pond all summer. Lovers quarrel I guess, kinda like sleeping on the couch. (And yes we keep track of these things around here) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GRGridGirl Posted February 3, 2006 Report Share Posted February 3, 2006 Wow.. I just realizedI have to go get my tabs since my B-Day is sunday... Wonder why I haven't gotten my reminder from the DMV ... Guess I have lunch plans today If you haven't left yet PBJ, I suggest the Sec. of State downtown, on the southeast side of the GRPD. I have been in and out of there in 15 minutes. Its not as busy as the others because there's no parking lot in front. I park two blocks away, through a quarter in the meter, and I still don't have to walk as far as the other ones hidden away in the malls. Oh and Happy Birthday! I owe you a shot...

Nah, I'll go the Hudsonville one on my way home (good excuse to HAVE to leave early ).. And if anyone wants, come down to McFadden's Saturday for the Birthday bash. I'll be there after the Bachelor Auction (probably around 10ish). If you wanna go, just say you're with Paul's Birthday Party, you'll get $3 well drinks, and $3 glasses of wine till midnight.. even if you don't come say hi I'll be the one in the black Tux with the very bright pink vest and tie Edited February 3, 2006 by PBJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your attire alone should raise the stakes - it takes a real man to wear pink - it takes real guts to wear HOT pink! Great cause, sounds like a fun time. Here's wishing you a very Happy Birthday.

Brilliant minds think alike Mike BTW: jrfromgr was banned, and so was jr4gr, and so was grpodcasts (all the same person). If you want to emulate someone who has another site but does not flaunt it, and also is a valued contributor here, be more like dbrok. You're OK too Rizzo.

Rizzo Posted February 4, 2006 Report Share Posted February 4, 2006 (edited) Maybe this is her responce to the pyramid format whats her face does when she posts responces? I think its a matter of hitting the return key or enter key when she feels like it? Kind of interesting, interesting indeed. I think it adds to the character of UP - GR. Dad: Thanks, I don't make money of my site or ideas, I don't need to advertise. 30,000 hits to my site in the last four days from no advertising except my signature... Interesting enough UP - GR only refered like 25 hits. No one uses my space for their photos, more gigs for me! 3200x3200 pixel renderings here we come!

mejane Posted February 4, 2006 Report Share Posted February 4, 2006 How odd - thanks for calling this to my attention! I think it's just habit that I hit the enter key so often - most likely the result of also writing poetry. Sorry if it has been annoying to read my columns/posts. I'll try to conform to the set standard of the forum in the future, but it won't be easy. Please forgive me in advance when I inadvertently wax poetic!

twoshort Posted February 6, 2006 Report Share Posted February 6, 2006 Anyone ever used Hotwire for airline tickets (not hotel)? I'm going to LA and they're about $50.00 cheaper, but you don't know when you'll land at your destination, you only know it's before midnight. I just wondered if anyone had any experience with it...

torgo Posted February 6, 2006 Report Share Posted February 6, 2006 (edited) Not hotwire, but I've used travelocity and like it for the most part, but you get to pick your exact flight. the only thing that sucks is they will say your flight is $250 but when you select it and continue a screen comes up saying "The price has changed. The new price for your flight is now $450." Edited February 6, 2006 by andy112129 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
