Made a desicion last night that may take a few of you by surprise...

...I'm now clanless, due to some political and managerial reasons.

but I now feel like a new world is open to me, so if anyone on this game wants a selfish W/Mo or a level 39 on WoW, contact me!

Wow, is everyone switching guilds? Good luck on your search Omega.

Congrats, pwnd! I'm still looking for a Razorstone.


King Cake update: I made one, but I tried a new recipe and it came out really bready, not soft like it's supposed to. Oh well, it still tastes good.

Crying. I'm quiting in May or earlier. This job blows. I don't even have a weekend anymore. I LOVE how they act like they control YOUR time. @^@# them.

This cake is Mardi Gras cake . It's more like a big cinnamon roll.

I might have to start working construction too for some extra money for the Mrs. Seeing as how I'm not exactly built for physical labor this job may end up literally killing me.

XoO is the biggest pushover guild in the game. Them and Black Rose Gaming. They may seem good with their massive amounts of members, guild of the week, and community stuff... but they are really just pushovers.

But good job anyway. A win is a win.

You will amaze yourself at what you CAN do. I worked plenty of sh!t jobs when I was younger. I remember working in a Cement factory in Tampa Florida in 1973. I was 17 years old and we hitch-hiked from Mich to Fla that spring.

It was gruling work. It was super hot & humid. The cement dust would get in your hair...real fun washing that out. We got that job through "ManPower". A temp service for $2.00/hr...everyone else was getting 1.65/hr through those services at that time.....and most of the laborors were drunks...so to have two young bucks they were willing to pay us a little more.

They at the Cement plant tested us the first day. They had us unload a train boxcar loaded with 98 lbs of raw cement. They were 10 stacks high and I can't remember how many actual bags of this stuff was in there.

Well the first day doing this me and my Michigan buddy took 9 hours to unload it. They were not happy...we told them we have to get use to the damn heat & humidity. (it was 105 degrees in the shade that week..that I do remember)

The next day it took 8 hours....The "bosses" quietly nodded their heads...

The third day we were having lunch (You LIVED for LUNCH) and the big bosses came by and asked us how much longer. They really were testing us to see if we could handle it.... Well my buddy and I looked at each other and laughed...then we said look in the boxcar....we are done. We did it in 4.5 hours. The "Bosses'" jaws dropped... They then hired us outright on the spot. We were getting like $5.5/hr now...instead of $2.00/hr. That was good money in 1973!

The point is I was in the best shape of my life then. I was tanned...built like a Greek God. (it was the 1970's...no HIV/AIDS) Me and my friend were already in decent shape...we were both Wrestlers on a State Championship team in H.S. But after that summer we rocked and it felt good. So go do that construction work....work hard at it...keep a good additude. You will look back someday and say to yourself...wow..I was one tough,strong dude! These are YOUR glory years....make the most of them.

EDIT: BTW: that was a great summer....it was the summer that Floyd's Dark side of the Moon was released. That is still one of my most favorite albums (yes Albums, they were on vinyl then) of all time to this day.

No, "I" made $2.00/hr...the Drunks made $1.65/hr. Minimum wage back then was $1.65/hr.
