HOW THE HOSTESS COMPANY IS BEING SPLIT UP You may have heard that Hostess Bakery plants have shut down due to a workers' strike but you may not have heard how it was split up. The State Department hired all the Twinkies, the Secret Service hired all the Ho Ho's, the Generals are sleeping with the Cupcakes and the voters sent all the Ding Dongs to Congress. :rotf: :rotf:

Was going to jump in the shower this morning to get ready for church. Long story short noticed that I had a leak. Determined that it was coming from the roof which means I had another ice jam to take care of. Still makes me mad that the company I hired and paid good money to install my gutters did not do anything but hang them where the old ones were. If I wanted a crummy job I would have done it my self! Boy do I feel better now...

My sister's son has long been known to have an alcohol addiction problem and has even been trying to land a job in one of their local bars lately in Bozeman, MT. Well, he has some refection to do now as he applied for a job in the downtown area bar of "Boodles", but was never hired. That's good for him as someone else now, (who might have been opening up the bar in the morning,) disappeared when the whole place blew to bits from a natural gas leak: http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa167/hlaltimus/Bozemanexplosion.jpg Story link: http://www.montanasnewsstation.com/Global/category.asp?C=50432&nav=menu227_3

It is time for a update and that I have not kept you all abreast of what’s going on in our world. Linda and I are loving living in Las Vegas, the weather is fantastic and I ride the bike all the time. We ride with some really nice people and we both have bonded with them very well and have made many new friends. If you did not know Linda absolutely loves her new job at the VA and really has connected with her co-workers. We have sold the house in Minnesota (Finlay). The economy is tough all over but really tough out here. There are allot of jobs in the minimum wage range and allot of competition in the better paying fields . I have been hired at Mandalay Bay as a security officer (only took 14 months). So far I have not met anyone of importance yet but I have met some rappers and hip hop players. ( kinda cool) I get to see some real high rollers and we get access to see some really good shows through MGM so its not a bad gig I just cannot gamble on any of there property's. I figure it’s a good thing. Lol So with all that being said I am really excited about this opportunity and the position is a good opportunity and it is a job I might just really like. We have bought a new house and finally got moved in so the last 4 weeks have been kind of hectic. We just got the Internet hooked up with the phone and cable in. We have no TV yet and figure to buy one in a couple months. I want a 60 inch plasma but the NAVIGATOR keeps telling me to think smaller. We are both very happy about the move here and think it was a good decision. Even though we left some really good friends but it opens the door for some very nice visits. Now here are some things we have learned about living here in Vegas. 1.When you ride the bike out in July 07 make sure it is not record breaking temperatures. 2.When it rains it really does pour like pee out of a boot for 5 minutes. 3.The roads flood very fast and do not drive through it. 4.The roads become slick (VERY SLICK) like driving on black ice.(on 2 wheels it sucks) 5.It is a dry heat like opening an oven and sticking your head in it. 6.Make sure you have a job before coming out here. 7.Make sure you change cell to local number. (they will not call you otherwise) 8.Make sure you get a Nevada drivers license right away. ( they will not hire you without one) 9.There are lots of jobs for local established people. (not out of towner's) 10.Before your hired they climb up your butt with a microscope and really check you out. So things are starting to turn around for us and with all the above we are happy with the move. We want to have a VR maintenance day at some point when we get settled. Right now we are fixing the place up. The owner of the foreclosed property was a idiot/ He took stuff and broke walls like a little kid who did not get his way/ Blamed the bank for his misfortune. I have lost 2 homes and many jobs but never acted like this idiot did. But we did get a good price on the house in a great neighborhood. Its more home then we wanted but in 10 years maybe we will make enough to retire.LOL You all are the GREATEST bunch of scooter dudes and dudettes. Hope you all can make it this way at some point because we have a place for you to stay now …….......................................Ron
