I might be slow, but I'm mostly accurate.....

The lawn is for Crow-kay, very period correct game. ;D ;D ;D

And don't worry 'bout rooms, we can just pitch tents on the lawn. ;D ;D

...and can have a camp fire or two.

Del, how many do you need to cook up a really good meal for us all?  ;D ;D

If you folks are serious, here's the situation:

One double bed and one single inside , plus two comfy recliners and a 6' couch that is great for naps (never spent a full night on it.)

Room on the floor for two or three more in sleeping bags or bed rolls.

Front lawn can be used for tents, but the back yard looks like Beirut ca 1980.  Lot of rocks and dirt.

Patio could be used for cots (maybe twenty if we crowd them in), but it's not very private and the neighbors' dogs will scold you all night long.

Two bathrooms with tubs and showers, plenty of hot water, but short on water pressure.

Gas range, microwave, and a large charcaol BBQ available for cooking and in a jam we could use the gas log in the fireplace.

One very friendly dog to help you relax is free with every guest (you have to share him.)

Parking up and down the street...I'll clear it with the neighbors.

Ontario International Airport is about a mile away, Greyhound is four miles, LAX is around 40 miles and John Wayne Airport is 60.  Don't know about trains, but can find out if y'all want to know.

No smoking in the house, but outside is up to you and the folks you're with.  California is a no smoking indoors state in any building with public access.

Motels within half mile, food markets about a mile, restaurants galore all over the valley.

Disneyland, Knott's Berry Farm, wineries, Fontana Raceway, Magic Mountain, all of San Diego's attractions, Century City, Rahauge's, and more all in a day's drive.

I'd almost bet that there will be a hlaf dozen matches that weekend within thirty miles of here.  We can find out and make a surprise raid.

Great fireworks shows all over.

And last, but not least, ME!

That shore is a nice offer, but what you don't know is that I growed up in Texas.  We might have differing ideas of "best"   ;)

With all the earlier talk about your yard, I would have expected something like the Augusta National Golf Club.  ;D ;D ;D ;D

Trinity, I got more genuine Mexicans within three miles of here than you got in the whole State of Texico.  You folks down there done tex-mexed everything until it's dang near unedible.  Sort of like Texas-yuppied it all up.

(Who says I don't know how to start a fight?  ;D ;D ;D  You throw a bottle into the crowd and sit back to watch the fun.)

I'm working on the back yard.  The Patio (at $15,000 dolllars the damn thing gets capitalized) and hot tub pad are GORGEOUS, but the grass still needs a LOT of work.  Rain and surgery put it on the back burner until yesterday.  I rebuilt my wheel barrow and moved some rock, but I got a long way to go.

Did he just say what I think he said.  Somebody tell me he didn't.  Somebody!?



Trinity, what prefers tex-mex food to dysentery!  ;D ;D ;D

Del says to tell Forty that there's better Mexican food in Lincoln than at Forty's place.


And what are you doing repairing a wheelbarrow, Forty-Fonzai? I thought you were allergic to that kind of work!

I'm allergic to any kind of WORK!  (Maynard G. Krebs is my hero.)

I'm more allergic to buying crap I don't need, so I fixed what I got.  That's why I pent $800 on a 10 year ols POS Crown Vic today.  It's got anotherr 150,000 miles in it someplace.

Have put 20,000 miles on an 82 Olds I bought from my uncle for $200 in Dec. of 2002.  I've put $150 aprox in parts not countin' gas, oil and a couple of used tires.  I pay $65 a year for license and $60 a year insurance for it.  I just drive it to work and around town other wise we drive Ritas car.  Do I get a cheapy award?   Them dumb kids at work tell me I don't have a back bumper, but they are wrong, it's under the back porch where I put it when it fell of, was stuck in the snow and we were pushing it, I hit the plastic fence and the bumper fell off. ::) ::)
