sex position preference
Posted:Aug 9, 2007 7:21 pm

just wondering if as you have aged did your favorite position for sex change?

Why do you think it changed?

From what to what?

Do you prefer one position over another depending on how long you have been with a partner or the intention you have for the relationship?

I'm just curious

to receive an email in your NoStrings email. You see, I have been a member on this site for what seems like forever. Long before my first blog I was a gold member and yet never has an email come in from a lady asking me any questions or telling me anything about themselves trying to get my interest up in them.
I understand that women on this fun little site have quite the opposite problem. They get so overloaded with email that they get tired of reading all of it and just start ignoring it.

Interesting week at work so far. None of the components I need to assemble the 12 units I am suppose to build have come in so that part of my work isn't making much progress. Then yesterday I dug into a new pile of cabinet pieces fresh from the powder coater to find that the bases did not have the weld nuts welded on the bottom. This interferes with the ability to bolt the components into the case. Then I found that some of the pieces had been bent exactly opposite the direction they were to have been. Since pipes have to exit the unit thru the holes in this piece, being bent backwards meant that the holes were all in the wrong location. So today I went to the supplier and showed them the problem and they are going to fix ASAP. Until then, not much to put together in the shop.

Drove to Southern Iowa today for a leaking water pipe service call. Got there and found the tightening nut on a compression fitting had split across the threads. Never seen that happen before. The repair took less then 10 minutes but I got a 4 and a half hour road trip and company paid lunch out of it. lol.

it should be so difficult to find a chick that wants to have her pussy eaten. If a woman was offering blowjobs, the guys would be lining up for their turn. I've been looking to eat pussy and haven't had any women want to take me up on it.

So what gives ladies?

Watching the weather channel can make me homesick for the road. They put the big map of the US up and I see the names of places I use to travel through frequently and I couldn't help but wonder where I would be today if I had continued trucking. Also couldn't help wonder if I would ever see any of my favorite places again.

Hughesnet upgrade

I was looking into upgrading the speed of my Hughesnet internet connection and paying more for the speed so I could cam and chat better but there is a rumor that in August Hughes is going to upgrade some equipment and that will make the service I have as fast or faster than cable. Sure hope it is true cuz as it is, my service sucks. Hughes hasn't announced it, but the service man gave me a heads up.

Didn't go to work today because I already had over 40 hours in.
We are caught up on the old work, now it is time to start building more units for the next round of installations. The equipment will be going in to projects for the DNR, DOD, a community college, another home, and 3 units will go to somewhere in Kentucky.

So I'm just resting this weekend because next week the race will resume at a faster pace.

It is a busy time for me at work. I am still the only person that was called back from layoff. My former supervisor is still laid off and I'm not sure if he will come back when called. He is pretty upset with the upper management for not being able to give him a solid date to expect to return to work. He found another job. Same goes for the rest of the old crew. They have found other jobs and may be fed up with the company over the layoffs.
So without them I am the manufacturing crew, the installation crew, and a member of the engineering team.

The last couple of weeks has been spent finishing jobs that have been on the books for a few months and some service calls. I get some help from one of the office peeps but he should have more important things to do like getting bids submitted on new work so we can call back those still on layoff.

I had a bad month with my calf herd. I bought 13 holstein calves. They were doing fine for a couple of weeks then I introduced a corn feed to them. Could just be coincidence but a few days later some were to dizzy to stand up. I had the vet out a couple of times. He thought they ate too much corn and it hurt their digestive tract. I don't think they got that much as it is a limit feeder and I had it set so each calf would get about 1 pound of corn per day to suppliment the pasture. That is how I have fed beef calves for years. I guess holseins could be more delicate but I think it was a respiratory infection which he also said was present. The conclusion of the episode is that I lost 4 of the 13 to death loss and got a 300 dollar vet bill. So much for any profit on the acreage this year.

The big news around here is the Gorilla project being announced as an oil refinery. The proposed site in Union County is about 14 miles form here. That should be very good for the land values in the area of my home should the site be chosen. Somebody has to accept an oil refinery in their backyard and I don't see any reason for Siouxlanders to reject the huge economic boost that it would bring to the area.

Watching the latest attempt at Immigration reform fail was like Christmas for me. Not that I'm against a new immigration policy, but no amnesty. My preference for the problem is to
1. Secure the borders.
2. Send back any that are convicted of a felony. One strike in addition to being a border crasher and your out!
3. A time out of 5 to 10 years on immigration from anywhere in the world until those that are already here are better assimilated into the culture.

Unrelated to the above items, I wish at least one candidate for office would push for the Fair Tax ammendment. Getting the tax albatross off of the american people would be such an enormous gift to future generations of americans no matter where they come from or what they hope to achieve. We waste so much time, energy, and treasure on tax compliance and avoidance that would better be used to create new jobs, opportunities, and products.

Deferring college to serve

Last friday, my youngest announced that he has decided not to register for college classes next fall. Rather he will be going to Basic Training With the Marines.
I respect his decision to serve, but I had been encouraging him not to enlist until after he finished college. I think the young people should mature a little more and experience why the country is worth defending before they make such a potentially life altering decision.
Of course life as a marine will mature him at a much faster rate than life on a college campus.

I was called back to work. wooohooo, I'm on the payroll again, no more volunteering in order to finish outstanding projects.
There has been a shakeup, or should I say shakeout in the upper management. The business consultant/lawyer is now running the company and telling the owner how things are going to be done. I'm not sure the owner is very happy about it but I also don't think he is in a position to kick the business consultant out.
I'm not sure if I'm going to like the new management either.... some of the promises the owner made to us are now not likely to become reality. I may in the course of the next month decide to return to pulling the Ice Cream Wagon.

Sin Boldly friends.

weather I could work outside in.

Today it finally turned nice enough for me to want to be outside.
So I burnt some limbs that have been laying around a while along with some scrap wood.
I took the rain gutter off the east side of the house and fixed a place where facia where birds were actually starting to get into the attic and build a nest.
I sprayed some thistles and I put in 2 corner fence posts so I can subdivide a pasture.
I enjoyed having the company of my dog. He either trailed along, or layed nearby and watched the activity.
I did a little cleaning up of the shelves in the garage.
Wrote an old friend an email.
Talked to the company to see if they want me to come to work tomorrow.... they didn't get back to me, so I don't think I'll go in. I am volunteering after all.

Last week I oversaw the installation of some of our equipment and my system design in a high tech laundry operation. If they like the way it works, there is the possibility of additional sales to them.

Last saturday morning I hauled my bull calves to the neighbors and we used a bander to "steer them up". The nuts should drop to the ground in about 2 weeks.

One of our sons came home for easter weekend
Sunday morning I hit a deer with the car on the way in to services.

It is Palm sunday, the begining of Holy Week if you will.

To my NoStrings friends I say Sin Boldly. Christ's sacrifice is sufficient to cover the greatest of sins.

Still laid off, and still doing some work on a volunteer basis hoping to outlast this layoff. I truely do not want to go back to the ice cream wagon but I have emailed the owners of the trucking company and told them of my situation. They (dispite our differences of opinion on some matters) were quick to assure me I would be welcomed back even if for only a short time. Guess drivers are still in demand and hard to find.

I'm wondering, what did congress do about the Department of Transportations "Pilot" program to allow 100 mexican owned trucking companies to operate anywhere in the US? The plan doesn't limit the number of trucks the companies can have. Can you say "cheap labor". How long before an american trucking company buys a mexican trucking company and then sells all the trucks they own here to the company there and hires all mexican drivers? My guess is that at least one of our mega carriers already owns a small company there and has just been waiting for this deal to happen.

Anyway, I don't want to go back to driving because what will I do with my dog? It would be cruel to put him in a truck all day, I would hate the time it would take out of the day to care for him and He blows his double coat twice a year. Ewwwww what a mess!

On the desireable side, I miss seeing some of the places I use to go. Montana, Washington, Utah,Oregon, Texas, New Mexico, Nevada, Arizona, Wyoming, and even pain in the Ass California where I lost thousands of $$$$$$$ in fines over the years. I know those places are changing and I miss watching it.

Financially, I can't continue what is going on now. I would more than double my wages if I returned to the road.

OFF.
They laid off everyone in production today due to lagging sales.

I expect to be on unemployment for 2 to 6 weeks. How should I spend my time.

I've never been laid off before.

I could go back to my previous job and start hauling ice cream again but would it be fair to that employer to return if I only expected to stay for a short time? I think not.
