HOWARD’S DAILY CHRONICLE
NUMBER 30 VOL4
NOVEMBER 30TH 2007
WEATHER; COOL, LOW HUMIDITY, 67 DEGREES
26 MORE DAYS TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT TO GET THE MISSES.
I WORKED ON THE ’91 ACCLAIM MOST OF THE DAY BUT TO NO AVAIL, IT STILL HAS THE SAME PROBLEM WITH AN ADDED TWIST, NOW THE 4WAY BLINKERS FLASH ALL THE TIME WHEN THE BATTERY IS HOOKED UP. I TALKED TO TIM AND HE THINKS THE REMOTE STARTER SYSTEM HE INSTALLED HAS LOST ITS PROGRAM AND DOESN’T KNOW WHICH FUNCTION TO COMPLETE SO TOMORROW MOM AND I WILL ATTEMPT TO DE-PROGRAM AND RE-PROGRAM IT. MOM PULLED THE WHOLE MANUAL UP ON THE INTERNET AND IT TELLS HOW TO DO THIS. NOW, IF I CAN JUST FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS OR BETTER YET WILL MOM BE ABLE TO FOLLOW THEM, I’LL BE THE ONE WATCHING THE TURN SIGNALS AND TELLING MOM WHEN TO STOP AND GO ON TO ANOTHER SECTION. I HAVE A HARD TIME TRANSFERING WHAT I READ TO WHAT I’M SUPPOSED TO DO WITH IT.
I WAS GOING TO DO ALL THE OUTSIDE LIGHT TODAY BUT THE DAMN CAR HAS GOT TO BE FIXED, IF I WAS TO TAKE IT TO A SHOP I’M AFRAID THE LABOR BILL WOULD BE MORE THAN THE CARS WORTH. WE USED TO GET THIS KIND OF JOB IN WHEN WE HAD THE AUTO ELECTRIC BUSINESS AND I WOULD GIVE A PRICE AND DO MY BEST TO STAY WITHIN IT BUT SOMETIMES IT WOULD EAT OUR LUNCH TO STAY WITHIN THE ESTIMATE BUT WE DID. IF I COULD STILL GET UNDER DASH BOARD AND CRAWL AROUND CARS I KNOW I COULD FIX THIS PROBLEM BUT I JUST CAN’T DO IT ANYMORE AND IT REALLY UPSETS ME. SO, TOMORROW MOM AND I WILL SEE HOW MUCH WE LEARNED WHEN WE HAD THE BUSINESS. I CAN’T COUNT THE NUMBER OF TIMES I HAD TO HAVE MOM COME AND HELP ME DO A JOB I SHOULD HAVE BEEN ABLE TO DO LIKE THE NUT ON A VW GENERATOR, NO WAY I COULD GET MY BIG MIT BEHIND THE SHROUD BUT MOM COULD, OR LAY ON THE FLOOR BOARD AND WORK UP UNDER THE DASH REMOVING LIGHTS AND FINDING BURNED WIRES AND FUSES, SHE’S DONE IT ALL AND THEN ANSWER THE PHONE AND TROUBLE SHOT A PROBLEM A CUSTOMER HAD, OF COURSE SHE HEARD ME DO THAT AND IT HELPED HER. WHEN SHE’D TELL A CUSTOMER TO CHECK THE FUSE IN A LITTLE ACORN LOOKING THING IN THE WIRE BEHIND THE BATTERY ON G.M. PICK UPS TO SEE IF THE 4AMP FUSE WAS BLOWN AND ON THE OTHER SIDE BEHIND THE HEADLIGHT FOR THE SAME THING, IF THE FUSES ARE BLOWN THAT’S WHY YOUR AMP METER DOESN’T READ CHARGE OR DISCHARGE THEY DIDN’T BELIEVE HER SO SHE WOULD GET ME AND WHEN I TOLD THEM THE SAME THING THE NEXT TIME THEY CALLED THEY WOULD ASK FOR HER, NOT ME. WE WERE AND ARE A GOOD PAIR!
NOW TO THE PACKER/COWBOY GAME TONIGHT; I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THE SCORE WOULD HAVE BEEN IF FAVRE HADN’T GOT HURT IN THE 2ND QUARTER BUT I CAN’T TAKE ANYTHING AWAY FROM THEIR BACK UP, ARRON ROGERS, HE JUST DAMN NEAR BEAT THE COWBOYS, HE THREW FOR 209 YARDS AND ONE TOUCHDOWN AND ENGINEERED ANOTHER RUNNING TOUCHDOWN. IF HE WOULD HAVE HAD MORE TIME TO GO OVER TEAM PLAYS AND THE OTHER PLAYERS KNEW HIM AND HIS METHODS BETTER THEY COULD HAVE DONE IT. HE’S A COMER AND I WOULDN’T BE SURPRISED TO SEE GREEN BAY START USING HIM MORE AND GIVE FAVRE A LITTLE REST. HE (FAVRE) SAID IN THE POST GAME INTERVIEW HE HAS NO FEELING IN THE TWO OUTSIDE FINGERS OF HIS RIGHT HAND AND ALSO A LEFT SHOULDER SEPERATION AND HE’S 38 YEARS OLD AND DOESN’T HEAL AS FAST AS HE USED TO.
I CAN’T LEAVE TONY ROMO OUT OF THIS REPORT, HE THREW FOR 300 YARDS AND 4 TOUCHDOWNS AND 1 INTERCEPTION AND SOFAR HAS ALL THE COWBOY RECORDS WITH 4 GAMES AND TO PLAYOFFS TO GO. I HATE TO SAY IT BUT IF HE STAYS HEALTHY HE’LL START TO BREAK SOME OF FAVRE’S RECORDS. FAVRE ON THE OTHER HAND HAS BROKEN JUST ABOUT ALL THE OLD EXISTING RECORDS IN THE NFL/NFC AND IS SETTING NEW ONES IN EVERY GAME.
YOU KNOW, ONE THING I’VE NOTICED ABOUT THE TWO OF THEM, THEY’RE NOT BRAGGERTS AND THEY KNOW IT IS A TEAM EFFORT TO WIN. THEY ALSO RESPECT EACH OTHER AND THAT’S WHAT AMERICAN SPORTS IS ALL ABOUT. PEOPLE IN OTHER COUNTRIES CAN’T UNDERSTAND HOW AFTER A HARD FOUGHT FOOTBALL GAME THE CONTESTANTS GO TO MEET AND GREET EACH OTHER WITH HUGS, SLAP ON THE BUTT, HAND SHAKE AND A SLAP ON THE SHOULDER, THIS DRIVES THE FOREIGNERS CRAZY. AFTER A HARD FOUGHT CRICKET GAME THEY JUMP IN AND HELP THE FANS TEAR DOWN THE STADIUM THEN THEY GET INTO KNOCK DOWN DRAGOUT BRAWLS.
THAT’S “30”FOR THIS ISSUE.
THE NEXT TIME SOMEONE TRIES TO INSULT YOU, SMILE AND SHAKE YOUR HEAD YES, IT’LL DRIVE THEM UP THE WALL TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHY YOU’RE BEING SO CORDIAL!
HOWARD
