I know it's been a while, and none of you probably even remember me.  I can remember most of you like Kyle (ohgood) Buddha, and Kerry just to name a few.  Anyway, I have sold my bike to James Clark (screen name Clarkekent on here).  He had the bike shipped up to Washington from Mississippi, so I would venture to say that he is pretty excited about getting it!  He is already a member here on the forums, and I think he has posted once.  I would love it if you guys could show him the same friendliness as you did me.  He is a pretty nice guy and seems really eager to learn to work on and ride his new bike.  I think he has already been in touch with Buddha about getting work done on a head.  I will still be around lurking in the shadows.  I've just had a ton of stuff going on lately and haven't really had the time to do much of anything.  I'm currently working one full time job, one part time job, and trying to get my computer/electronics repair business off the ground.  I just wanted to let you guys know how things were and why you haven't seen me in the forums lately.  I think James will be a good addition to the little "family" here.  Please try and make him feel as welcome as I felt.  I wish you all well.  I'll check in from time to time.  If any of you need to contact me, you can just send a message on here and I will get an e-mail.  Thank you for all of your help.  I know I asked MANY, MANY stupid and redundant questions, so thank you for putting up with me!

Bike in need of some work, interrupted by a sudden increase in family caused by murder - - we ain't so short-memoried as all that. You've got a tough row and you're hoeing it, nothing to be ashamed of there.

Good luck with all you have on your plate, sir. 

DoD, man, you don't even know the half of it!  Get this.  He is still out on bond and still has custody of their kids!  HOW F#@&*D up is that!  Then I find out that the site I work at is closing on Jan 31, 2009.....so I start looking for another job, you know, so I can be ahead of the curve on this thing.   Wife comes home a month ago and has been laid off.    I start searching even more desperately for a job.  Finally lined up an interview with the DeSoto County Sheriff's Department for a spot as a patrolman.  The day before my interview I get a phone call from my dad.  My Uncle apparently decided to approach his cheating wife's boyfriend in front of his apartment with a .40 cal.......He lands himself in DeSoto COUNTY JAIL THE DAY BEFORE MY INTERVIEW FOR MURDER!!!!!!  OMFG!!!!!!  That would've looked really, really great.  You see my uncle's name is William R. Pierce.....My name is William M. Pierce.  You can bet your ass that I'll be waiting a little while before going in for that interview.  Everyone in the country has been calling my wife telling her how sorry they are about what I did!  Most of my damn clients that I do work for thought it was me as well, and my business has slowed down to a snail's pace.  I need to write a damn book.  Maybe no-one in my family can f%$k that up too badly.  At least it would be an amusing story!  Alas, we're still in the new house and are still making it on just my salary.  I'm planning on converting the old house into office space for my electronics repair business instead of renting or buying another place.  I must've really done some f%&ked up shaZam! when I was younger for life to be treating me like this!    I'm almost to the point to where I can actually begin to think that things can't get much worse, but I'm afraid if I really start to think that way, they will.  My wife and I are back in church after a short hiatus.  We need the emotional support they give to us.  I hope you all are doing alright and life is treating you well.  Wish me, err.... us well!

The other day I was thinking about you and wondering how things were working out. I'm glad you checked in! It was nice to hear from you again. 

Dam dude...You have really had it super bad. I hope life starts treating you and your family better. Like I always say...It can't rain forever.

Jeppy

Oh, I'm sure things will eventually get better!  Thanks Berto.  I just don't really like coming on here just to tell you guys about my problems.  It kinda makes me into a whiner.....  I can't stand whiners.  But when you need help, you need help!  I'll try to stay in touch a little better than I have for the last few months.   

I just went back into computer/networking on my own again too... and I used to own a computer/electronics store in the mall and in town...  Now is NOT the time to do that w/ the economy... I work IT out of the house and make a decent income.  If you need any help with the ins and outs Ill be happy to help. I can also send some work your way... goto www.onforce.com sign up as a provider I currently get anwhere from 5-10 work orders a week though that company. most pay AWESOME!  Im talkin $200 for 2 hrs of work at times... They dispatch for 100's of IT co.s.. and there are many other companies out there like that. sometimes I dispatch my own calls back out and still make $$$  I dont even have to go

They keep me busy

man that is rough. job changes are always hard on mamma, (we guys just Buddha Loves You and moan more, but they can't stand it for us) and all the other stuff can't be good for the relationship/family.

chin up, do ya best, and my latest favorite saying "Let the loose end drag".

you know a many more good redneck sayings

best of luck to ya with all the stress. sounds like you're having a taste of our 2001.

Hey lewismug, it doesn't sound like whining on this end! Stop by for the love you get here, and then do what ya gotta do the rest of the time. You are a brave man! Maybe you can rent that extra house if necessary. Hey, if you'd gone into the police force now, maybe something worse would have happened, cops get shot at.   

We'll keep a light on for you.

go for the interview anyway. , ( seriously), they would sy WTF? , and prolly say meh, , and see the "difference"
between your name, and his

Scott,  OnForce.com is the part time job I am referring to!  I love doing work for them.  Since I am so close to Memphis, I get quite a few work orders routed to me.  I've averaged it out since I started with them and I average around $2,300.00 worth of work orders routed to me each month.  Now, it's safe to say that since I am still working a full time job, I can't accept them all, but I get my fair share!  Trying to divide my time up between my f/t, onforce, my personal repair business, and my family has been difficult to say the least.  I know I need to make as much $$ as possible just to stay afloat, but I know I need to spend time with my family.  I just NEVER want my children to have to take a cold shower or get dressed for school in the dark like I did on several occasions when my parents couldn't keep the bills paid.  I will be damned!  They deserve so much better than that, and I will do everything in my power to make sure they stay comfortable.  My wife has been extremely understanding as well.  Monday night I have to be in Memphis from 8:00 to midnight for a rollout that Sprint is doing.  We had dinner planned for that night.  I took the job, but she knows we need the extra $$.  She's even thinking of signing up on onforce as well.  If she were signed up, then we both could've taken one of these sprint jobs for Monday night and doubled the $.  I haven't heard of any other websites like onforce, so please send me links of any other you know of please!  Here's my profile on onforce:  https://www.onforce.com/?action=pro_view&id=86308&display=profile&identifier=&no_form=

Damn, I'm sorry for putting this in the wrong part of the forum!  My mistake.  I know it should be in odds n ends.  Can someone move it for me so I don't get yelled at?  It's really nice to hear from all of you again.  I have missed talking to you guys a lot more than I though I did!  Kyle, you remind me so much of me.......you're as country as corn flakes.
