Hey again: Whats new in the world of Joe??
I just came back from a work trip to Norfolk, VA. The shipyard down there is the worst shipyard I have visited. NOT the base, the Metro Shipyard. Between all the dirt everywhere, and the inconsistant workers, we left early and rescheduling another trip to complete our work. Basically, they were not ready for us, so we need to come back. I cant get into details, so thats all for now.
Drexel is coming together. I need my financial aid stuff to kick in soon. I will be contacting them this week as to find out WTF is going on. I havent heard from my work to see if the schedule has been OKd yet, so that is also bothering me too.
IFL: Our fantasy football league is now drafted; highlights of my team include Trent green, E James, T Holt and my FTW pick: W Parker and C Rodgers. They are my make or break picks... lets see whats what. All the teams look good this year, so its who will respond to injuries the best that will take home the trophie that is on my speakers :D
WOW UPDATE: Im now at 149 Fire resistance; items include the Blazing Emblem, a cheep +10 FR ring, the Volcanic legs and Shoulders, and eventually a Libram of Resilliance, which will add +20 to my G-helm :). Found a cat cage for Nicole for a whopping 18GP last night on the AH. Devilsaur business is doing well, as I have made over 100gp in less than 2 weeks time..Onyxia is wednesday and a future MC raid is in the works. I am currently trying to up my rep with the T-Brohood for the Corehound Boots pattern and eventually the Corehound Belt (Both add the FR). An old face, LukeDuke, is now a sunder member and asked me to help him get the Black scales for some boots or armor. Not a problem as its my favorite saturday morning activity after the cat gets me up :P
HOME UPDATE: After installing the Thermostat, we are now looking at windows; I need to set up an estimate for home depot and Lowes; a co-worker told me about his carpenter and he does excellent work too. More to follow soon...
Havent played paintball this summer - between the different trips and stuff we have been taking and my funky knee, i went to the field a total of 2 times. I am a sad camper...gotta shoot something!
Pics to follow soon :D
Cheers!

Hey again... does anyone else reads this?
They are back - It took the Steelers about 2:25 minutes to run up the score 14-0 on the birds on the Monday night game. I am not too impressed with the offense and they will need to show me more to make me a believer that we can go to the big dance this year....At least our hold-out WR is back and will be willing to work a deal - now its on the Steelers to make him a good-paid WR that he is..
WOW UPDATE: Did MC again on Sunday night, and more Giantstalker pieces dropped - but went to other hunters.. oh well.. so it goes.I helped the next few bosses there and worked our way to MajorDomo before the instance crashed thanks to the 'Farmers'. These guys found a way to doup items and are doing it to sell on the AH at full price, then selling the gold made on internet sites. F-ers.Not only do they flood the game with an abundance of items, but also crash ALL the instance servers in the process. FINALLY - Blue did something today and hopefully its fixed.. (Crosses Fingers)
We installed a Thermostat (Digital finally) on Sunday, and were wow-ed at the age of the condo. The original wall (unpainted) was behind it. There must have been 6 coats of paint between the old mercury one and the current paint coat. It took an extra 2 hrs to re-paint about 4 coats before it looked decent enough to mount the new one. It works like a champ and now we have a timer and everything. Next up are the windows..
Fantasy Football - We are into our Football draft and the Ironman Football League is underway. We do an email draft and it works good - until someone doesnt forward all, reply all or just doesnt check thier email :P. My team now has 2 RBs, 2 WR and 1 QB. Im not sure whos gonna be left when it gets back to me, but I am hoping for a few favorites. I still need my token Steeler, so we will see whats what.
I will be on travel next week, but will try and update when I can - for those that care.. :P
Till the next time..

Mid summer heatwave
Well, its been an interesting week since we got back. Did major cleaning this weekend, with Nicole kickin ass in the bathroom and me between the living room and the bedrooms. I think i figured out why its so cold downstairs and warm upstairs - the vents (dumbass me,..) I almost closed the downstairs vents and opened the bedrooms ones and now our central air works better. The damm thing sounds like its running 24/7 so I starting shutting it off during the days that are ok outside.
WOW UPDATE: Did Molton Core raid with Sunder on Firday and got my first of the Giantstalker pieces (helm). Basically, it rocks..excellent AGL and STA stats, and BTW fire resist, so its the top helm on my guy now. Lost some excellent leggings in BRD last night to a shaman again(!!) and so its now my goal to keep questing for better legs. Made a tauren shaman and got him to level 9 in about 1-2 hours. Those guys are the World of Warcraft's best all around class - lets see: Walk on water (check), rise from the dead (check), reserect others from the dead (Check), heal the wounded (check), wear mail armor (check), and can use most weapons (check).. I made him a collector and will be sending my leather and herbs to Nicole and My other character. Nicole and I did well with her mage on Friday and she is now becoming a force to recon with. We almost finished off the STM area and will be moving to the 1K needles area soon. Shortly after that - Scarlet Monistary forever!!
I think we are going to the carnival, i mean the Jersey shore this weekend. I hope that we get to go somewhere else sometime.. STILL havent played paintball this summer - I was going to go yesterday, but between a late wakeup and my knee still sore from softball, I passed. BBQ has been going at least once a week with the heat that we have had out here - last week wasnt too bad, but this week coming looks like a killer: 90%+ humidity and 90degrees + from now till Thursday - IT SUCKS!!
PICTUES - yes we are terrible at pictures, but hopefully things well get better. I looked for my power cable this weekend and had no luck - i get another shot tonight, but am running out of ideas on where it might be :( If this fails, we might have to get an all-in-one and get it over with. As for printing pics, we got it figured out finally and Nicole has printed some good ones. My camera broke in CA, so this wednesday we drop it off at the camera place.
So it goes :)
