This is a story about
A Fly, a Fish, a Bear
A Hunter, a Mouse and a Cat.
There is a moral to this story.....
A Fly, a Fish, a Bear
A Hunter, a Mouse and a Cat.
There is a moral to this story.....
In the dead of summer a fly was resting among leaves beside a stream.
The hot, dry fly said to no one in particular,
'Gosh...if I go down three inches
I will feel the mist
From the water and I will be refreshed.'
There was a fish in the water thinking,
There was a bear on the shore thinking,
'Gosh...if that fly goes down three inches
That fish will jump for the fly...
And I will grab the fish!!'
It also happened that a hunter was farther up the bank
Of the lake preparing to eat a cheese sandwich.....
'Gosh,' he thought, 'if that fly goes down three inches...
'Gosh,' he thought, 'if that fly goes down three inches...
And that fish leaps for it...
That bear will expose himself and grab for the fish.
I'll shoot the bear and have a proper lunch.'
Now, you probably think this is
enough activity on one river bank,
but I can tell you there's more....
A wee mouse by the hunter's foot was thinking,
'Gosh, if that fly goes down three inches...
And that fish jumps for that fly..
And that bear grabs for that fish...
The dumb hunter will shoot the bear
And drop his cheese sandwich.'
A cat lurking in the bushes took in this scene and thought,
(as was fashionable to do on the banks of
this particular river around lunch time)
'Gosh...if that fly goes down three inches..
And that fish jumps for that fly
And that bear grabs for that fish
And that hunter shoots that bear..
And that mouse makes off with the cheese sandwich .
Then I can have mouse for lunch.'
The poor fly is finally so hot and so dry that he
heads down for the cooling mist of the water.
The fish swallows the fly...
The bear grabs the fish..
The hunter shoots the bear..
The mouse grabs the cheese sandwich...
The cat jumps for the mouse..
The mouse ducks...
The cat falls into the water and drowns.
NOW, The Moral Of The Story...
Whenever a fly goes down three inches,
Some *****'s gonna be in serious danger.
Didn'tsee that one coming, did you?

That's gotta suck!! The fix is a lightweight battery, lightweight k-member/a-arms, and lightweight radiator support. 
No it was my dad's money, but I ordered it.

so I got a lecture about what it takes to be a CPA... here's a brief bit
in the next 2 years of school, I have to squeeze in about 3 years worth of class
next summer (btwn junior and senior year) I have to start studying for my GMAT
before senior year, take GMAT
Fall of senior year, apply to graduate school
spring of senior year, graduate school interviews
graduate school for a full year
then a year of understudy with a company for extended education
then take the 4 part CPA exam...no part of which has over a 50% pass rate
FML
haha, there better be some money waiting!

Pesronally I can't stand accounting. I keep our books. And I keep them quite well. Each March our accountant has very little extra to do because of my work throughout the year. All I can say is thank goodness for Quickbooks and the computer.

Our former secretary's husband was a partner in a firm. He was in charge of the auditing department. He worked 12 months year. The other guys worked like crazy from January to April. But according to him the fasttrack at his firm was through the auditng side. It had a steady stream of work and alot of people would stay away from it and stick to the tax accounting side of things. He's the second lArgest shareholder in that firm after only 15 years. He was an oilfield worker who lost some fingers in an accident. The company fired him and instead of suing he and his wife put him through school to be a CPA. Now his son is a CPA in Austin with a large firm.

quickbooks may be fine, but I can assure you an accountant will do a better job, just because that's what they (we) do. I'm sure I could build a deck onto my house...but I'd come to you guys, because you know what you're doing, and have the tools for it. Our knowledge comes from (continued...40 hrs/yr) education, and our tools are the experience and knowledge studied and gained. as for the quickbooks, it's a pretty simple info system, but an accountant may be able to find/create you a better system for keeping the books. I know you have quite a bit to your business(es), but it seems that there's not much to keep up with, relative to other companies, which is good for you! I wanna check out the company when I come through there. Maybe I'll be able to figure you out a better way
accounting is definately not for everyone...in fact, most people hate it. I happen to like that. I do bust my butt trying to keep up, and it gets difficult at times, but that's why we get paid pretty well. I dont like when people think "oh you're going to be a bookkeeper" when I tell them my major. No offense to any bookkeepers, they're wonderful people, lol, but it's kind of an insult. Accountants are the ones that make all the decisions, take the responsibility...they set up the system, and instruct the bookkeeper on how to use the system. Quickbooks is a bookkeeper...the team that created the software was the accountants.
I could go on for a while, but hell, you guys prolly arent reading this boring stuff now

I'll make the 5th.
The front bumpers of my cars have seen better days, specially the GTs case due to the badly sagged front springs, I can't drive it over some places where the Mazda can, and the Protege is lowered about 1.5".Thanks!
I seriously hate you.
I had a feeling something would come of that.
This was my second day.
I've never had a first day just for fun.
We've mostly just gone over the syllabus and general info. 4 out of my 5 classes got out at least twenty minutes early.
My notch was $750, and I've put about 7k into it. My mom's SUV was 30k+. Guess who gets the garage.

Trucks are meant to be treated as trucks, not to the extent of complete abandonment, but you get the idea 
Or another option Keep a few empty bottles around like say you stuck some where no lue but nobody can see you pee in a bottle cap & toss ? just don't leave it in a cargo van in a bottle that would assume that to be the correct color, here's the story, I had to use a cargo truck and while waiting I really had to go & no time to run a half mile what to do just in the back and fill er up ! Preimium too lol then I get home Nathan wants to help ok hey day this yours yup I wasn't looking he had cracked it and sniff sniff OMG you didn't.
