I ran a little barbecue/ burgers, and chicken wings, catering group. Named it after an old school country song about a truck driver that stopped at a place called Hambuger Dan.
I pulled into a roadhouse in Texas.......

Well, that's not creepy at all......


Okay, I'm over it. I'm a land surveyor. Back in the day before electronic distance meters were a thing, we'd measure distances by pulling a steel tape between points, one of the points being plumb underneath a transit (telescopy thing that measures angles for you non surveyor types) set up on a tripod. Every so often, a new guy or just someone who wasn't paying attention after a long day in the sun would set up the tripod with one leg being smack dab in line with the direction you were going to be measuring with the tape so that you'd have to break down the tripod and set it up again (which involves getting it plumb and level). That leg of the tripod was called the beer leg because the guy who set it up had to buy the beer that night for boofing everyones time.

Now tell me how you knew I was BL.

Do a TexAgs search of your handle "forever" and search for the term "edited"

That will also tell you that I used to be "Murphy MacManus" and "Remy LeBeau"

Y'know when you interview for a great new job...you should have a couple of questions to ask the interviewer?

Well, when it got a little quiet after about 20 mins into the interview and the other side of the table was looking around at each other, it was apparent that they'd heard enough.

They asked if I had any questions for them...I looked at each of them, paused and then confidently said: "When's lunch?"

Of course I got the job.

I go by A&A on my other sites, but when I set up my account here, it didn't like the ampersand, (ironic, no?). So I went with Double A.

The "A's" stand for the Aggies & Astros. Those are my favorite teams.

When I joined all the talk was about BMAs. Being the opposite, I thought my name was appropriate.

I'm tired of it and want a new one. Submit your best idea. Winner will receive a pack of gum and a pair of cool socks from me in the mail.

Mine is a hand-me-down user name from a family member. They weren't using it anymore and I liked it! Plus I really, really like news.

Ah, the once every two years thread.

19-year-old me thought i was being mysterious and cool by coming up with this name. Many years later, it's like a bad tattoo that you have to live with.

I swear I know nothing about celestial mechanics and what a true anomaly actually is

The best part is that there are so many episodes, you can rewatch episodes and not know how it's gonna end.
